From the encounter with the Kassav musicians, the group Kou Doubl will be born, which marks the real debut of this artist's career. After two albums and the success of “JUMP UP” and “ENSEMBLE OU NON“ in 1993, THIERRY CHAM releases his first album the following year : “ULTIME CONFESSION”. The title “COUP DE FOUDRE” then meets with enormous success and is placed number one in all the hit parades of the Afro-Caribbean network. Always under the inspiration of romanticism and sensuality, the album “NUIT BLANCHE” comes into being in 1995 and confirms the growing potential and popularity of this young artist. In 1996 he offers us an album regrouping the best of his recordings with a novel version of the title “Invitation” and a summer tour with RMC. In 1997 his third solo album “Naturel” is released. It has an enormous success with the titles Ciel and Baby. In 1998 THIERRY CHAM sets the waves on fire with his three title CD : “ENFLAME W” “TE SEDUIRE” and “IVRESSE”. The video made on ENFLAME W is highly conspicuous due to the sensuality that it released. For the year 2000 THIERRY CHAM offers us his new album “SIMPLEMENT”. Rich in original tones, this album is very quickly adopted by local radios as well as the growing public. The three titles coming out of this opus quickly became successes throughout the Afro-Caribbean network and the Indian Ocean. These titles are 7e Ciel “SIMPLEMENT” (among other songs dedicated to his late artist friend Gilles FLORO) and the song OCEAN which is the hit song in this album. On 2 December 2000 Thierry CHAM appears on a national channel in a variety broadcasting programme HIT MACHINE by M6. On that same date, he gives a single concert in Paris in the capital’s prestigious CIGALE hall where a great number of national and international artists have performed. Success is guaranteed for this young artist who will further surprise us. Last album "Là d'où je viens", 2008

Ciel
Thierry Cham Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

assis sous un Ciel qui crache le feu
je me sens un peu seul oui juste un peu
des larmes me viennent aux yeux comme l'eau des cieux
la pluie mouille ma peau, j'ai froid dans le dos
le tonnerre me gronde pour que je réponde
que je dise pourquoi pour moi tout s'effondre
je voudrais revoir ses yeux
son regard si merveilleux

je voudrais revoir ses lèvres
son sourire si malicieux
son visage si radieux
et son corps si désireux
assis sous un Ciel qui crache son jeu
je me sens un peu joueur oui juste un peu
des envies me raniment je me sens si heureux
heureux de dire je t'aime à celle que j'aime
le tonnerre gronde pour que je réponde
que je dises pourquoi mon cur résonne
REFRAIN:
juste au fond de toi
au plus profond de toi baby
juste au fond de toi(2 fois)
brille le soleil
coule les rivières
gronde le tonnerre

foudroie les éclairs
le battement de son cur. c'est là mon bonheur
