4 stars 1. Love/Hate with the narrative intro to announce the concept film; Quercus explains his role, his life over a grandiloquent rock sound; classic synths, Christian singing like his very theatrical son, an omen; fat synths 2. Living With The Heart and the synths that continue, Quercus like the schoolmaster of the famous film narrates each title; on classy pop with colorful lyrics from Christian 3. Les Plaisirs Faciles with an energetic riff, a metronomic keyboard, an overly typical text and a very marked marshmallow piece where the drums float on a 'Subway'-style soup; go to the autumn winter catalog on sale 4. Gold, Silver and Light divine or angelic intro choose for a beautiful progressive piece that would have deserved to be played in concert; arpeggio, period harpsichord, languorous voice, explosion and orgasmic rise in D minor for a fresco... hey can you hear me? The chorus is a bit dated with a not-so-innocuous wake-up call; solo, voice and the dreamlike crescendo starts again; the catchy drum-synth finale, the guitar solo which, on the verge of good hard rock, makes this piece enjoyable with the riff eyeing another angelic title, the panard

5. Breaking the Ice ...if the Phrygian is ignorant...the title soft like a nursery rhyme for the text to incorporate and forget the rest; well the world is crazy there is nothing more to do; the stereo choirs, the syrupy keyboard, the latency, the sticky guitar solo and the Louis Jouvet-style voice as tendentious as ever 6. Les Amours-Lumières with one of the most beautiful songs on the album to the point that I have to dry my tears; sweetness, emotion, spleen, memory, intrinsic beauty; the real, imaginary sax adds the romantic tear to this air which unfolds on its own, with a particular flavor of concentrated 80-90 prog latency 7. No!! for the cry of... revolt with a cheerful air and a somewhat simplistic text where the keyboard takes the lion's share, yes Jean-Pierre must have been happy; narrated text without image or almost, push me yes well even for a witch it's olé I wrote; the most this solo which tears Haasien and Hardien to finish the enjoyment 8. Great Feelings go Louis finally Quercus go ahead we listen to you; a hymn to revolt on a fresh, changing but vintage keyboard, the voice-orchestration association is slow to come together and only the guitar saves this piece a little. 9. Sève Qui Peu arrives, Quercus with its bio-nature message a little eco-friendly before its time; rumbling synth aided by the metronomic drums introducing the anthem, the march towards the Elysée, uh the Bastille; a grandiloquent text on a tune of the same lineage, a crescendo which gives a little air with this last guitar solo which reminds us that Ange had great guitarists, two here in addition; the finale returns to the sound of the start before a drum roll.
