The much talked-about music video for Berlin was recently unveiled! Below is a version that I've given English subtitles - please note that this is a literal translation of the French lyrics written by Skye. An English version of "Berlin" has been recorded, with different lyrics. Feel free to post any suggestions to improve my translation. :)
The French lyrics can be found here.

Wow, I just found this blog, I am a huge fan of Christophe and it's nice to find something about him in English, although I do speak French. What about the English version of Berlin? Will it be released? Does he have plans to start an international career? Hope so :) Thanks!
Hey Tom! The English version is called "Lost in Berlin", and it looks like they shot an English version of the music video. (there was a clip recently where Christophe was teaching the extras in the church the lyrics). No news on whether it'll be released though.
As far as an international career, he's said that if the album is a hit, they'll re-release it in England. They've recorded English versions of 5 or 6 songs, and the rest would be French tracks. He also mentioned that they might look at releasing English material in Germany and/or Sweden. Here's hoping!!
That's really cool news, thanks!
What I would do for him to travel to Canada!! That'd be the day. So what does this song mean exactly? What's with the church?
Hey Sylvia! That makes two of us who would just die to see Christophe in Canada! One day, I hope.... :D
Christophe has said that the song is about liberation. He wanted to set the video in a church because it seemed ironic, to have a guy make a personal confession in a very public place.... I'll try to find a video and subtitle it haha, I think he explains it better than that!
