WONGIE VIDEO OF THE WEEK: yelle - ici & maintenant (here and now)

yelle - ici & maintenant (here and now)
what a wonderful new video by paul b. cummings & producer jean-francois perrier! showing off a seemingly banal day in the life of yelle (aka julie budet), with her 'shadow' played by comedian nathan barnatt in tow. whats funny and visually disruptive (as the shadow flails everywhere) turns glorious when the two find themselves sympatico during the day. you gotta watch this simple and lovely new gem from our favorite quirky french indie pop star!

yelle - a cause des garcons (tepr tektonik remix) [link 2]
[rising up the internet buzz rounds is the cute electro french singer yelle. though she's already racked up a #1 single back home in france, it looks like hipsters in the UK and US are getting on the bandwagon, embracing her quirky lolita dance sounds. my parisian buddy arnault tipped me on her (and the tektonik dance movement) in jan, but i'm finally 'getting' it. btw, i LOVE this remix version!]

UPDATE 3/18:

yelle - je veux te voir [link 2]
[more fabulousness from the yelle camp! this song was her 1st release way back in 2006, but damn it sounds good! you can call me a teenage girl cause i love this track so much! go ahead...]
