Synopsis

Liane Foly appears in a highly stylized, retro jazz setting that evokes the look of a 1960s album cover and fashion magazine shoot. She poses and performs against graphic backdrops, with shifting colors, studio lighting, and playful visual compositions framing her as both singer and photographic subject. The presentation favors atmosphere over narrative, matching the song's reassuring message about letting sorrow pass. The result is an elegant, deliberately theatrical clip built around glamour, vintage design, and Foly's poised performance.

Factoids & Trivia

  • "Laisse pleurer les nuages" was released in 1993 on Foly's album "Les petites notes," the record that established her as a major French pop and jazz-oriented singer.
  • The song was written by Liane Foly and Philippe Viennet, with music by Andre Manoukian and arrangements by Allioum Ba.
  • Manoukian also served as producer of the recording, while Foly received a producer credit as well.
  • The clip's visual language plays with the codes of vintage jazz packaging: posed portraits, bold typography, studio backdrops, and deliberately polished fashion imagery.
  • The song was later adapted into English as "Sweet Mystery" for the international version of the album. The English-language project was also titled "Sweet Mystery."
  • The track runs for just over four minutes on the album version.
