    Only You - French Promo Version

    There is a very rare version of Only You, Beth singing in French.

    It haven't been officially released. It was only released on the French promo cd: 

    "Only You" (Go! Beat 3815-LC 7192)

    I searched a long time for it and finaly got a cd copy from the promo.

     

    Because it's so rare (and not commercially released so far), I uploaded it for you.

    I converted the cda file to lossless wav - than the wav to lossless flac (cd quality!).

    Note: I uploaded it in flac format in order to save best sound quality. Needles asking - I will NOT upload it in mp3 !!!

    If you want to listen to it or to burn it, you need a "flac to wav" converter.

    Here you can download a free and simple converter: http://www.brothersoft.com/flac-download-72501.html

     

    Download (10.1mb):

    PLEASE don't convert the download in any shitty audio format (mp3...).

    Enjoy it.

     

    Lyrics:

    Nous souffrons tout les jours
    A quoi ca sert
    Ces crimes d'illusions
    Nous trompent tous
    Maintenant je suis las
    C'est tout ce que je ressens

    It's only you
    Who can tell me apart
    And it's only you
    Who can turn my wooden heart

    L'ampleur de notre guerre
    Ce n'est qu'un rêve
    On a tout ecrasé
    Ca je peux le voir egoistement
    Nous avons echoué
    C'est tout ce que je ressens

    It's only you
    Who can tell me apart
    And it's only you
    Who can turn my wooden heart

    On a choisi de prendre tout ce qu'on pouvait
    Ce teint d'automne a une fin amer
    Des années de frustration s'allongent côte à côte

    It's only you
    Who can tell me apart
    And it's only you
    Who can turn my wooden heart

    It's only you
    Who can tell me apart
    And it's only you
    Who can turn my wooden heart

    10.1mb? You sure you converted that right? A FLAC file should generally be 30-40mb. Thanks for uploading though, i've had this in MP3 for a while so it's nice to have a higher quality one.

    Yeah, this is a low quality FLAC (as FLACs go), it's just slightly higher than a 320kb MP3 (FLACs are variable, this peaks at about 440kb, falls to as low as 250kb, average of about 350kb) Try encoding it at a higher FLAC level (i use FLAC Level 5) and it'll give you close to CD quality

    I decoded the original WAV correctly to FLAC with "level 6".

    The file size results from the original WAV file size: 38,2 mb - length: 3:47 min (same as "Only You edit").

    So don't complain, but anyway: here is the original WAV to download.

    Re: Only You - French Promo Version

    Oh i wasn't complaining! Just saying if you encode to FLAC, you should end up with something almost the size of the original WAV (how else can it be CD quality?), so was wondering why it was so small a FLAC. And thank you for uploading the original WAV!

    Oh my goodness! Thank you SO much for this! The quality is wonderful and the song is of course beautiful. I just discovered that a french version existed today as I was listening to the paris 1998 performance and suddenly Beth started singing in French. I was absolutely blown away when I first heard it!
