«Les choses d’en-face» saw the light of day : a first album of elegance and character, somewhere between chanson, pop and intimate almost jazzy ambiences. Raw lyrics, rich chords, melancholic melodies and a voice that caresses the listener...and a live show that sounds like it has plenty of rock and roll tension.

Quand loin de toi
Je pense a toi
Sally
Beaux les souvenirs
D'un avenir
Tout a écrire
Sally
Grandir a l’envers
Perdre les repères
Quitter la terre
Sally
Sourd l’écho des jours
Les mots d'amour
Ta peau velours
Sally
Tous les visages
Tous les regards
Tous les hasards
Te rappellent à mon souvenir
Sally
Tous les printemps
Tous les instants
Les matins blancs
Te rappellent à mon souvenir
Sally
Dis pense tu à moi
Dis tu encore
L'amour à mort
Sally
Vas tu revenir
J'y crois toujours
Quand poins le jour

Tous les visages
Tous les regards
Tous les hasards
Te rappellent à mon souvenir

Tous les printemps
Tous les instants
Les matins blancs

Sur qu'un autre que moi
T'a fais frémir
Pleurer et rire

Il me manque un temps
A chaque instant
Bien trop souvent
Sally
Tous les visages
Tous les regards
Tous les hasards
Te rappellent à mon souvenir

The song starts with the singer acknowledging the long nights spent thinking about Sally, who is no longer with him.

The singer then describes how he feels lost and disoriented without Sally, and how everything around him reminds him of her. He wonders if Sally still thinks of him and whether their love was strong enough to survive.

The lyrics paint a picture of a man who is still in love with Sally, although she is no longer with him. He longs for her to return and still believes that they have a chance at happiness together. Finally, the song ends with a repetition of the lines "All the faces, all the looks, all the coincidences / Remind me of you, Sally / All the springs, all the moments, the white mornings / Remind me of you, Sally."
