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.
Stand all night
Jil Is Lucky Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tuck in the middle of the darkest ways of bother
And destroying the shores with painted finger lovers
Slip the white in gold, they’re living under
Oh you and I,
Throwing deep the stones in the morning sky
Oh I, you know that it’s over ‘cause we don’t have time
(Chorus)
I could stand all night, all night
I would love to but I have to go, oh yea
Shit, I’d stand all night
I need to catch up with some friends of mine
Don’t tell me you never did say so
But both of us
We are waiting for a midnight
Best to dig and find the sand of blasted name
And a while I got a mission
To times disappearing
Like you and I,
Throwing deep the stones in the morning sky
Oh I, you know that it’s over ‘cause we don’t have time
(Chorus)
I could stand all night, all night
I would love to but I have to go, oh yea
Shit, I’d stand all night
I need to catch up with some friends of mine
Don’t tell me you never did say so
Oh you and I,
Throwing deep the stones in the morning sky
Oh I, you know that it’s over ‘cause we don’t have time
(Chorus)
I could stand all night, all night
I would love to but I have to go, oh yea
I need to catch up with some friends of mine
And I ain’t gonna stand all night
I would love to but I have to go, oh yea
Shit, I’d stand all night
I need to catch up with some friends of mine
Don’t tell me you never did say so
The lyrics of "Stand all night" by Jil Is Lucky appear to be about the struggle of balancing the desire to live in the moment with the need to prioritize responsibilities and commitments. The singer describes a vision of beauty and creativity ("frames and colors") hidden in the midst of darkness and hardship, but ultimately acknowledges the need to move on and catch up with friends. Throughout the song, there is a sense of urgency and fleetingness, emphasized by the repetition of "we don't have time."
The chorus, "I could stand all night, all night / I would love to but I have to go," encapsulates this conflict. The singer wants to stay and enjoy the moment but recognizes the importance of fulfilling obligations. There is a sense of frustration and resignation in the final lines, as the singer acknowledges that they "ain't gonna stand all night" and that they have to catch up with friends.
Overall, the lyrics seem to convey a bittersweet message about the struggle to balance responsibility and spontaneity in life. While there is joy and beauty to be found in the moment, there are also important commitments and relationships that must be tended to.
