Orelsan mentioned Saitama bc he is his actual French dub 👌
6:31
He also made the official japanese ost of this anime
@@kaneda241 yep he raps in the opening. But to be fair it's not the best part of it 😬
@@johana3065 i know but it's still cool that he had the opportunity to do it
This song is the intro of his third album. That's why he talks about the number 3.
And also because San mean 3 actually and mister
This video was filmed the night he just won 3 French Music victories . He finished his concert in Geneva, took the plane and arrived to sing.
dude the lyrics of this song it's maybe the most amazing lyrics that Orelsan wrote, the meaning is so deep.
DUUUUUUUDE, I'm so glad you did it ! Thanks for this.
Man, you're good at guessing what the lyrics are about without understanding a word of French. It's totally that, he's talking about his life and his career choices. He's faced a lot of polemics and controversies in France at the beginning of his career, but he's never changed who he is.
If you want to listen to more French music (not just rap), let me know, I'll dig up some awesome things for you !
You should really try to listen to "l'odeur de l'essence". This guy knows how to say simply complex things, and a massive thank you for having readind the lyrics, you really went into it. Hi from France
The PMU is a place in France where you can bet for horses race, it's often add to a pub.
Yes and you need to be drunk to play so they sell alcohol in here 😂
He talks about Saitama, the hero of One Punch Man cause he is fan of mangas but also cause he's the official voice of the hero in the french version.
Damn didn't know that
@Augustine Harrison stfu
And he singing for the generic of the second season in VO !
this is not the main subject
Tiens CheckDaCROU je suis même pas étonné de te voir ici.
Les français ils faut se présenter !!!!
« Présentez vous !!! »
Qui je suis?!!
🙋
I highly recommend Mc Solaar and the songs "Solaar pleure" and "Hasta la vista"
Love the video ! Just want to add some points because I think some lyrics may have lose their meaning in a too literal translation:
"Mes nuits sont blanches et mes idées noires" -> In french, "white nights" means "sleepless night" and "black thoughts" means "dark thoughts"
He's making a pun talking about colours to express the fact that he can't sleep and spent the night overthinking.
"Vodka, Doliprane, maintenant j'anticipe" -> I don't think you may have this type of medication, but "Doliprane" are currently use for get over an hangover. So, as an adult now, he continue to drink like a teenager but he is forward-looking.
"Ablaye et Skread, jvais jamais perdre" -> Ablaye and Skread are the nicknames of his producers since the beginning, Skread is also his composer on a lot of his songs. He tells them "he never gonna loose" and it's sounds like (at least for me) "thanks for believin in me and I never disappointing you"
Orelsan are really into asian and japanese culture, so he likes to put some references of it in his work.
"Gun-Kata" is a bullet ballet, that we can see in many action movies, especially in John Woo 's ones.
As everyone says, he is the french voice of Saitama in the japanese anime "One Punch Man".
His stage name is literally a reference to his passion for manga. His first name is Aurélien (AUREL = OREL, same pronouciation) and,
SAN (in japanese) is added to a person's name for showing respect to someone older or wiser. As he said "San, means Sir" (and could also means 3).
In his first album, one of this song said "Orel for my first name, San for the asian whores".
So It's interesting because in this particuliar song, he finish by giving another signification of his stage name.
Dunno if I can help with this (very) long comment.
Sorry for my poor english too, I always try to improve myself in it.
If you want to listen another of his song, should I suggest "Des histoires a raconter" even if It's a duo with his mate Gringe, the song is terrific and the clip too!
Another thing about the meaning of the number « 3 » : this song is part of his 3rd solo album (it’s actually the first of the track), he even talk about it « orelsan part 3 le dernier volet de la saga » / « orelsan part 3. The last volume of the saga » just like if it was a trilogy and with this albums he finishes what he started in 2009 with his first album. And I think it’s prête cool.
