Make The Girl Dance

http://i43.tinypic.com/aublt5.jpg
French electro-rock duo that makes music in both neon & pastel, this is the kind of band I'd expect Kitsuné to scheme stealing from their current label. Sofia Coppola would love them (random I know).

If anyone speaks french is reading this, could you translate the lyrics from the video to English? I'm pretty sure Baby Baby Baby's lyrics has something to do with Tellier, Justice & Yelle!?

Make The Girl Dance - Baby Baby Baby (Radio Edit)
Make The Girl Dance - My Name's Breezy
Make The Girl Dance - South

You can buy Baby Baby Baby digitally in 320kbps mp3 or wav formats with remixes from We Are Terrorists, No Kiss With Gloss, The Shoppings and Make The Girl Dance themselves - Here! The single sleeve is fugly..

Make The Girl Dance is officially filed under Ohh! Crapp's... bands to watch in 09.

Most of the lyrics are innuendos or inside comments on french music/tv. With the only exception being kate moss and her boyfriend.

I think all sentences start with 'je veux" meaning I want, and then she makes a huge list of whatever she wants.

Je veux tellier sur mon ipod = I want tellier on my ipod

Je veux sortir avec tes potes, je mettrais ma plus belle cullote = I want to go out with your friends, i'll put my prettiest underwear

Je veux etre dans le top de justice, la main de gaspard sur ma cuisse = Want to be in justice's top playlist, have gaspard's hand on my thigh (hehe)

Je veux ta tete sur un plateau, je veux la mienne chez denisot= Want your hand on a plate, want mine at denisot (He presents a famous TV show with a section on emerging artists, its called Le grand journal de canal plus)

Je veux danser comme vanessa, je veux voir son mec a ibiza= want to dance like vanessa (paradis ?) want to meet her boyfriend in ibiza

Those are the coolest ones, the others are too sexual to be translated :p hehe
Tshuss

I want to have Sebastien Tellier on my Ipod ; I want your Mom’s credit card ; I want your dad’s car ; I want to go out with your friends ; I will wear my cutest panties ; I want a hot sex session ; You can look but you can’t touch.

I want to be in Justice top friend ; Gaspard’s hand on my thigh ; I want to be able to count without my fingers ; And I want yours in the right spot ; I don’t want to take the stairs ; Carry me in your arms then ; I want to be the only person on pictures ; And I want to model for Yves Saint Laurent ; I want geniuses as children ; And I want my dog to graduate ; I want your head on a tray ; I want mine on TV.

I dont want a piece of cake, I just want blow ; I dont want Kate, I want Ethan Hawke ; I want to jump off of big ladder ; do as you can for the rainbow ; i want chocolate and vanilla flavoured ice cream ; i want your balls to be blueberry flavoured ; I want to dance like Vanessa Paradis ; I want to see her boyfriend at Ibiza (ie Johnny Depp) ; I want to be asleep when you wake up ; and I want Yelle’s tshirt ; I want to fit in all my jeans ; and I want you to make me presents with your pay check ; I want ice cubes in my glass ; I want to make your grandma smoke weed ; I saw your stupid ex blah blah blah

not exactly the most interesting lyrics, and i just got this translation from another website. enjoy :)

Machining said...

I'm french so i understand what the girls says and i'm agree with you : the lyrics are not very interesting..btw the DJ was a TV animator. thnks for the post

Brad said...

This is fantastic!

J. said...

The funny thing is that I pass by that street like 4 times a day.
Ok, that's just funny for me.
I just wanted to show off my "frenchiness"

Bastille said...

Eh, this isn't nearly as exciting as The XX, who are awesome.

Bastille said...

I actually enjoyed South the most

Faisal Jehan said...

^ yeah I Actually prefer the South & My Name's Breeze over Baby Baby, hope they release more of that style.

the lyrics are crap, the singer's average & the music's flat.

they got tons of viewing on YouTube & Dailymotion - & blogs coverage - because one of the guys' a TV host & there's naked girls in the video. problem: they ripped off MATT & KIM's "Lessons Learned" video, forgetting everything that made it cool to focus on showing some ass.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=bJkymylTNU4

the thing is : if teen bloggers love it, they got no coverage from cool/serious music webzines & magazines websites.

they were boring live and we now got proof it'll be the same with their records - and Kitsuné have MUCH better taste than that.

Faisal Jehan said...

^^ don't judge them by one song, check out the other stuff they don't sound like Baby Baby Baby at all.

i love france <-!

a chier!

Fumon said...

Cette musique est vraiment à chier : instru en mousse, paroles merdiques, voix stéréotypée...

J. said...

Je pense qu'il ne faut pas prendre la chanson sérieusement, le ton est à la légèreté et l'auto-dérision, il ne faut pas voir ici le nouveau chef d'œuvre révolutionnant l'univers musical.

We don't have to take that song seriously, the tone is lighthearted and full of self-derision, the goal of that song is not to pretend to be a master piece.

Arrêtez donc un peu de râler, merde! :P

This vid is like one of those dreams where you're walking around naked with everyone looking, but in this one they are happy about it.

Faire une souflette a ta grand-mere...lol.

jeez, how many cafes did they walk by

This cool, not amazing. If you speak french, go see the shoppings, funnier & better music ;)

WE ARE FRENCH said...

the song is very shitty. The lyrics are totally stupid and it's a copycat of some songs of the shoppings and the ironic tone of je veux te voir (yelle).
In the same type of lyrics/music i'd prefer jolie chérie or Simone elle est bonne....

Anonymous said...

Definitely makes french people throw up..... horrible

grandromana said...

I love France,but lyrics are stupid and smells greenhorn smell!!!may be these moods are spirit of this period,therefore its shitty too!!!

Bastille said...

I mean its obviously very Yelle sounding, but I definitely appreciate it.

Anonymous said...

which website did you use to translate it? hehe

flo said...

Another use of that same Parisian street called 'Montorgueil', this time with more clothes but hot girl nonetheless in Fritz Helder and the Phantoms' Lagerfeld Lady video.

Jonathan said...

Too bad there isn't a uncensored version of this somewhere heheh..

this video is so awesome the song's lyrics are probably some of the greatest ever

dragontitan said...

i don't know about the lyrics... i don't speak french. the video is decently good... something different - certainly for this american audience. does no one else get it at all - it's a slap in the face to americans in a way. no one would dare make a video like this in america for fear of jail and punishment - so, how are we the freest nation? it's amazing that nude breasts and the sight of vagina is more offensive than seeing a person having his brains blown out! i guess this can be expected to happen when a country is so ridiculously ignorant that we elect a leader who is not even a citizen!
