Mylene Farmer

 

Mylene Farmer was my favorite 80's french singer...and still is.

Her music videos were small gems, movie quality stuff. Of course it was difficult to see them on the north american TV since most of them were censored here at the time.  But that was then..now you can see most of her work on You Tube.

Mylene's fan? show where you come from! 

Take a minute to add yourself to this map!
I added this map on may 15th 2008, lets see how many fan we can get from now until her show in september 2009!!

New Mylene Farmer album in 2008

"Onirique" will be the name of her new album.
Release date is somewhere around october 2008.
Her lastest realease was "Avant que l'ombre" in 2005.

Mylene Farmer movie 

In 1993-94 she worked with her partner Laurent Boutonnat on a movie called "Giorgino". She co-starred with Jeff Dahlgren, Joss Ackland, Louise Fletcher and Frances Barber. Filming in the harsh winter of the Czech Republic proved difficult.

The big budget movie (20 000 000$)
was a big flop when it came out. It was taken off the screen after less than 3 weeks.

Fans had to wait more than 10 years to see the DVD release, thanks to a very big and vocal fan base. Boutonnat agreed to the release to please Mylene fans.

Mylene Farmer 2009 Tour 

Fans are furious!



Well... as expected everything is sold out.
The 160 000 tickets for the 2 first Parisian date (Paris, Stade de France, september 11-12th 2009) sold out in less than 3 hours.

Fans are mad because nothing was done to prevent scalpers from buying places to resell. Plus, as expected the online and phone reservation systems were saturated the second they went live, preventing most fan to have even a shot at tickets.

A petition is going on to denunciate the resale of the tickets. Some of these tickets are selling for close to 200 euros a piece (over 300$)...for a show that will take place in a year and a half!!

The 2 Geneva, Switzerland dates (september 4th and 5th) are also sold out!

I have nothing against the resell of tickets, because most of the time it can be taken care of at the source (limitation of the number of tickets you can buy, efficient reservation system that allow a majority of people to get a shot at tickets). In this case the FNAC (the official ticket seller for the show) just performed very poorly. EVERYONE knew hell was going to break loose the second the tickets were going on sale. They should have expected this and allow enough ressources to deal with this.

I mean come on.... Mylene Farmer + Stade de France: the FNAC should have known! She is after all the only and first french female singer to perform in this stadium. And one of the very few artist who could filled it up so fast.

TV ad for her 2009 tour

LIBERTINE and POURVU QU'ELLES SOIENT DOUCES 

Uncensored

Talking about censorship, these 2 videos were hit hard here in North America. Puritanism live strong, and apparently in some people's mind, guns, shooting sprees and violence are ok, but a few pieces of naked skin is not. People stupidity has no end.

Youtube has also cencored these videos (we are in 2007 are we??) while they keep running extremly violent and disturbing videos. But hey this is america.

Anyway for those who like good videoclips here are the links to LIBERTINE and POURVU QU'ELLE SOIT DOUCES

In the 80's, when both vids came out, I was able to make some VHS copy of the uncensored version and made a few buck at school selling them! That was a SUCH a long time ago, before the internet of course!!

These videos are movie-like, they tell a story. You want to see Libertine before Pourvu qu'elles soient douces.

Pourvu qu'elles soient douces= But so long as they are sweet (or soft).

I have them both in complete uncensored version (not that there is anything to cut anyway. I don't understand the big fuss around these anyway):

LIBERTINE

POURVU QU'ELLES SOIENT DOUCES

L'Horloge 

L'Horloge (The clock ) from the poetry book "Flowers of evil" by french gothic poet Charles Baudelaire.

Translation is from 1936 by Edna St. Vincent Millay.

The Clock

Terrible Clock! God without mercy; mighty Power!
Saying all day, "Remember! Remember and beware:
There is no arrow of pain but in a tiny hour
Will make thy heart its target, and stick and vibrate there.

"Toward the horizon all too soon and out of sight
Vaporous Pleasure, like a sylphide, floats away;
Each instant swallows up one crumb of that delight
Accorded to each man for all his mortal day."

The Second says, three thousand six hundred times an hour,
"Remember! Look, the wingèd insect Now doth sit
Upon thy vein, and shrilleth, 'I am Nevermore,
And I have sucked thy blood; I am flying away with it!'

"Remember! Souviens-toi! Esto memor! - no tongue
My metal larynx does not speak - O frivolous man,
These minutes, rich in gold, slide past; thou art not young;
Remember! and wash well the gravel in the pan!

"Remember! Time, the player that need not cheat to win,
Makes a strong adversary. Is thy game begun?
Thy game is lost! Day wanes; night waxes. Look within
The gulf, - it still is thirsty. The sands are all but run.

"Soon, soon, the hour will strike, when Hazard, he that showed
A god-like face, when Virtue - thy bride, but still intact -
When even Repentance (oh, last inn along the road!)
Will say to thee, 'Die, coward. It is too late to act.'"

Mylene Farmer Cest une belle journee 

Not her usual style of video, pretty cute. The song says: it's a beautiful day, I will go to bed.....it was apparently going to be: it's a beautiful day, I will kill myself. But she censored it (or had no choice to do so).