Doliprane is just a brand for paracetamol, also known as acetaminophen. It's not made for hangover, but for fever and pain (like headache), but it's cheap and easy to get, so it's often used for hangovers. And thanks for this long comment, really important for a better understanding, even if the translation was actually pretty good, I was afraid to have something way more word-to-word.
Gun kata is from the movie equilibrium 😊
Orelsan explains that he isn't "normal" and despite the rather dark words about his life, he remains positive in the future and about the person he whishes to be. The also talks about the mistakes of the past ( witch sometimes refer to his old sounds where he was an insolent teenager who didn't care about anything. Sorry for my English i'm french ^^
Didn''t know your channel. Good pick on Orelsan. I wasn't a fan eraly in his career, but now that I'm older I kinda rediscover him. What I like is that he is not trying to fit in, or proove anything to anyone. He's doing his thing, speaking some real truth.
BTW many people explained what PMU is (basically a pub where you can gamble and play lottery), but what he means is that in those pubs there are many "know better" people that critisize and speak about a subject without really knowing what they ar etakling about.
Just found your page, really liking it! I gotta suggestion to :) Another Pentatonix video, they did Amazing Grace. Goosebumps. Lots of them.
Hi, I'm French, you chose Orelsan to discover French rap, I really like what it does but I think there are many other rappers who do a very good job but a little less known, especially for non-French speakers
The PMU is a place that allows you to bet or watch on horse races, drink a glass of alcohol or a cup of coffee, Or buy gambling created by "La Française des jeux" (the French games) which is a company of the French state
You forgot to say that PMU is a place where there is many alcoholics and they talk about things that they don't know
When you pass a PMU in France you always see people drinking whatever it's 9 AM or 9 PM in most french people's heads it's representing social failure thats the kind of place where you only see 50yo alcoholic all day i'll say
Sick reaction! PS: funny fact about this live performance, two hours earlier he was in Geneva doing a live show, flew back to Paris for that tv show and produced this masterpiece.... the man is a beast!
When he talk about Saitama it's because he did the french music of "One Punch Man"
And also the french voice of Saitama ;)
Not just the french ost. It's the official japanese ost for season 2
Yay!!! I'm so excited that you posted a video on my birthday!!
Happy Birthday!!! 🤘
@@jasenyoface7555 thank you very much :-) I'm determined to make 33 my year
Thank you for that moment dude, bonjour from France :)
That was great, even though I don't speak French. The translation is very deep and we'll thought out. I love it. BTW- OTB is the abbreviation for Off Track Betting. It's a place where people go to bet on horse races where they aren't close enough to the track to go there. You watch the races on TVs. It's like a sports bar for people addicted to gambling. Lol
Any way. Love the content. Keep it up. Much love 💞
Thanks for this react !
Orelsan is a very genius, he start the rap in 2004, if you want understand all of lyrics, lisen first album " Perdu D'avance"
And 2nd " Le chant des sirènes" for understand the last ( "San" is on the last)
In France, Orelsan is very respected and I happy when i see Americans people have a good reaction.
Big Up' and Peace✌🏻
A pmu is an popular restaurant where you can buy cigarettes etc they play a lot of soccer game on the tv.
Hey Jase. My wife and I are OBSESSED with your channel. We feel in love with you watching Hamilton. We both have suggestions for you to listen to. Mine is Wolf Totem by The Wu and my wife’s suggestion is Miss Take by Horrorpops. I hope you enjoy and have a great day.
Hi ! If you loved this beat you'll love Dans ma ville on traîne (In my city we hang out) by Orelsan too, it's an amazing declaration of love to his City (Caen) and everything in it is amazing !
Je traîne à Caen aujourd'hui
Caennais ici ☔☔
I'm french and after this video I feel I want to do the same with English rap songs that I already loved but don't understand the whole lyrics
What a shame to listen to this without understanding the lyrics, I highly encourage everyone who doesn't understand french to go check out some traductions, really good song
You should definitely listen to "inachevé" a song he made with his mate for their movie which is (my opinion) the best they have made so far . OR listen to nepal another french artist with a similar vibe and awesome lyrics.
