Glad you guys are enjoying this one, as much as I did! I would like to react to a live performance for the next reaction, let me know which one will blow me away!
There is no one good answer to your question. Every live performance of "Désenchantée" would blow you away! But one of my favourites is from Mylenium Tour (2000): ua-cam.com/video/ar1fWc-cqLk/v-deo.html Scenography for this tour was projected by H. R. Giger. Amazing!
All her live openings and finals are amazing. Recently the final L'horloge was chilling. I think the opening of Mylenium Tour is the most impressive, and you can check out Timeless ballet if you want to see something surprising. And of course, most of her videoclip are like movies : one is made by Luc Besson, another is a Japanese anime...
Mylène farmer en France c'est une véritable icône ça fait 30 ans qu 'elle suscite autant de ferveur auprès de son public elle est mystérieuse apparaît peu dans les médias le peu d'interview qu'elle donne sont des évènements ces concerts sont complets au bout d'une heure et encore.. elle est une des rares chanteuse française à avoir rempli le stade de France ,ces concerts sont grandioses travailler réfléchies pensé dans le moindre détail il faut le voir c'est magique ..bref c'est une belle et grande artiste.
1er single en 1984.... la voix n'est pas tout, Céline Dion et ses nombreux octaves, très bien, mais l'émotion manque, Mylène Farmer amène un univers en plus de l'émotion, et l'émotion, elle est brute, animale, sans filtre, sans faux-semblants... Alors oui, j'applaudis si les pays anglo-saxons la découvrent enfin, eux qui adorent les shows XXL... Thanks Dereck, and if you can make the US and english Canada to discover the great, amazing artist she is, I'll love you for that... Take care
Entièrement d'accord avec toi 🙏💗 Étant moi-même fan de Mylène depuis mes 7 ans (en 1986, grâce à la chanson "Plus grandir" qui m'a définitivement bouleversée....), je suis "à fond" avec ton propos 🌷🌷🌷🤝🤝🤝❤❤❤ De la part d'une autre fan de Mylène, comme toi 🤗🥰🎶
@@hollyintheasylum155 Effectivement, beaucoup de ses chansons sont bouleversantes, mais il y a toutes les émotions, bref la vie XXL, rire et sourire, déshabillez-moi en concert, énorme, QI, et puis toute la palette des émotions, subtilement, désespoir, révolte, colère, tout ce qu'un être humain expérimente dans sa vie, mais toujours avec bienveillance et respect, un énorme respect pour la vie sous toutes ses formes, et de la bienveillance pour les humains dignes de ce nom... Take care Holly...
Je ne suis pas fan de Mylène et je ne connais pas ses discographies mais je trouve vraiment intéressant le fait qu'elle soit totalement dénigrée en France, même moquée par les intellectuels et musiciens voir même critiques. Alors, qu'elle reste extrêmement discrète, remplie des stades à craquer et qu'elle fait des shows dignes des plus grosses stars américaines! C'est assez incroyable, je trouve.
I was there the night they filmed portions of the concert, since it was the only night Sting joined her on stage. Did the Film 2019 attract big audiences in Mexico? Much, MUCH love from Macedonia.
Thanks Dereck for reacting to Mylene, as far as I know you are the only person on UA-cam to do this which makes me very happy. I am from the UK and whilst I only understand a little French I have watched all of Mylene's concert DVD's and have been mesmerised by them all. I have never seen an artiste generate so many emotions from her audience from joy to tears, in fact how many concerts have you watched where even the men are crying.You my friend are in for an unforgettable journey into the Mylene Farmer universe.
She is such a great artist , and yes "je te rends ton amour " is one of the best and many others . vid i no problem to find , i have it on cd . But you forget the master who helped making her. LAURENT BOUTONNAT , he is waw ... its Mozart reincarnated and the feel of his music has a very satanic feel as is mylene in fact, everything the label , the vids , music very subtle and dark angel inspired . I am not a satanist , i am just a mylene fan , but laurent surely is and the labet of the music company is fuul of symbolism a bit like tool: maynard
Mylène Farmer, de son vrai nom Jeanne Gautier, née le 12 septembre 1961 à Pierrefonds, au Québec, c'est une Canadienne qui a reçu la nationalité Française pour être plus précis. Et oui quel talent et quel univers.
