Yelle LIVE "Je Veux Te Voir" NYC February 19th 2008

[onthe1drop]

Was the sound really that bad? I love Yelle, but this is unlistenable. All I hear is the hi-hat.

[topcover2000]

@onthe1drop Sound recording is the Achilles Heel of all these $200 video cameras. I saw this tour, and the sound was great.

[kashir87]

So funny to read you guyz :D Is Yelle very famous in US ? (iam french)



[putifusciento]

i love her

[dangolf1890]

If only Americans knew what she was saying....bite entours des poils anybody?

[Jontman07]

Yelle's my favourite band and i only found out they were playing in new york when i got home to england after i had been on holiday in New York.. that very same week, i was so sad :(

[Merlinablack]

La amo la amo la amo D:

[ephrayimlevi]

i was there for this concert xD Was so much fun lol

[madeinquebec]

Elles sont belles les francaises... * soupir *

[CarsonRobinetteMusic]

i love how i know the lyrics to this in french and i live in america but the people trying to sing to the lyrics in this vid r like failing haha

[VlogwithEmma]

i love yelle so much, since 7th grade shes been my idol :)

[Dslater417]

I love Yelle!!

[myspacceer]

she's great live

[CentralPerkHangout]

I freaking love this girl. <3

[SoldMySoulToDrama]

i didn't know yelle had concerts in america!!!!!!

[TheCheGang]

@SoldMySoulToDrama Nor did I.

[chefpunky]

Genre elle à fait des concerts chez les Ricains Elle xD

[jeanyapko]

what's the song in the beginning?

[phoenixhazard]

allez grand marnier!

[beautifulmess72]

she's so freaking skinny. have i been in america too long? when i was in barcelona for FOUR days eating what i usuallyat, i lost 3 pounds. COME ON AMERICA

[TheIluvsp]

she's skinny and talented but not that pretty!

[beautifulmess72]

so are at least 65% of famous people, its weird, means their talent shines through. thanks for ur honesty ;)

[aureliejtm]

I'm imporessioned by the public, who talk good french (WelI don't know if they're understand something from the lyrics^^)

Je suis impressioné par le public, qui parle vraiment bien francais! (Enfin, je ne sais pas si ils comprennent quelque chose au paroles ^^)

From a French! =)

[lasaboteuse]

@aureliejtm @aureliejtm Haha, eh ben j'en sais rien, j'etais pas là du coup je peux pas te dire si ils comprenaient ou pas, mais j'ai envie de te dire qu'il y a quand même des américains qui parlent bien français. C'est vrai que c'est pas super répandu aux EU, pas aussi que l'espagnol par exemple, mais on y fait des études de français quand même, et les francophones américains, y en a pas mal!

[lasaboteuse]

@aureliejtm

Ce qui est sûr, c'est que nous les américains sont plutôt arrogants, qu'on attend à ce que tout le monde parle anglais tout simplement, et je t'assure que ça me saoule aussi bien que vous! D'ailleurs il y un plus grand nombre de français qui parle bien anglais—même couramment—qu'il y ait d'américains qui parlent français. Il faut dire qu'il y a bien sûr des exceptions...

d'une américaine qui est devenue HYPER loquace. :)

[Egglesplork]

@lasaboteuse

Mais oui, il y a des exceptions. Aux Etats-Unis, il y a beaucoup de langues. Quand meme, la pluparte des americains ne veuillent pas etudier les autres. L'anglais? C'est assez, a leur avis.

[Adirondaque]

@Egglesplork Inglorious Basterds a fait chier pas mal de voésins à ce qu'il paraît :p

[lordphoenix82]

Wish I could have been there!

[thunderizers]

I love you YELLE^_^

[JesseMosq]

I love it!

Yelle is great!!

it's an awesome the concert at Boston

[xaviceleste]

Queremos a Yelle en Argentina !!!

[TheCooks94]

When does she come to germany, please?

[justrockgirl]

she already went to germany, i don't remember when but i know she did. I think they're recording a new album now so you can hope they'll tour germany with their new album! :)

[myheadphones2]

je l´adooooore, yelle, viens a phx ou LA

[alonso9116]

I <3 her!

[lebebe44]

i like yelles shirt!

[lawry29]

that guy has a sweet shirt....the one with the banana smiley face...=)

[gossiplovexx]

The next lady gaga(:

i ♥♥♥ yelleee<3

[antisocialement]

The next lady gaga? Yelle has been around much longer that Caca

[amishfriendshipbread]

Haha. Yelle is more dance. And Lady GaGa is more pop.

