Im not sure if anyone knew, this is about his life. His father died in the rwanda homocide about 23 years ago, during work. The song is saying "dad where are you" And the mother syas hes at work to hide that his father is dead.
The Real Potato, it’s called papaoutai because that is how it sounds without context or knowledge. If someone was to sound it out, it would most likely get spelt that way. If there is a more significant reason behind it, i would love to know. However, that is my understanding
@@nicholaspalmer2051 the song is a story asking where the father is, and the mother's response that he is at work to hide the fact the father has died. the words themselves, ou t'es papa ou t'es, is the question where are you father? It is a personal song about Stromae's father, who was killed in the Rwandan genocide.
I was growing up without my father. He left me when I was one month and my mom. Now I had a "father" but I can't accept him :,( This is so hard...but now I have a sister and she's one year old...and I'm so happy...
Omg the same thing is happening to me. My dad left when I was 6 and I never saw him again and now i have a step dad I don’t like and my sister is 1 too. How old are you if you don’t mind me asking?
I am studying French in high school, at first it is a bit difficult but you get used to it and you may like many French songs. It is very good to study another language.
Im pretty sure in france the french people call Stromae the "Song Blacksmith " or something like that cause of how well he puts words together or something😂 i just heard this from my french teacher
Pour ce qui ne savent pas, le personnage sur l'image viens du manga Chobits. Son nom c'est Tchi et c'est un ordinateur. ~ For the people that don't know, the character on the picture is from the manga Chobits. Her name is Tchi and she is a computeur.
According to my French teacher, the original composer (Stromaé)'s father left him as a child. This song is meant for children who grew up without fathers.
I understand stand the lyrics and I'm not French, if you watch the original version of the song you may be able to understand . If anyone wants me to explain I can. 😊
Since the age of four I've grown up without my mom only getting to see her once every year for 2-3 months . This song kinda reminds me of her to be honest except of papa It would be for me mama.
Btw I'm in 1st year goin into second year in September so I only learned a small bit of French cos my teacher is always out. So the only things I could translate in that sentence without looking underneath was Je =I anglais =English Musique = music And Français = French 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Oui, we do. Well, Je suis Romanian. Here French stuff is really popular, but I study German at school, so I don't know too much français. I learned with Indila and Stramae's songs.
I feel like this song shouldnt be nightcored ;-; its too high pitched for me....okay i lied its growing on me the more i listen to it lol and I love it!!!
Kitty He's singing the song in French!😁 I've heard this song in English once. It sucked worse than a busted heavy-duty shop-vacuum!😨 I'll take the French sie vous plea.

Wow I've listened to the song so many times but it never occurred to me that he could be talking about his real life.
Papa où t'es 😢😢
I wonder what his relationship with his mom is like now 0.0
😢 That is really sad
@@rubysroom9469she's at work now too

Sweety Honey so why the title is "papaoutai"
it's the great form "ou t'es papa ou t'es", i say this cause i'm french :'D

This is so good! I really enjoy Stromae in nightcore ^^
I like the nightcores which is only pitched, not faster.
super ! très beau nightcore !

Love it!!!
I used a translator and its meant to mean "Where are you dad?"
oh
According to my French teacher, the original composer (Stromaé)'s father left him as a child. This song is meant for children who grew up without fathers.
Eevee The Memer I heard something about that too
yah, our French teacher showed us too and I was wow
the video almost made me cry lmao but I really like his music, it actually means something
didn't leave him, was killed during the Rwandan Genocide
I am a tad nervous to see what the translation to this song is...
...I’m getting some sadder vibes despite the rapping bits.
I like it even thought it is French
It isn't important what language music is in. Music is more than nations.
I understand stand the lyrics and I'm not French, if you watch the original version of the song you may be able to understand . If anyone wants me to explain I can. 😊
IT'S BELGIAN OMG

xD I heard sacre bleu and laughed alot
is this fan art of something? It is very lovely.
It's hard to tell. It's looks exactly like the original artists style so I doubt it's actually fanart.

Now that Ive been speaking English for over a year, I know what you English-ers mean... French is a bit smexy
I haveno clue what he sayin... HALP
Kitty - MMD and more its in French, its really a sad song tbh, like I'm learning French and my French teacher showed our class and I almost cried lmao
Kitty He's singing the song in French!😁 I've heard this song in English once. It sucked worse than a busted heavy-duty shop-vacuum!😨 I'll take the French sie vous plea.
Both of you where super helpful XD
He talks about his dad , he asks "where are you dad?" Because he must feels alone , I advice you to look for subtitles on Ytb or idk 🌝
Do you want me to translate the whole song to you ? I am French so I think that I can help ;)
Que s'appelle le type d'argot en quelle vous échangez les parties d'un mot? (Désolé pour mon français, je viens des Etats-Unis :p)
Argot ? J'ai pas compris de quoi tu veux parler .
Wouldn't the title be ''Papa ou t'ai'' instead of "Papaoutai"?
France surrenders but they know how to make cool songs.
