In Japan it’s traditional for foreigners to greet natives with a gift representing their homeland and visa versa. So when I went to Tokyo to promote “TRANS//LATION” in March this year I was presented with this strange looking package on behalf of the record label… The video is what happened when I opened it.

Yelle was born on January 17th 1983 in Saint-Brieuc, Britney. Yelle grew up with music in her life because she was the daughter of a famous musician.

She became famous on MySpace when she posted a video of a song called “Short Dick Cuizi” criticizing Cuizinier, a member of the hip hop group TTC. Yelle wrote and sang the song. The people loved the song, 2000 people watched it in two days. It made people laugh. It was very catchy. It received 2000 views in two days.

Yelle, de son vrai nom Julie Budet, est une chanteuse très populaire en France.
"Yelle" est l’acronyme féminisé de l’expression anglaise “You Enjoy Life” (Tu aimes la vie).
Chanteuse pop, ses chansons ont été diffusées sur les télés du monde entier ainsi que dans certains magasins de vêtements telles que Gap ou H&M.
Yelle est née le 17 janvier 1983 à Saint-Brieuc dans les Côtes-d’Armor(Bretagne).
Elle a grandi entourée de musique, son père étant musicien.
Dans sa jeunesse, elle a joué du piano, pris des cours de comédie et a chanté dans différents groupes.
Mais au final, ce rôle de chanteuse dans un groupe n’a pas été un succès.
Elle s’est fait connaître sur MySpace en postant une vidéo intitulée “Short Dick Cuizi” dans laquelle elle critique "Cuizinier", un des membres du groupe TTC.
C’est elle-même qui a écrit et interprété cette chanson.
Les gens ont commencé à aimer la chanson, qui a été vu par plus de 2000 personnes en seulement deux jours. La musique était entrainante, les paroles les faisaient rire.
Après avoir posté cette vidéo, Yelle a signé avec la maison de disque EMI, qui l’a considérée comme une bonne chanteuse.
Elle commence à se produire sur scène dès 2005.
Elle sort son premier CD "Pop-Up" le 3 septembre 2007.
La critique l’a trouvé assez énergique et entraînant.
Sa chanson la plus connue s’appelle "Je veux te voir" et la version finale de "Short Dick Cuizi".
Je suis content(e) (with a "e" if you are a girl) qu’elle ait de si nombreux fans. Sa musique est à la fois originale et créative.

Hi,

I think that you forgot to write some sentences in english because there are sentences in french that I don’t find in your english text. So I could’nt translate them.
Hope it help you
"Kookaburra" nearly two decades ago, filed the suit after hearing a snippet of "Down Under" played on an Australian quiz show last year. And now, after this week’s ruling, Larrikin stands to collect a substantial amount of royalties (somewhere between 40 and 60 percent) from Men At Work, "Down Under" songwriters Colin Hay and Ron Strykert, and record labels Sony BMG and EMI. http://new.music.yahoo.com/blogs/stopthepresses/105260/men-at-work-vs-the-man-80s-band-charged-with-plagiarism/
"It’s a big win for the underdog," Larrikin’s lawyer Adam Simpson told Australian reporters–although, sadly, Marion Sinclair will not be seeing any of that money (she passed away long ago), and neither will any of her heirs, since the song’s rights were sold to Larrikin in 1990 after Sinclair’s death.
I bet the judge "just smiled and gave Men At Work a vegemite sandwhich?"
That’s just me using some of their lyrics (Which is really not their lyrics) in a pun sort of way. ( ^ _ ^ )
That song is soo old nobody cares.
How much money is made in Gods name(billion dollars)
Matthew 21-
12. And Jesus entered the temple and drove out all those who were buying and selling in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who were selling doves.
13. And He *said to them, "It is written, `MY HOUSE SHALL BE CALLED A HOUSE OF PRAYER’; but you are making it a ROBBERS’ DEN."
Bands and labels owned by Time Warner and EMI and others.

do not let the cat out of the bag ….been makin money off of dumb christains every day they pay for me to tell them what they want to hear ..is a money makin rackette u know…Shhhhhhhhhh…
And I have to cite one example that’s always bothered me. Why is Radiohead considered an Indie band? For roughly 13 years they were signed to Capitol/Parlophone…both of which are owned by EMI. What about them is "Indie"?
I’m a fan, I enjoy their music, but there’s tons of users here who are into then more than I am. With all that being said, why is it that so many people here consider them an Indie band? What was it that made you think they were Indie? I think it’s time we iron out for everyone what Indie or….Independent (from a major label) really means.
MQ: Favorite INDIE band??
I have no problem with saying….
"I like Indie music"
It’s a bit vague, but at least I get the point.
I do have a problem with taking major label acts and calling them Indie. It’s just ridiculous. And as a fan of a particular group, how do you not know what label they’re on?
Marc, yes only recently have they become "indie" and quite frankly, one independent release after a career of major label releases hardly qualifies you as an Indie band.
i’ve never heard of Radiohead as an indie band… and I’ve always heard of bands on independant labels labeled as an indie band… i.e. Arcade Fire, indie… Ash, indie… Belle & Sebastian, indie.. R.E.M. – until they signed with Warner were indie [Murmur, Reckoning, Fables & Document]… The White Stripes, indie…
Also, lots of well known bands start out "indie" until they get offered a contract by a big record label.. such as R.E.M. or Green Day or even Nirvana.
Unfortunately, the term indie, is now used to refer to non-mainstream artists such as Radiohead… However before they released Kid A… no one called them indie.
Only recently is Radiohead correctly "indie". In Rainbows is their only indie album… they are no longer with with EMI. The album was released through tbd records… which is actually independant.

I personally consider their music to have that independent mentality thanks to the feel of DIY and the experimentation of Kid A and
Amnesiac. But when you look at the labels that they have been signed to, it gets complicated.
From 1992-2005 they were signed to Parlophone and Capitol records, both of which are parented by EMI (one of the mainstream "big four", which is the exact opposite of indie.) Then they dropped EMI as their label and released In Rainbows independently on the internet and then under XL Recordings (an indie label) they released it in a physical copy. However, the album was also connected/released by TBD (previously Side One) which is parented by ATO (which is parented by RCA, which is owned by Sony BMG).
Therefore, Radiohead started out releasing under major labels, released indie a bit, but still had connections with a "big four" label.
With all of this considered, is Radiohead an indie band in your opinion? They’ve been on an independant label, but they’ve also been signed to EMI and Sony BMG.
Thanks. =]
no matter what label they are signed to, i personally don’t think radiohead can be put into the ‘indie’ catagory – or any.
they are so different from any other band, and so original. i wouldn’t be able to catagorise them if i tried. and i prefer it that way.