[Dslater417]

@antisocialement I'd say she's closer to La Roux. P.S. Lady Gaga has been around since 2005 ;)

[stillbornbbyjesus]

@antisocialement youre caca. theyre both amazing. gaga has been doing music for years before she was world renown, dumb shit. gaga is just more unique and fashion oriented, so shes in more industries than just music, and even political. yeah i think GAGA takes the cake. yelle is still amazing though, dont get me wrong.

[therealsanjaypatel]

@stillbornbbyjesus You are an idiot, and painfully wrong. Gaga is NOT unique. She has a team of people who comb the past on her behalf for people to rip off (very much like Madonna but with less tact). I have no idea why people like you can spout off about how "unique" Gaga is when you obviously have no clue regarding music history. Everytime I watch a video I like, including by greats such as Grace Jones, some moron like you appears claiming how "unique" Gaga is. Please crawl under rock.

[werm277]

@stillbornbbyjesus Um if you noticed when she used to make music before the whole gaga thing she called her self by her proper name and did not have any outrages style. She was also on boiling points plain as ever. SHE IS NOT UNIQUE. She takes her designs from Alexander McQueen and people like Bjork. She has an entire team of people telling her wear this and wear that. Get real.

[stillbornbbyjesus]

@werm277 ummmmm are you fucking serious? gaga creates more than half her outfits and sets she doesnt have bitches telling her to wear this or that. and yeah i think its ok to be plain if youre not famous yet. yelle looks plain as ever most the time so dont even. get real yeah ok. yeah she wears high fashion but how she wears it is whats creative about it too. if you dont call that unique then youre a dumb cunt, i dont see anyone else even attempting what gaga does.

[Jerobeel]

@stillbornbbyjesus my little Padawan the are people in Europe(i am american) that are more advanced in "weird" fashion and music. Lady Gaga is just plain weird with contageous pop music and a "im cool in ma own skin" lyrics attitude. But take that from her and Gaga is just a clown is nothing without the makeup.

[stillbornbbyjesus]

@Jerobeel thats the dumbest shit ive heard all day, because gaga wears mostly EUROPEAN high fashion. ummm so her voice and writing and piano playing are nothing, if you take away her makeup? whats yelle then? because we all know gaga SINGS better than yelle, yelle just talks in her songs and holds a comfortable note here and there. gaga can actually sing and create a vision bigger than every other person out there making music.

[Jerobeel]

@stillbornbbyjesus well i dont know about Yelle past and achievements. About Gaga, then she is another musician with talent to be a Genius but a conformist she is not the only one like that in the mainstream music industry. She is going to the money. She could be a great jazz player/dancer or who know what more, maybe she would have less money but could leave a legacy. In the pop industry not everyone is able to do that, only a few like Madonna, and another high profile divas will be in history.

[blizzard4422]

@stillbornbbyjesus lady gaga is retarded and thinks shes smart and making a difference. thats much worse than any normal french girl that makes catchy songs.

[stillbornbbyjesus]

@blizzard4422 well thats true, except shes not retarded and does make a difference, if you cant see how then you dont deserve to speak.

i suppose a normal french girl that makes catchy songs makes a difference, right?

so many prudes in the world i swear. im done.

[blizzard4422]

@stillbornbbyjesus youre lost, you didnt even read what i wrote. and if you did then your even more retarded than i thought

[CongoLime503]

@stillbornbbyjesus wearing a dress composed of meat and sunglasses made of cigarettes is NOT high fashion! gtfo!

[demi120izmine]

holy shit i wana=see her live when does she come to seattle?

[sacredlolita]

so cool...she

is completly cool....

waa...

very good video

,Merci... XDDD

[Mandarin2qt4u]

So stilistic and simple, pure Yelle.

[tookietookie123]

LOL the Americans are trying to sing the lyrics but they can't lol how cute!

[fiercefairy101]

lol well she does sing kind of fast

[the1mills]

it might be called rapping?

[poetphilosopherbunny]

freestyle

[baikinman21]

I was there. It's New York... They were all French with the occasional college French major/minors.

[T4nz4ni4232]

Thats because we are Americans!...not a bunch of asshole, snail-eating, surrenduring, cowardly, French pussies !

[tookietookie123]

That's a stereotype... Not all of us like snails... And just because we didn't want to go to war with you guys doesn't mean we're pussies... You guys are acting immature by changing French fries to Freedom fries... -_- very mature look what happened to your country because the war...

