Yeah, Mylène does these things. At first you go, "Cool, what a coincidence", and then you wonder if it really is coincidence after all. Mylène is a master at the double-entendre throughout her songs. For someone just trying to master the lyrics (like myself), double meanings can get lost.

Remember this line in Moi Lolita? "Mi-coton, mi-laine...". Now, why did Mylène choose "mi-laine"? Phonetically, "mi-laine" is ennunciated almost the same as "Mylène". Coincidence?

By the way, this is why I dig down into the culture. There is an entirely different level of appreciate for these songs that require an understanding beyond the simple words. I want to achieve that appreciation.
