In “En Nuit,” French indie-pop duo VIDEOCLUB turns the mysteries of the night into a playground for two restless souls. The song paints glittering snapshots of moonlit streets, sudden storms, and spontaneous dances in the rain, all while a tender voice urges a doubtful friend to lift their gaze and step out of nostalgia’s shadow. Rather than letting boredom and melancholy swallow them, the pair chooses motion — running through the city, leaping over puddles, shouting dreams into the dark. Each whispered On est plus forts que l’ennui (We are stronger than boredom) feels like a secret pact of youthful rebellion, where love and friendship become shields against loneliness.
At its heart, “En Nuit” celebrates the healing power of companionship. One narrator “writes the passing time,” the other “lives everything we said,” and together they erase doubts, replacing them with shared adventures. The night might bring solitude, but VIDEOCLUB shows how it can also spark paradox and plenitude — the bittersweet thrill of growing up, chasing the future, and learning that two courageous hearts can outshine even the darkest city streets.
