This is a singer I discovered in 1979 when I was 19.
I don't speak fluent French, but I love the language and I've been in France and Belgium and I learned some French at high school.
To me this is one of Lio's best songs, and I'm singing along with her.
Lio was born in Portugal and her real name is Wanda.

This article is about the Portuguese-born pop singer and actress. For other uses, see Lio (disambiguation).

27:35 - La Petite Amazone

Les soleils de Babylone sont montés sur des pylônes
Ils ne dorent pas la peau de la petite Amazone.
Les chefs d'états sur leurs trônes et l'austérité qu'ils prônent
L'ennui n'aura pas la peau de la petite Amazone.

Non la Petite Amazone, non la Petite Amazone
Non la Petite Amazone n'a besoin de personne, de personne.
Non la Petite Amazone, non la Petite Amazone
Non la Petite Amazone n'a besoin de personne, de personne.

Dans sa combinaison jaune, danse, danse sauvageonne.
Les batteurs frappent leurs peaux pour la petite Amazone.
Les soupirants, les grands Meaulnes n'ont jamais reçu l'aumône
Le droit d'effleurer la peau de la petite Amazone.

Non la Petite Amazone, non la Petite Amazone
Non la Petite Amazone n'a besoin de personne, de personne.
Non la Petite Amazone, non la Petite Amazone
Non la Petite Amazone n'a besoin de personne, de personne.

Les soleils de Babylone sont montés sur des pylônes
Ils ne dorent pas la peau de la petite Amazone.

Non la Petite Amazone, non la Petite Amazone
Non la Petite Amazone n'a besoin de personne, de personne.

Non la Petite Amazone, non la Petite Amazone
Non la Petite Amazone n'a besoin de personne, de personne.
De personne.

Lyrics in English:

The suns of Babylon are mounted on pylons
They do not brown the skin of the little Amazon.
The heads of state on their thrones and the austerity they advocate
Boredom will not have the skin of the little Amazon.

Not the Little Amazon, not the Little Amazon
No, the Little Amazon needs no one, no one.
Not the Little Amazon, not the Little Amazon
No, the Little Amazon needs no one, no one.

In her yellow jumpsuit, dance, wild dance.
The drummers hit their skins for the little Amazon.
The suitors, the great Meaulnes have never received alms
The right to touch the skin of the little Amazon.

Not the Little Amazon, not the Little Amazon
No, the Little Amazon needs no one, no one.
Not the Little Amazon, not the Little Amazon
No, the Little Amazon needs no one, no one.

The suns of Babylon are mounted on pylons
But do not brown the skin of the little Amazon.

Not the Little Amazon, not the Little Amazon
No, the Little Amazon needs no one, no one.

Not the Little Amazon, not the Little Amazon
No, the Little Amazon needs no one, no one.
Belongs to nobody.

14:50 Amoureux solitaires – Lio

Eh toi dis-moi que tu m'aimes
Même si c'est un mensonge et qu'on n'a pas une chance
La vie est si triste, dis-moi que tu m'aimes
Tous les jours sont les mêmes, j'ai besoin de romance

Un peu de beauté plastique pour effacer nos cernes
De plaisir chimique pour nos cerveaux trop ternes
Que nos vies aient l'air d'un film parfait

Eh toi dis-moi que tu m'aimes
Même si c'est un mensonge puisque je sais que tu mens
La vie est si triste, dis-moi que tu m'aimes
Oublions tout nous-mêmes, ce que nous sommes vraiment

Amoureux solitaires dans une ville morte
Amoureux imaginaires après tout qu'importe!
Que nos vies aient l'air d'un film parfait...

Solitary Lovers
Hey you, tell me that you love me
Even if it's a lie
And I don't have a chance.
Life is so sad,
Tell me that you love me.
All the days are the same
I need romance

A little plastic beauty
to erase the shadows under our eyes,
Chemical pleasure
For our too dull brains.
May our lives seem
Like a perfect film!

Hey you, tell me that you love me
Even if it's not true
Since I know you're lying
Life is so sad
Tell me that you love me
Let's all forget ourselves,
What we really are.

Solitary lovers
In a dead town
Imaginary lovers
After all, what does it matter
May our lives seem
Like a perfect film

La la la la la...