I advise you to watch two clips: "Libertine" and "Pourvu qu'elles soient douces". It's a real film in two parts ("Libertine": part I and "Pourvu": part II) After that I think that what she did until the album Innamoramento is perfect (and : "California" is directed by Abel Ferrara; "xxl" by Marcus Niespel)
Sais-tu où je pourrais retrouver le reportage explicatif du clip de California? C'est une reportage d'une série diffusée il y a des années sur La 5e (ou Arte) qui décortiquait les clips, dont "California"...
The end of the clip instead of the happiness of Freedom is that they realize that there's no way to go but to walk into the snow fields, desolation and probably death.
Maybe it's not "happiness of Freedom" but "freedom" itself. Freedom is something frightening, that's why they walk very slowly, almost desolated, cause freedom is hard, and there's no promises through freedom. Freedom is the most difficult fight, not against masters, not against tyrants, but ourselves. Just ourselves, being our own masters
Yaaaas!!! I discovered Mylene Farmer Years ago thanks to a Monica Naranjo forum, years later I have even travel to France to see her in concert. She is major pop loving legend of that European country.
Mylène is amazing... I am blessed, ad a French-Canadian, to have grown up and had her music as part of the soundtrack of my life. This song came out when I was graduating from high school.
Hello, si tu continue à étudier les titres de Mylène Farmer, tu vas avoir du JOB 😉..... Du clip à la scène il y a matière. Elle est un univers à elle seule. 🥰😍
@@TheBastos026 Disons que Mylène Farmer est la création de Laurent Boutonnat, mais les deux ont très bien su s'entendre pour arriver à proposer le meilleur à son public.
Oh, I remember hearing this song, I was fascinated by the sound and ,although I don't speak french , I still can sing along the chorus , I mean , 30 years have passed, I was 16 then ☺️
Dude your reactions are so fun to watch haha. I'm frenchspeaking, a drummer and I've loved and listened to this song for years and years it's fun to see you react the way you do, epic. kuddos and blessings
It’s sad to see that she doesn’t work with him anymore, not as often. But I understand why. He was the one who gave her such unique sounds in the 80-90s though
Disenchanted is the hymn of Mylene Farmer! As soon as she plays those first notes in concert, something incredible happens in the room. I can not describe. I have chills. look at this song in the Timeless 2013 concert, easy to find, for me one of the best shows ... this clip is made by Laurent Boutonnat his accomplice whose each clip is extraordinary. Mylene Famer is rare even in France. she is an amazing artist who should have the aura of Madonna or others
Mylène is my favorite singer of all time, she is an icon in France and disenchanted is her flagship music, the most famous of all in the country. Listen to it live (2009 live version, the best) it's just amazing. You do a good job I love your videos!
You prob know this since I’m assuming you gathered info, but this song was the most air played song in France in 1991. Being no1 for 9 weeks straight and in the top 10 for the following 16, meaning 25 weeks in the top 10 alone. It was popular all over Europe, even in my country that has nothing to do with France and it’s really small, had this song come from the radios. And it still does. Personally, if I had to choose a favourite, it would be this song. I’m sure it’s the same for many other fans, the lyrics of this song are so beautiful yet sad. You can see her use of poems clearly. Also it’s funny how you wouldn’t think the lyrics are this sad just by listening to the melody alone. Here’s a translation of them (it’s not mine, I found this in a comment section and I think it’s the most beautiful one I’ve seen so far): “Swimming in the troubled waters, I look to tomorrow, to wait here my end. Floating in the heavy air, with nothing and no one to give my hand to. If I shall fall from ahigh, may my descent be slow. I’ve only found rest in indifference. Even then, I wish I could my innocence again, but nothing has meaning anymore, and nothing is going well. Everything is chaos, set in tune. All my ideals, are words rendered useless. I look for a soul who could help me, but I am part of a disenchanted generation, disenchanted. Who could prevent me to hear it all, when their reasoning falls in shambles. To whose breast should I bind loyalty to, to cradle us in the womb. If death was a mystery, life would have no tenderness. If the sky has a hell, then the sky can very well wait for me. Tell me, in these opposite winds, how can I do it? Nothing has meaning anymore and, nothing is going well. Everything is chaos....”
