Her best song is "Formidable". Clip shot without the knowledge of passers-by who believed that Stromae was really intoxicated. A snub to our Buzz company
@@lestatmt I invite you to listen to the title quoted. And above all to listen to the lyrics. So maybe you are not an emotional person, but this is one of those most touching songs. And the video clip is real
I keep on feeling so bad for everyone in the world that never heard the incredible music of Stromae. In Europe and here in the Netherlands he was and still is well known. My biggest regret is to have never seen him perform live. Please check out all his music, brilliant without exception!
i remember when i was younger my parents urged me to watch this and a year later we also watched the live thing on tv and it was amazing how they did this live too. btw i'm also from the netherlands and this used to be my favorite song
Où sont les Francophones? J'adore ça. Dereck, continue de nous faire plaisir à travers tes réactions. Stromae is my favorite singer. This song talks about the missing of a father always working and he haven't time for his child. Where are you Father? 🥺
There is sadly something more to this song. His father died in the Rwanda’s genocide and had barely spend time with his son before that. You can feel the regrets of the artist.
he struggles with depression a lot so that's why you probably haven't heard from him much lately. He does still write music though, but he likes staying out of the public eye.
@@brigittesnelson2354 he also struggled with Paludisme (Malaria?) And the treatment got him really weakened. Not to mention the burn out he went through with his skyrocketing fame.
wow, I never knew that, you made me want to look up for the history behind the music, as a foreign I just thought it was a great song EDIT: and made me want to learn some french
Little anecdote : Stromae arrived at a NRJ Music awards ceremony in model mode as in the clip (in the same car too) and was carried by 4 men on the red carpet to the interior
The reason you find it odd Dereck is perhaps because there is a tragic explanation to this song, a tribute to his dad and other people killed during the genocide in Rwanda in 1994. Makes it even edgier and profound
You know he is a Belgian artist (from my country) this song is about his father leaving when he was a young boy it's actually really sad. I am impressed that you reacted to that
The song is about absent Fathers, the "Narrator" been the CHild that ask the question or is been asked by others "Where is your Father?" ("ou est ton Papa?"). Stromae is playing the Missing Father in this clip, that is represented by a Doll/Mannequin, the Kid seeing and watching other kids been with their parents (All the dancers are an adult and a child, either they found Dancers that had kids that also danced, or they found matched pairs that looked close enough for the illusion to work) By the End you see that the Doll/manequin "dance" with his Son, it is the Kid imagining what it would be like to have his Father with him, Stromae dancing is Stiff, cause the kids is imagining it has such, never knowed his father personaly, he can only imagine him how he would do it, but with only a Stiff Father figure, thats all he can do. By the end the Kid is also becoming stiff as the Father's Mannequin, cause of the Fear of also been an absentee Father when its turn will come, the fear and anxiety to repeat what you lived through. Stromae's Father was killed in the rwanda's genocide, so he hardly knew him and grw up without a father, this song is a dedication to his father, but also to all the people who had to grew up without a father figure. Its something that tocuhes me, cause i also never knew my father, he died when i was 1yro from a work accident,a nd my Mother had to bring me up on her own with my grandparents.
Formidable, Tous les Mêmes, Quand c'est, Carmen, House'llelujah, Te Quiero are all unforgettable, Stromae is a king, a genius, best artist of our generation !
i love the line "everybody knows how to make babies, but nobody knows how to make papas" bc it's so true, nobody really knows how to be a good parent and so way too many parents fuck it up. there's so much more to being a parents than just having a child
In a certain way, I feel like this video has a kind of Van Gogh energy. Almost surreal imagery, but in a way where it looks warped and chaotic on the surface, but then it reveals another layer of reality to you.
Hi Dereck ! I just discovered your channel and I'm really glad it happens to be about French/French speaking singers (let's not forget that Stromae is Belgian😊). I'm French and I often wondered how French music was perceived outside our borders. Thanks for your amazing analysis! Take good care and see you on your next video! 😉
Alors on danse... the video where he "explains" how the writing of that song was done, together with a French comedian. If you can get it that is but it's hilarious
Amazing to see you react to French music haha. You should react to "Stay on these road" or "summer moved on" (the lead singer broke a world record with this last song) from A-ha, a Norwegian band (you surely know "take on me") They're just fabulous and I'm sure you will lost your bananas!
I always compares him like a lady gaga from belgium, all things given to us are calculated with a phenomenal precision. From belgium, he's considered like their new "jacques brel", artist from 50 60's very drama and lyrical
Stromae is quite unique, in how he became famous, look at his teaching videos, or his crowd experiments in metros or in the streets pretending to be drunk or whatever, he records his vocals in public sometimes and soon people notice who he is and film him, etc... It's rare to fill stadiums with techno music...
