In the very idea of the existence of Soleil Secret there is something delightfully paradoxical. As if the brightest light is the one we keep for ourselves. Anne-Marie and Simon remind us of this simple truth: love is a workshop. Their music is living proof that creation and love are two gestures of the same hand. The song ‘Art de vivre’ as the art of living, what a wonderful permission to become light! In the end, to philosophize may mean just that: to take seriously the ways in which we feel weightlessness, the ways we manage to charm what could otherwise be mere routine.

The song ‘Art de vivre’ as the art of life, what a beautiful permission to be light! After all, to philosophize may mean exactly this: to take seriously our ways of feeling weightlessness, our methods of enchanting what could have been merely routine. Soleil Secret reminds us that our favorite lies are often the ones that keep us alive – the illusion that there is still time, that magic can last forever.
