   Hi all,
   
   Among a whole bunch of great song I must bring the attention to Je N'Peux Pas Te Plaire.
   What a great, beautiful song : Je N'Peux Pas Te Plaire. Especially her voice, her knowledge of the French and the choice of instruments is fantastic. Must become a hit in at least FRANCE. I can't wait until JB comes, with her band I hope, to EUROPE. I made so many people familiar with her music that a big touringbus on our way to the concert will not be enough.
   
   I hope, I hope. JB please come to the Benelux or Germany !!!

   It's about two guys who go on vacation one weekend, and their employer, Bernie, gets killed, so the two guys have to carry Bernie's corpse around and pretend he's still alive. Hilarity ensues.
   
   It's also possible that my French is rusty.

   Basically, luckily the french verbs for "to please" "to silence" and "to lose" all rhyme. (plaire, taire, perdre) How tragic is that! So it's basically saying "no matter what I do, I can't please you without silencing, losing myself."
   Came to me in a hotel in Paris. (It's not about me) I think Bernie and the two guys were in the next room over. And your french is fine.

   J'ai change mes couleurs
   J'ai change mon avis
   J'ai cache tous mes pleurs de mes meilleures amies
   Mais je n'peux pas te plaire
   
   Je prie chaque matin
   A celui qui me garde
   Avec mes voeux dans les mains
   Mais je les envoies trop tard
   Et je n'peux pas te plaire
   
   Je n'peux pas te plaire
   Je n'veux plus me taire
   Mais si je reste ici
   J'ai bien compris
   Je n'peux plus te plaire, sans me perdre aussi
   
   Alors, au prochain qui suit
   C'est deja chuchote
   Entre etoiles et la nuit
   Rien n'est delaisse
   Et je n'peux pas te plaire
   
   Je n'peux pas te plaire
   Je n'veux plus me taire
   Mais si je reste ici
   J'ai bien compris
   Je n'peux plus te plaire, sans me perdre aussi
   
   Tu m'as beaucoup enseigne
   J'ai appris notre ballet
   Tous les pas de toi et moi
   C'est drole mais me voila
   Je n'aime plus danser
   
   Je n'peux pas te plaire
   Je n'veux plus me taire
   Mais si je reste ici
   J'ai bien compris
   Je n'peux pas te plaire, sans me perdre
   Je n'peux pas te plaire
   Je n'veux plus me taire
   Mais si je reste ici
   J'ai bien compris
   Je n'peux plus te plaire, sans me perdre aussi

   Here's a more literal translation:
   
   I changed my colors
   I changed my opinion
   I hid all my tears from my best friends
   But I can't please you
   
   I pray every morning
   to the One who keeps me
   with my requests in my hands
   but I send them too late
   And I can't please you
   
   I can't please you
   I don't want to be quiet anymore
   but if I stay here
   I understand
   I can't please you, without losing myself
   
   so, bring along the next one
   it's already being whispered
   between the stars and the night
   nothing is neglected
   and I can't please you
   
   I can't please you
   I don't want to be quiet anymore
   but if I stay here
   I understand
   I can't please you, without losing myself
   
   You taught me well
   I learned our dance
   All our steps
   Funny, but here I am
   I no longer like to dance
   
   I can't please you
   I don't want to be quiet anymore
   but if I stay here
   I understand
   I can't please you, without losing myself
   
   I can't please you
   I don't want to be quiet anymore
   but if I stay here
   I understand
   I can't please you, without losing myself
