[2011-12-TBA] Tahiti Boy & Palmtree Family X-Mas Song feat. Alizée

[Taxi Driver Aaron]

MOD EDIT: Alizée has confirmed via her Facebook that she will be participating in this year's Tahiti Boy and the Palmtree Family Christmas Song.

Recently there has been a post on the Facebook Wall of Tahiti Boy & The Palmtree Family that suggests a 2011 Christmas Song is in the works. Whether or not it will have Alizée in it has yet to be confirmed...

Here is a taste of what they did a few years back:

Whether or not the next one has Alizée in it, I hope they will make it sound more jolly... this one makes me feel like I'm at a funeral. No offense... just making an honest observation.

"Xmas song 2011 is officially written. Recording the music tomorrow."

-Tahiti Boy, facebook

[User22]

This almost marks the 1-year anniversary of her new hairstyle :D

And man her voice is AMAZING in It's XMAS Tonight!

[MasterSprtn117]

I wish she'd do some covers of the "generic" Christmas songs. (I don't quite mean Frosty the Snowman..)

[User22]

She should do "Baby its cold outside" with Alain Chamfort or something...

[Jake04]

Alizee posted the link on her fb page. I guess this confirms her participation again this year.
PS: Tahiti Boys were asking for suggestions. May be Lefty, C-4 and our other good friends here could help them. :2_thumbs:

[Taxi Driver Aaron]

She should do "Baby its cold outside" with Alain Chamfort or something...

That's like saying she should do another duet with Javi :thumbdown:

She should do single songs like a remake of Mariah "All I want for Christmas" and "Mary Did You Know?" ... :)

[WhiteFeather]

That's like saying she should do another duet with Javi :thumbsdown:

:agree:

She should do single songs like a remake of Mariah "All I want for Christmas" and "Mary Did You Know?" ... :)

Little Drummer Boy, anyone? Just imagine her singing "pa rum pum pum pum"...

Note: I promised myself I would never use this particular emoticon, but cannot think of another way to express this.

:wub:

I would be in love ....

[User22]

I would be in love ....

I would keel over into deaththen be re-incarnated as Alizée's new puppy for Xmas :))

[Taxi Driver Aaron]

Why her puppy and not Jeremy?!

[Taxi Driver Aaron]

I apologize in advance because I am browsing the forums from my phone.

My computer is waiting for parts I purchased on ebay and got screwed on... so now I must wait longer. anyway....

I can't see everything from my phone so I apologize if it is posted or obvious because I can't see embedded attachments... but did this new xmas song get released yet? what's the scoop?

[Jake04]

They're still working on the video. I read somewhere that it'll be released either next week or the week after that.

[DrSmith]

Tahiti Boy wrote on Facebook yesterday that it will be released next week.

[Merci Alizée]

How the hell did I miss out on this one?! :yikes:

I guess you were too busy with your veterinary school. :D
PS: There's a new one coming may be next week, just to let you know.

Hahaa, I'm not in veterinary school yet! One more year of undergrad left. :)

But another Christmas song next week?! AWESOME SAUCE! I hope Alizée is more prominently featured. :D

I don't see Alizee's name on this! :pissed: I hope she gets a long line just like last year's.

[Finnishguy]

From Tahiti Boy & the Palmtree Family's Twitter..

"Xmas song = out sometimes this week. Ready?"


Edit:

And Alizée retweeted it now :)

Heard it... I liked Alizée a lot... that's about it. but I really appreciate the effort they put into the song.

[Jake04]

I think she has a longer line this time. We got our x-mas presents early! :beer:

[DrSmith]

Hmm. Not a lot of comments here yet. :secret:

Ouais. :beer: But Loane didn't get a solo this year, so I'm half disappointed. :c

[lefty12357]

I liked Alizée's voice in this recording. It shows that particular tonal quality of hers that I like and is distinctly "Alizée".

These Christmas songs are not really designed to be great, unforgettable hits. They are simply to have some fun and celebrate the holiday season. And as a gift to the fans, I think they accomplished that. :)

[Jake04]

I agree. And remember, they're not even selling this just like the previous ones. It is indeed a gift from them for all us fans.

[Fish]

I like it, its fun. I just wish the download site wasn't so awful so I could actually download it.
Plus, Oxmo sighting!

[Bigdan]

Not as magic as the previous years... but good anyway.
And offering the Alizee special studio voice !!
:2_thumbs:

[Uroboros]

Very nice song! Alizée's voice was perfect! :)
By the way, who is that guy disguised as santa at 3:28? :13:

[Future Raptor Ace]

I spy a Jeremy ... at least I think thats him :secret:
The song was good, I liked it. I just think the random rap verses in the middle did not fit with the rest of the song.

Yeah, I also thought it was him! :o
But I wasn't sure ^^
Nice hat he is wearing! :))

[ferb96]

Umm ... anyone knows the name of those rap guys ?? I wanna try some french rap too :dance: There r names in the description but too many.

[Taxi Driver Aaron]

I am wondering who they are too... they remind me of the person that rapped on "Décollage" ...

[Jake04]

Just try the 'process of elimination." Google-image the guys/group's names. It might take a little time - unless Bigdan or some other guys from France can help us out. BTW, that's how I did it when I tried to figure out the name of a singer in last year's x-mas song.

[DrSmith]

Oxmo was the guy in Décollage, and he's also in this song as Fish pointed out.

[Taxi Driver Aaron]

Oh... well then that explains that! :D

[Fish]

Oui. (At least on the Youtube video) there is a credit list of everyone that performed (and helped produce?) on this song:

Micky Green, Hugh Coltman, Ornette, Julien Ribot, Jérôme Tacteel Echenoz, Hollysiz, François & the Atlas Mountains, Alex Maillard, Jérôme Laperruque, Alizée, Mina Tindle, Flairs, Jessie Fancy, Mariama, Loane, Emilie Demouzon, Jamaica, Juliette Paquereau, Tahiti Boy, Chat, Oxmo Puccino, Mike Ladd, Naive New Beaters, Teki Latex, The Rodeo, Joseph D'Anvers, Château Marmont, Para One, La Fiancée, Romain Rock, Raphaël Ankierman, Fred Pallem, Pedro Winter, Thomas Kpade, Didier Perrin, David Aknin, 3rd side studio, Microbe Studio, Paul Mesguich, Anne Lebrequer, Marlon Bee, Djouf, Magnetica Studio

Alizee vets Oxmo Puccino and Chateau Marmont were both involved :)

I'm assuming these are in order of appearance, since I believe the rapper after Oxmo is Mike Ladd, an MC from Boston. The group with the Jeremy look-alike are the Naive New Beaters (almost strike me as a French LMFAO).

[Uroboros]

I like the voice of that woman who sings right before Alizée, who is she?

[Chuck]

I'd love to find that out, too. Most of these ladies have amazing voices!

But no time to research it myself at th moment, finishing up a xmas present project tonight

So i just wanted to stop in and say "Wow, that's another really great song! Thanks Tahiti Boy and Palmtree People!"

And Happy Holidays to all the little AAmer's in here, if i don't check back in the next week or so! Love you all. Especially the "trolls" we got with us. They make this place extra special.

:clown:


Say, on that note, when I was looking for the new xmas song, i ran across this on yt - and it was pretty cool. Anybody else watched this?
