For Eurovision 2024, France is counting on one of its most popular artists: Slimane
The participation of the author, composer, and performer Slimane was officially announced on Wednesday morning on France Inter, and his song for the competition, “Mon amour,” was revealed today on France 2.
This track, which the artist “truly envisioned for Eurovision,” according to Alexandra Redde-Amiel, the head of delegation and director of entertainment at France Télévisions, will be “emotionally charged.” On Tuesday night, in front of a handful of media invited to France Télévisions, she specified that while Slimane’s candidacy had already been considered for the 2023 edition, discussions had begun “quite some time ago.”
Slimane appeals to all audiences. He is liked by both young and older people; he manages to connect with everyone. And then, at Eurovision, there is a part of sensitivity and emotion that the viewer must feel. He succeeds in conveying that both in his performance and in his writing. We believe it can be something absolutely beautiful.
Emphasizes Alexandra Redde-Amiel
Speaking on France Inter, Slimane expressed feeling “happy and stressed.” “It was important for me to have the right song,” he declared to Léa Salamé. “I wanted to be proud of my song, of what I want to convey.” When asked about his potential fear of a disappointing result, he responded, “If the story is beautiful, all the better. If it’s a little less beautiful, maybe it will be part of my story, and I might turn it into a song.”
In the statement from France Télévisions, Slimane describes his participation as an “immense pride” and a “real responsibility.”
On May 11, 2024, I will sing in front of nearly 200 million people, I will sing for my parents. For my daughter. For France. And for you, you for whom I wrote this song…
Says Slimane
Success Collection
After trying his luck in various talent shows such as “Nouvelle Star” and “X Factor,” Slimane was revealed to the general public in 2016 in the fifth season of “The Voice,” which he won. Since then, he has been collecting certified gold, platinum, or diamond successes. Among his hits are “Paname,” “Viens on s’aime,” “Les choses simples” in a duet with Jenifer, “La recette,” and “Des milliers de je t’aime.”
His collaboration with Vitaa on the VersuS project also marked the French musical landscape between 2019 and 2021 with hits like “Ça va ça vient,” “Je te le donne,” or “Avant toi.” His studio albums, totaling more than two million copies sold, have all reached number 1 in France as well as in French-speaking Belgium and Switzerland.
Now 34 years old, the artist also uses his talents as a songwriter and composer for others. Since this year, Slimane is also a coach on “The Voice Kids” on TF1, a role he will continue in 2024.
Lyrics “Mon amour” Slimane
Franche
Mon amour
Dis-moi à quoi tu penses
Si tout ça a un sens
Désolé si j’te dérange
Mon amour
Te souviens-tu de nous
Du premier rendez-vous
C’était beau, c’était fou
Je t’aime
J’sais pas pourquoi
Je rejoue la scène
Mais c’est toujours la même fin qui recommence
Tu n’entends pas
Ma peine, on en fait quoi?
Est-ce que tu m’aimes, ou pas
Mon amour
Je ferai tout c’que je peux
Un océan dans le feu
L’impossible si tu le veux
Oh mon amour
Allez reviens a Paris
Fais-le pour nous je t’en supplie
Je le promets j’ai compris
Je t’aime
J’sais pas pourquoi
Je rejoue la scène
Mais c’est toujours la même fin qui recommence
Tu n’entends pas
Ma peine, on en fait quoi?
Est-ce que tu m’aimes, ou pas
Dis-moi l’endroit, je t’attendrai
Et si tu r’viens pas, je t’attendrai
C’est bête je sais, je le ferai
Rempli d’espoir, je t’attendrai
Je t’aime
J’sais pas pourquoi
Je rejoue la scène
Mais c’est toujours la même fin qui recommence
Tu n’entends pas
Ma peine, on en fait quoi?
Est-ce que tu m’aimes?
Est-ce que tu m’aimes?
Est-ce que tu m’aimes?
Est-ce que tu m’aimes?
Ou pаѕ

My love
Tell me what’s on your mind
If all of this makes sense
Sorry if I disturb you
My love
Do you remember us
Our first meeting
It was beautiful, it was insane
I love you
I don’t know why
I play the scene again
But it’s always the same ending that keeps repeating
Don’t you hear
What do we do, about my pain?
Do you love me, or not?
My love
I’ll do all that I can
Create an ocean in the fire
The impossible if you want me to
Oh my love
Please come back to Paris
Do it for us I am begging you
I promise I learned my lesson
I love you
I don’t know why
I play the scene again
But it’s always the same ending that keeps repeating
Don’t you hear
What do we do, about my pain?
Do you love me, or not?
Tell me the place, I’ll wait for you
And if you don’t come, I’ll still wait for you
I know it’s silly, but that’s what I’ll do
Filled with hope, I’ll wait for you
I love you
I don’t know why
I play the scene again
But it’s always the same ending that keepѕ repeating
Don’t you hear
What do we do, about my pаin?
Do you love me?
Do you love me?
Do you love me?
Do you love me?
Or not
