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.
Out of Town
Jil Is Lucky Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This heart of mine
Down the drain
Am I one in a million?
Am I out of track?
It's always the same
The morning rises and falls again
Should I even try
Making my way out of town?
Make my way out
Should I make it out?
Oh man I know it depends
On the mood, on the weather I know well
But I am so familiar with lightnings and clouds
I have a lot of time and many friends and I'm so proud
To be one of them
But I'm still on the line
Asking myself all the time
Should I make it out of town?
Make my way out
Should I make it out?
I'll take a seat on a plane
Leave the ground
Feel the moon close at hand
When the sun goes down
I'll hear my heart beat again
I don't mind
Fall asleep in a train
When the sun goes
When the sun goes down
Let's run out of town
Start it all over
Find a place away from her
Start it all over
Keep myself away from her
Start it all over
The lyrics of "Out of Town" by Jil Is Lucky reflect a sense of brokenness and discontentment. The singer questions their place in the world and ponders whether they are just another face in the crowd, drifting through life aimlessly. They feel stuck in a cycle of repetition, where the morning brings hope only for it to be shattered by the evening. The lyrics convey a desire to escape and find a new beginning, away from the familiar surroundings that have become suffocating.
The mention of mood and weather implies that the singer's state of mind is influenced by external factors. They are all too familiar with the storms and challenges they face, yet they also acknowledge the support they receive from friends. Despite this, they are still uncertain about their path in life and continuously question whether leaving their current situation and starting anew is the right decision.
The final part of the song repeats the theme of starting over and getting away from a person who seems to hold them back. It suggests a need for self-preservation and a fresh start that allows for personal growth and freedom from the burdens of the past.
Overall, "Out of Town" captures a sense of restlessness, longing for change, and the struggle to find one's identity and purpose in a world that can feel stagnant.

Broken again
My heart is shattered once more
This heart of mine
My own heart
Down the drain
Lost and wasted
Am I one in a million?
Do I stand out from the crowd?
Am I out of track?
Have I lost my way?
It's always the same
The cycle repeats
The morning rises and falls again
Each day begins and ends
But I'm not doing better
I'm not improving
Should I even try
Is it worth the effort?
Making my way out of town?
Leaving this place behind?
Make my way out
Find a path away
Should I make it out?
Should I succeed in leaving?
Oh man I know it depends
I understand it relies
On the mood, on the weather I know well
On the emotions, on the climate I'm familiar with
But I am so familiar with lightnings and clouds
I am accustomed to challenges and difficulties
I have a lot of time and many friends and I'm so proud
I have plenty of time and numerous friends, and I feel proud
To be one of them
To be part of this circle
But I'm still on the line
But I'm still uncertain
Asking myself all the time
Constantly questioning
Should I make it out of town?
Should I successfully leave this place?
I'll take a seat on a plane
I'll board an airplane and sit down
Leave the ground
Depart from familiar territory
Feel the moon close at hand
Sense the presence of the moon nearby
When the sun goes down
During sundown
I'll hear my heart beat again
I'll feel my heart pulsating once more
I don't mind
I don't care
Fall asleep in a train
Drift off to sleep while traveling by train
When the sun goes
As the sun sets
When the sun goes down
During sunset
Let's run out of town
Let's escape from this place
Start it all over
Begin again from the start
Find a place away from her
Discover a location far from her
Keep myself away from her
Distance myself from her
Start it all over
Begin again from the start
