Well, it's about the outcome of an old man's live. It ends on a sunny felling, I guess you're right.
I'm really glad you checked some of my Type Songs, don't hesitate to comment on others and tell me how you feel about the songs. You're such a motivation, thanks a hundred times.

And for "construccommenting" :
On the high, except the frame all can be push upper.
On the wide you've make a geometrical center but maybe you've could center optically. Indeed you've used an italic handwriting and it makes feel there is too much space on the right. Maybe police size for "things the grand...know" is a slighly too small, maybe one point upper.
The purple could have a bit more of red and black.
Otherwise, your typographic choice are really good and this simple drawing illustrate but don't pollute the message.

Thanks for your comment. You can write it en french la prochaine fois.
La construction de l'image pourrait être différente mais ce travail suit les règles que je me suis fixé pour cette série : format, cadre, taille de la notice, restriction des couleurs, largeur du texte. Suivant les sujets je m'autorise certaines libertés; dans ce cas précis j'ai estimé que ce n'était pas nécessaire.
L'espace autour de l'ensemble est un souci d'esthétique et de sobriété, et dans ce cas précis il étaye le sujet de la chanson : le troisième âge, la peur des autres, l'isolement mais aussi la sérénité (d'où les tons pastels pour adoucir ce triste constat).
Quant à la taille de la notice, c'est effectivement pas simple à lire, cela dit les images sont ici réduites et idéalement destinées à l'impression sous forme d'affiches (peut-être un jour), où la question ne se posera plus.
En tout cas, je suis ravi d'avoir une critique constructive sur ce projet qui me tient à cœur. Merci beaucoup.

Many thanks. Maybe "I do some stupid things" will be enough for a commercial success.
