Nickname

[edit]

"Yelle (a portmanteau of yeah and elle)"

Wrong. According to an interview (http://www.yelle.fr/conf/upload/muteen10.jpg), Yelle is made from YEL (you enjoy life), with an added "le" to look more feminine. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.242.88.93 (talk) 06:11, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The pronunciation is meant with yeah and elle, not the meaning. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.198.188.71 (talk) 13:38, 2 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There seem to be two contradicting statements. In this interview she states when asked "Pourquoi Yelle?", "Parce que c'etait le 'Yeah', 'Y-E-A-H' et 'elle'. C'est 'yea-elle', 'Yelle'!" --Hpesoj00 (talk) 03:10, 17 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In the first interview mentioned, she also says "Yel était déjà le nom d'un groupe belge..." Yel was already the name of a Belgian group. Just a guess, but she may have made up "Yeah Elle" to make the similarity less obvious.Torca (talk) 06:41, 28 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Single title

[edit]

Is the second single's title (A cause des garçons) a referene to the french film "À cause d'un garçon"?--Nauki 08:35, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

it was a song originally by Alain Chamfort and Pierre Grillet performed by a band of the same name comprising Laurence Heller and Hélène Bérard

Hm strange, the song Je veux te voir is only in charts in the Netherlands as of 2008 Mallerd (talk) 23:18, 3 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I see I was too lazy to read 3 lines further, I guess it's the re-release. Mallerd (talk) 23:19, 3 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Home town

[edit]

According to Last.FM Yelle hails from Saint-Julien in Brittany (http://www.last.fm/music/Yelle), not Saint-Brieuc, Bretagne. I'm not up on my French locales, nor Last.FM's information gathering techniques, so can somebody explain the discretion? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Little tinyfish (talkcontribs) 21:25, 21 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Saint Julien is a little town only 10kms far from Saint Brieuc which is the main city in the area —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.13.109.81 (talk) 22:24, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yelle - the band and the singer

[edit]

Shouldn't there be a distinction between the two? Yelle is the lead singer of YELLE (the band), is this article about the singer or the band? 155.69.192.71 (talk) 01:01, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'm treating it as a page about the singer for now. 155.69.192.71 (talk) 01:23, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Converted into the band page. 155.69.192.117 (talk) 03:58, 4 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
