After taking her first steps at the Conservatory, this young shoot who grew up in Essonne, between suburbs and countryside, began to tweak her first melodies with a little software installed on her mobile phone. Along with her communications studies, she posted her covers and mash-ups on her Facebook page and created a community of fans, seduced by her freshness. On the last day of her exams, Eugenie signed a contract with Universal.

Puis danse
Eugénie Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Une image souvent trop sage
sans un mot je m'efface
On m'prend de haut sans prendre de gants ma confiance en suspend
C'est comme une bouteille à la mer
qui n'arrive à personne
Un loin périple en solitaire
Tout ça me désarçonne

Danse
Puis danse
Danse
Puis danse
Danse
Puis danse
Danse
Puis danse

Je m'incline sur la colline tant de troubles m'agitent
C'est indécent comme ça m'descend et m'abîme lentement
C'est comme une bouteille à la mer, qui n'arrive à personne

Un loin périple en solitaire
Tout ça me désarçonne

Danse
Puis danse
Danse
Puis danse
Danse
Puis danse
Danse
Puis danse

Si tu entendais les cris sourds, qui résonnaient tout au fond de moi, au fond de moi
Je danse sur le bruit de tambours
Je ne suis plus la même qu'autre fois même qu'autre fois

Danse danse danse
Puis puis puis danse

Overall Meaning

In this song, Eugénie speaks to feeling invisible and unimportant to others around her. She describes herself as an image that is too safe and causing her to blend in with the background. Eugénie feels that people look down on her without showing consideration for her feelings or thoughts, leaving her confidence suspended. It is as if she is a message in a bottle, lost at sea without ever reaching anyone. She is unsettled by her solitary journey and the despair that comes with it.

The chorus of the song, "dance, then dance," reflects Eugénie's inner desire to break free from this feeling of emptiness and confusion. She acknowledges the troubles that she experiences and the emotions that cause her to feel as if she is falling apart. Still, she uses dance as a way to escape and forget about her troubles. The song ends with her dancing to the beat of the drums, claiming that she is no more the same as she used to be. This song is an expression of finding oneself and breaking free from the feelings of isolation.
