I've had this song on repeat since the opening ceremony. Gojira is the best thing that has happened to the Paris Olympics. Congratulations on the sound. It's by far the best version on RU-vid.
LYRICS: [Intro] Ah! ça ira, ça ira, ça ira Les aristocrates à la lanterne! Ah! ça ira, ça ira, ça ira Les aristocrates on les pendra! [Chanting] Ah-ça-i-ra Ah-ça-i-ra [Hook] Oh! Ah! Ça ira! Mea culpa! Ah! Ça ira! Mea culpa! [Chanting] Ah-ça-i-ra [Bridge: Marina Viotti & Joe Duplantier] Ah! Ça ira, réjouis-toi Ah! Ça ira, le bon temps viendra Ah! Ça ira, mea culpa Let's rejoice, good times will come Without fear for fire or flame! No! Ah! Ça ira!
bro Mario went ham AF on those drums. I just love how they didn't tone down anything and kept it so metal. Also just how expertly they Gojirafied this tune. I knew it was them almost instantly 🤘
I had to look up the meaning of Mea Culpa. " is a phrase originating from Latin that means my fault or my mistake and is an acknowledgment of having done wrong" To me that adds such depth, acknowledging a wrong to pave a new way.
The Original lyrics for Ça Ira "The French people used to keep silent, The aristocrat says, "Mea culpa!" The clergy regrets its wealth, Through justice, the nation will have it." In the French Revolution, the aristocrats and clergy we're attempting to please the masses by acknowledging that they had done the people wrong, famously pleading "Mea culpa". Unfortunately for them, the Guillotine did not speak Latin.
Pleasee Does anybody know what the opera singing woman says through the end at the background? We will cover this song so i couldn't find the lyrics anywhere. Some longer sentences but not Ca ira in French.
Ah! Ça ira, réjouis-toi Ah! Ça ira, le bon temps viendra Ah! Ça ira, mea culpa Let's rejoice, good times will come Without fear for fire or flame! No! Ah! Ça ira!
