“La Vie C’est Quoi ?” is a playful conversation between a curious child and a patient father, built around a chain of charming mini-definitions. Each question — What is music? What is hope? — is answered with a vivid metaphor, turning abstract ideas into colorful snapshots: music becomes “sound wearing perfume,” enthusiasm is “dreams taking action,” and a smile is “wind in the sails.” Through this poetic ping-pong, Aldebert invites us to rediscover everyday feelings with childlike wonder, reminding us that life is stitched together by small, shimmering moments.
The heart of the song arrives when the daughter asks, “So, Dad, what is life?” His reply ties every metaphor back to her: “Life is a bit of all that, but above all, it’s you.” In other words, existence gains meaning through the people we love and the stories we share right now. Packed with warmth, humor, and imaginative word-pictures, the track is both a love letter to childhood curiosity and a gentle nudge for listeners of any age to savor the present. Life, Aldebert suggests, is not a distant destination; it is already beating in our laughter, memories, and the hope of watching one another grow.
