Biography

French electronic pop band from Versailles (Yvelines, West suburb of Paris) formed in 1997. Thomas Croquet (aka [a=Thomas Mars], vocals), Frederic Moulin (aka [a=Deck D'Arcy], bass), and Christian Mazzalai (guitars) were the original trio who would become known as Phoenix. Mazzalai's older brother Laurent Mazzalai (aka [a550175] aka Branco) joined the trio when his band broke up in 1995 (see [a=Darlin']), and two years later they called themselves Phoenix. At this point they were still making rock music without the synth-rock sounds, and released a single on their own label [l=Ghettoblaster]. Shortly there-after, they were signed to the Paris-based [l=Source]. While there, they got aquainted with label-mates [a=AIR], and were the backing band for a number of TV appearances. From this connection, Phoenix created their first French house track in 1999, "Heatwave." This was the precursor to their debut album, "United". From this, they appeared on a number of compilations, but went on a creative hiatus until 2004.

LYRICS

Where would you go ?
Not long ago
I've been thinking out loud
Why so suddenly ?
Don't you know ?
Don't do it
What you do
Oh What you do to me

Forever is a long long time
When you've lost your way
Trying to follow your ideal
Oh sorry but your so called life
It is such a waste

Wear your real eyes
No you don't realize
What you say yes to
But you say yes too

Where would you go
Where would you go
With a lasso ?
Could you run into
Could you run into
Could you go and run into me ?

Where would you go
Where would you go
Tied up in a lasso ?
Could you run into
Could you run into
Could you go and run into me ?

So lonely so pretty such a lack of diplomacy
You can't get out
Don't you know don't do it
what you do well you should do to me
Far-out, so far-out
Such a fall-out
Not only that you're lonely
Don't matter if you're not so well
No you're not so well

Tomorrow is a long long time
When you've lost your way
Tomorrow is a long long time
When you've lost your way
