[Standard420247]

I don't get it, why the not live?

[betomembrane]

@Standard420247 cuz its a playback D:

[Standard420247]

@betomembrane might not be totally live but its not a total lip sync, he is singing

[emsky2000posse]

@betomembrane u fool u can see them singing...are u blind or what???

[CEChrisN]

<3



[Candykay280]

He reminds me of Darren Hayes in his early Savage Garden years. Gorgeous!

[Baatish]

WOW!!! When I first heard this song me and my friend had no idea this was a guy singing as we heard it at the outro of an AMV, but when my friend some how git its video he told me and to be honest we really detest the video of this song in fact I dubbed the video of this song with Marlyin Mansons Better of two Evils.

[ggallin5]

ill suck is dick!!

[ivankinggarcia]

I could have swear it was a woman singing when i first heard it! This man has creeped out my penis!

[neoglacius]

@ivankinggarcia its a simple effect made by a vocoder

[TheZajebant25]

That is man singing?!?!!!!!No shit

[sonique25]

no mames...playback? que bastardos

[cierreszippers]

I love air

[toxications]

This is live... The entire song, except from the solo and the guitar, is generated by his synthasiser, including the sound bend on his voice.

[Baatish]

Is his voice really like this or is he making it like this to sing this song???????

[gottagota]

@Baatish : he is making it like to sing .

[unchainded]

wow i LOVE this version of a song.... :D but i really don't like the actual video of cherry blossom girl.. it's a bit .. ehm. <.< even tho that can be seen as an art of it's sort :)

[unclebob100]

Great bedroom tune....

[plplplplomg]

heh there is more stuff like this, for example main Naruto voice actor is woman :P And its pretty nice song.

[Kingyousy]

FUKIN TROLLS GO TO HELL

[xXEMOXROXx]

hey .. two fucktards arguing on youtube... drop the arguement and get on with ur lives

[MrBennys]

@xXEMOXROXx Ha Ha good comment mate.

[joerover22]

can definately tell its lip sync.

[hubbabubbly]

i dont like french people.....

[hotfukka]

@hubbabubbly We don't like you either! Whatever the fuck you are.

[alithe25king]

whats the lady doin here? she aint a part of the band so i thought they might wanna make the remake of their official video!! and it would be gettin down and dirty on the stage!! but apparently noo.

[OxCarly]

The Tune is soo seductive. I had to download it to my iPhone or else I was going to die!

AMAZING SONG!

[pumista64]

im pretty sure its just a playback...thats what most groups do when they play on a tv show or something.

[DEUSo0oxo0oDRACO]

q poderoso video = se olle bien

[SnuffyWuffles]

they look really uncomfortable here.

[NicoleKidA]

The fact that it's pre-recorded is sort of funny and sad at the same time.

[Rhndevu]

cool accent

[sensational226]

Gosh the singer is so gorgeous, I love him!!

[kenisinoregon]

that guitar player never missed a note! hes amazing and so is the singer! how the hell is he doing that?!

[otakuuuuuu1]

its not live.....everything is pre recorded, they are miming. that's how it is on top of the pops

[xThoRr]

isn't it a female voice? anyway, one of my favourite songs.

[TheUndert0ker]

no i think this guy has some kind of super falsetto

[ZosoDelta]

it's probably a vocoder.

[sodiumsimone02]

I Love JB!<3

[swordfishmatador]

Im glad to be back in Europe. They dont have great music like this in the U.S. Back there the music is all about spinning rims and ridiculously large medallions.

[joerover22]

lol, you're dumb. thats RAP CRAP, we still have great music in the US dumbass.

[joerover22]

Listen, Homey, mate, bullocks, whatever. check out my morning jacket, she & him, gorillaz, band of horses, two gallants - its funny cause europeans demand that they come overseas to play shows there. by the way I graduated college already with my PhD Pharmacy. nice try though. Keep enjoying that drum and bass crap. Vous etes tres stupide et ignorant, et plus que probable, vous travaillez a McDonalds. Yeah, I took French in school, that must make me stupid huh?

[joerover22]

Oh you're from spain huh, i guess keep enjoying riding and mounting those bulls then. Letting them run over people in the streets and killing people... Lets all run from a pack of bulls in the middle of downtown!!!!! Who's the dumbass? Enjoy your international McDonald's, surely someone spits in your food everytime you go in there troll.

[swordfishmatador]

@joerover22 Well unfortunately, I have to go I have better things to do that argue with wanks like you. I can just say thanks for entertaining me. By the way "Ill take a big mack homey"lol!

[Iloveartforever]

..so niceeee..i want to be in love! the lyrics remind me so much of a moment from my life..I miss him so much.

[swordfishmatador]

I miss you too.

[AR4ERaj]

France OWNs!

[Draqonfly]

i thought this song was sung by a female.

bloody hell, after weeks and weeks of listening to this bloody awesome song.. i find out its a guy who sings it !

Bloody awesome !

[hh73]

its a vocoder

[moon2008848]

oh my god!! this is a dream of man...i love him!!!

