Manu - aka Emmanuel Macron - who decided to place a prime first issued from a political party that obtained 5% of the votes during the last legislative elections in France, with the objective to forbid the left socialist and communist parties (who won the lection by the way) to access power. That prime minister, to get the support of the fascist party (RN) decided to place as minister of Interior (homeland security-ish) a fascist - aka Bruno Retailleau - who declared on TV that Rule Of Law was not sacred, and that sometimes, government should just do what's the most convenient.
@BAZTHEFRENCHMAN Oh, okay, wow, merci! I seriously had no idea what that meant. I even looked it up. Anyway, you're an amazing musician, Bastien. Real shit. The Crassical & The Art Of Time are fuckin' timeless classics. 😉 What you did with The Decline, ...I don't even have the words for. 😭 For what it's worth, all of your compositions make me cry. - Good tears, too, unlike Gaza tears, which never seem to end... Never stop making music, frère. 🫡 Free Palestine.
50 preopaganda, youtube já eras... só propaganda, pior que televisão... mas não assino! pelas propaganddas do youtube eu assinei o spotfy pois eu ouvia musica por aqui...
There's very few shows worth paying the higher and higher prices for, but I would pay so much to see this in person now. I will forever love the decline in its original form, but BAZ's composition is absolutely incredible!
Where are all the stupid people from? And how did they get to be so dumb, Bred on purple mountain range, Feed amber waves of grains To lesser human beings, Zero feelings Blame it on Human nature, Man's destiny Blame it on the greediocracy The fear of god, The fear of change, Fear of truth. Add the bill of rights subtract the wrongs Memorize and sing star spangled songs There's no answers when the questions aren't ever asked is anybody learning from the past, Were living in united stagnation Father...what have I done, I took that 22, A gift for me from you, To bed with me each night, Kept it clean, Polished it well, Cherished every cartridge every shell, Down, By the creek, Under brush, Under dirt there's a carcass of my second kill, Down, At the park, Under stone, Under pine there's the carcass of my brother william. Brother where have you gone to I swear I never thought I could see so many times They told me to shoot straight, Don't pull the trigger squeeze, That will insure a kill, A kill is what you want, A kill is why we breed. The christians love their guns The church and nra. Pray for their salvation, Prey on the lower faiths. The story book's been read and every line believed. The curriculum's been set logic is a threat reason searched & seized. Jerry spent some time in michigan, A 20 year vacation after all he had a dime, A dime is worth a lot more in detroit, A dime in california...a 20 dollar fine Jerry only stayed a couple months It's hard to enjoy yourself while bleeding out the ass Asphyxiation is simple and fast It beats 17 fun years of being someone's bitch Don't think, Drink your wine, Watch the fire burn, His problems not mine, Just be that model citizen. I wish I had a schilling, For every senseless killing, I'd buy a government. America's for sale, And you can get a good deal on it, And make a healthy profit, Or maybe tear it apart, You start with assumption, That a million people are smart, Smarter than 1 Serotonins gone, She gave up, Drifted away. Sara fled thought process gone, She left her answering machine on, The greeting left spoken sincere, Messages no one will ever hear, 10, 000 messages a day A million more transmissions lay Victims of the laissez faire 10.000 voices 100 guns, 100 decibels turns to one, one bullet one empty head Now with serotonin gone The man that used to speak performs a cute routine. Feel a little patronized. Don't feel bad about what they found a way inside your head. And you feel a bit misled. It's not that they don't care. The televisions put a thought inside your head Like a barry manilow Jingle I'd like to Teach the world to sing In perfect harmony A symphonic blank stare. It doesn't make you care. Not designed to make you care. They're betting you won't care. They'll place a wager on your greed. A wager on your pride Why try to beat them when a million others tried We are the whores Intellectually sprayed We are the queer Dysfunctionally raised One more pill to kill the pain, One more pill to kill the pain, One more pill to kill the pain, Living through conformity One more prayer should keep us safe, One more prayer to keep us warm, One more prayer to keep us safe, There's gonna be a better place, Lost the battle Lost the war Lost the things worth living for Lost the will to win the fight One more pill to kill the pain The going gets tough the tough get debt Don't pay attention pay the rent Our next of kins pay for your sins A little faith should keep us safe Save us The human existence Is failing. Resistance essential. The future Written off. The odds Are astronomically against us only Moron and genius Would fight a losing battle Against the super ego When giving in is so damn comforting And so we go On with our lives We know the truth But prefer lies lies Are simple. Simple is bliss. Why go against tradition when we can Admit defeat. Live in decline. Be the victim of our own design The status quo Built on suspect. Why would anyone stick out their neck Fellow members Club we've got ours, I'd like to introduce you to our host He's got his and I've got mine, We got decline
The decline is basically a dark, desperate, angry, furious song. It is played from the ground while they step on your neck and tries to convey that there is nothing to do but that does not mean that we should try to do anything. It is the song of hope from someone without hope, nihilistic and disbelieving who knows that they are going to defeat him but refuses to give up whitout a last "fuckyou" I'm sorry, but although the song was beautiful and well executed and I have nothing to say about it. It lost all its essence along the way and has none of the feeling or message of the original. There is no darkness, there is no desperate hope... It's just a soulless technical exercise.

I subscribed, liked, etc. a fan. I come from a world of classical music first and punk rock second. I love both though. I'm sorry man, this arrangement doesn't hit the mark. The melodies are buried, it's hard to follow. It seems muddled. I know creating an arrangement isn't easy and watching this is still amazing and you should be proud. I'll give you this (and I'll update my comment as needed, I'm not far in, and maybe this gets epic, but I'll say that The Decline pulls you in quick, and this doesn't, this feels like "trust us, maybe it gets epic?" but the beginning is hard to trust. Love you still and mad respect.
