Sketch translation:

song part:

Isabelle a les yeux bleus x3 Bleus les yeux Isabelle a

Isabelle has blue eyes x3 Eyes Blue Isabelle has ♀

Soudain quand elle est partie J'ai vu qu'elle n'était plus là Et comme elle n'était plus là J'me suis dit elle est partie

Suddenly, when she left I saw that she wasn't there anymore And since she wasn't there anymore I thought to myself, she's gone

Dans la nuit noire Dans la nuit noire et obscure Obscure et sombre Isabelle s'est cognée contre les murs Les murs

In the pitch-black night In the pitch-black and obscure night Obscure and gloomy Isabelle bumped into the walls The walls

interview:

Ben, heuu, s'tu veux, on est tous des potes, au bahut, quoi, on s'est rencontré, et puis heuu, s'tu veux, on a surtout pris sur les cours de math, quoi. Mais, s'tu veux, c'est au moment ou on est arivé au niveau Sup de Co, heuu, ben, on s'est dit on va pt'être passer professionnels, quoi.

Note: "s'tu veux", literally "If you want", is a contraction of "si tu veux", and while it is used in spoken French, when used, in this sketch, with a dumb voice and a stupid look on Bernard Campan's face, "s'tu veux" becomes very funny.

Well, uh, yu'know, we're all chums, we met at high school, yu'know, and then, uh, yu'know, we mostly took from math classes But, yu'know, it was when we got to the business school level, uh, well, we thought maybe we'd go professional, yu'know.

song part:

Isabelle a les yeux bleus x3 Bleus les yeux Isabelle a Isa bleu belle a les yeux

interview:

C'est à dire que la, heuu, y'a, heuu, heuu, Sylvain, lui, heuu, il est plutot aux, heuu, aux, aux percussions (percus). Arnaud, bon, ben c'est plutot le, les voix, les chorus, tout ça; puis moi ch'ui, heuu… aux, heuu… (Bernard Campan: "aux synthés!") C'est aux synthés, ouais!… t'es sur? (ouais!) Ouais, c'est ça, ouais! Enfin, le truc qu'on… (Bernard Campan: "Monstrueux!") Avec des trucs noirs et blancs! (Pascal Légitimus: "C'est d'enfer!")

Note: instead of black and white "keys" 🎹 ("touches" in French) , Didier Bourdon says : des "trucs" noirs et blancs (black and white "stuff") lol

That is to say, there, uh, there's, uh, uh, Sylvain, he, uh, he's more on, uh, on, on percussions (Bernard Campan: "Percus, on percus") (Pascal Légitimus: "On percus, yeah!). Arnaud, well, he's more on the, the vocals, the choruses, all that, and me, uh… on, uh… (Bernard Campan: "on synths!") It's on synths, yeah!… are you sure? (yeah!) Yeah, that's it, yeah! Anyway, the thing we… (Bernard Campan: "Monstrous!") With black and white stuff! (Pascal Légitimus: "It's gnarly!")

song part:

In the pitch-black night In the pitch-black and obscure night Obscure and gloomy...

interview:

Pascal Légitimus: Ben disons que, on privilégie surtout les paroles, heuu… (Didier Bourdon: "Ouais, ouais!") Mais aussi le texte! (Bernard Campan: Oauis! - Didier Bourdon: "ouais, aussi!") C'est vachement important, tu vois! Bernard Campan: heuu, j'veux dire c'est monstrueux au niveau de l'inspiration, j'veux dire, c'est large, dûment monstrueux, tu vois, ça va autant de Heidegger à William Faulkner, en passant par, heuu… (Didier Bourdon: "La Lorraine")

Pascal Légitimus: Well, let's just say we're focusing mainly on the lyrics, uh… (Didier Bourdon: "Yeah, yeah!") But also the text! (Bernard Campan: Yeah! - Didier Bourdon: "Yeah, too!") It's really important, you see! Bernard Campan: Uh, I mean, it's monstrous in terms of inspiration, I mean, it's huge, duly monstrous, you know, it goes from Heidegger to William Faulkner, by way of, uh… (Didier Bourdon: "La Lorraine") (They all guffaws)

Lorraine is a historical area of Eastern France that today falls within the administrative region of Grand Est. wikipedia.org

Quiche Lorraine is a savoury French tart with a filling of cream, eggs, and bacon, in an open pastry case. It was little known outside the French region of Lorraine until the mid-20th century. As its popularity spread, nationally and internationally, the addition of cheese became commonplace, although it has been criticised as inauthentic. It may be served hot, warm or cold. wikipedia.org

song part:

Isabelle a les yeux bleus x3

Isabelle has blue eyes x3

interview:

