Mylène Farmer a dévoilé un single intitulé Stolen car en duo avec Sting ce 28 août 2015. Il s’agit d’une reprise d’un titre méconnu de l’ancien chanteur du groupe Police. La chanson était issue de l’album Sacred Love paru en 2003.

Le titre a été adapté en français par l’interprète de Libertine. La chanteuse a rencontré Sting en avril dernier à Paris et les artistes ont sympathisé en coulisses. Quelques jours plus tard, ils sont entrés en studio afin de retravailler le titre produit par le DJ français The Avener. A noter que Stolen car est le prélude à un album que la chanteuse sortira en novembre prochain.

Les paroles originales de Stolen car

Late at night in summer heat. Expensive car, empty street
There’s a wire in my jacket. This is my trade
It only takes a moment, don’t be afraid
I can hotwire an ignition like some kind of star
I’m just a poor boy in a rich man’s car
So I whisper to the engine, flick on the lights
And we drive into the night

Oh the smell of the leather always excited my imagination
And I picture myself in this different situation
I’m a company director, two kids and a wife
I get the feeling that there’s more to this one’s life
There’s some kind of complication, he tells her he’s alone
Spends the night with his lover, there’s a trace of her cologne
And the words of his mistress, as she whispers them so near
Start ringing in my ear

Please take me dancing tonight I’ve been all on my own
You promised one day we could its, what you said on the phone
I’m just a prisoner of love always hid from the light
Take me dancing, please take me dancing tonight

I imagine his wife, she don’t look nothing like a fool
She picks the kids up form some private school
She remembers what he told her, he was late and worked alone
But there’s more than a suspicion in this lingering cologne
And the kid’s just won’t be quiet and she runs a traffic light
And she drives into the night

Please take me dancing tonight I’ve been all on my own
You promised one day we could it’s what you said on the phone
I’m just a prisoner of love always hid from the light
Take me dancing, please take me dancing tonight

So here am I in a stolen car at a traffic light
They go form red to green and so I just drive into the night

Please take me dancing tonight I’ve been all on my own
You promised one day we could it’s what you said on the phone
I’m just a prisoner of love always hid from the light
Take me dancing, please take me dancing tonight
