2019

Pomme's song '2019' is a poignant exploration of the struggle for personal freedom and the right to love without fear. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a society where strict laws and societal norms suppress individual expression and love. The opening lines, 'Bienvenue par ici / Où les lois sont reines,' set the stage for a world where conformity is enforced, and deviation is punished. The singer's desire to hold onto their love, despite the oppressive environment, highlights the universal human need for connection and authenticity.

The recurring theme of fleeing to find freedom is central to the song. Pomme sings, 'Je veux la liberté d'aimer et d'être qui je suis / Je cours, je pars réinventer ma vie loin d'ici,' expressing a deep yearning to escape the constraints of their current life and reinvent themselves in a place where they can love freely and be true to their identity. This desire to break free from societal expectations and find a place of acceptance and love is a powerful message that resonates with many listeners, especially those who feel marginalized or oppressed.

The song also touches on the fear and danger associated with being true to oneself in a hostile environment. Lines like 'J’ai peur quand on s’embrasse / Qu’ils nous brisent le cou' and 'La haine est incendiere' convey the real and present danger of hatred and violence. Despite this, the singer finds strength in unity and resilience, as seen in the lines, 'Même si je tremble, je n'ai pas peur / Si on se rassemble, je n'ai plus peur.' This message of solidarity and courage in the face of adversity is both inspiring and empowering, encouraging listeners to stand together and fight for their right to love and be themselves.
