Musicisfreedom 5,837 Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 I don't see much love here for the French Queen of Pop, Mylène Farmer! She is absolutely amazing in every way and is one of my favorite artists of all time! A lot of people in the US don't really know her, but trust me, even tho her songs are in french, she is totally worth checking out. For those of you familiar with her work, what album is your favorite? And why? Bitch I'm Madonna Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubblegum Bitch 18,934 Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 I love her music, even though I can't understand what she is singing about. I think, my favorite Mylene's album is her last one, Desobeissance, because it's the first album I've listened to full. Rolling Stone, Noublie Pas, Priere, Get Up Girl — bops!

Bubblegum Bitch 18,934 Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 As for her discography, my favorite song is Apelle Mon Numero (groundbreaking.gif), I'm in love with this song, and music video is also amazing. And Je t'aime Melancolie? Mylene really serves, and I wish more people would know about her. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esteban 2,295 Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 "Anamorphosée" then "L'autre" tied with "Innamoramento". I love the trip hop and the grunge influences, the use of electric guitars, the warmer sound and the homogeneity of the whole. This album stills dark but bright at the same time and this is an album that non fans can listen to easily even if it's experimental. Edit: The last one "Désobeissance" is kinda cool too compared to "Point de suture", "Bleu noir" and "Monkey me" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anamorphosée is such a unique album in her discography and is home to some of her best music. You're right that it does have a warmer sound especially compared to her other work. Definitely one of my favorite albums from her. Bitch I'm Madonna Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really wish more people outside of France would accept her amazing music. Americans can be kinda snobby with music in foreign languages tho. Spanish even has a hard getting frequent airplay over here considering the amount of people here who speak it Bitch I'm Madonna Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, they are not a fans of this kind of songs. But, once again, I think some songs from Desobeissance would slay! 2 minutes ago, Musicisfreedom said: I believe Russia and France are very intrigued by each others culture, specifically entertainment.

Yeah, that's true. I think some of her later music from Bleu Noir-Desobeissance could do well here. But her music in general is probably too dark, and her videos are way too graphic to ever do well in the US. But it sucks because she never tours here! So I'll have to go to her next time she's doing shows Bitch I'm Madonna Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hyperballad 4,288 Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 Innamoramento for SURE I love the blend of Eastern and Western music along with the poetic and mesmerizing lyrics. It’s so euphoric and chilling. Not to mention the spectacular tour and the mesmerizing videos. By the end, I don’t know whether to feel ecstatic, completely depressed, or nothing Fun fact: I discovered her when I was 12 and asked my few Twitter followers for foreign music recommendations, someone recommended her and I listened to Innamoramento out of complete boredom... Then I was hooked lol Cut to 4 years later and I can speak/read a good amount of French, I have every single album, and I’m still completely obsessed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