Oh oui, les paroles sont formidables (et toujours d'actualité....), et c'est bien que tu les mettes ici en anglais. J'avais 13 ans en 1991 et ce clip, je l'ai tellement regardé au Top 50 ! Fascinant !!!! (et beaucoup plus "regardable" que les précédents devant ma famille car moins "osé" que les chefs d'oeuvres que sont "Pourvu qu'elles soient douces" ou "Beyond my control", par exemple, sans oublier "Libertine", évidemment...). Tiens, pour info, si tu es intéressé, un youtubeur, Dr Jodel, a fait une sacrée bonne analyse du clip "Désenchantée" sur sa chaîne, avec beaucoup d'anecdotes et des scènes coupées, interviews de Mylène et Laurent Boutonnat, ça vaut vraiment le coup de regarder car après, on visionne le clip d'une autre manière, vu les circonstances dans lesquelles il a été tourné.... ua-cam.com/video/gR6Obx9AzCg/v-deo.html
"Désenchantée" is Mylene's hymn, this song has been her greatest success ever and it fits well to our current world and the song has become the hymn of a new generation
Hi Derek! Desenchantee is a hit at all times and in many countries! This song is one of the most popular in Russia. You're right, the clip is very cinematic. Many of Mylene Farmer's early career music videos were like this. This is microfilm! You should pay attention to Libertine and Pourvu qu'elles soient douces. These two music videos are United by one story. And music keeps me going for 20 years!) Thank You Derek!))
Thanks Dereck for reviewing my youth through your reactions! Mylène is a true pro, this video was shot in Hungary and like most of her videos , truly epic..
I am so glad you discovered Myléne. She's one of my all-time favorite singers, although I barely understand French (I am currently studying it). Greetings from COL
Désenchantée version live concert timeless est juste magnifique. Merci pour ce partage Mylęne est la plus grande chanteuse française . Ses concerts sont magnifiques et géants.
Love Myléne Farmer! Thanks for posting this, a song of my childhood. Myléne Farmer's videos are marvellous. You have many more songs and videos to explore. Rêver, California, Mon Ange diabolique, Libertine, Sans Contrefaçon, Fuck them all, Ainsi sois je, and more and more. Thank you! 😍
hello look at his last concert .. just sublime the arrival on stage and the disenchanted song put forward .. mylene on flying stages. just sublime .. look at this concert in june 2019. you will not be on it i was there .. it was magnificent. I love mylene farmer for 30 years
I really appreciate your reactions. My favorite song of Mylene is INNAMORAMENTO (Mylenium Tour 1999). Then « C’est une belle journée », « je laisse le vent emporter tout », « Ainsi dois-je », « je te rends mon amour ». And of course « Sans Contrefaçon » , « Libertine », and « Pourvu qu’elles soient douces ».
As a french fan who's been mocked for it it really feels good to see some international love for this amazing artist, thanks for the video and thanks for this comment section
I’m a bit late but I just found out your video. Just a remark about the music video, and the ending : yes they are free, but are now lost in a snowy desert with nothing in the distance. The successful rebellion gave them high hopes and those hopes died when realization kicked in : only death awaits them. Which ties in with the title of the song - Disillusioned - and the lyrics : the world has gone to shit, youth has nothing to look forward to, nothing to hold on to, all they/we can do is going through the motions until the bitter end.
Glad to see you're continuing down this rabbit hole. The wonderland of Mylène is worth discovering at length, for both the music and the imagery. You'll enjoy this trip. And so will we!
Yes Dereck, that music video is indeed freakin amazing. As a matter of fact it's my absolute favorite no 1 video from the MTV-era in the ninetees. Check out her later video "A L'Ombre" from 2012. Amazing video, as well. Mylene is the queen of pop.
Laurent Boutonnat's passion is making movies with Mylene. So he composed songs to "use" Mylene. He did it like a worker. What an excellent worker! Piano by Bruno Fontaine (from Mylène's Tour 1989) because Laurent Boutonnat couldn't find the good sound himself with his keyboards. 💜💐🌠
This song was so popular all over Europe. And in the 2000s the belgian artist Kate Ryan made a dance cover of it and it became popular once again. I'm a 27 years old Swedish person and nobody I know cannot sing along to this song even though barely anyone speaks french. Mylène is an icon
Mylène Farmer is the biggest artist in France. I saw her one year ago during her show and it was the most beautiful moment of my life. I’ve never seen a show like that before.
