Jil… Initiales de Jil Is Lucky et prénom d’un jeune artiste folk de 25 ans
Jil n’a que 7 ans lorsqu’il jette ses premiers accords sur une vieille guitare cassée.
Sa mère ne se doute pas que quelques années plus tard (à 12 ans) il accompagnera à la basse son grand frère dans des bars, toussant sur ses premières cigarettes et se planquant derrière l’ampli pour échapper aux contrôles de police.
C’est en voyageant que Jil va se découvrir et rencontrer au détour des rues de Prague, New York, Berlin ou Sidi Bel Abbès ceux qui l’accompagneront : The Memphis deput(i)es.
The Wanderer, premier titre du groupe marque la naissance officielle de Jil Is Lucky.
Après la sortie d’un maxi début 2008 qui connaît un beau succès d’estime, Jil et ses acolytes sortent leur premier album le 16 mars 2009.
Les influences de Jil, tout le monde les devine, mais tout l’art du chanteur réside en la manière de les célébrer. En écoutant Jil Is Lucky, on se surprendra à voir Léonard Cohen dansant ivre au son des cuivres de la Soul endiablée d’Otis Redding ; ou encore les Beach Boys et Jonathan Richman se livrant à un Ipod Battle sans merci dans un bar Antifolk du ghetto de Varsovie.
On ne sort jamais vraiment indemne d’une rencontre avec Jil Is Lucky, et les vrais chanceux, c’est nous.
Hovering Machine
Jil Is Lucky Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
of our relationship
Time has made the pictures turn in yellow
And I want you to know
I want you to know where I’ve been
I want you to know what I’ve seen
While my hovering machine
was flying me down
I wonder if you ever know
Back to the times when we used to try
It turns it all to this
Back on the pillow when we used to lie
You want to know
You want to know where I’ve been
You want to know what I’ve seen
While my hovering machine
was flying me down
I wonder if you ever know
The song "Hovering Machine" by Jil Is Lucky explores the desire for openness and transparency within a relationship. The singer wants to reveal the hidden parts of their relationship, represented by the attic where old memories are kept. The passage of time has caused these memories to fade, much like a picture turning yellow, and the singer wants to bring them to the surface.
The imagery of a hovering machine suggests a desire for escape or distance from the current situation. It's as if the singer is using the machine as a way to physically remove themselves from the past and explore new experiences. However, they also wonder if their partner will ever understand the things they have seen or experienced.
The chorus repeats the desire for understanding and connection, specifically around the memories of when the relationship was new and exciting. The line "it turned it all to this" suggests that something has changed, and the relationship has lost some of its spark. Overall, the song explores the need for communication and vulnerability in relationships, as well as the difficulty of truly understanding another person's experiences and perspectives.
