Behind the omnipresent melody, Kid Francescoli offers intimate lyrics in English and Italian, many dealing with young men's angst and the dreams of a girl at the dawn of her thirtieth birthday. The music, with its tenacious refrains and its heartfelt instrumentals, shows the inspiration of Air and Grandaddy. At the same time, Italian acts like Cinecitta Ennio Morricone's sound tracks are an obvious influence for this group from Marseilles.
After showing promise as a live act, especially during the Marsatac 2005 festival, the group launched their first national tour (Paris, Marseilles, Bordeaux, Rennes, Nice) in May 2006, sharing the stage with artists such Sebastien Schuller or Troy Von Balthazar.
Kid Francescoli have just released their first album.

Kid Francescoli Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just how you feel
You know you want more
Less perial
You say good bye good ridance
I say amen
We both know its over
Lets end it againCome again like old times
Come and break my heart
Come around like old times
And again break my heart
Id like to state
Id only lie to get through to you
At least now were even
That seems fair to you?
You make me mad and you know it
But you dont know where ive been
Do you want to play fair? Anytime anywhere
Come play me again
Come around
Come around
Come around like old times
Come and break my heart
Come around like old
And again break my heart