Hi! Do you have any idea why Mylenes' music hasn't been spread more in northern Europe? Here in Sweden we saw and heard her 3 - 4 biggest songs on MTV in the early ninetees, which were very popular and most people knew her name. Not so today. She was forgotten, and today when I play the UA-cam videos "A L'Ombre" and "Du Temps", for my friends, they are totally jaw dropped and amazed. When I tell them that Mylene is Europes biggest artist, they can hardly believe me. Because they never heard of her. Her songs is never played on radio or telly in Sweden. You need to search for her yourself on UA-cam. Is this something with her record company, or is it herself that made this choice?
Björn Johansson Mylène Farmer is a very discreet artist. She’s not commercial and she doesn’t promote her music a lot so that’s maybe why she’s not very popular in the rest of the world. Also, her shows are very rare, she goes on tour every 5 or 7 years after her last tour. During this period of time she is very discreet but that’s her choice. She want to be rare and kind of “exclusive”. And when she’s on tour she perform exclusively in France and sometimes in Russia because she is very famous there. That’s maybe another reason why she’s not very famous elsewhere than in France where she is an indisputable legend. As I said, she’s very discreet and rare. She’s also very mysterious. That’s some of the reasons why she’s not famous elsewhere but that’s also one of the reasons why she’s an incredible artist.
Mylene Farmer is an amazing artist. Intemporal yet ahead of her time. As a young guy raised with Ra, R&B and Reggae, I still couldn't help but rock her sounds. And who else could film a Wuxia-style clip with none other than Ching Siu-Tung? She's a legend.
Your reaction it's very similar to mine when I watched this video the very first time: i didn't know that was better: music or video? Then I read the lyrics and fell totally in love with Mylène, my favorite singer and this is my favorite song of hers. 😁
1:28 : You have NO idea, my friend! ALL Mylène's videos are like this (as far back as I can remember except for "Maman a tord")! XD I LOVE watching you (or anyone) react to Mylène Farmer for the 1st time discovering those songs! :D 16:57 : If you love those kinds of artists, Mylène Farmer is right up your alley for this; she's well known for taking inspiration from writers and thinkers. A lot of her songs could be said as philosophical. :)
You must see Libertine and immediately Pourvu qu'elles soient douces. You will be delighted! This is the whole story! This is love from the first notes! Moreover, PQSD needs to be fixed by watching a hot live 2009! Adore Mylène ❤️❤️❤️
I got to know Desenchantee thanks to Kate Ryan's 2002 dance-pop cover of the song. It was such a huge hit in Belgium. It was really perfect for all of us moody teenagers at the moment.
@Dereck Reacts Hello Dereck ! There's a problem with the video you've chosen. There's no black screen in the official video. A lot of the plot is missing. You didn't choose the right video. The official link is this one : ua-cam.com/video/vkiyW0vqat8/v-deo.html Like you've probably read, "Désenchantée" is her absolute hymn ! There can be no Mylène's concert without this song. Everyone is waiting for it and the crowd goes mad each time she sings it. I think the most memorable live of this song is this one (Stade de France concert - 2009) : ua-cam.com/video/jyZL3xcYcNU/v-deo.html even if I love the Mylènium tour version better for the memories of it. Hope you will react to other videos of her ! (Choosing the right link on her UA-cam channel ^^). I highly recommend "Je te rends ton amour", "Sans logique", "Sans contrefaçon", "California" and "Beyond my control" to start ! ("Je te rends ton amour" is the only one that is not on UA-cam but you can watch it on dailymotion here : www.dailymotion.com/video/x5hnzc6 )
Ok, listen. If you enjoyed these older song of her with this quality of video, you must watchi Libertine and Pourvu Quelles Soient Douces (in that order, the second is a sequel of the first). Sans Contrefacon is also an excellent song with cool video. Regarding a live version of this, I like the one in 2009, in the Stade de France (nº5 on tour). Great reaction. If you go deeper on the lyrics of each song you will also be delighted ;)
I am so happy to see you discovering and sharing all the great vibes french music has brought. I can definitely help for more of them if needed :)) Love
Glad you guys are enjoying this one, as much as I did! I would like to react to a live performance for the next reaction, let me know which one will blow me away!
Thank you so much for your reaction ! That was great. Mylene Farmer - L'Horloge live 2019 will definitely blow you away !!

He can blur the nudity if needed
One word : thanks! America got Madonna Australia got Kylie and we got Mylène ^^

You should also react to 'Moi... Lolita' by Alizée. Mylene wrote it and Alizée just fit so perfectly in it. A French classic of the 2000!

