Weepers Circus
Describing the Weepers Circus is a very perilous exercise. It’s simply impossible to categorize them. Their creations have gone in lots of different directions as the years had gone by.
They started as a medieval rock band and evolved into a fabulous and genuine band with a great bunch of different musical influences that makes it so unique.
To understand what the Weepers Circus is, you need to catch the train of their music, jump in it, and hold it tight, because you’ll be taken in lots of new places.

To understand what the Weepers Circus is, you need to catch the train of their music, jump in it, and hold it tight, because you’ll be taken in lots of new places. You’ll discover a whole new world of colours, emotions and feelings.
With their last album called “La monstrueuse parade” they invite you to discover or rediscover the atmosphere of the Tod Browning’s movie “Freaks” (from 1932).
The first two songs (“Seul”, “La dignité”) are quite rock and give a dynamic tone to the record.
Then the atmosphere changes and you get wrap in a dress of smooth as the first note of the song “L’oiseau de Paradis” comes to your ears. This warm and lovely atmosphere last during the next two songs called “Janvier” and “En rêve”.
You are taken away from your reverie by the amazing voice of the French artist Olivia Ruiz, who has joined the Circus on the song “Sans vous aimer”. This song gives a new energy and opens the doors on a new picture, jazzier and lighter.
First there is the song called “La fille et le loup” that is a kind of caricature of the fairy Little red riding hood. With this song, the Weepers Circus shows you that you can be great artists, with a real and deep universe and a true talent, without taking yourself seriously. It’s an evidence of their sense of humour!
The next 2 songs called “Quelqu’un” and “La dernière pluie” and the duet with Isabelle Lux “Tu perds ton temps” keep the same energy, but have deeper meanings. Even if the lyrics are full of emotions, and sometimes of sadness, these songs make you feel like Charlie Chaplin when he was singing in the rain!
The song called “La parole perdue” is a perfect transition that drives you from the sweetness of the song called “Larme” to the liveliness and keenness of “Ca passe”.
Then comes the song called “L’une des nôtres” directly inspired by the Tod Browning’ movie from 1932 (“Freaks”). This song is very strong and the brasses give it a darker and deeper dimension.
And finally, our five weepers give you the coup de grace with their last song “Le monstre”. If you’ve been strong enough to restrain your tears during the listening of the record, this song will manage to draw tears from you!
When the listening is over, you get this strange feeling of having been knocked out by someone. In a little less than one hour, you’ve gone through so many different emotions that you hardly know where you are left now the music has been turn off!
You need to be warned: Their music is a drug, and you can easily get addicted!! But don’t worry, this kind of drug is very healthy!

Weepers Circus Lyrics
Les dragons de vertu n'en prennent pas ombrage,
Si j'avais eu l'honneur de commander aù bord,
A bord du Titanic quand il a fait naufrage,
J'aurais crié:"Les femm's adultères d'abord!"
Ne jetez pas la pierre à la femme adultère,
Je suis derrière ...
Car, pour combler les vœux, calmer la fievre ardente
Du pauvre solitaire et qui n'est pas de bois,
Nulle n'est comparable à l'epouse inconstante.
Femmes de chefs de gar', c'est vous la fleur des bois.
Ne jetez pas la pierre à la femme adultère,
Je suis derrière...
Quant à vous, messeigneurs, aimez à votre guise,
En ce qui me concerne, ayant un jour compris
Qu'une femme adultère est plus qu'une autre exquise,
Je cherche mon bonheur à l'ombre des maris.
Ne jetez pas la pierre à la femme adultère,
Je suis derrière...
A l'ombre des maris mais, cela va sans dire,
Pas n'importe lesquels, je les tri', les choisis.
Si madame Dupont, d'aventure, m'attire,
Il faut que, par surcroit, Dupont me plaise aussi!
Ne jetez pas la pierre à la femme adultère,
Je suis derrière...
Il convient que le bougre ait une bonne poire
Sinon, me ravisant, je détale à grands pas,
Car je suis difficile et me refuse à boire
Dans le verr; d'un monsieur qui ne me revient pas.
Ne jetez pas la pierre à la femme adultère,
Je suis derrière...
Ils sont loins mes débuts ou, manquant de pratique,
Sur des femmes de flics je mis mon dévolu.
Je n'étais pas encore ouvert à l'esthétique.
Cette faute de gout je ne la commets plus.
Ne jetez pas la pierre à la femme adultère,
Je suis derrière...
Oui, je suis tatillon, pointilleux, mais j'estime
Que le mari doit être un gentleman complet,
Car on finit tous deux par devenir intimes
A force, à force de se passer le relais
Ne jetez pas la pierre à la femme adultère,
Je suis derrière...
Mais si l'on tombe, hélas! sur des maris infames,
Certains sont si courtois, si bons si chaleureux,
Que, même apres avoir cessé d'aimer leur femme,
On fait encore semblant uniquement pour eux.
Ne jetez pas la pierre à la femme adultère,
Je suis derrière...
C'est mon cas ces temps-ci, je suis triste, malade,
Quand je dois faire honneur à certaine pecore.
Mais, son mari et moi, c'est Oreste et Pylade,
Et, pour garder l'ami, je la cajole encore.
Ne jetez pas la pierre à la femme adultère,
Je suis derrière...
Non contente de me dé plaire, elle me trompe,
Et les jours ou, furieux, voulant tout mettre à bas
Je cri:"La coupe est pleine, il est temps que je rompe!"
Le mari me suppli':"Non ne me quittez pas!"
Ne jetez pas la pierre à la femme adultère,
Je suis derrière...
Et je reste, et, tous deux, ensemble on se flagorne.
Moi, je lui dis:"C'est vous mon cocu préféré."
Il me réplique alors:"Entre toutes mes cornes,
Celles que je vous dois, mon cher, me sont sacrées."
Ne jetez pas la pierre à la femme adultère,
Je suis derrière...
Et je reste et, parfois, lorsque cette pimbeche
S'attarde en compagni' de son nouvel amant,
Que la nurse est sorti', le mari à la peche,
C'est moi, pauvre de moi! qui garde les enfants.
Ne jetez pas la pierre à la femme adultère.

A mes oreilles cette album est une pure merveille Certaines des reprise de cet album son pour moi encore mieux que les VO le roi des con, par noir désir et les passante par Lofofora sont géniale
Ronan Verhulst
il y a aussi les lofo.... merci d'avance de les citer.
Weepers Circus
Ils sont cités !

Elle est où la mélodie originale ? Non parce que selon moi y a un minimum à respecter sur une mélodie lorsqu'on fait une reprise, parce que là pour le coup ils ont simplement fait une nouvelle chanson en reprenant JUSTE les PAROLES de Brassens… C'est tout !
SomKit99
salut à vous... Autant je respecte la démarche sur la volonté instrumentaliste avec l'arrangement et le vocal mais ce que je regrette c est une forme d 'agressivité dans l interprétation. Ce morceau demande de la fluidité et l essentiel est dans le texte. Difficile de lui donner une autre couleur...
cati mini
Ah ah ah vous devriez aller écouter la version punk des « Brassens not dead « 🤣

SomKit99 Au contraire, moi j'aime ce côté 'agressif' ou plutôt un peu en colère. Ca donne une autre dimension au texte et offre un nouveau niveau de lecture. Plus qu'une plainte envers des femmes qui resteraient hors de portée (du plaisir et de l'abandon), l'homme a l'air furieux contre sa propre impuissance à la rendre heureuse...
