	A l'ombre d'une jeune fille en pierre... J'ai passé l'hiver A l'ombre d'une jeune fille en pierre... J'ai passé l'hiver Dans ton regard, autrefois nacré... J'ai pu voir une lueur perler A l'ombre d'une jeune fille en pierre... J'ai passé l'hiver A l'ombre d'une jeune fille en pierre... J'ai passé l'hiver Quand diamant à ton doigt j'ai passé De marbre tu es restée... Dans tes veines blanches au ciseau taillé Le nom d'un homme presque effacé Parfois à force de te fixer Je te sens bouger. Je te sens bouger Parfois à force de te fixer Je te sens bouger. Je te sens bouger Ta peau j'aimerais pouvoir caresser Sans risquer de l'éroder Parfois à force de te fixer Je te sens bouger. Je te sens bouger Parfois à force de te fixer Je te sens bouger. Je te sens bouger De ton piédestal, lentement descendrait Mais ma vestale reste figée

About a year ago, we released the eponymous album from COUR DE RÉCRÉ as part of our New Adventures In Pop collection, and we were just enamored with the freshness and ease of Quentin, Stan and Chloé and their synthesized electronic pop with francophone legacies. That album closed with the song, “À L'ombre D'une Jeune Fille En Pierre”, a track that begins with a bucolic, melancholy melody and ends up mutating into an exquisite exercise in disco-funk, guided by Chloé’s delicate voice. It tells the story of a girl who falls in love with a statue, for the simple fact that it will never be able to return her love. This is reflected in the video that is being released along with this single, where in the first part we see Chloé in a garden with the starring statue, and then it jumps to a nighttime ambiance the better represents the darkest desires.