Being no1 for 9 weeks straight and in the top 10 for the following 16, meaning 25 weeks in the top 10 alone. It was popular all over Europe, even in my country that has nothing to do with France and it’s really small, had this song come from the radios. And it still does. Personally, if I had to choose a favourite, it would be this song. I’m sure it’s the same for many other fans, the lyrics of this song are so beautiful yet sad. You can see her use of poems clearly. Also it’s funny how you wouldn’t think the lyrics are this sad just by listening to the melody alone. Here’s a translation of them (it’s not mine, I found this in a comment section and I think it’s the most beautiful one I’ve seen so far):
“Swimming in the troubled waters, I look to tomorrow, to wait here my end. Floating in the heavy air, with nothing and no one to give my hand to.
If I shall fall from ahigh, may my descent be slow. I’ve only found rest in indifference. Even then, I wish I could my innocence again, but nothing has meaning anymore, and nothing is going well.
Everything is chaos, set in tune. All my ideals, are words rendered useless. I look for a soul who could help me, but I am part of a disenchanted generation, disenchanted.
Who could prevent me to hear it all, when their reasoning falls in shambles. To whose breast should I bind loyalty to, to cradle us in the womb.
If death was a mystery, life would have no tenderness. If the sky has a hell, then the sky can very well wait for me. Tell me, in these opposite winds, how can I do it? Nothing has meaning anymore and, nothing is going well.
Everything is chaos....”
Oh oui, les paroles sont formidables (et toujours d'actualité....), et c'est bien que tu les mettes ici en anglais. J'avais 13 ans en 1991 et ce clip, je l'ai tellement regardé au Top 50 ! Fascinant !!!! (et beaucoup plus "regardable" que les précédents devant ma famille car moins "osé" que les chefs d'oeuvres que sont "Pourvu qu'elles soient douces" ou "Beyond my control", par exemple, sans oublier "Libertine", évidemment...). Tiens, pour info, si tu es intéressé, un youtubeur, Dr Jodel, a fait une sacrée bonne analyse du clip "Désenchantée" sur sa chaîne, avec beaucoup d'anecdotes et des scènes coupées, interviews de Mylène et Laurent Boutonnat, ça vaut vraiment le coup de regarder car après, on visionne le clip d'une autre manière, vu les circonstances dans lesquelles il a été tourné.... ua-cam.com/video/gR6Obx9AzCg/v-deo.html
Look at the Live 2019 performance of this song! :) I was there and it was remarkable.
"Désenchantée" is Mylene's hymn, this song has been her greatest success ever and it fits well to our current world and the song has become the hymn of a new generation
Hi Derek! Desenchantee is a hit at all times and in many countries! This song is one of the most popular in Russia. You're right, the clip is very cinematic. Many of Mylene Farmer's early career music videos were like this. This is microfilm! You should pay attention to Libertine and Pourvu qu'elles soient douces. These two music videos are United by one story. And music keeps me going for 20 years!) Thank You Derek!))
Thanks Dereck for reviewing my youth through your reactions! Mylène is a true pro, this video was shot in Hungary and like most of her videos , truly epic..
I. Love the french culture
Mylene Farmer es una artista en toda la extensión de la palabra. Ojalá continues reaccionando a sus vídeos. Los lives son lo mejor. From México.
Most of her music videos are cinematic quality like this. She is an incredible artist.
Live performance of "C'est une belle journee" - live timeless 2013 - With the robots , very fun
I missed the concert ua-cam.com/video/Vcc0VVCASSI/v-deo.html
Bienvenue dans la communauté Farmer !!!
I am so glad you discovered Myléne. She's one of my all-time favorite singers, although I barely understand French (I am currently studying it). Greetings from COL
amazing song
This song is the most iconic song of Mylene, a real hymn.
This is the song in which people danse and sing the most.
À real moment of sharing, intense.
Désenchantée version live concert timeless est juste magnifique.
Merci pour ce partage Mylęne est la plus grande chanteuse française . Ses concerts sont magnifiques et géants.
Love Myléne Farmer! Thanks for posting this, a song of my childhood. Myléne Farmer's videos are marvellous. You have many more songs and videos to explore. Rêver, California, Mon Ange diabolique, Libertine, Sans Contrefaçon, Fuck them all, Ainsi sois je, and more and more. Thank you! 😍
hello look at his last concert .. just sublime the arrival on stage and the disenchanted song put forward .. mylene on flying stages. just sublime .. look at this concert in june 2019. you will not be on it i was there .. it was magnificent. I love mylene farmer for 30 years
I really appreciate your reactions.
