MOI JE VEUX…

Moi je veux… (Me, I want…) is a song # 2 from Mylène Farmer’s eighth studio album, Bleu Noir released 6 December 2010.

The lyrics to Moi je veux…were written by Mylène Farmer. It’s a familiar theme of longing for love. And who is not familiar with that? All we need is love, no?

Music composed by Moby.

Me I want (like all Moby songs on the Bleu Noir album) was made from a model sent by Moby to Mylène. All the instruments on the model are played by Moby himself.

Bleu Noir is Mylène Farmer’s first album in which Laurent Boutonnat does not participate.

The recording of the album ended on September 10, 2010 before the final mixing began by Jérôme Devoise (as for the two previous studio albums) at the studio Guillaume Tell.

Moby (with whom Mylène had sung as a duet, first for the single Slipping away (Crier la vie) in 2006 then on Looking for my name in the album Point de Suture in 2008.

Moby composed the music for six songs from the album: Moi je veux, Bleu Noir, N’aie plus d’amertume, Toi l’amour, M’effondre and Inseparables.

“Musical reunion … One day, Moby sent me a CD with nearly seventeen model tracks of his songs and said:” Take what you want if you want it. “And, j ‘admit that I did not have to pray and, I chose six. And, it is someone who, also has this common generosity with RedOne besides, who said to me: “Do whatever you want with the songs, if you want to change even the melodies, the production” and, in the end I changed the production little because I wanted to preserve the soul of these songs. There is something about it. ‘immediate at Moby I find that is both nostalgic and at the same time dynamic. And, I wanted to preserve what I had discovered through these models and then, afterwards, I brought my paw.” (Mylène Farmer – Radio FG – 12/06/2012

All instruments are played by Moby on the models. Models which were then reworked with new musicians during the recording of these titles by Mylène at the Guillaume Tell studio in Paris: David Levita for the guitars, Jonathan Noyce for the basses and even the faithful Yvan Cassar (details in the credits of album)

The title of Moby’s mockup for this song was: “On my side”. Director: Moby & Mylène Farmer. Programming: Eric Chevalier

Although this specific song was not included into any live performances, Timeless Tour was definitely included many Blue Noir songs. For that reasons I though to include this rare video of the Timeless Tour in Russia and its snap shots (throughout this page) – Enjoy!

lyrics with translation

Moi je veux c'est aimer
Moi je veux c'est aider
Moi je veux être aimée
Moi je veux c'est t'aimer
Moi je veux c'est t'aider
Moi je veux être adorée

Tu reviens toujours
Mélancolie
Comme un défi
Silence de dieu
Mais que le soir est triste
Pour l'indécis

Moi je veux c'est aimer
Moi je veux c'est aider
Moi je veux être aimée
Moi je veux c'est t'aimer
Moi je veux c'est t'aider
Moi je veux être adorée

Quand saigne mon cloître
Cruel c'est que je sombre
Épaisse est l'ombre
Oh ! Paradis noué
L'or des étoiles est pâle
Hivernal

Aimer aimer
Aime-moi
Aimer aimer
Aime-moi

Moi je veux c'est aimer
Moi je veux c'est aider
Moi je veux être aimée
Moi je veux c'est t'aimer
Moi je veux c'est t'aider
Moi je veux être adorée

Me, I want is to love
Me, I want to help
Me, I want to be loved
Me, I want is to love you
Me, I want to help you
Me, I want to be adored

You always come back
Melancholy
Like a challenge
Silence of god
But how sad the evening is
For the undecided

Me, I want is to love
Me, I want to help
Me, I want to be loved
Me, I want to love you
vI want to help you
vI want to be adored

When my cloister bleeds
Cruel is that I sink
Thick is the shadow
Oh! Knotted paradise
The gold of the stars is pale
Winter

To love to love
Love me
Love to love
Love me

Me, I want is to love
Me, I want to help
Me, I want to be loved
Me, I want to love you
Me, I want to help you
Me, I want to be adored