I highly recommend you "Quand c'est" from Stromae, probably one of the most touching and emotional song I've heard :) regarding a topic hardly ever talked about in the music industry
Stromae is an amazing artist who is both loved by young and old people. He mix old stuff with new one. He made his own beats that appeal to young people but sings like a man in the 70's. While doing this, he also make amazing music video with original dances. The music that you called "salsa" is actually a very usual tempo from Congo. Stromae is very gifted as he associates different styles in his music. Most of all, he is like a poet. It's sad you can't understand french. But just know his lyrics are always profound and have different meaning. The title "Papaoutai" can be translated by "Where are you, dad?" but il can also mean "To be duped". You can see the boy missing his dad. His mom always lie to him saying that his father is here but he works all the time. So the kid imagine a dummy of his father. Because it's fake he can't bond with him. So the boy become more and more frustrated and envious of the kids who have parents. At the end, he misses his dad so much he duped himself thinking the dummy is real and he actually had a dad too. The clip, the music, the song, the dance and the lyrics are amazing.
Pentatonix and Lindsey Stirling made a cover of this song a few years ago and only for the fact that their French is pretty good you guys should take a look at it 😊
It's not just the video, but the words too. Together makes it powerful. Especially when they finally dance together but actually it is only the child dancing while the dad sit's in the car
Tous les Mêmes Ave Cesaria Peace or Violence Formidable And the list can go on and on... Stromae is a legend in music and I absolutely love his creativity in his music, his clothing line and even his stage name & clothing line name... everything!!!
I tried to reproduce that piano intro (when he starts singing) on the piano and I realized how special it was (harmonically and rythmically). Love this song
Hello Dereck, you should listen "Mr/Mme" by Loïc Nottet. Another wonderful Belgian singer (also author, compositor and beautiful dancer). Greetings from Belgium 🇧🇪🇧🇪🇧🇪
Stromae is really strong .. He is the one who plays the "puppet" and who dense .. He can do everything, he started by giving piano lessons I think. I am French and I love watching your reactions they are superb haha thank you
Fun fact: that is actually not a mannequin but Stromae himself, wearing a LOT of makeup to achieve that plastic look. Another thing I found interesting is that for the visuals of this video he apparently drew a lot of inspiration from Tintin which is both funny because Tintin and Stromae are both Belgian, but also sort of funny in a “reclaiming” way due to the, uh… questionable…. Representation of people of color usually present in Tintin albums. There's a video from some Belgian music awards show where Stromae performs this song live after being carried up to the stage by four people, all the way from the parking outside, while he's keeping perfectly still and has this terrifying mannequin-esque smile like in this video. Talk about performance artistry.
I couldn't help but think of Michael Jackson and his father with the boy and his father in the yellow suits, it's a nice Outlook because at first the boy is jealous of the kids with their parents until he notices the negative/toxic aspects of the relationships, and starts to look at his "father" in a more positive way
I knew you would like it :) you can check out the songs, TOUS LES MÊMES which is funny as he plays the man and the woman in this duality, the dancing part are crazy; QUAND C'EST which in fact is about cancer (the disease) and it sounds the same as "quand c'est" which means "when is it coming". The visual is amazing; CARMEN is just amazing too as the video is an anime talking about Twitter. I cant wait to see you react to all these gems :)
My favorite song from Stromae is "Moules frites" but there isn't an official videoclip but I invite to discover it 😊 I would like to see your reaction about Christine And The Queens for a next video
I don't know if you've ever reacted to korean songs (no, not BTS) but there are a few classics that are worth listening to (courtesy of my friend's mom lmao) a chance encounter (어쩌다마주친그대) by Falcon (송골매) 미지의 세계 (Unknown World) by 조용필 (CHO YONG PIL) cho yong pil is a legend in korea apparently
Story behind this track : Stromae is half tutsi half flemish - when he was a child his father return to rwanda to visit some family members but never came back which caused the child to be raised by a single mother who refused to talk about his father. As an adult he learned that his father had sadly been one of the (many) victims of the 1994 rwandan genocide. This entire song is recounting the confusion and frustration of the lost child he was when he believed his father had left out of hatred for his household. Stromae is a very personal artist - he touches on many subjects with musical influences that are generally latino and/or african. I suggest the song " Tous Les Mêmes " that was written by him from the perspective of a woman tired to deal with abusive men. Or " Ta fête " which is about social anxiety and familial rejection.
Hi Dereck! Thanks for the reaction! If you wanna make your playlist amazing, you should totally react to Gin Wigmore and Loic Nottet (two different artist heeh)
Stromae was born in Belgium from a Rwandese father and Belgian mother. His father left his family to go back to Rwanda to live there, where he was later killed during the Rwandese genocide in 1994.
Stromae is really incredible, i hope he drop a another album someday, i miss him. I recommend you Carmen and Tous les mêmes if you want to listen more of him !