My favorite song of Mylene is INNAMORAMENTO (Mylenium Tour 1999).
Then « C’est une belle journée », « je laisse le vent emporter tout », « Ainsi dois-je », « je te rends mon amour ».
And of course « Sans Contrefaçon » , « Libertine », and « Pourvu qu’elles soient douces ».
The first French radio station (France Inter) did a podcast on your videos where you react to French singers.
As a french fan who's been mocked for it it really feels good to see some international love for this amazing artist, thanks for the video and thanks for this comment section
Pue suis une grand fan et en France c est notre libertine notre mylene farmer on t aime mylene vive la France 🇫🇷 😁
You are hooked for life now :) Her backlog is absolute gold!
OMG a french singer... Well I'm proud thanks dude 👍👍👍👍
I’m a bit late but I just found out your video.
Just a remark about the music video, and the ending : yes they are free, but are now lost in a snowy desert with nothing in the distance. The successful rebellion gave them high hopes and those hopes died when realization kicked in : only death awaits them.
Which ties in with the title of the song - Disillusioned - and the lyrics : the world has gone to shit, youth has nothing to look forward to, nothing to hold on to, all they/we can do is going through the motions until the bitter end.
First person here, who understands the meaning of the video. Thx
Glad to see you're continuing down this rabbit hole. The wonderland of Mylène is worth discovering at length, for both the music and the imagery. You'll enjoy this trip. And so will we!
Yes Dereck, that music video is indeed freakin amazing. As a matter of fact it's my absolute favorite no 1 video from the MTV-era in the ninetees. Check out her later video "A L'Ombre" from 2012. Amazing video, as well. Mylene is the queen of pop.
I looooooooove this woman! Such an artist! France’s gem. ”L’Autre” album was the second vinyl ever bought. First one was a-ha.
Her music video clips are just masterpieces ✨
Merci UA-cam de m'avoir conseillé cette vidéo ! C'est tellement chouette de voir les réactions à une chanson qui me donne toujours autant de frissons.
Laurent Boutonnat's passion is making movies with Mylene. So he composed songs to "use" Mylene. He did it like a worker. What an excellent worker! Piano by Bruno Fontaine (from Mylène's Tour 1989) because Laurent Boutonnat couldn't find the good sound himself with his keyboards. 💜💐🌠
Mylène, la super star ;)
And you can't imagine the effect in concert in Paris! That's not just amazing, that's more than!
J ai eu la chance de la voir au stade de France. Et à l arena. Elle est purement magnifique
Милен Фармер потрясающая певица и актриса.
Я тоже так считаю!! Она невероятная!! :3
Даааааа
This song was so popular all over Europe. And in the 2000s the belgian artist Kate Ryan made a dance cover of it and it became popular once again. I'm a 27 years old Swedish person and nobody I know cannot sing along to this song even though barely anyone speaks french. Mylène is an icon
Mylène Farmer is the biggest artist in France. I saw her one year ago during her show and it was the most beautiful moment of my life. I’ve never seen a show like that before.
Hi! Do you have any idea why Mylenes' music hasn't been spread more in northern Europe? Here in Sweden we saw and heard her 3 - 4 biggest songs on MTV in the early ninetees, which were very popular and most people knew her name. Not so today. She was forgotten, and today when I play the UA-cam videos "A L'Ombre" and "Du Temps", for my friends, they are totally jaw dropped and amazed. When I tell them that Mylene is Europes biggest artist, they can hardly believe me. Because they never heard of her. Her songs is never played on radio or telly in Sweden. You need to search for her yourself on UA-cam. Is this something with her record company, or is it herself that made this choice?

Mylène Farmer is a very discreet artist. She’s not commercial and she doesn’t promote her music a lot so that’s maybe why she’s not very popular in the rest of the world. Also, her shows are very rare, she goes on tour every 5 or 7 years after her last tour. During this period of time she is very discreet but that’s her choice. She want to be rare and kind of “exclusive”. And when she’s on tour she perform exclusively in France and sometimes in Russia because she is very famous there. That’s maybe another reason why she’s not very famous elsewhere than in France where she is an indisputable legend. As I said, she’s very discreet and rare. She’s also very mysterious. That’s some of the reasons why she’s not famous elsewhere but that’s also one of the reasons why she’s an incredible artist.
