Pourquoi le ciel est bleu (Feat Theodore)

Yeah, why does the sky is blue?
This one was recorded with my little 5 years old Théodore.
Music started way earlier last year, but it was going nowhere. Wanted to use those mellotron strings, had some help generating the chord progression with midi chord generator. Recorded acoustic drums. Then had this idea about a kid asking questions and father is just clueless... (This is most of the time what we are right???)
I am super fortunate that my 5 years old did want to sit with me and record little bits.
Lyrics:
Papa
Pourquoi le ciel est bleu?
Je ne sais pas
Je suis daltonien
Papa
Pourquoi le ciel est bleu?
Je ne sais pas
Je ne sais pas
Papa, est ce que le ciel est bleu parce qu'il y a des nuages?
Il y a du bleu dans le ciel!
Papa
Pourquoi le ciel est bleu?
Je ne sais pas
Je suis daltonien
Papa
Pourquoi le ciel est bleu?
Je ne sais pas
Je ne sais pas
Papa est ce que le ciel est bleu parce qu'il y a des fusées!
Je ne sais pas.
Est-ce que le ciel est bleu parce qu'il y a des espaces
Papa est-ce que le ciel est bleu parce qu'il y a de la lune
parce qu'il y a la lune
Je ne sais pas,
Je ne sais pas...
The star of the show! (With blue sky, this is concept...)
By the way, it seems that sky is blue because of the way Sun light hits the atmosphere (wavelength and stuff...) Rayleigh scattering it is called.
I wish you all a great 2026, hope this Weekly Beat challenge will be lots more fun than pain.
Added challenge to me this year, workout a bit to get "fit" ish... Getting a bit older (we all do), I realize it will always be more difficult the longest I wait to get back to more sports, pumping more blood... let this heart work a bit more!
I'll try to use the same kind of discipline required to sit-record music to sit on the bike and ride. Started a couple months ago and already have decent results, but yeah it is hard!
