Impressionnant, je surkif l'atmosphère du clip; les chorés, les tableaux, le feeling au top du top ! Il est dommage que maintenant les artistes zouk ne proposent pas de chorés
@mohamedbenferha3665
là ce sont les ballets de Rheda BEINTEFOUR ( Champs Elysées , Lahaye d'honneur ...) un super chorégraphe toujours en action , quelle troupe et quel look !!!
@winstonjhonny4700

C'était aussi le temps du Zouk Chiré, idéal pour de tels enchainement dansant

J'ai adoré: la chanson, la musique, le clip ... Tout était parfait. Et le son-signature de Jacob Desvarieux (RIP), cette guitare sublime ... C'est assurément là une oeuvre à ne pas oublier.
@josephalcindor4201
Le son de sa guitare 🎸résonne toujours même s'il n'est plus là je l'ai écouté le 31 /10/ 2021 (rip) Jacob

Ah mon enfance en Republique Centrafricaine 🇨🇫 😢 😍. Je rends gloire à Jesus Christ pour m'avoir donner des parents qui m'ont tout donné. J'ai les larmes de joie en decouvrant par hazard ce son. Imaginez-vous, je le regardais depuis mes 7 ans....jai 31 ans aujourd'hui, faite le calcul et vous comprendrez.

Un tube zouk qui méritait un peu plus d'attention ❤️ Ce son produit par le chanteur de Kassav, Jacob Desvarieux (RIP). Quelqu'un peut traduire les paroles en français ?