"quand es que ça s'arrête" is one of the most deep song of Orelsan it's talking about the problems of celebrity.
Nepal is also a realy goog artist but i'm not sur google will give a good translation of his lyrics
Yeah "quand est-ce que ça s'arrête" is awesome
IV? Bro wft
@@naova858 sorry I just miss clicked 😔
He actually made a movie you shall have a look. The BEST insightful song of his is “Inachevé” which is also the song they make at the end of the movie. An odd to all unfinished business of our lives. Please share to our non French speaking friends
Movie is called “Comment c’est loin”. I can send it to you
One of my favorite Orelsan songs! For fully understanding the impact it (and the whole album) had when it was released, you need to listen to more of his previous work, where he kept acting like a rebellious teenager, rejecting society ("Suicide social" is a good example), often violently. This 3rd album, "La fête est finie / The party's over", is not necessarily redemption, but more of a brutal realization that time has come to grow up, and not to keep pretending being a teenager ("you think you're Bart, but you're Mr.Burns", he said in this song, talking about himself). Some tracks of the album convey the same message, and other ones even put Orelsan in the role of an adult giving life advice to a teenager like he used to be ("Notes pour trop tard") or appeasing a child who faces dark aspects of the world we live in ("Tout va bien"). There are many more masterpieces in his work, but listening to these songs would at least give you a proper context and make deeper sense. Enjoy!
Man I've just discovered you through this video that arrived randomly in my recommendations, and I love what you do. It's nice to see that our local artist have an international aura that is appreciated. I thought it was a one way thing and that only US rap was flooding French platforms.
I actually rediscovered Orelsan through your ears. Thanks mate.
I'm going to watch your other videos and let you continue your Wolrd tour. If you ever decide to come back to France again, I strongly suggest Hippocampe Fou (Mad seahorse) th-cam.com/channels/_TF0o9fX25CW7ka6W7U11A.html. He created his own "aquatic rap" style. He's been on the scene for years, but remains a powerful atypical artist. And if you dig around, you'll find amazing flows in English too.
EDIT: just a tiny note on the translation, it does not affect the overall understanding, but "dirty kid" is too literal, it's actually "a brat" on a sand castle :)
Yo Jase, hope you’re doin’ well! I HIGHLY recommend a video titled “mb14 vs saro.” It’s a beatbox battle at an international annual beatbox competition, and it’s the most viewed video on the channel. Although it’s 14 minutes, it’s all worth it!🤙🏼 Keep up the good work
Another great track from Orelsan - "Suicide Social" you gonna love this one but brace yourself bro !!
You should react to The greatest Showman Greenlight Videos - Specifically the one with Keala Settle's "This is me" and Hugh Jackman's "From Now On". So great to see their passion for something they love!
French rappers, I would recommend Lomepal, he has the same vibe as Orelsan lyric-wise I'd say, and they did a track together as well called "La vérité" (the truth). His most popular songs are : "Trop beau" (too beautiful), piano-rap kinda vibe. Also "Yeux disent" (eyes tell), both very poetic tracks.
But the ones that in my opinion are the best and actually kinda like San from Orel, are "Evidemment" and maybe "Flash".
Sans oublier "Roule", "Les troubles du Seigneur", "Sur le Sol" et "Oyasumi"
Yup...you got gist of it...he's rapping about his life and career
PMU is the company that runs horse racing in France also used to describe local dive bars where compulsive gamblers mix with alcoholics all day, watching and gambling on races
Long time no see, Jase 🙋
👍 For the t-shirt !
"La fête est finie" is the title of the album. It means "Party's over". It's a very harsh song about the passage to manhood, and how it seems like his young years are over. It's also a redemption song where Orel decides to not do the same mistakes again. It's about growing up.
13:25 That what she said ! That what she said !
PMU is a chain of pubs where you can buy lottery ticket and bet on horse races. PMU are in pretty much every town, and the people going there tend to always be the same and are kinda old
I’d love to see you check out Iron by Woodkid, if you get the chance. Really enjoying the channel, you got me hooked on The Warning!