[TheCheGang]

@tookietookie123 Oh, we're real cute.

[LBDannyBoy]

@tookietookie123 Ahhh well atleast they tried :)

[shit311]

@tookietookie123 xD french is rly difficult tho im not from the states

[sillystringgs]

@tookietookie123 hahahahahahahahahahahaha

[Existantia]

@tookietookie123 lmfao I heard it too!!!

[muffinsrockomg]

it is about cuiziner, a french rapper with according to yelle, a small dick. The song was originally called 'cuizi short dick'

[RZU427]

short dick cuizi

[muffinsrockomg]

Je veux te voir dans la film pornographique en action avec ta bite forme potato ou bien frites!

je vous aime yelle :)

[nanteuilly]

oui je crois décidément que Yelle était vraiment le Groupe que j'attendais depuis très longtemps dans le paysage musical français... de la musique techno moderne comme la France sait si bien en produire... sans perdre l'attache historique avec ce que l'on appelle la Chanson Française... bravo ! on peut chanter et danser sur des textes en Français !

[simplymufasa]

Waw en voilà une qui a réussi a faire chanter les amerlocs en français!Bravo Yelle!

[goth45351]

very original. very cool

[ElvirkO123]

she's too cool

[Wolfmoon1918]

I'd love to see her. I bet she got a big charge out of having all those people so happy to see her, and singing along with her like that! I know I'd love it!

[sfrussell999]

well either from that or all the cocaine...

[sarahgateaux]

I WANNA BE LIKE HER WHEN I GROW UP!

[spannypumpkin]

i love her!!!! she is so great!

[lidoolsakura]

[shlobs422]

i wonder who dis was about.

[Daisy0Duck]

The dis was about TTC a frensh rap group who sing sexist purpose(sorry for english)

[SansPretentionAucune]

superbe playback, et encore merci pour la pepi.

[louloutredouce]

J'étais au show du 400 eme de québec et vraiment sa kikais tout les culs du monde !

[antoinedargentine]

I went to see her in Buenos Aires about 6 weeks ago : I am 40 (but I ve partied a lot ! and still partying, yeah !).

When I entered the concert room, I was surrounded by a majority of 18/24 years old people (mostly chicks btw).

Nevertheless, we entered and waited about one hour before she would appear. While waiting they played techno music and I was the one (the older guy, only 40, lol) dancing the most already.

She came and all the room was jumping ! It was a great experience !!! TRY IT !

[ahan421]

I'm so disappointed that I had to miss Yelle's tour stop in LA because of midterms.

WHEN IS SHE COMING BACK to North America!!!??

[sirhill77]

She made a big featuring with Lady Gaga and Pink on a French radio (FG radio) this WE! It was completly insane and anthologic! I can't find it anywhere. Someone got it???

[gunmasterace00t]

i'm so mad i was 20 minuts away from the city and couldn't go :(

[sknotewwn18whwi5g]

That sucks. I would be mad too. I share your madness

( :

[CetMensemble]

Elle met de l'ambiance ^^

[PookiePorn]

What a great performer.

Amazing music.

Great voice.

LOVE HER

[philipp4130]

hahaha, yeah that's awesome, I do the same exact thing when I listen to her and then I have to go look at the translated lyrics to see what I'm saying!

[wielgy]

twilight!!! de ali-mex?? orale yo soy de ali-latino y tambien iré al concert de yelle, que chido nos veremos por allá, saludos.

[lennonfricotin]

I believe the music is based on a sample from "short dick man"..

[MoZaRtRoSiCkY23]

you got the reason budy the sample or rythm of the song is based on "Short Dick Man" interpreted by Gillette in the 90's

[LuaBloe]

yaelle, va te pendre. claude françois a genre 100 fois plus de classe que toi, et c'est déjà pas bien brillant.

[danyquiereclub]

[CestKoi]

[erockone]

[zoubinar]

I think you shouldn't know!

[landstrasse36]

[Safounox]

Hahaha if you know what she say you will laught for SURE i will make you a video of traduction! ;)

[djocass]

LMFAO

I bet no one there knows what the lyrics mean.

[alexvoz]

I'm seeing her at the Highline Ballroom in NY tonight! I'm excited!

