Product Information

The boy is freed from the tree and the girls hose him with water and begin performing an Irish reel before lying back down in the field where they began. Both Leiber and Stoller claimed the lyrics to be their Mona Lisa, even surpassing their iconic Stand By Me but they fought intensely with the band during initial recordings when the band ad-libbed “I fight like me da as well”. The song features many cheeky double entendres; the band commented in 2013 that "it went over children's heads, but the parents got the innuendos. This company procures the screams (and subsequently laughter) of children to create energy for an entire city.

In a perfect world, this dancey helping of youth-oriented pop would have no problem conquering the States with its giddy melody and squeaky-clean teenage vocals, but sadly, top 40 has again entered one of those periods during which it shuns most any uptempo track that might be considered plain and simple fun. The chorus was then recorded in Vietnam, but the band became distracted by the local drug trade and became embroiled in a turf war with the leading supplier of heroin in the area.

Let's take a look back and examine what exactly was going on in the music video for the teen pop hit. It's catchy as all get-out, has a chorus that lingers like poison ivy, and adds unlimited spoonfuls of zip spin after spin.A dog is introduced into the clip next to one of the girls and the quartet then begin dancing and singing to a teenage boy in a treehouse. WHAT is often referred to as ‘Ireland’s Greatest Song’ C’est La Vie, sung by girl group B*Witched is fondly remembered by almost all of the country, but very little is known about the troubled writing and recording of the quintessential pop song of our times, that is, until now. To be fair the song itself was quite catchy, but the music video is where its iconic status really comes from. It served as their debut single and the lead single from their self-titled debut studio album (1998). Their record label reached a compromise with the band: if the record label could help the girls import 40 kilos of heroin into Amsterdam, paving the way for dominance of the European heroin trade, they would finish their vocals in a studio there.

Decamping to Nashville for 2 months of intensive writing the girl group shared their vision for a song that summed up their artistic ennui, and their view that life, an enchanting and fleeting dance, contained infinitesimal nuances that we could rarely grasp. We had tried to distract the girls with more prostitutes, but they had grown tired of the music industry when they realised how much money they could make from selling heroin,” Richie Stern, the band’s manager at the time revealed. Chuck Taylor of Billboard wrote, "This European creamsicle has already tickled the top of the European pop charts, and with good reason.

Leiber and Stoller worked 20 hour days trying to put words to the vision, while the girls spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on Nashville’s finest male escorts to take the edge off the huge expectations the record label had placed on them. The song went to number nine on the US Billboard Hot 100 in the week of 17 April 1999 [5] [6] and number six on the Australian ARIA Singles Chart. C'est la Vie" debuted at number one on the UK Singles Chart on 31 May 1998 and remained at the top the following week. The accompanying music video for the song features the four girls dancing around a lush green field full of bright flowers with a puppy as they playfully tease a teenage boy. Management had to break up a particularly violent fight, which saw Stoller lose a leg and an eye after he protested that the line went against the overtly pacifist ideals of the song.
