In 2005, Camille released Le fil. This is a concept album, built on one note (a B) that starts at the beginning of the album and stops at its end. All the songs of the album are constructed on the voice of Camille with only one instrument (double-bass, and sometimes a keyboard).
Camille's third studio album Music Hole, released in March 2008, shows a key turn in her career: it is mostly sung in English.

Elle S'en Va
Camille Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Comme la chambre est sombre
Ce matin
Dans l’immeuble il est tôt
Elle met son manteau
Puis elle sort
Elle descend le boulevard
Elle s’en va
Le conducteur du car
Allume pour elle ses phares
Et sourit
La campagne défile
Elle s’éloigne de la ville
Elle est bien
Elle roule vers nulle part
Elle n’a plus de mémoire
Elle est perdue dans un songe
Un grand vide la ronge
Elle s’en va
Sous une pluie d ‘orage
A l’arrêt de la plage
Elle descend
Pieds nus dans le sable
Elle regarde d’un air vague
L’océan pendant un bref instant
Elle pense à ses enfants
Des images lui reviennent
Comme un film à l’ancienne
Puis plus rien
The opening lines of Camille's song "Elle S'en Va" describe a woman getting up early in the morning and leaving her dark room. She puts on her coat and heads out into the city, which is still asleep at this hour. As she walks down the boulevard, a bus driver lights his headlights for her and smiles. She leaves the city behind and enters the countryside, with no particular destination in mind. However, she seems to suffer from some form of memory loss or mental disconnect, as she feels lost and adrift in a dreamlike state.
As the woman continues her journey, the song takes on a more surreal and atmospheric tone. She arrives at a stormy beach, where she gets off the bus and walks along the shore barefoot. She thinks of her children and experiences flashbacks of her past, but these memories quickly fade away. In the end, she is left with nothing but emptiness and a sense of detachment.
Taken as a whole, "Elle S'en Va" is a haunting exploration of mental fragmentation and existential angst. The woman's journey is both literal and metaphysical, as she travels through both physical and psychological realms. The song is also notable for its minimalist approach, with sparse instrumentation and ethereal vocals creating a sense of otherworldliness and disconnection.

Keep calm and carry on
Ma mère Alzheimer à l'époque de ce premier album, et cette chanson là, qui m'a donné les larmes, puis le courage, de la laisser partir. Une chanson ? c'est presque rien une chanson, le pain a la même fonction tous les jours, et puis y'a des mardi 14, des dimanches 7, et des jeudis 23, où ça smashe. Le pain a du sens, en plus d'avoir du goût.

this is haunting. le dernier fois que je l'ai ecouté, je n'ai compris pas le français. je pensais que c'était belle. mais aujourd'hui, mon dieu. c'est vraiment plus belle, et élégiaque.
