  1. 1. What do you think of Mika's new single 'Elle Me Dit'?



Recommended Posts

I live in Montreal, Quebec, Canada but I'm visiting my hometown which is Quebec City. I live in the french-speaking part of Canada:wink2:

 

That makes sense :naughty:

It's a shame that the UK hasn't taken any notice though :boxed:

Even though we (well, most of us:teehee:) agree that EMD is a summer hit, I`m sure Russian broadcasting will continue all year long !

 

Yesterday I heard it on "Love Radio", Moscow... A DJ announced it as "...a new single by perfect dear Mika...." :thumb_yello:

Well, in my country French is not popular at all. It would be a success if he wrote a song in Spanish, hahaha :naughty:...he could do that. Pfff, lazy Mika :sneaky2: hahahaha.

 

But as long as he releases a song in english, it will be for sure on the radio. Rain did it in a very short time after the release in the UK

 

(again, the song, not the weather :P)

Agreed. Mika should do a song in EVERY language. Then we'd all be happy. :naughty:

 

I certainly hope so, yet I wonder if his next English single will be as popular as EMD has been? Fingers crossed:excite:

I don't know if this is the right place for it, but here's my bash at the lyrics for the ENGLISH version. . . (not translation of the original)

 

Elle Me Dit- English Lyrics

 

Elle me dit danse

She tells me, “Could you write a happy song?

Get your ass to number one,

You could try a little harder.”

She tells me, “You could be a billionaire.

Get yourself out of my hair.

Don’t just end up like your father

She tells me, “ … chance …

Get a girlfriend, learn to dance

Be a boy like any other”

She tells me, “Now you’ve got some things to say

I’ve been searching?… night and day

Gonna end up like your brother.”

She tells me, she tells me it’s my life ….and if I lived it … twice?

I don’t know what to say

Don’t ….

She says get out her hair but says she doesn’t care

…she doesn’t make no sense

You will not make new friends

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?

Danse danse danse

Elle me dit

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?

Danse danse danse

Elle me dit, “ Live your life in a balloon.

Lock yourself up in your room,

So the world can never reach you.”

She tells me, “What’re you smoking?

What’s that stench?

Who’re you speaking to in French?

Did you really think you had it?”

She tells me, “Lighten up? to … soul???

Does she think I’m Emile Zola????

I’d give up, it’s not worth trying!”

She tells me; one day I will make a …

that’s the only thing she said that’d ever get me smiling

She tells me, she tells me it’s my life ….and if I lived it … twice?

I don’t know what to say

….

She says get out her hair but says she doesn’t care

…she doesn’t make no sense

She may not make new friends

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?

Danse danse danse

Elle me dit

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?

Danse danse danse

Elle me dit, “Live your life in a balloon.

Lock yourself up in your room,

So the world can never reach you

She tells me, “Am I speaking Japanese?”

Then she’s falling on her knees,

Started praying to St Peter.

She tells me, “See the price I have to pay?

Let me? live my life away

All the **** I have to get through.”

She tells me, “Why d’you… me ?

‘S not the way it’s meant to be

I don’t want to have to hate you

Elle me dit danse

Elle me dit danse, danse, danse,

Elle me dit danse

Elle me dit danse, danse, danse,

Elle me dit danse

Elle me dit danse, danse, danse,

Elle me dit danse, danse, danse, danse, danse danse, danse

Elle me danse

Elle me dit danse, danse, danse,

Elle me dit danse

Elle me dit danse, danse, danse,

Elle me dit danse

Elle me dit danse, danse, danse,

Elle me dit danse, danse, danse, danse, danse, danse danse,

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?

Danse danse danse

Elle me dit

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?

Danse danse danse

Elle me dit danse.

Just came from another Elle me dit thread - Mellody posted a picture of Mika´s lyrics that were on the floor while he was singing it. I edited it in photoshop so I made them readable a little - here you go, we can maybe figure out missing parts.:thumb_yello:thank you mellody!

tomorrow is the big day! the video for "Elle me dit" :boing:

 

:yay::teehee:

 

they played it again, twice on sunday and again one time today :teehee:

 

and we can vote for MNM50 and there you have 50 songs and then 29 or so in "bubbling under" and it's already on 2nd place in the bubbling under, so if loads of people vote, it might get into the 50 songs that get played on the radio on saturday :teehee:
