Here's his bio on the Moshi Moshi Records site:
"Emerging electro wunderkid Breakbot crafts party tunes. Big ones. Following in the footsteps of French electro duo Justice, Parisian Thibaut Berland aka Breakbot has mastered the art of melting together all the best elements of dance, electro and hip hop with skill and precision. And a laptop.
Born in 1981, Thibaut was immersed in the sights and sounds of the subsequent decade, and remained appropriately pulled between his love of animation graphics/comics, and music. He chose neither one clear
path, nor another. Possessing a degree in computer graphics, and having created his first animation short film co-directed with two friends, Thibaut now makes music videos, commercials and such. By day. By night however, he cooks up choice cut electronic music, experimenting with beats, layers, keyboards, vocals, and Daft Punk-esque get-yo-funk-on basslines."

One Out of Two
Breakbot Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And in it, I am just a machine
And only she has the potion that can give back emotion
To the meaningless thing I'm becoming
She's every image that could ever be seen
She's in the air, if you know what I mean
Singing a song that has to be sung
Only you
Can make one out of two
After all that we've been through
You keep on giving me a reason
To see love through your eyes
You can make one out of two
After all that we've been through
You keep on giving me a reason
To see love through your eyes
I've been planning a scheme
Ever since I was 17
To build my home in your nation
To enter your station
Where the people can feel as one
Sometimes I wish that it was only a dream
But I am just a machine
And only you have the potion that can give back emotion
To the meaningless thing I've become
So go (Hey Now)
Only you
Can make one out of two
After all that we've been through
You keep on giving me a reason
To see love through your eyes
You can make one out of two
After all that we've been through
You keep on giving me a reason
To see love through your eyes
To see love through your eyes
To see love through your eyes
The song "One Out Of Two" by Breakbot is a soulful, uplifting track that explores the transformative power of love. The lyrics describe the singer's dream where he is just a machine, a meaningless thing becoming nothing more than a collection of wires and circuits without the emotion and love of his significant other. The only one who can make him feel human again is the woman he loves, who has the potion to bring back his emotion. The singer is planning a scheme to build his home in his lover's nation, where the people can feel as one. He acknowledges that it will not be easy, but he knows that she is the only one who can make one out of two, bring back his humanity, and give him a reason to see love through her eyes.
Line by Line Meaning
I've been having a dream
I've been envisioning something hopeful.
And in it, I am just a machine
But I'm feeling robotic and emotionless.
And only she has the potion that can give back emotion
Only one person has the power to restore my feelings.
To the meaningless thing I'm becoming
To the empty and unfeeling thing I'm turning into.
She's every image that could ever be seen
She represents every ideal image in existence.
She's in the air, if you know what I mean
She's omnipresent, if you catch my drift.
And I know that it will not be easy
I'm aware that it won't be a cakewalk.
Singing a song that has to be sung
Performing a task that must be done.
Only you
You, and only you.
Can make one out of two
Can merge two entities into one.
After all that we've been through
Despite all the difficulties we've encountered in the past.
You keep on giving me a reason
You continue to give me cause.
To see love through your eyes
To perceive love through your perspective.
I've been planning a scheme
I've been devising a plan.
Ever since I was 17
Since I was young.
To build my home in your nation
To make myself comfortable in your world.
To enter your station
To access your status.
Where the people can feel as one
Where everyone can feel united.
Sometimes I wish that it was only a dream
Occasionally, I desire that it was just a figment of my imagination.
But I am just a machine
But I'm nothing more than a mechanized entity.
And only you have the potion that can give back emotion
And you, and only you, are capable of restoring my feelings.
To the meaningless thing I've become
To the empty and unfeeling being I've transformed into.
So go (Hey Now)
Proceed on your path.
To see love through your eyes
To perceive love through your point of view.
To see love through your eyes
To perceive love through your perspective.

Only you

After all that we've been through
You keep on giving me a reason
To see love through your eyes
You can make one out of two
After all that we've been through
You keep on giving me a reason
To see love through your eyes

He tenido un sueño
Y en él soy solo una máquina
Y solo ella tiene la posión que puede devolver esta emoción
A lo que me estoy transformando sin sentido
Ella es toda imágen que alguna vez pude soñar
¡Ella está en el aire! Si sabes a lo que me refiero...
Sé que no será fácil
¡Cantar una canción que hable sobre Ella!
Sólo Tú
Puedes hacer de los dos uno solo
Después de todo lo que hemos vivido
Tu sigues dandome una razón
Para ver el AMOR en tus ojos
¡Tu!, puedes hacer de los dos uno solo
Después de todo lo que hemos vivido
Tu sigues dandome una razón
Para ver el AMOR en tus ojos
He estado planeando esto
Desde que tengo 17
Quería construir mi hogar en tu nación
Y quedarme en tu estación
Donde pudieramos sentirnos como una sola persona
A veces me gustaría que todo fuera solo un sueño
Pero soy solo como una máquina
Y sólo tú tienes la posión que puede devolverme esa emoción
Me estoy transformando sin sentido
Así que
Sólo Tú
Puedes hacer de los dos uno solo
Después de todo lo que hemos vivido
Tu sigues dandome una razón
Para ver el AMOR en tus ojos
Para ti Didi 😌😊

I remember the day I discovered this song. It was the happiest day of my life. It was a sunny day of summer, I visited my grandpa and we went to our favorite restaurant; I was going to see my ex the next day; school was quite easy those days. I had no worries, just living the moment. This song reminds me those good old days, I miss them so much. Thank you, Thibaut & Irfane. <3 You made an absolute masterpiece.

This song, especially the album version, sounds like a 90's family sitcom theme. Even the title of the song fits the name of what a sitcom could be. It's wonderful.

The last one minute of this song with the guitar solo (not in the video) is absolutely perfect. This IS the finest breakbot song I've ever heard.

Good to hear a quality electronic musician who isn't obsessed with loudness.

I really wish these two would drop a full album together.
