Le Bien Qui Fait Mal

[DarkHououmon]

Here's an mv I recently completed about Shen, the villain of Kung Fu Panda 2. The video is supposed to reflect on Shen's obsessions.

*goes into fangirl mode* Wow, I don't think I ever knew you were Counterinsurgery!! Awesome!! I remember watching your early LBT videos and loving them so much as to label them my all time LBT faves on youtube! Your sharpteeth mv's for Haunted and Lies are my top favorites! In fact, you're the one who introduced the song Lies to me!

Wow!!! I just can't get over it!! *spazzes*

And this newest video, amazing! Pure Amazing! I never heard the song before, but I liked it already. Do you know what language it's in? As always, I love your use of special effects and how they synch so well with the music.

I'd say you did an excellent job, but I don't think that's adequent enough praise. Your videos are beyond the Awesome Scale, and I look forward to seeing more from you!

Thank you!


And the song is in french. I chose it because the translated lyrics reminded me of Shen and his obsessive ways in the movie. Here's one of the translated copies I found of the song:



Now where does this strange feeliing
Come from
That fascinates me
Just as much as it disturbes me
I shiver stabbed by the beauty
It's like a knife in my soul
The wound going right through my heart
And I feel joy in the pain
I intoxicate myself with this poison
Until it makes me loose my mind

It's the good that causes pain
When you love
Completely normal
Your hate
Enjoy
It's so good to suffer
Surrender to the spell
Let tears flow

It's the good that causes pain
Causes pain
When you love
Completely ordinary
It's the good that causes pain
Your pain
The true pleasures
Are achieved only through torture
Take down your weapons
Let the tears flow

I can feel
A violent urge
I feel like
I'm sliding towards the ground
If I don't find out
Where this plague is coming from
I adore
Having it under my skin
Bewitched by mad ideas
Suddenly
All my cravings take off
The desire becomes my prison
Until I loose my mind

I don't think it's 100% exact; not sure if some verses are repeated enough or not.
