Not only was it a hidden camera, but it became a buzz in the news, everyone judging him for being drunk on the streets, saying his career was over. Those not knowing his work started researching it. And guess what, a few weeks later when the Song and Video came out everyone realized they'd been played a joke on and he'd become even more famous with the Buzz xD
You know what's cool? Those people filming him posted it on social media and the news that he was walking around Brussels drunk was all over the place. When the video came out, everybody realized they had been fooled. Genius.
actually he wasn't drunk, he was shooting the music video in secret he was pretending to be drunk, that's why the police ask him if he need help, I really like this song and the way it was shot!!!!
+chs sabrina He is very famous in arabic countries as well espacially in north africa , he is an international pop star , "amazing" can't describe his songs , actualy , they are more than just songs
It's so wonderful to see Stromae being known outside the francophone world. I'm really happy that you're reacting to his music and videos. Also, your reactions and comments are genuine and constructive, actually bringing something to the art of Stromae and for that you got a new sub.
What an amazing and intelligent reaction... This song is my favorite from Stomaë, really, the lyrics, the music, the way he sings, this special video, his voice... Thanks and love from France 🇫🇷😘
I have watched a lot of these react to Stromae vidéos, I have to say you really get him! It's so amazing how you let yourself be touched buy what he has to say, even though you don't miss some of his lyrics because they can't be translated.
I've watched a few reactions to this song, and it's the first Time I feel like this song was fully understood. This is my favorite one from Stromae. Drunk talk turned into such a beautiful and touching song. This is what I call talent . ❤
This song , in particular, is very touching. Early on, he tells a woman who he is trying to chat with, “I can’t have children”. I think this is what the song is about. A man and woman break up because he can’t have children, and she wants to have a family. Most couples do. So when he refers to “a guy like me” that’s what he’s thinking about and he’s really bummed out. I think it’s a heartbreaking song, but really beautiful. Watch the video of the concert in Montreal in 2017. He’s incredible!
Only came across your react video in 2021, my bad. Being from Belgium, I'm very proud to have artists like Stromae. But most of all, I really enjoyed your reaction. Also due to the fact that, contrary to most reactors, you did not stop the video once and you watched the entire thing, so we can see that your reactions are very natural and I loved that. And we belgians miss Stromae. Though he did put out a few songs lately, we haven't seen THIS Stromae lately, the artist, the Maestro.
3:25 The whole thing was filmed in a public place, but without anyone knowing that it was part of a shooting, so he's acting drunk, cause well its hte point of the song, the ramblings of a drunkard, and poeple really did call the cops, to check on him. And it was not scripted, the cops din't know what was going on, and they where calm and polite. Now in Belgium it is not forbidden by law to be drunk on the street, so unless he was been a danger for himself and others, they had no reasons to take him in, so they left. i suspect that the production maybe called them after wards to explain what was going on?, not sure.
Cheers Man for appreciating this, it is indeed incredible. From BE so I might be a 'bit' biased (understatement probably). Nonetheless, thanks for the wonderful reaction, we love the guy.
check out stromae's ave cesaria it's a tribute song to cesaria evora and one of my favorite songs by him you don't have to make a reaction video just enjoy the music
I love your reaction about him... If you love this song you can watch some cover in the french the Voice. An artiste did a great Job he combines the Arabic version at first and continue with the french one. Here the name for you Slimane (The voice5) - Formidable
the real story of this song is about a drunk man who lost his son ( we were wonderful together, you were wonderful, I was pathetic and it is a story of a man whom Stomae met once on the street of Brussels and he made a song about it...he sings and act as well, that makes it realistic video..... it is a said story
stromae explain how this song was created...he was in his car at a gaz station..eating something...and 3 guys came to his window..and actualy were trying to make stromae react to whatever..but stromae...keept his cool...continued to eat..knowing the guys were recording...and..the video was uploaded...and was everywhere...so stromae..make this song..about being weel known is formidable!...because..whatever you do..people are going to scrutinize...what all wrong you do ...so stromae said to himself...they want some juice?...i'll give them some...and here this video!!!
Your reaction to stromae is so nice to watch. Loved it! If u got a free moment pls react to oscar and the wolf "breathing" . I think u will like it. Thank you! Take care.
Pour une fois que y'a quelqu'un qui fait des reactions sur une chanson française, Army arrêter svp ok nos boys sont beaux et tout mais laissez de la place pour d'autres artistes, surtout si c'est pour lui recommander de la Kpop
Decent vid, man. Quick comment from one youtuber to another, up your mic volume or lower the browser volume because the song overrides what youre saying, making it hard to hear. -- But yeah, Stromae was doing a social experiment to see how much of the population helps or isolates him. He found, I think it was, 1/3rd of everyone that saw him attempted to help. Something like that. Overall though, good job. Looking forward to more.
