who said electronic music has to be serious, self-conscient and empty...? look at this! this is the opposite! marc moulin and you guys from telex you are dearly missed! we need some alternative! :)
This song is awesome and the video can't be better. So sad, so full of fun... all at once! The surprisingly long shot of them seated in a chair - in my opinion, the best one in all history of musical clips - is the pure image of the resignation, the acceptance of the facts, while the music, full of rhythm, doesn't stop: We are all getting old! All mixed together, instead of depressing me, makes me feel happy, optimistic, to love the live.
Telex was a really hit-and-miss band. They had some really brilliant songs (like this one) and they made some really awful stuff, too. Thanks for posting this!
My dream has been fulfilled! On the road again! Well..it´s a terrific CD! But my absolutely favourite is "Neurovision" +"Wonderful world"..much better than the new one..
Boy I can dance to this!... Thanks for posting this song yaoysan. As a 16 year "getting old" futurist I loved this sound. Telex, please make some 2040 songs for us now...(perhaps using physical modeling). BTW, Syntpop, we can thank Wendy Carlos and Robert Moog (kinda, Gods) for syths and vocoders.
Fantastic

#LOL Hehehe I don't know why but I think that Marc looks like Tintin (remember Hergé's character?) in this video.

I love the way how their timing is intentionally bad. It looks like the video is made out of outtakes lol.

Yes. But he was part of creating something that won't be getting old. That weighs up for him leaving this planet prematurely.
Rest in Peace... and synth beats.

Yep, keen precision.
Also, getting older is not bad. It's the gift for not having died.

True. It seems to me my least favorite of their approaches was to slow down cover songs. Their snappier paced songs were my favorite.

It is down to a matter of opinion of course, but I think that Telex never made a bad track.