[moon2008848]

this guy is so cute!! and very nice song!!

[d2genx]

sounds dreamy!! he also looks like an anime boy!! cutee..i must say...and whats the girl doing sitting on the couch?? who is she??

[bluemeanies1]

i agree, im not into anime, but his hair, jacket and the way he stands makes him look like an anime character.

[PandaBoo92]

@d2genx the cherry blossom girl ;)

[d2genx]

is that his voice..or a girls?? i am confused..!!

[michaelpister]

He's using a vocoder, that's a synthesizer which combines the spoken word (source) with a synthesized sound (carrier). No other temporary group uses it an such an "eloquent" manner. AIR rules !!!

[bubupianisimo]

then you have not heard of Black moth super rainbow

[andresviveros]

he uses an instrument called a vocoder or something to change his voice

[iloveh900]

i thought a girl sang that!

[Stellsailor]

the boys want to sing like girls and girls as boys

[Orsojka]

JB could be the outcome of a "newer kindle" of Alain Delon:)

[LePig102]

Nooooooooooooooooo

[Valianso]

is this playback?

[nlucas990]

a beautiful song, bella! Air's melodies are so dreamy

[cathyvassiliou]

ABSOLUTELY.

[gp3115]

cherry blossom girl...

[LePig102]

lol this is soooo bad, why didnt they just stand around instead N take the piss, let TOTP loose all its viewers due to lip syncing ect

FUCK THE BBC THE NO:1 PROPAGANDA REEL IN THE UK

[Raselenas]

what a cuty pie... love Air

[Qbakss]

wtf?

[dannydarko76]

If you think this is ridiculous lip syncing, do a search for nirvana's teenage spirit on Top of the Pops - it's the perfect boycott

[soulpo09]

no maaaaaaaaaaa q buena rola, me hace recordar a una linda chika

[megustamiarte]

Para Daniel..s e que te gsuta resto!!

[theasia378]

i love them

this song is... wow i dunno

they're actually really cute!

[SeekerB1]

i love you

frank

[nan9550daft]

una de las mejores canciones del mundo

[zentellay]

Que bonita!

[bardakmd]

Definitivamente una de las mejores bandas de todo el mundo, este tipo de musica solo son resultado de ua gran inspiracion combinada con un gran talento. saludos

[Shmeggers22]

This song reminds me of a guy i like

[WuHa105]

[TenshiIsHere79]

ööh they sing every song with that voice...and it's THAT voice that is so suberb :D

[TammxX]

[heavy671]

[phoranea]

Jean Benoit is delicious :D

[lahes46]

[tedbassman]

Putain, c'est du playback, ca craint !

[ciara768]

Oooooo the guy singing (who app, isnt actually singing, lol) is rather dishy!!! ^.^

[rocknrollsnob]

can't it be something like a voice converter?

[shagster1970]

Its Jean-Benoît Dunckel singing. Is a bloke.

[yorke1111]

yes loser??

try to sing like these "girl"

[doremi5002]

thanks for sharing

lilly

[yorke1111]

haha,de nada y lamento que tengas que ver como dejo un mal comentario a este sujeto,pero no sabe apreciar a una de las mejores bandas del mundo actual,besos lilly^-^

[pauluciuzza]

li amo

[Ginevra999]

Veramente Fantastica...

[shagster1970]

Its Top Of The Pops. All the performers lip synced. It was part of the show unfortunately.

[GAldebert]

pourquoi avoir fait du playback

je ne pensais pas qu'ils accepteraient cela!

[MarkusCloud]

Eine so Super nummer mit so'n schlechtem playback....würd ich als musiker niii machen!!

[swifts68]

Caramba, c'est génial !

WHAT A HAUNTING SONG.

[quartercherries]

I can't believe they'd ever stoop to lip syncing. But I am sort of naive..

[cryingshame06]

A requirement to appear on Top of the Pops was that you must lip synch.

[OnThe54]

Even though I love Air, you can tell that they're lip syncing.

*feels sad*

[metox04]

holy s.hit, i got motion sickness!.. my ears can't believe my eyes..

[LutjeKabal]

Well, it is like he whispers parts of the song, while a tape with a more electro groove plays in the background, or the other way around ^^!

[LawrenceDreaming]

The girl is very pretty, and this song is so sad, im very moved by it.

[manicsunshine]

This is by far one of my favorite songs ever. Air is a lovely group both of them are extremely handsome. The music is just amazing.

[sisliyagmur]

AttentioN;

PLease PLEASE please Watch ;

Cherry blossom girl (cats version)

/watch?v=rXzKrufy8J8

[jcarrig]

i think he's miming. the vocals are exactly the same as the studio track! impossible.

[jcarrig]

oh i get it, you dubbed the studio track over the video or something? hmmmmm, or not. either way im confused

[mikeygeeuk]

course he's miming!

[LutjeKabal]

It is obvious, he is mouning over the original recording, notice that some lyrics aren´t 100% true to the original version. [!]

