Nous Les Amoureux

About Nous Les Amoureux

"Nous les amoureux" ("We, the Lovers" or "Us Lovers") was the winning song of the Eurovision Song Contest 1961, performed in French for Luxembourg by French singer Jean-Claude Pascal. The song was performed fourteenth on the night (following Denmark's Dario Campeotto with "Angelique" and preceding the United Kingdom's The Allisons with "Are You Sure?"). By the close of voting, it had received 31 points, placing it first in a field of 16 and thus helping Luxembourg to achieve the rare feat of moving from last to first in successive years. Due to the contest overrunning in time, the reprise of this song was not shown in the UK. The UK's coverage ended shortly after the voting had finished and the winning song was declared. The song was succeeded as Contest winner in 1962 by Isabelle Aubret singing "Un premier amour" for France. It was succeeded as Luxembourgish representative at the 1962 Contest by Camillo Felgen with "Petit bonhomme". The song was also featured on Season 2, Episode 6 of A Very Secret Service more »

Nous, les amoureux  

1. Nous les a-mou-reux
On vou-drait nous sé-pa-rer
On vou-drait nous em-pê-cher d'être heu-reux
Nous les a-mou-reux
Il pa-raît que c'est l'en-fer
Qui nous guette ou bien le fer
Et le feu
C'est vrai, les im-bé-ciles et les mé-chants
Nous font du mal nous jouent des tours
Pour-tant rien n'est plus é-vi-dent
Que l'a-mour
Nous les a-mou-reux
Nous ne pou-vons rien contre eux
Ils sont mille et l'on est deux
Les a-mou-reux
Mais l'heu-re va son-ner
Des nuits moins dif-fi-ciles
Et je pour-rai l'ai-mer
Sans qu'on en parl' en ville
C'est pro-mis
C'est é-crit

2. Nous les a-mou-reux
Le so-leil bril-le pour nous
Et l'on dort sur les ge-noux du Bon Dieu
Nous les a-mou-reux
Il nous a don-né le droit
Au bon-heur et à la joie
D'ê-tre deux
A-lors les sans a-mour, les mal-ai-més,
Il fau-dra bien nous ac-quit-ter
Vous qui n'a-vez ja-mais é-té
Con-dam-nés
Nous les a-mou-reux
Nous al-lons vi-vre sans vous
Car le ciel est a-vec
Nous les a-mou-reux