It's a very good French band, I love it!!
PMU is a bar where people bet on horses' race and mostly a place for old alcoholic to regroup
u an be proud of u!...
u right dude
Great cover, thanks for sharing!
You should check out some Twenty One Pilots. I recommend Car Radio, Lane Boy and Ode to Sleep
A PMU is a bar where old alcoholic addicts have all kinds of money games( we call them "les poivrots" in french), meet to spend the day spitting on successful people, remaking the world, the politics and talk about the football game of the senior team from the town against the guys next door as for twenty years around a bottle of red wine
Even if at the base a PMU is a tabacco shop orelsan talk of it with a similar picture
A PMU is a bar, a pub. he says that it's where anybody gives his point of view, where the TV shows informations already seen...
OTB off track betting good to see you !
I'm from switzerland and i like Orelsan!
In this song, there are a lot of references to older tracks from Orelsan..
This song is very good but it's even better if you can get the references!
Please react to "You're A Mean One Mr Grinch" from PTX. Matt's singing lead in it and it's just soo great.
Suggestion for denmark: nephew feat. LOC with “hospital” (live from Roskilde) or SUSPEKT feat Jooks with “Danmark” 😄
Nice vibe check mate

@@bertrandgrandgeorge1052 You are welcome. Peace.
8:27 A PMU is a pub 😉 (P.M.U. is a french sports bet company, and their bets can be made in pubs)
Correct but when a pub is called "pmu" it's really not a compliment. It's used for lame pubs where you will find lonely alcoholics.
Loved your video bro ! Yo should listen to "Hippocampe fou" i'm pretty sure you'll love it :)
"Obviously I have no idea what he’s talkingn about"
Me : /*facepalm*/
i don't know street-French but PMU seems to most often mean Off-Track Betting, but in one search result it seemed to mean a TV show where people are giving their opinion on the topic of the day
Hey, PMU in french is a bar where you can place legal bets on horse races ;)
Speaking of Eminem, I've had Tone Deaf on loop for the last 2 weeks. So good.
the world is a pmu.. PMU is a bar with the french bet on horses.. a lot of people and a lot of stories.. and there is no time to drink :)
I don't if someone explained that already, but a PMU is a bar/pub where people (mainly from working-class or jobless) go to have a drink and bet on horse racing or other sports. The common image people have of those bars is quite negative, as a place where conversations are about news or society facts, but where people tend to express their opinion without restrain (for better or worse), and that's what he meant when he said the whole world/society is becoming like this.
A PMU is a kind of a day bar where you can bet on horses races while drinking alcohols where everyone is saying shit about everything, it can be viewed as a symbol of an empty life
💜
Pmu is a legal bookmakers for horses races stuff in France , it 's located in bars where all drunk guys give their opinion ...
So yes
PMU : Pub with often drunk people who stand there the whole day and give opinion about the world... You know, people who you wanna say "go home you're drunk"
"Night are white but ideas are black". That's because in French we say "White night" when you skip the night and stay awake. In this case it's mostly means that his dark thought keeps him awake.
Ablaye & Skread. Skread is his beatmaker and Ablaye his producer.
"I'm still writing about a city where I don't live". He talks a lot about Caen. His home city but he lives in Paris now.
"I'll keep writing as if Michael could see it". He's a huge fan of Michael Jordan and I think he wanted to be a basket player when he was younger but dropped everything at his first defeat. Something like this.
I guess this sentence was to say "Watch me, I didn't drop rap at least"
He's talking about Michael Jackson. Not Jordan.
As an american living in france and a fan of lyricists and wordplay, Orelsan is one of the rare french rappers that I think is on a lyrical level similar to some US rappers
Listen his last album, it will blow your mind 🤯
You REALLY should listen « Suicide social » and « L’odeur de l’essence » from the same amazing artist ;)
A french Guy
yes ma caille Orelsan y déchire t'as vu !
