Kiss (part.Yseult e Ensemble)

Eddy de Pretto's song "Kiss (part.Yseult e Ensemble)" is a poignant exploration of the end of a romantic relationship, filled with raw emotion and introspection. The lyrics, shared between Eddy de Pretto and Yseult, paint a vivid picture of the pain and resignation that come with a breakup. The song opens with a sense of confinement and frustration, likening the emotional turmoil to a lion in a cage. This metaphor sets the stage for the intense feelings of loss and regret that permeate the song.

The chorus, sung by the ensemble, emphasizes the finality of the relationship with the repeated plea for "just a last kiss." This kiss symbolizes a final moment of connection before parting ways, a last attempt to hold on to something that is already slipping away. The lyrics convey a sense of inevitability and acceptance, as both parties acknowledge that they have lost something precious. The repetition of "à d'autres" (to others) suggests a desire to move on and let go of the past, even though it is a painful process.

Yseult's verses add another layer of depth to the song, as she reflects on the memories and physical connection that once existed. The imagery of a "last dance" and the plea to not erase the feelings they had for each other highlight the bittersweet nature of the farewell. The song captures the complexity of ending a relationship, where love and pain are intertwined, and the struggle to let go is palpable. Eddy de Pretto and Yseult's collaboration, along with the ensemble's haunting harmonies, create a powerful and emotional narrative that resonates with anyone who has experienced the end of a meaningful relationship.
