Répertoires d'images brutes, fugitives
Bout à bout en fouille invisible
Télescopage de lointains pays
Segments pointant à l'improviste

Bout à bout en fouille invisible
Télescopage de lointains pays
Segments pointant à l'improviste
Le passé est un pays lointain où je n'habite plus
Le passé est un pays lointain où j'habite
Le passé est un pays lointain où je n'habite plus
Le passé est un pays lointain où j'habite

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Les jolies choses's song "Vertigo" evoke a sense of disorientation and confusion, represented by the repeated phrase "Vertigo in memory, Vertigo in amnesia." This repetition emphasizes the overwhelming feeling of being trapped in a cycle of memories and forgetting. It suggests that memories can both intoxicate and confuse us, creating a sense of vertigo.


The following lines, "Répertoires d'images brutes, fugitives, Bout à bout en fouille invisible, Télescopage de lointains pays, Segments pointant à l'improviste," paint a picture of fragmented and fleeting images. It describes a collection of raw, elusive images that are stitched together invisibly, creating a collage-like effect. The collision of distant lands and unexpected segments adds to the disoriented atmosphere of the song.


The phrase "Le passé est un pays lointain où je n'habite plus, Le passé est un pays lointain où j'habite" further emphasizes the disconnected relationship with the past. It suggests that while the past feels distant and unfamiliar, it is still a place where the singer resides, highlighting the complexity of memory and the ever-changing nature of our relationship with the past.
