Heavily influenced by American rock & roll, Mitchell (who went solo in 1963) has often recorded outside France, at first in London, but later in Memphis and Nashville, Tennessee. Guitarist Jimmy Page and drummer Bob Graham were among the British session musicians who regularly supported him in London.
Jolie Melodie
Eddy Mitchell Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nous regardions les sapins verts dans le bois endormi
Je me souviens des nuits entières où nous étions réunis
Et nous chantions à perdre haleine, notre jolie mélodie
Jolie mélodie qu'mon cœur aimait tant
Jolie mélodie perdue dans le temps
Tous les oiseaux, à leur manière, chantaient notre mélodie
Jolie mélodie qu'mon cœur aimait tant
Jolie mélodie perdue dans le temps
Il y a très longtemps, naguère, un jour, tu es partie
En emportant mes joies, mes peines et ma jolie mélodie, ma mélodie.
The lyrics of Eddy Mitchell's song Jolie Melodie reminisce about the memories of the past with a sense of wistfulness and longing. The singer recalls the winter evenings spent with the person they loved, filled with boredom and wandering in the sleepy wood as they admired the green pines. They also recollect the moments spent together, singing their hearts out in unison to their beautiful melody. However, time has taken its toll, and the melody is now lost in a distant memory.
The second verse talks about the time when winter had long gone, and the birds sang to their unique tune, reminding them of the melody they once shared. The last verse brings in a sense of sorrow as the person the singer loved left, taking with them their joys, sorrows, and the beloved melody that was once their own.
Overall, the song brings forth the emotions of nostalgia, yearning, and heartbreak for a long-gone melody that once was an integral part of the singer's life.

Je me souviens des soirs d'hiver qui reflétaient l'ennui
I remember the winter evenings that reflected boredom
Nous regardions les sapins verts dans le bois endormi
We watched the green fir trees in the sleeping forest
Je me souviens des nuits entières où nous étions réunis
I remember the whole nights when we were together
Et nous chantions à perdre haleine, notre jolie mélodie
And we sang our pretty melody until we were out of breath
Jolie mélodie qu'mon cœur aimait tant
Pretty melody that my heart loved so much
Jolie mélodie perdue dans le temps
Pretty melody lost in time
Te souviens-tu lorsque l'hiver, très loin, était parti ?
Do you remember when the distant winter had gone?
Tous les oiseaux, à leur manière, chantaient notre mélodie
All the birds, in their own way, sang our melody
Il y a très longtemps, naguère, un jour, tu es partie
A long time ago, one day, you left
En emportant mes joies, mes peines et ma jolie mélodie, ma mélodie.
Taking away my joys, my sorrows, and my pretty melody, my melody.