The bad thing is when the babies become bad dads and disappear again
@@dragonfly7084 he didn't disapear he died on Rwanda
@@Shaiapoufff the father was gone from Stromae's life long before he died
this sentence is very strong, if you don't know the lyrics and don't understand French you might think this is a very happy song, but it is not
@@yhhkj529 even as a kid i was crying at this without having seen the video

I'm from Québec and he's huge here too. He's been on the radio for years. Definitely a cultural icon.
Où sont les Francophones? J'adore ça. Dereck, continue de nous faire plaisir à travers tes réactions. Stromae is my favorite singer. This song talks about the missing of a father always working and he haven't time for his child.

Stromae is a true genius
Stromae is a singer from my country of Belgium and it is he himself who makes his own music, the piano is therefore him 😊
Nice I didn't know, that piano harmonies and rythm sound very unique. I tried to reproduce them on the piano and realize how special it was
You cannot explore Stromae without reacting to Alors On Dance!!!!! It was a major WW hit!
This was last week reaction iirc.
The song is about absent Fathers, the "Narrator" been the CHild that ask the question or is been asked by others "Where is your Father?" ("ou est ton Papa?").
Stromae is playing the Missing Father in this clip, that is represented by a Doll/Mannequin, the Kid seeing and watching other kids been with their parents (All the dancers are an adult and a child, either they found Dancers that had kids that also danced, or they found matched pairs that looked close enough for the illusion to work)
By the End you see that the Doll/manequin "dance" with his Son, it is the Kid imagining what it would be like to have his Father with him, Stromae dancing is Stiff, cause the kids is imagining it has such, never knowed his father personaly, he can only imagine him how he would do it, but with only a Stiff Father figure, thats all he can do.
By the end the Kid is also becoming stiff as the Father's Mannequin, cause of the Fear of also been an absentee Father when its turn will come, the fear and anxiety to repeat what you lived through.
Stromae's Father was killed in the rwanda's genocide, so he hardly knew him and grw up without a father, this song is a dedication to his father, but also to all the people who had to grew up without a father figure.

Amo a Stromae , sin duda es un genio ❤️
I love so much these guys : Stromae and Dereck!!
The outfit is available, he has created a fashion brand MOSAERT
He compose his own music, it's him on the piano =)
The video of Tous les mêmes is a masterpiece
I highly recommend you "Quand c'est" from Stromae, probably one of the most touching and emotional song I've heard :) regarding a topic hardly ever talked about in the music industry
As a french i saw a concert in NYC, so so so great
Dereck, ...Stromae - Tous Les Mêmes (Clip Officiel) ;)
Hi Dereck, Thanks for reacting on this amazing song.
FYI, the guitar pattern you can hear all along the song is a 100% Congolese Rumba style.
Thank you for sharing this. We hear this a lot in Dominican music and I'm grateful to learn about the origin.
Stromae is an amazing artist who is both loved by young and old people. He mix old stuff with new one. He made his own beats that appeal to young people but sings like a man in the 70's.

Stromae!! Un artiste qui a définitivement changer ma façon de voir la musique et de la faire. J’adore!
7 years later, i still remember the lyrics.
My favorite is "everyone knows how to do babies,but nobody knows how to do daddies" . Love you Stromae
Amazing reaction/amazing music/amazing video
Welcome to Belgium 🇧🇪🇧🇪🇧🇪🇧🇪
You should do a reaction from Gregory Lemarchal "écrit l'histoire", "je suis en vie ", " sos d'un Terrien en détresse".good song !!

