Bravo, je ne connais pas yukali, magnifique toute la pholosophie de Baudelaire en la. Il est un oasis de trouver des crations artistiques cultures dans les poubels d internet. Bravo à vous

Thanks, "Warner Music", for the post.

finally, someone (Fatma) sings this the best of all best, great voice, perfect French, perfect feeling

Dearest Fatma, thank you for creating this beautiful masterpiece. I have been listening to this piece for tens of times in the last 4 days. Tango, glimpse of jazz, an aria, a lullaby… it is pure love and joy❤

J'adore la regarder chanter, elle est merveilleuse et qu'elle sensibilité ❤

The first time I ever hear Youkaili being sung was in Spanish in an Argentinean film called El Lado Oscuro del Corazón (The Dark Side of The Heart) directed by Eliseo Subiela, during a scene in a subterranean brothel where they had a stage on which they only present saucy cabaret numbers.... ever since I've been enamored by this piece.

I wished Kurt Weil could hear the singer majestic voice interpreting his hymn to liberty

[ИрмаВирц]

Очень умный голос, прекрасное исполнение, чувственное и нежное😍

[luisnunes]

Que belle chanson et qui passion dans la voix de Fatma!
Beaucoup trop court, Warner...

Love, this, beautiful voice!!

Youkali, c'est le pay_s de nos désirs
Youkali, c'est le bonheur, c'est le plaisir
Youkali, c'est la terre où l'on quit_te tous les soucis
C'est dans notre nuit
Comme une éclaircie
L'étoi_le qu'on suit,
C'est Youkali

Youkali,
c'est le respect de tous les voeux échangés
Youkali, c'est le pay_s des beaux amours partagés
C'est l'espérance
Qui est au coeur de tous les humains
La délivrance
Que nous attendons tous pour demain

Youkali, c'est le pay_s de nos désirs
Youkali, c'est le bonheur, c'est le plaisir
Mais c'est un rêve, une folie
(Il n'y a pas de Youkali)

Too bad this is only a magnificent excerpt and the beauty of her singing gets deconstructed in the complete piece.
