John
brune Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Du sol au plafond il y a
Laêtita morose
Qui attend Jonathan je crois
Je croise ses regards
Mais c'est du vide qu'il y a
Quand elle prend la pose
Car Jonathan ne répond pas
"J'suis sûrement pas belle
T'es tellement trop beau,
T'es trop beau pour moi"
C'est ce qu'elle se raconte
Jaune est le soleil
Jaune est le soleil
Jaune est le soleil
Jaune est le soleil
Jaune est le soleil
Jaune est le sol
Dans la chambre close
Des fenêtres aux portes il y a
Laêtitia pas drôle
Qui voit rien venir dans ses cartes
Dans la chambre close
C'est plus du rose qu'il y a
Laêtit' a sa dose
Et Jonathan ne viendra pas
Tu réponds pas
"J'suis tellement pas belle,
T'es tellement trop bien,
T'es trop bien pour moi"
C'est ce qu'elle se raconte
Jaune est le soleil
Jaune est le soleil
Jaune est le soleil
Mais Jonathan sommeille
Jaune est le soleil
Jaune est le soleil
Jaune est le soleil
Et laetitia s'emballe
John est le soleil
John est le soleil
John est le soleil
John est le ciel, John es el sol
John est le soleil
John est le soleil
John est le ciel
John est le sol
Dans la chambre rose
Des fenêtres aux portes il y a
Johan qui dort
Entends tu le silence là
Dans la chambre rose
Des fenêtres aux portes il y a
Laêtitia qui dort
A Jonathan n'y pense plus
The song "John" by Brune tells the story of Laetitia, a girl waiting for Jonathan, who never shows up. In the first verse, we find her in the pink room, surrounded by emptiness, waiting for a man who never appears. She wonders why a guy as handsome as Jonathan would be interested in her, as shown by the line "J'suis sûrement pas belle, T'es tellement trop beau, T'es trop beau pour moi" (I'm probably not beautiful, You're too handsome, You're too handsome for me). The chorus repeats the phrase "Jaune est le soleil" (Yellow is the sun) several times, highlighting the idea of hope and the possibility of a new dawn.
In the second verse, we see Laetitia in a room without windows or doors, where she tries to find answers in her tarot cards. However, it seems that nothing positive is revealed to her, and she can no longer see any sign of hope. She repeats her worries about Jonathan not finding her attractive enough, and the chorus still represents the hope that a new day will bring change. The final verse introduces a new character, Johan, who is sleeping while Laetitia cannot stop thinking about Jonathan. The last line, "A Jonathan n'y pense plus" (Don't think about Jonathan anymore), implies that it is time for her to move on from waiting for someone who will never come.
Overall, the song captures the melancholic feeling of being alone and waiting for someone who might never show up. The use of color, from the pink of the first room to the yellow of the chorus, creates a contrast between despair and hope. The repetition of the line "J'suis sûrement pas belle" illustrates the insecurities that many people have about their appearance and their ability to be loved.

The sirens in the background was random, but it was magnifique!!! I loved the sirens come in & out at the end which gave it a Depeche Mode feeling... it was perfect timing, like controlled chaos.
