about

I discovered the original and loved the funky disco vibe, so I turned it into a DJ-friendly edit, adding more energy to the artist's original intention.

DJ-friendly edit with full wrapping, intro lengthening, outro adding, and parts messing. Some instruments were replayed to keep the original vibe with a more modern sound.

Joe Dassin was an American-French singer-songwriter and actor. In the 1970s, Dassin's songs were at the top of the charts in France, and he became immensely popular there. "Maria" is the first song on the B-side of the "Les Femmes de ma vie" album released in 1978.

lyrics

Tu passes dans mes insomnies comme un soleil de nuit
Tu es le visage inconnu du paradis perdu

Maria, Maria, sans tes yeux, sans ton corps, sans ta voix
Maria, Maria, je ne suis que la moitié de moi

Je te cherche partout comme un chien, comme un fou
J'ai donné à mon rêve ton nom
Et c'est lui qui m'réveille et c'est lui que j'appelle
A tous les vents de mes illusions

Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria
Maria, Maria, je ne suis que la moitie de moi

Je ne retrouve le matin que le gris quotidien
Tu disparais dans les fumées de la réalité

Maria, Maria, sans tes yeux, sans ton corps, sans ta voix
Maria, Maria je ne suis que la moitié de moi

Je voudrais me lever, je voudrais te toucher
Et je sais que tu n'es pas très loin
Et qu'au fond de tes nuits tu m'attends toi aussi
Mais c'est long la moitié du chemin

Maria, Maria, sans tes yeux, sans ton corps, sans ta voix
Maria, Maria, je ne suis que la moitié de moi

Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria
