"Chante comme si tu devais mourir demain" Michel Fugain

This is a very simple song that usually helps me getting through difficult moments in life. Since we are encountering tough moments in Lebanon, this song may help you. You may find the solution to many of your problems in just, singing. One problem in this song is that you should know French.

Chante la vie chante
Comme si tu devais mourir demain
Chante comme si plus rien n'avait d'importance
Chante, oui chante
Aime la vie aime
Comm' un voyou comm' un fou comm' un chien
Comme si c'était ta dernière chance
Chante oui chante
Tu peux partir quand tu veux
Et tu peux dormir où tu veux
Rêver d'une fille
Prendre la Bastille
Ou claquer ton fric au jeu
Mais n'oublie pas.
Chante la vie chante
Comme si tu devais mourir demain
Chante comme si plus rien n'avait d'importance
Chante, oui chante
Fête fais la fête
Pour un amour un ami ou un rien
Pour oublier qu'il pleut sur tes vacances
Chante oui chante
Et tu verras que c'est bon
De laisser tomber sa raison
Sors par les fenêtres
Marche sur la tête
Pour changer les traditions
Mais n'oublie pas.
Chante la vie chante
Comme si tu devais mourir demain
Chante comme si plus rien n'avait d'importance
Chante, oui chante
Michel Fugain

I love this song! Any song that tells you to throw everytihng to the wind and just keep on singing is wonderful :)

Here's its translation: (yes, yes, I know, I'm too sweet :) :P

Sing life
As if you were going to die tomorrow
Sing as if nothing mattered anymore
Sing, yes sing
Love life
Like a rascal, a madman, a dog
Love it as if it were your last chance
Sing, yes sing
You can leave whenever you want
You can sleep wherever you want
You can dream of a girl, take the Bastille, or gamble all your money
But never forget to
Sing life
As if you were going to die tomorrow
Sing as if nothing mattered anymore
Sing, yes sing
Party for a love, a friend, or for no reason
To forget that it’s raining on your holidays
Sing, yes sing
And you’ll see that it’s all right
To forget your sanity
Go out from the windows
Walk on your head
To change traditions
But never forget to
Sing life
As if you were going to die tomorrow
Sing as if nothing mattered anymore
Sing, yes sing!

Thanks delirious for the translation. I wanted to do it but i hadn't the time because of my schedule. I'm glad we have similar tastes in arts in general

yes, sing this song as loud as you can in lebanon, in gaza strip, westjordan land in syria, israel, u.s.and everywhere in the world.
So the responsable politicians may hear it and change their points of view in a really peacefull ONE. And the weapons wil be quiet for ever! And respect and tolerance will grow again!
