Your car 02:16
Whisper my name. I love control. Into the lake, into it you go. It was all part of the plan: not to mistake a kiss on your palm. It started to rain. You pulled my legs tight around your belly, and we stayed outside. You pulled up your shirt, put my hands on your chest and closed you eyes. It was the last time that I saw you under that light.

La espera 02:23
Te espero sentado en un banco sin prisa y el tiempo parado. Disfruto la espera sabiendo que el paso siguiente es tenerte a ti enfrente. Te he hecho esperar tantas veces más que tú a mí. Y quiero pedirte perdón y que sepas que aprecio lo mucho que has hecho. Esperé y esperé sin saber a qué. Te espero sentado y apenas recuerdo el andar cabizbajo. Espero honrar el pacto que hicimos: ser siempre sincero a tu lado. Te esperé sin saber que ibas a ser tú.

Stockholm 04:42
It's a long long way down your spiral. Why lie when you're gifted with a language? I'd ignore your flaws out of friendship. But how long will you love me, once you're finished? You had a son. His name in soil is pretentious and every time you hesitate, he is bleeding. Even the nest underneath your chin, ammunition. Tell me about the woman you'll become: what will she sound like? Under each eyebrow hangs a sign of seduction. Even after years apart, I can feel it. Even the tears rolling down your cheeks are a weapon. You will no doubt always be the queen of your army.

Gracias por el pelo voy a necesitarlo para hacer una ilustración (que es un dibujo aunque suena mejor) Gracias por el pelo no voy a procesarlo Quiero que quede más bien natural con rubio, moreno, castaño, ¡da igual! Gracias por cortar el pelo. ¿Qué seríamos sin peluqueros? No me lo quiero ni imaginar... pero puedo: Cocinando me prendo fuego, en el baño me atasco en el sumidero, paseando por el parque durante una ventisca, me enredo con las ramas de un abeto que no busca molestar pero es que desde que los moños se impusieron ya no queda más remedio que pasear bajo los despejados cielos. El pelo cae hacia abajo... hasta que cae hacia arriba. ¡Todo el mundo lleva unos tocados horrorosos! Gracias por cortar el pelo.

Wait for the sun to set to visit the house I left. Documented hate in piles, notebooks are turning brown. I never knew your chest held gold until that night... it hummed a tune. Wait for the sun to set. I am the sun that left. Ask me what's on my mind, not so in terms of wealth. Documented hate in piles: I used to run from your boot. I never knew your chest held gold until that night (it hummed a tune).

Suso's song 01:59
I try to understand why I would miss being alone when I'm with you then missing you when you are gone. I know it's hard for you to settle down or feel relaxed while I'm around I spoil the silence you have found. You would be the same if you were me, I can't afford to understand you back. We spend our time apart praising each other. When we're together, we wouldn't bother: I want to touch you all the time! Yes, I know you're there and that you love me Oh, but knowing isn't holding and I need weight to pull me down. Bear with me and I won't let you down. As a child I learned from my mistakes so maybe there is hope for me. Hope for you and me!

about

"Debout” is a word game with the french expression “standing up” and the title of Sef's first album after years of experiments, concerts, soundtracks and tours. Now the time was right, It was finally time to record some songs. "Debout" was published on the same day as his first video "Independencia (hymn)", an unreleased song filmed as a live single-sequence with over forty collaborators. Watch it here: vimeo.com/sefsings/independencia

“Debout” es un juego de palabras con la expresión francesa “en pie” y el título del primer disco de Sef, tras años de experimentos, conciertos, bandas sonoras y giras. Ahora sí, era por fin el momento de grabar unas canciones. Sef publicó "Debout" el mismo día que su primer videoclip "Independencia (hymn)", un tema inédito y grabado en directo como plano-secuencia y más de cuarenta colaboradores.

"Favourite Fawn" was recorded by Jason Whittaker (Antigen Records) at St. Mary the Virgin, a wooden church in Little Bromley, during Dingus Khan's De-consecrated Roadshow (Nathan hummed and whistled).

The beginning of the record was taped by Xisco Rojo at Sauerland Studios. The metronome on "La espera" was recorded by Sef at home. On "Stockholm" (written for the movie with the same title), Óscar G. Hinde recorded the piano at home, Peter Memmer recorded cello and voices at film school ECAM and Lucas recorded drums at the hut.