Are you aware that Pentatonix has a great video of their performance of papaoutai! You should react to it!
Pentatonix performs the same song fantastically. You should be sure to watch it.
I recommend you "Formidable" (by Stromae)
I tried to reproduce that piano intro (when he starts singing) on the piano and I realized how special it was (harmonically and rythmically). Love this song
Hello Dereck, you should listen "Mr/Mme" by Loïc Nottet. Another wonderful Belgian singer (also author, compositor and beautiful dancer).
Greetings from Belgium 🇧🇪🇧🇪🇧🇪
His name is Maestro in reverse. Stromae.
Extraordinary artist
Stromae is a real genius, he has his musical world. His songs are unique experiences. VIVE Stromae
Superbe Dereck ses réactions sont magnifiques car il ressent les emotions et vie la bonne musique ,j'adore
Dude watch his whole concert! You will be sooo amazed!
This song always makes me emotional, and I still to this day don't know exactly why
I didn’t know this one , love the song and dancing ! Ou t’es means where are you ? The beats is very African !
Stromae is really strong .. He is the one who plays the "puppet" and who dense .. He can do everything, he started by giving piano lessons I think. I am French and I love watching your reactions they are superb haha thank you
love your videos
The mark of a great genius is to suround yourself with other geniuses. That is Stromae. An incredible artist.
This song is sooooo good
Perfect reaction 👏
Fun fact: that is actually not a mannequin but Stromae himself, wearing a LOT of makeup to achieve that plastic look.
Another thing I found interesting is that for the visuals of this video he apparently drew a lot of inspiration from Tintin which is both funny because Tintin and Stromae are both Belgian, but also sort of funny in a “reclaiming” way due to the, uh… questionable…. Representation of people of color usually present in Tintin albums.
There's a video from some Belgian music awards show where Stromae performs this song live after being carried up to the stage by four people, all the way from the parking outside, while he's keeping perfectly still and has this terrifying mannequin-esque smile like in this video. Talk about performance artistry.
Oh, and the rythm at the end is inspired by African Guitar rythm.. You should also check that out!!
Tout mon soutien à votre démarche courageuse et honnête, merci, infiniment pour l'ensemble de votre travail qui d'une extrême importance. 😉👍
Cancer and Ta Fete is an incredible song as well a very interpretive video. Highly recommended. His lyrics always have something to say
Huge it in Belgium obviously, in France and in many countries. The entire album has many hits with many cool music videos.
Grand Artiste!!!!!
Stromae is from Maestro.. all is said.
More .. formidable et tous les mêmes !!!!
Stromae is not only a singer... he have something more... look at «formidable» and the featuring with orelsan call «la pluie»
yes, the duo with Orelsan is wonderfull!!! love it!
It's a mixture of African beats/rhythm & European Dance.
I couldn't help but think of Michael Jackson and his father with the boy and his father in the yellow suits, it's a nice Outlook because at first the boy is jealous of the kids with their parents until he notices the negative/toxic aspects of the relationships, and starts to look at his "father" in a more positive way
Stromae doesn't do music, he does ART
Jejejeje, super ver tu reaccion de esta cancion me sorprendi ver le habias hecho una reaccion, saludos desde Mexico!
Un pur génie !! Espérons qu'il revienne
I saw him live twice and he was amazing!
Guitar style looks like African music or Zouk, the West indies music style.
The only song I can't listen to without crying
The full album is just fantastic. Stromae is awesome.
"Quand c'est" by Stromae, you ll need a translation for this one, a real piece of art
yesssssssssssssss
I knew you would like it :) you can check out the songs, TOUS LES MÊMES which is funny as he plays the man and the woman in this duality, the dancing part are crazy; QUAND C'EST which in fact is about cancer (the disease) and it sounds the same as "quand c'est" which means "when is it coming". The visual is amazing; CARMEN is just amazing too as the video is an anime talking about Twitter. I cant wait to see you react to all these gems :)
'Humain à l'eau" from Stromae will blow your ears away
Dereck, you should check Carmen, it's just brilliant. Thank u.
My favorite song from Stromae is "Moules frites" but there isn't an official videoclip but I invite to discover it 😊
I would like to see your reaction about Christine And The Queens for a next video
Stromae is an anagram for Maestro
I don't know if you've ever reacted to korean songs (no, not BTS) but there are a few classics that are worth listening to (courtesy of my friend's mom lmao)

I prefer Toutes les mêmes, or Formidable ;)
Dereck is formidable !
Hi Dereck! If you liked this video and the Stromae's universe, you will love his song TOUS LES MÊMES. The clip is amazing
Story behind this track :
Stromae is half tutsi half flemish - when he was a child his father return to rwanda to visit some family members but never came back which caused the child to be raised by a single mother who refused to talk about his father. As an adult he learned that his father had sadly been one of the (many) victims of the 1994 rwandan genocide.
This entire song is recounting the confusion and frustration of the lost child he was when he believed his father had left out of hatred for his household.
Stromae is a very personal artist - he touches on many subjects with musical influences that are generally latino and/or african.
I suggest the song " Tous Les Mêmes " that was written by him from the perspective of a woman tired to deal with abusive men. Or " Ta fête " which is about social anxiety and familial rejection.
Hi Dereck! Thanks for the reaction! If you wanna make your playlist amazing, you should totally react to Gin Wigmore and Loic Nottet (two different artist heeh)
Stromae was born in Belgium from a Rwandese father and Belgian mother. His father left his family to go back to Rwanda to live there, where he was later killed during the Rwandese genocide in 1994.
The singer is the dancer at the end !
Hi Dereck! Listen peace or violence!
STROMAE = STRO MAE = MAE STRO
Stromae is really incredible, i hope he drop a another album someday, i miss him. I recommend you Carmen and Tous les mêmes if you want to listen more of him !
