Welcome to shimmering Alexandria, where the sails on the Nile catch the moonlight and love whirls like a late-night dance. In this cover by French pop star M. Pokora, the singer throws himself into a head-spinning romance with the mysterious Alexandra. He is feverish with desire, boasting that he’s hungrier than a barracuda and willing to drink the whole Nile if she does not hold him back. The exotic setting, the echo of sirens in the harbor, and the lighthouse that wrecks the “butterflies” of his youth all paint a picture of irresistible attraction that feels as vast and deep as the river itself.
Beneath the festive disco groove lies a tug-of-war between burning passion and looming danger. Alexandria becomes a poetic playground where everything starts and everything ends: pleasure flares under rumpled sheets, yet the same alluring lights can shipwreck dreams. Pokora’s energetic delivery turns this classic French hit into an invitation to let go, dance until dawn, and taste love’s sweet risk—because in Alexandria, the night is young, the water is endless, and desire always has the last word.
