Great song. It was originally not intended for Desireless at all. Jean-Michel Rivat wrote "Voyage, Voyage" for Michel Delpech. But at that moment he was in a slump and refused it.

Whoa I did not know this was the original. I discovered La floa Matilda back in the hyperium records days and their cover of this song is also really beautiful

That synth riff is pure euphoria, and the way the chorus soars is just perfect. Love how the lyrics are so simple yet feel like a mantra for escape. This track isn't just catchy, it's genuinely transportive. Timeless French synth-pop at its best!
