Always on the road, he initiated a 6-month road trip in 2015 to meet Australian artists and record his first album « Panorama » in his home-studio Van. The hit « Aloha » with the Byron Bay singer Merryn Jeann, offered him a triple diamond record and recognition in France and beyond. Møme’s first album was released on November 25th, 2016.
On stage Møme is a true performer, playing live the guitar, the keyboard and inviting featuring to jam with, like the Californian Mr J. Medeiros on the track « Let’s Go » or Petit Biscuit with who he composed « Gravitation ».
During his one-year tour, Møme played in the most famous European festivals (Roskilde, Paleo, Dour, Ms Dockville) and got thousand-ticket sold out gigs every time he played as headliner in Paris (La Cigale, The Olympia…).
Møme also offered his fans 3 incredibles live sessions, in front of the Sydney Opera, at the Eiffel Tower, in the middle of the Tahitian turquoise waters and on a L.A. rooftop during sunset.
In 2018, Møme was ready to introduce his French touch in the USA. After a writing session in L.A and the tour support of Gramatik, he performed in +15 venues all around California and East Coast, selling out his first headline show at Rough Trade NY.
More recently, he invited his fans to discover his “Moment” EPs by releasing a
first EP inspired by travels Bali and a second in Los Angeles, released late
2019 including his hit « Sail Away ». Introducing his new sphere live show, he toured all over France in summer 2019 ending with a packed Cigale in Paris.
Sail Away
Møme Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yeah I keep trying to unwind-wind-wind
Why am I falling so behind?
I don't know what to say
And I don't know what to do
When you're falling out of love
When there's nothing else to lose
Yeah I keep wasting all my time
I'm not okay, I'm not okay, I'm not okay
But I keep slipping
I'm not okay, I'm not okay, I'm not okay
But I keep slipping down
Yeah, we finally found a place to dwell
Could this be heaven? Feels like hell
Can I move on? It's hard to tell
Will someone tell me?
You wanna sail away
Out of darkness out of pain
Do you wanna really know
How to listen to your soul?
It just takes time
Yeah I keep wasting all my time
I'm not okay, I'm not okay, I'm not okay
But I keep slipping
I'm not okay, I'm not okay, I'm not okay
But I keep slipping down
Yeah I'm slipping down, away
Know I wanna talk to you
Roll around and walk with you
Stop hitting my heart
I won't quit I won't stop
Climbing over the top of you
Stop hitting my heart
I won't quit I won't stop
Climbing over the top
I'm climbing over the top of you
I won't quit I won't stop
Climbing over the top of you
I won't quit I won't stop
Climbing over the top of you
I'm not okay, I'm not okay
But I keep slipping down
The lyrics to "Sail Away" by Møme and Ricky Ducati are about the difficulties of moving on from a past relationship and the struggle to understand one's feelings while dealing with the pain of heartbreak. The opening lines express a sense of wasting time and not knowing why the singer feels like they are falling behind. Despite wanting to move on and unwind from the stress of the situation, the singer can't seem to shake the feelings of heartache and confusion.
As the song progresses, the lyrics suggest that the singer has found a new place to dwell with their partner, but it's not necessarily a happy place. The juxtaposition of the lines "Could this be heaven? Feels like hell" reveals the contrast between the reality of the situation and the potential for what could be. The chorus repeats the sentiment that the singer keeps slipping down, feeling the weight of their emotions and struggling to find a way out.
The bridge brings a slight shift in tone, with the suggestion that one can sail away from the darkness and pain of their current situation. The lyrics encourage listeners to take the time to listen to their souls, emphasizing that it takes time to heal and move on. The final verse includes a repeated plea to stop hitting the singer's heart and to climb over the top of them, as though they are trying to escape the pain and move on from the past relationship.

Time, yeah I keep wasting all my time
I continue to spend my time aimlessly
Yeah I keep trying to unwind-wind-wind
I'm attempting to relax, but struggling to do so
Why am I falling so behind?
Why am I failing to keep up and progress?
I don't know what to say
I have no words
And I don't know what to do
I'm uncertain of my next steps
When you're falling out of love
When love fades away
When there's nothing else to lose
When there's nothing left to let go of
Except for time
Except for the passing of time
I'm not okay, I'm not okay, I'm not okay
I'm not doing well, and repeating it to emphasize
But I keep slipping
Despite recognizing this, I continue to worsen
Yeah, we finally found a place to dwell
We've discovered a home for ourselves
Could this be heaven? Feels like hell
While it should be blissful, it's causing misery
Can I move on? It's hard to tell
Am I able to progress? I'm unsure
Will someone tell me?
I'm seeking guidance from others
You wanna sail away
Do you want to escape?
Out of darkness out of pain
Leaving behind suffering
Do you wanna really know
Do you truly desire to learn
How to listen to your soul?
How to be mindful of oneself
It just takes time
Self-improvement is a long process
Yeah I keep wasting all my time
I continue to spend my time aimlessly
Know I wanna talk to you
I want to communicate with you
Roll around and walk with you
To be physically close with you
Stop hitting my heart
Don't cause me emotional pain
I won't quit I won't stop
I'll persist despite difficulties
Climbing over the top of you
Overcoming obstacles and rising above
Yeah I'm slipping down, away
I'm regressing, distancing myself

Desde que escuché ésta canción me volví un total y completo fan de Mome. Justamente estábamos atravesando la pandemia del COVID y por el confinamiento me dió una depresión fatal. Y ésta canción se volvió un himno que me acompañó. Incluso ahora que ya estamos de salida. Es un gran tema que no dejo de escuchar. En pleno 2023
Saludos desde México 🇲🇽
(((Que la música siga uniéndonos)))
@raul890406

This's by far my favorite mv. As a person who's been suffering from depression, I can totally relate to every single scene from it. Thank you for this beautiful work.