@@nicolasdoare5410 Yeah, I see. I could've imagine that. Well, god bless UA-cam!
Desanchantée are one of my favorite song!!
Mylene Farmer is an amazing artist. Intemporal yet ahead of her time. As a young guy raised with Ra, R&B and Reggae, I still couldn't help but rock her sounds. And who else could film a Wuxia-style clip with none other than Ching Siu-Tung? She's a legend.
Love your Channel and i love the way you analyse and revisit big French hits that we took for granted. You give a fresh new look at these songs.
This is the first song I've been able to sing on pitch. I loved it so much.
Your reaction it's very similar to mine when I watched this video the very first time: i didn't know that was better: music or video? Then I read the lyrics and fell totally in love with Mylène, my favorite singer and this is my favorite song of hers. 😁
Yes that's the best way to explain it 👌🏽
je suis un fan français et j'adore tes videos , je partage en france ^^
The come back of Mylène !
I love her and your video too !
It’s such a pleasure that a english guy talk about french music. Thank you ! ❤️
The best french artist 😍 amazing
Mylene is an incredible artist. Love her songs
What a powerful song. Absolutely amazing!
So good!!! Une de mes chansons Prefere francophone de tout les temps ;)
Love your reactions !! keep em coming
1:28 : You have NO idea, my friend! ALL Mylène's videos are like this (as far back as I can remember except for "Maman a tord")! XD
I LOVE watching you (or anyone) react to Mylène Farmer for the 1st time discovering those songs! :D
16:57 : If you love those kinds of artists, Mylène Farmer is right up your alley for this; she's well known for taking inspiration from writers and thinkers. A lot of her songs could be said as philosophical. :)
This album is the one that makes me love Mylene!
You must see Libertine and immediately Pourvu qu'elles soient douces. You will be delighted! This is the whole story! This is love from the first notes! Moreover, PQSD needs to be fixed by watching a hot live 2009! Adore Mylène ❤️❤️❤️
I got to know Desenchantee thanks to Kate Ryan's 2002 dance-pop cover of the song. It was such a huge hit in Belgium. It was really perfect for all of us moody teenagers at the moment.
@Dereck Reacts Hello Dereck ! There's a problem with the video you've chosen. There's no black screen in the official video. A lot of the plot is missing. You didn't choose the right video. The official link is this one : ua-cam.com/video/vkiyW0vqat8/v-deo.html
Like you've probably read, "Désenchantée" is her absolute hymn ! There can be no Mylène's concert without this song. Everyone is waiting for it and the crowd goes mad each time she sings it. I think the most memorable live of this song is this one (Stade de France concert - 2009) : ua-cam.com/video/jyZL3xcYcNU/v-deo.html even if I love the Mylènium tour version better for the memories of it.
Hope you will react to other videos of her ! (Choosing the right link on her UA-cam channel ^^). I highly recommend "Je te rends ton amour", "Sans logique", "Sans contrefaçon", "California" and "Beyond my control" to start ! ("Je te rends ton amour" is the only one that is not on UA-cam but you can watch it on dailymotion here : www.dailymotion.com/video/x5hnzc6 )
Thanks a lot i love her as Madonna since 80s. Thank you so much for you chanel 💟💟💟
the song of a whole generation in france
I can't believe you keep reacting to my favourite artist. I discovered you thanks to ABBA.
Ok, listen. If you enjoyed these older song of her with this quality of video, you must watchi Libertine and Pourvu Quelles Soient Douces (in that order, the second is a sequel of the first). Sans Contrefacon is also an excellent song with cool video.
Regarding a live version of this, I like the one in 2009, in the Stade de France (nº5 on tour).
Great reaction. If you go deeper on the lyrics of each song you will also be delighted ;)
I am so happy to see you discovering and sharing all the great vibes french music has brought. I can definitely help for more of them if needed :)) Love
If you want to see a live version, the one from 1996 is i think the best. The concert is the live à Bercy.
Mylène Farmer is an amazing artist ; love her songs and her voice !
Это гимн Миленщиков. Это гимн поколения 90-х. Мегахит.
C'est l'hymne de toutes les générations. Les années passent et rien ne change, toujours autant d'injustices
I just love this song!
Mylene and Madonna on one day, wow. I think you know now why Mylene is the Goddess. And this was just the beginning..
AMAZING and TIMELESS song ... vidéo perfect .. she realy put exactely what human is : Désenchanté .. thousand thanks Dereck .. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😘