[bigodin]

faut pas croire que c'est l'olympia, c'est une salle qui doit faire 5 metres de large.. c'est une tres chouette salle, mais c'est max 80 personnes dedans ... mais bon, c'est un debut et tant mieux pour yelle

[and1freestyling]

mdr les new yorkais ki chantent fr

[Crucco82]

It was an american rave party, peoples was full of drugs so why everybody was dancing and screaming... nobody knows what happened! ahahaha

[Elendil963]

"an american rave party" You make it sound as if those events can easily be defined only by naming it... I doubt it was a rave, a party, yes, definitely american too!

[Crucco82]

It was a joke! I call that a "rave party" cause is strange see americans singing european music! Maybe everyone was drunk!!!

[anastasis19902]

youre so loool

man, if u noticed...they know the lyrics...

they know yelle and her songs..

[welc0metobangkok]

Hahaha, Yelle rocking out! XD

[bershem]

me encantaaaaaaaaa

[ScotCanLiz]

Je suis épatée que Yelle soit connue aux États Unis! C'est merveilleux de voir le peuple new-yorkais ouvert à elle, chantant ses paroles (comprennes-t'il ou bien font-ils juste immiter les sons...?). Y'a rien que j'apprécie plus qu'un esprit ouvert. ;)

Great energy all around, Yelle AND the audience!

[kipouchki]

tout a fait d'accord avec toi!:D

[chingchongcheerio]

M.I.A. SHULD TEAM UP WITH YELLE !!!

[sohaylb]

holy crap that would be the GREATEST THING EVER!

[chaenel1989]

omg i would die of happiness if they did that!

[JipKranjcar]

Bien bien bien Yelle!

[brittsawesome]

she's amazing

[borrred92]

check it, her shirt is from h&m lol that's my favorite store, which makes her my favorite person right now.

amazing performance, she has SO MUCH energy, I'd love to see her live soon =) hope she comes again to new york!

[peters4044]

Awesome - I wish I had been at that show... would have been a fun night.

As for those who say she couldn't make it in the US music scene because Americans don't like foreign music - that's a bunch a crap.

[ABoyUprising]

Ah i agree with all you guys, but haha witha little faith, Both justice and yelle will be slapping the states in the face with this stuff.

Just wait and seee!

[checcbob]

She starts to perform in the US now ? x)

I was at her concert in Paris few days ago! I never danced and shouted so much in my whole life ^^ I agree with MAXAM4444... I'm not sure she will succeed in the mainstream in the US, she's probably not american-like enough... maybe that's not so bad...

C'est frais! =D

[echoise]

Not American-like enough is right, unfortunately. Too few people here are open to foreign music. But I think you should give us more credit, not all American artists sound the same. No need to imply anything.

[kyoobeh]

heh.. i've talked to a lot of my friends who think this music plain flat KICKS ASS

i HOPE yelle makes it in the USA, i want to HEAR and SEE more from her

her concerts look fuckin wild!!!!

[MAXAM4444]

Yes, Yelle is absolutely a natural born performer, and just the thought kills me that she may not become a hit in the U.S. even with her MTV exposure :*(

[Jassy1979]

Ain't it amazing? As soon as some music appears on MTV everybody completely freaks out and suddenly "loves" it, whereas before rarely anyone cared...

I like her music, too, but I think that basically it is the press and MTV who decide over a musicians success and not the musician's talent...that's somehow sad...

[m7ad6e]

depends on what you mean by success you should give the average joe more credit in there taste in music. don't bye in to the hype beast.

[derrangED]

she had to do something well in order for mtv to notice her.

[Bagface]

i know. I was tryin to do that tektonik dance from "acdg" a year ago n got weird looks. bet everybody's gonna be doin it now.

[Trentatrontarino]

I mean i was a huge fan before mtv, but i agree with you that she got her publicity in america because of mtv. Not really a bad thing

[MAXAM4444]

lol I'm actually afraid that Americans won't like her. I mean let's be real - most people will classify her music as "Euro-Trash," and I'm american, but I know that most other Americans don't appreciate that stuff, simply because it's foreign. And the fact that it's French? Even worse for her. Americans hate French anything, French is always the butt of American jokes. Dammit, America! Be more open!

[hjplendlii]

WAIT A GOD DAMN MIINUTE!! MTV played music?!

[echoise]

This happened with M.I.A.

[betsile]

AHHH I'm so jealous I can't make it to ANY of her shows :( Everyone upload them!!!!

[melissa014]

pretty awesome how they're singing along with her. i only know the chorus... i'm lame, lol.

[ninesevenseven]

I love YELLE! She's coming to NYC again in May.  Get your tickets!
