1) French rock band
Kaolin is a french rock band, with various musical influences but french lyrics. Their music style can be sometimes quite similar to post-rock and at other times a rageful power pop, always underlined by a fine melodic talent, which protects the band from a hasty and simplistic categorization.
Originating in Montlucon, they remain attached to their native Auvergne region and continue to rehearse in this city. Throughout their young career (2 EPs self-produced and 2 LPs), they were lucky to collaborate with Valentins, Paul Corkett (The Cure, Placebo) and Dave Fridmann (Mogwai, Flaming Lips, Weezer...).
Their new album is mainly sung in french, and contains a song inspired by "I want you" by Bob Dylan called "Partons vite", which is now a hit in France.
2) South African singer
The song "Stranger" is from the South African singer Kaolin Thompson.

Regardes moi cette belle évidence, la belle évidence.
A coup sur je pense cette belle évidence fera sur nos corps tous ces dégats.
Bien sur que j'y pense à ces conséquences, crois moi mon amour et tu verras.
Rapide et forte cette belle évidence me libère les sens.
Demain surement cette belle évidence aura sa sentence.
A coup sur je pense cette belle évidence fera sur nos corps tous ces dégats.
Bien sur que j'y pense à ces conséquences, crois moi mon amour et tu verras.
(Refrain)
Rien ne se marie vraiment en nous.
Tout s'en va,se divise et se dissout!!
Assez sur de moi,la belle évidence,cette belle evidence
plus rien a te dire,evitons le pire evitons le pire.
A coup sur je pense cette belle evidence fera sur nos corps tous ces dégats.
Bien sur que j'y pense à ces conséquences, crois moi mon amour et tu verras.
(Refrain)
Rien ne se marie vraiment en nous.
Tout s'en va,se divise et se dissout!!
Sur de nous quelle evidence quelle evidence!!!
Ce divorce,quelle evidence!!!
(Refrain)
Rien ne se marie vraiment en nous.
Tout s'en va,se divise et se dissout!!
The lyrics of Kaolin's song "Belle évidence" can be interpreted as a warning against pursuing a relationship that is obviously going to end badly. The singer acknowledges the inevitability of the damage that this "beautiful evidence" will cause on their bodies and yet they cannot resist the lure of the prospective relationship. They are aware of the consequences of their actions and fear the potential "sentence" of their decision.
The use of repetition of the phrase "belle évidence" throughout the track serves to emphasize the inevitability of the situation and the singer's reluctance to acknowledge the reality of it. The line "rien ne se marie vraiment en nous" ("nothing truly fits together in us") further highlights the singer's awareness that their relationship is not going to work out, despite their attraction to each other.
In summary, the lyrics are a contemplation of the consequences of pursuing a doomed relationship, and the struggle to resist the pulls of attraction and desire.

Très bon ce morceau. Kaolin....Après une courte apparition sur la scène post rock mediatique, ils ont continué. Ils ont eu raison.