[marcoryry]

You'll hear his "live" voice if you have a better sounding system.

[valemuet]

If you want to hear them live, go to france

[RanHarasaki]

he's a pretteh boy eh? and the song isn't supposed to be happy at all. it's a sad song. sad meaning.

[mikeygeeuk]

watch the actual video u ite understand the girls presence better

[Melvins82]

No mames wey jajaja no has escuchado a la de jonas bjerre del grupo mew.. es la voz mas bella que hayas escuchadoo.. escucha i should have been a tsin tsi..esa si es androgena pa ke veas.

[guseloy]

hermosa vos de puto...jaja me encanta, esta vos androgena es dulce para mis oidos

[lilmrspumpkinz]

the girl on the couch is annoying

[SiressW]

That's some hella synthesizers the dude has working for him. Sounds good... If I ever get stuck in prison I hope he's my cell mate.

:-P

[Wheatheredtome]

he kinda look's like mikel j fox or what ever his name was you know the teen wolf guy, i'm surprised i still remember that movie it's a pretty old school movie :3

any way that's neet is that really his voice, i definatly though it was a girl singing though how wrong i was, sugoi ^_^ song though

later,

[daspare1]

What the hell is the girl on the couch supposed to be doing?

[undiente]

Thats probably the worsest yet funnierest playback by AIR. Man, their faces tell how bad and humiliated are they feeling :( anyway AIR rules

[fennerman]

agreed.

[HarumiSamaa]

His voice sounds like a girls and just think what his voice sounded like BEFORE he went through puberty!(I dont even wanna know)

[JohnLeigue]

that voice is the product of synths... i.e its not his real voice

[ivdycke]

doesn't matter, the sound is good, give's me an enormous sense of wellbeing, makes me happy ;-)

[HarumiSamaa]

everyone is right.....he is kinda cute

[Akaichou95]

that voice...is a guys!!! o_0!!!!

[printablepaper]

I'm sorry, but if this is live, I'm a monkeys left testicle...

[mecallkate]

yes, it's live, it's his voice, go buy the CD

[rut8888]

This is NOT live

[o0xst]

live?

[betomembrane]

nop not live sorry dude xD

[annarella87]

ma è maschio o femmina? male or female? :?

[animatopiababy101]

definitely a guy:) i think they use something to distort the voice into that of a female. the device is supposedly quite rare

[sandruzza22]

chi il cantante?è maschio!!ma ha una voce femminile!!come faccia non si sa!

[sandruzza22]

my favourite song

[Meovah]

this was NO live :D

[drunkofwhee]

totp performances are just embarassing i think

[gangbanginferno]

Had no idea they did totp! They should've had the girl lip synching, or something off the wall like a robot. Still, hands in the air...

[omnivorous65]

That must be one of the worst attempts at lip synching ever. He is not even trying. And why should he.

[homeagain1]

He's a professional musician, so I'm pretty sure he's able to handle that. It just seems the audio out of sync with the video. If only I had a dime for all the times that happens on Youtube...

[omnivorous65]

It is not so much a question whether he is able to but whether he wants to. I can understand that an artist is just fed up with such a charade. Everyone knows it's not live. Why even pretending? Which does not invalidates your guess that it might be a technical thing.

[pinkshrimp]

The girl was useless..

[ryder788]

Great song, nice voice, cute face - i'm getting the CD.

[tecknodog]

He's cute lol still very funny hahaha!

[powerbookg]

Lip synching

[pinkmariou]

I love Air... I wanna see them in liiiive!

[PhouFoo]

oh come on!!!!!!!!

thats so NOT live!

i love air but this was t4h lol!

[Ujiam]

yep, it's true that it's playback, which is a shame, but I can assure you it's not any worse live!

and yes, it IS that man singing. :D

[nikita611]

Gosh, that guy...Is...Is he really singing? I mean, WTF? He sounds like a girl! He's voice is gorgeous!!! I'm a girl and my voice is not as cute as his xD Not even near!

5/5

[Ladon68]

who the fuck is singing?? that guy?? is it a guy?? im confuzzeled

[andersmark]

Love it, its magic.

From tonight it reminds me of a bright shining girl.

[zepascalou]

Playback performance

Air is virtual music to me...

pascalcolombmusic

[akimcharlotte]

omg... it's soooo excellent!!!...

[iPandaness]

o____o it's disturbingly good. hm. intersting...

[GarlynX]

lol true it's hypnotising......

[mariomemordio]

Adoro esta cancion carajo !!!

[dinesor]

...

such great talents.

its a shame!

[Foadasse]

playback, not live..

[korndud]

you sure? how do you know this.

[polke14]

im 100% sure, first of all i know the original studio taken track listen to it 100+ times. and look at his mouth!

[korndud]

so do i. thats just delay. i'm pretty sure this IS live. it not supposed to sound the same as the fucking cd. and he's obviously using something to change his voice.

[Smallvillevalley]

I love this song...Thanx for sharing this with us

[Shrubbs]

its such a good song
