[:en]We’re sure you know about Emilie Simon’s appearances in Beijing and Shanghai as part of JUE2015. However, you may not have noticed that she also had a show in Wuhan. Well, it was a special show because despite a series of unfortunate events, Emilie and her touring troupe ended up creating an entirely new performance in a last minute effort to make the best of their situation. Find out what happened and listen to unique renditions of the songs here: http://www.emiliesimon.com/
Here’s the Live audio
Emilie Simon:
Thank you very much everyone. We are very happy to be here, with you tonight. And before we really start the show, I have to explain to you something that you are part of something that never never happened before, in my life.
We are playing a set for you tonight that we never play before. For a technical reason, for a very technical reason, not political reason at all, is that basically there is one person missing in the band that had all the gears with him. So we are building a set for you tonight that we rehearse for you, because we didn’t want to cancel the show. So this is a very unique show you have tonight.
(Song: To the dancers in the rain)
We were yesterday in Beijing for a few days, we arrived in Beijing and stayed there. And I went to this music shop, and I was like so excited to discover Chinese instruments, traditional Chinese instruments, and I got this little guy here.
(playing the instrument) I learn it this morning, so I’m sorry, this afternoon, it’s a Hulusi, right?
(Song: Tears)
(Song: Opium)
(Song: Desert)
This is a song that I wrote for a city that I really like, that I love, where I live. The city is paris.
(Song: Paris I took boonies)
(Song: Flower Season)
So happy to be here tonight with you. Thank you so much, Wuhan, for coming!

Emilie Simon,
谢谢！
非常感谢大家。很高兴今晚能来到VOX。在演出开始之前，我要告诉大家一件在我身上从未发生过的事。而你们，是见证者。今晚我们将为你们带来一场特别的、从未有过的演出。由于一些技术性问题（与政治无关T.T），我们的一名成员今天无法来到现场，而他带着我们所有的乐器。可是我们不想就这样取消演出，所以我们决定为你们奉上这场特别的演出。
(Song: To thedancers in the rain)
昨天我们还在北京。我们在北京呆了几天。在那我去了一家乐器店。我特别想去发现一些中国传统乐器，于是我找到了这个小家伙。（弹奏一声）今天早上刚刚学怎么用它。哦，不对，是今天下午。这个乐器是葫芦丝吧？
(Song: Tears)
(Song: Opium)
(Song: Desert)
谢谢。这首歌是写给一座我热爱的，也是我生活的城市。它就是巴黎。
