MANET (Edouard), dejeuner dans le studio

JOEL (Billie), the way you are
date de publication: mercredi 05 avril 2023

Quand on ose être soi-même, on se porte beaucoup mieux

Bernard SIEGEL


Edouard MANET - dejeuner dans le studio
La toile a été réalisée à l’appartement familial de Boulogne-sur-Mer, où les Manet passaient l’été. Le tableau résume parfaitement l’oeuvre de Manet en ce qu’elle a parfois de bizarre ou d’absurde grâce à un rassemblement d’éléments totalement hétéroclites : trois personnages indifférents les uns aux autres, un repas mêlant huîtres et café, des armes et des accessoires de combat, sans oublier bien sûr la présence de l’incontournable chat noir, qui, depuis Olympia, symbolise Manet aux yeux des critiques.
Neue Pinakothek de Munich.

Illustration musicale: Billie JOEL - just the way you are
Musicien de talent, il a gagné pas moins de six Grammy Award durant sa carrière, mise entre parenthèses depuis 1993. Just the Way You Are est une chanson écrite pour sa femme Elizabeth

Don't go changing to try and please me
You never let me down before, mmm
Don't imagine you're too familiar
And I don't see you anymore

I would not leave you in times of trouble
We never could have come this far, mmm
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times
I'll take you just the way you are

Don't go trying some new fashion
Don't change the color of your hair, mmm
You always have my unspoken passion
Although I might not seem to care

I don't want clever conversation
I never want to work that hard, mmm
I just want someone that I can talk to
I want you just the way you are

I need to know that you will always be
The same old someone that I knew
Oh, but what will it take till you believe in me
The way that I believe in you?

I said I love you, that's forever
And this I promise from the heart, mmm
I couldn't love you any better
I love you just the way you are, right

I don't want clever conversation
I never want to work that hard, mmm
I just want someone that I can talk to
I want you just the way you are
