Gauvain Sers opens a vibrant scrapbook of memories in "Comme Si C’était Hier", inviting us on a ride from childhood mischief to adult awakenings. Each verse feels like a quick-cut scene in a movie: first love confessions, school math headaches, raucous street protests, and the bittersweet taste of a première bière. Personal moments mingle with collective history—tears for New York’s twin towers, factory closures that spark anger—creating a timeline where the small and the seismic share the same page.
What ties it all together is the singer’s stubborn refusal to let any of it fade. The repeated line "Je me souviens comme si c’était hier" is both a smile and a fist in the air, promising that even Alzheimer itself cannot steal these snapshots. By the end, the song becomes a pledge to pass every precious detail on to the next generation, proving that memories are more than nostalgia—they are fuel for identity, empathy, and resistance.