Pascal: Par exemple, pour la chanson titre "Isabelle a les yeux bleus", heuu, moi, j'ai pensé au prénom Isabelle, tu vois (Benard et Didier: Ouais!), heuu, Ludo, heuu, les yeux (Didier Bourdon "Ludo": "J'ai pensé aux yeux, c'est complètement monstrueux, quoi!" - Pascal Légitimus: "tu vois?!"), ouais, et Sylvain, le côté, heuu (Bernard Campan: "Bleu, moi, plutôt, okay?") Bleu, tu vois? (Bernard: "Jaime, heuu, le bleu, tu vois? - Pascal légitimus: Isabelle, tu peux…) Didier Bourdon: "Ouais, c'est un p'tit peu comme Le Grand Bleu, quoi!"

Pascal: For example, for the title track "Isabelle Has Blue Eyes," um, I thought of the name Isabelle, you see (Bernard and Didier: Yeah!), um, Ludo, um, the eyes (Didier Bourdon "Ludo": "I thought of the eyes, it's totally monstrous, you know!" - Pascal Légitimus: "You see?!"), yeah, and Sylvain, the side, um (Bernard Campan: "Me, rather Blue, okay?") Blue, you see? (Bernard: "I like, um, blue, you see? - Pascal Légitimus: Isabelle, you can...) Didier Bourdon: "Yeah, it's a little bit like The Big Blue, you know!" (They all guffaws again)

The Big Blue (released in some countries under the French title Le Grand Bleu) is a 1988 drama film co-written and directed by Luc Besson.  wikipedia.org

interview:

Ça c'est monstrueusement important, c'est d'être perçu en tant qu' tel, pas d'être, heuu, au top 50 à tout prix, tu vois? (Pascal: "Ouais, s'en fout!") Ouais, enfin, je sais qu'on y est, mais bon, c'est pas l'but recherché, tu vois?

That's monstrously important, being perceived as such, not being, uh, in the top 50 at all costs, you know? (Pascal: "Yeah, who cares!") Yeah, well, I know we're there, but still, that's not the goal, you know? (They chuckle)

song part:

Isabelle s'est cognée contre les murs Les murs, Les murs

Ah ben, la prochaine chanson c'est (chuckle), ça n'a rien à voir, enfin, c'est, heuu, on s'est complètement balancé dans un autre TRIP ! (Pascal: "C'est autre chose, heuu…" - Bernard: "ah, ouais, heuu…Complete'!") Enfin, completement, heuu… (Bernard: "Monstrueux! ... Ouais! ) Ouais, c'est ça, ouais! (Pascal: "Ouais!") Non, ça n'a rien à voir, c'est un autre son, c'est un autre style, c'est, heuu…Le titre, c'est, heuu, Gwendoline a les yeux vert….

Ah well, the next song is (Chuckle), it's completely different, well, it's, uh, we've totally gone off on another TRIP! (Pascal: "It's something else, uh..." - Bernard: "Ah, yeah, uh...Complete!") Well, completely, uh... (Bernard: "Monstrous! ... Yeah!) Yeah, that's it, yeah! (Pascal: "Yeah!") No, it's completely different, it's a different sound, it's a different style, it's, uh...The title is, uh, Gwendoline Has Green Eyes....

Yaourt (Yoghurt)(French Slang): A way of expressing oneself and, in particular, of singing which seeks to imitate a foreign language, most often English, through its sounds.

Translated from: dictionnaire-academie.fr

🐄🥄

Note by Sicktracks: In this sketch, Didier Bourdon is mostly and purposely using what the French musicians call "Yaourt". When French musicians want to sound like an Anglophone but can't speak English, they just use "Yaourt", which is totally and spontaneously imaginary and incomprehensible.

The entire Hip Hop Graffiti team traveled to meet Tommy at his home in the suburbs of Westminster:

An exclusive Hip Hop Graffiti interview!

What do you think about French public, Tommy?

Ils sont vraiment très polis… Je dirais même très courtois…

They are very polite indeed... I would even say very courteous...

Tommy, when do you plan to release your next album, "Je te broierai le sexe à coup de santiag" (I'll crush your penis with a cowboy boot)?

Mother's Day is coming up soon, we need to think about gifts... And then there's also my little sister's First Communion...

First Communion is a ceremony in some Christian traditions during which a person of the church first receives the Eucharist. wikipedia.org

What about women?

Oh… um !!… er, well !!…….

I've got a girlfriend… but,

my parents don't know yet... so shh!

So, for Hip Hop Graffiti and for all your French fans, Tommy, what does France mean to you? A few words about France, some words.
