So this guy is convinced he has created his ideal muse, until he realises she is the one who invented him. Orpheus, Pygmalion, Galatea and glitches… I get my mythological references all mixed up; if you don't get any of it, don't worry: neither do I. Carried by Caribbean sounds, an existential question I ask the universe (and, incidentally, my computer, which seems to have an opinion on the matter): who is really holding the controller?

The song has its own [English version](https://van-helden.net/en/songs/eurydice), shown verse by verse next to the French.
