Jérôme Rocipon is French but has been living in Montreal since 2003. He experimented with a few musical projects while studying law and communication. He experimented with electro music under the name of Junior Tricolore, but never used it.
Pierre Crube, Canadian, has been living in Montreal since 2001. He started by meeting members of Natacha's Recording who let him get his first live experience, but everything really began in 2003 when he recorded his first album "Immediate False Relief under the name of Angelika Kohlermann. This first album gets noticed by its deviant electronic pop.
In June 2005, Jérôme approached Pierre after having discovered him in a duo with Hypo, and proposed him to produce his compositions. Step by step, Pierre remixed his creations in a catchy euro-pop. This association became more and more natural, and Numéro# was born.

Numéro# Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Everything always came easily but today I woke up and felt nothing
Could it be that finally finding out that there's absolutely nothing to shout about
Faced with the choice of just losing my voice I'd just rather shut up and say nothing
On the outside we have to stick together
On the downside you just get in the way
I see grey skies and I feel alittle better
The right people seem squeaky clean well all the right people mean nothing to me
Cheatin' and creepin' just to stay on track they'll offer one hand and point a knife in your back
Noticed that something is terribly wrong when they offer the world and you turn and they're gone
You knew from the start you could never belong
You came from the outside, just stay on the inside
Stay on the outside
Places just pass me by
If I told you I was sorry I'd be telling a lie
I'm way happy, I'm way outside and I'll be happy as long as I stay here
Just stay right out
I'm about to give you something to complain about
Don't you know just stay right out
Better stay back and do nothing
On the outside we like to stick together
On the downside you just get in the way
I see grey skies ahead and I feel alittle better
I see grey skies ahead and it's fine by me oh
All the right people seem squeaky clean
Well all the right people mean nothing to me
Creepin' and cheatin' to stay on track
Offer one hand and put a knife in your back
Notice that something is terribly wrong when they offer the world and they turn and they're gone
You knew from the start you could never belong
You came from the outside, just stay on the outside
Live on the outside
Willing to offer you nothing at all
Make no mistake
If your looking for answers you're in the wrong place
If your asking for answers you're in the wrong place
There's absolutely nothing I'm trying to say
Just watch where you walk when you're losing the way
Step up from the outside
Stay on the outside

On the outside we have to stick together
We need to appear united to others
On the downside you just get in the way
But in reality, you're just a burden
I see grey skies and I feel a little better
Seeing bleakness brings me some comfort
I see grey skies ahead and it's fine by me oh oh
I'm fine with the idea of things getting worse
The right people seem squeaky clean well all the right people mean nothing to me
People who look good on the surface hold no value for me
Cheatin' and creepin' just to stay on track they'll offer one hand and point a knife in your back
People will do whatever it takes to succeed, even if it means betraying those who trusted them
Noticed that something is terribly wrong when they offer the world and you turn and they're gone
You realize too late that you've been abandoned after being promised everything
You knew from the start you could never belong
You always knew you didn't fit in
You came from the outside, just stay on the inside
You should stay true to yourself and not try to fit in with people who don't accept you
Places just pass me by
I feel like I'm just existing without actively participating in life
If I told you I was sorry I'd be telling a lie
I have no regrets about who I am

I'm content with living life on my own terms
Just stay right out
Stay away from getting too involved in other people's lives
I'm about to give you something to complain about
I'm warning you that you won't like what I'm about to say or do
Better stay back and do nothing
It's best to stay out of things and not take risks
Live on the outside
Choose to live life differently than what is expected
Willing to offer you nothing at all
I'm not trying to impress you or offer you anything of value
Make no mistake
Don't misunderstand me
If your looking for answers you're in the wrong place
I can't provide any answers or guidance
If your asking for answers you're in the wrong place
So don't bother asking me anything
There's absolutely nothing I'm trying to say
I don't have anything specific to communicate
Just watch where you walk when you're losing the way
Be careful when you're lost and not sure where to go
Step up from the outside
Be brave and embrace being different
Stay on the outside
Stay true to who you are and don't conform just to fit in
