Rêver
"Rêver" (English: "Dreaming") is a 1995 song recorded by French singer-songwriter Mylène Farmer. It was the fifth single from her fourth album '' Anamorphosée'' and was released on 16 November 1996. In spite of moderate sales and chart performances, the song remains one of the most known by the general public because of the subjects it deals with, namely the Holocaust and a call for tolerance. Background, writing and release Initially, only four singles from the studio album '' Anamorphosée'' were scheduled. However, because of the fall of Farmer during a concert in Lyon on 15 June 1996, the song "Rêver" was chosen as the fifth single to make the fans wait, since the release of the live album would be deferred. The single was released only as CD, and there was no vinyl. On the single cover, Farmer is kneeling, completely naked while showing modesty, which seems to be paradoxal. Chuberre, 2009, p. 147. The digipack version of the CD maxi contains a new remix of " XXL". The s ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Anamorphosée
''Anamorphosée'' is the fourth studio album by Mylène Farmer, released on 17 October 1995. Led by the number-one single " XXL", the album was something of a departure from her previous work. Although it received mixed reviews from critics, the album was very successful, peaking at no.1 and staying on the French album chart for almost two years. Background and writing The movie ''Giorgino'', produced by Laurent Boutonnat and in which Mylène Farmer starred, was both a critical and financial failure. Released on 5 October 1994, it was seen by barely 25,000 spectators in the first week and was the first setback in Farmer's career. As a result, the musical duo separated on bad terms, Boutonnat making Farmer responsible for this failure. The singer decided to go to Los Angeles, California, where she fell into anonymity and changed hairstyle (she became blond with long hair). There she composed a new album, drawing inspiration from a Sogyal Rinpoche's book, ''Le Livre tibétain de l ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
