I'm fed up - music video, question.

[Kyoshiro]

I noticed that in "I'm fed up" musicvideo at time 1:56-2:06, she gots a camera and finaly throws it away...
Does it really mean something, or is it just that, i'm so freak for this kind of stupid little things.. lol

That camera-thing always get me thinking, does it mean anything... :roll:

So how is it?

[Snatcher42]

I've always taken that as anti-Paparazzi... We've discussed a few times how Lili's playing a goldfish in a bowl in that video, which can be a metaphor for loss of privacy - one major thing she's fed up with.

She looks so happy destroying it. It's like acting out a fantasy of many celebrities: to be able to grab that camera right out of a photographer's hands and smash it!

Used to be in my sig too! :)

ok, something like that i was allready thinking...
But still, i have a feeling that's not all in this camera-thing. hmm... or maybe i'm just paranoid. :?

[Steve]

it is my sig! bit I have cut out the piece in the middle which was a close up so now you see her grabbing the camera and tossing it!!

[DavidAlizée]

I never really thought about that. Yeah, i guess it could mean she is fed up with Paparazzi.

[Quentin]

And throwing up from airplanes.

[Kyoshiro]

And throwing up from airplanes.

Huh? What do you mean? I didn't understand that. :P

From I'm fed up

I'm fed up with the rain, the plane...
That makes me throw up again

Air sickness.

[Kyoshiro]

Aahh... ok, i see...
So, have Alizée said that she has a airsickness in airplane, on a interview?

[Tim]

I have no idea. One would hope not, as I guess she would fly a lot in her line of work. I think it's more that it was added because it made the song flow better than a literal translation from French. That and the fact that 'plane' rhymes with 'again'.

[Takran]

I refer you to FunTV Interview 2003-06-03; part 2 at ~9:30 if you really want to know.

J'en Ai Marre does not say anything about planes, it's zucchinis which make her sick. She's allergic to them. However as you will most certainly notice, zucchini does NOT rhyme very well with 'rain' or 'again'. :wink:

You'll have to read up on some special translations and language analyses in order to figure that one out. :cheesy:

[erk1388]

i thought the alizee song im fed up was quite weird... the lyrics was almost the same meaning as the french. this made it sound weird, at first (without looking at the lyrics) i thought it was ...

Bottle and Water
Lights up for Hours
(the rest i could kinda make up, but it was like gibberish)

It was funny cause like right after i read the lyrics, i could finally pick up the words, but i notice she like to break down the english words like when says "My gold fish IS UN... DER me" Just thought the french sounds better, but its still good SINCE ITS FROM ALIZEE!!

[Takran]

Many American artists will break words like that for musical purposes. Alizée does it in French too.

I do agree I'm Fed Up had some interesting lyrics, to say the least. :wink:

[fallenONE]

Well at least she is making songs in English.....plus her second language is English!

That's some bright news :wink:

So she can understand us.....i think

[Le Fidèle]

well, i didnt want to waste space posting a whole new topic but, in this song she mentions "My uncle is overstressed, fumbling crawling for somthing..........." are these lyrics based on Alizee's life of Mylen farmer's. cause i dont remember reading anything about her uncle haveing a big impact in her life

[FiEsTa]

Yeah Snatchers explanation was excellent. With I'm fed up (J'en ai marre) She wants to give the people the message not loosing the soulfulness and to enjoy life. On the other way she says she is fed up with the people who don't know how to enjoy their life. That's what she said on several interviews. And well, I think we all know what Lili really thinks about the Paparazzis now. She comes out smiling all the time, but this is her real thinking about the Paparazzis...

She doesn't like them :P Strange she never said something on this on any interviews

[Le Fidèle]

^lol forgot i asked that.

i love this song, if it werent for the alizee, i think i would have had a seizure due to all of the lights in the JEAM performance. i'm not sure what performance it was, it was the one with the color changing frames in the backround.

what does that mean when she said "extremists with 2 bullets"
any one have an answer to my previouse question?

[Snatcher42]

what does that mean when she said "extremists with 2 bullets"
Most agree it's about the Corsican independence fighters. "...with two bullets who see life all in black ", or can be translated as "all or nothing", though the black is a reference to the gear they always wear. More about that here:
http://www.alizee-forum.com/ptopic,456050,.html#456050
There's also a pun in the "two bullets" part of the line, as it could also be translated as "two balls."

[Le Fidèle]

^oh, thanks snatcher
:shock: i didnt know corisca was a violent place. :shock:

did the man with the nice suit get exicuted, or was he held for randsom money, wha wha. please, more details. :shock:

[dantexaiver]

[Le Fidèle]

true, but theres too many of them to prosecute! :wink:

[dantexaiver]

[Quentin]

yeah, my roommate went to a wedding a while ago in texas... and low and behold, he met and became friends with Rachel Leigh Cook.

They chated about alot of things for the week they were there.... but I am sure that if they stayed in communication, they would be good friends. He didn't even know who she was until she told him.. hahahhaa
