Ceci n'est pas un cliché
3:46
CECI N’EST PAS UN CLICHÉ is an accumulation of all the cliché lyrics Charlotte & Bolis have heard over the years (+ of course a wink to one of the most copied sentences in art): “It came about when we were touring and heard a song on the radio opening with ‘I was walking down the street’ which made us strongly cringe. But the thing is, cringing is a shared passion of Bolis & I. So we passionately made a song out of it. Even more passionately we performed ourselves into a video about all the clichés we see in the magic world of musical genres. The musicians in all their glory, capturing momentum and delivering a top notch performance, gazing into the light that’s called inspiration. And so for once and for all, please leave Magritte alone…!’ “