Orelsan le GOAT
Its funny how much there is alot of english reaction videos to orelsan but no french version xD. I think that's because everybody knows him. xD
Hey man really enjoyed your reaction! If you liked this french rap with emotional/unconventional beat, i REALLY recommand you listen to Akhenaton - Mon texte le savon part III (remix), with Sébastien Damiani !! You're in for a good surprise! Cheers mate!
J'aime bien le rap , j'ai bcp de mal a
vec cette génération de rappeurs ,
surtout vu avec quoi on a grandi...
the french in force (les francais en force XD)
Ouais on est Là
For the little story... in many songs, Orelsan make reference to MJ. Here "I write every sentence as if Michael could see it".
PMU is a horse betting compagny french usually play at pubs (I'm french)
Regarding the OTB translation made for PMU
How do I send you song requests? Just found an awesome group
- PMU is like someone said a bar where you can bet on horse race and stuff. It's often a sad place with alcoholics who tries to get rich but end up losing there money in the boose and the betting. So the line means that the world is a shitty place haha
more reaction video on orelsan please!!!! 👍👍
you really should listen (and read the translation) "l odeur de l'essence" wich is nowadays his best song (music and lirycs), be ready to pick up your jawbone .....
PMU is a bar where you can also place bets, poor people go there and loose the money they have to drink and bet.
San IS like san in japanese
If you wanna discover a good french rap groupe, try IAM. Titles like: l'empire du côté obsure, Pas nait sous la même étoile, Petit frère...
I'm french so sorry for my english, but u understood the song really good without the lyrics, u seems like a passionnate men and i love this mood, if you want to hear another of this song, his repertory is diversified, just for u, if you want to listen "tout vas bien" i think this is the most pertinent of this songs
"Tout vas bien" sounds more happy, but it's more deeper for me, cause it's detstinated to a child who doesn't understand life like an adult
He's wearing his own brand.
Take a peep at "Basique" if you like Orelsan... One of his best in my opinion...
Yes, we have good rappers in France, that one particulary ! Hahaha !
Listen to Sion - The Blade
Maybe you should try to check his new songs like L'odeur de l'essence the video with it is sick
Never been a big fan of rap ,but liked this...don't know if you have listened to BTS, but if you like rap you should check out the Cyphers from their rap line than the translation/explanation videos from either xcelest or DKDV(not sure if I spelled those right). RM,Suga and J-Hope are great
Here are a few other suggestions from a french spreaker :
L'Or du Commun - Telephone
Orelsan - Basique
Gringe - Le mal est fait
Nekfeu - Nique les clones
Big Flo et Oli - Ça va trop vite (ft Busta Rhymes)
Big Flo et Oli - Je suis
suicide social est vraiment bien aussi
propre, je m'attendais pas a voir quelqu'un qui propose l'or du commun en vrai ^^
En tant que belge, je ne pouvais pas les oublier !
PMU is the place where we go to buy cigarettes, scratch games and bet on horse races.
Take a look at french QC music.

Have you reviewed Austin Brown and Home Free??
I've done a number of Home Free songs, but not heard of Austin Brown
@@jasenyoface7555 He is the tenor of Home Free
Oh, then Yes 😆
Try the song Suicide social from Orelsan too, I think you will appreciate it!
Link of the clip with translation: th-cam.com/video/1aWn7hqXqX8/w-d-xo.html
The "Orelsan" nickname comes from the beginning his real first name (Aurélien Cotentin) and the Japanese neutral suffix "san". BTW, Orelsan might be compared to Eminem for his writing, but on a technical level (even if his solid flow is legit) there are other French rappers like Féfé or Leeroy Kesiah who are way more skilled than him.
If you want to listen to other powerful sh!t, check out "Soldat fou" or "Mental Offishall" :

A PMU (Pari Mutuel Urbain : On-Track Betting) is usually a French café where you can also buy cigarettes and play lottery or horse races. It's a place for informal encounters and conversations.
