That synth solo at the end is so beautiful. This is such a great complete package, with these liberated young folk dancing above the orange pollution down below. It’s an urban fantasy playground of sexy pop delirium. As it were. I’m 55 now but I get a little sniff of 16 from this for which I’m pathetically grateful.
As an old git that was groovin' in the 70's and 80's I would like to say this is feckin' great. If it can make an old misanthrope want to dance it's something special.
@Jessica Handelman David played most of the keyboards on it, and one of the primary loops is actually from the Logic Pro music software, funnily enough - it's a royalty free sample called "Neon Lights Keys 1"
@@Jigsjigz You can't make up your gender. If were that easy then everybody would be doing it. Your physical parts is what you are physically, male or female. Your mental gender could be either male, female, or bi. When you're born, your physical gender is already done. I mean you can do surgery, but that's not natural.
Every now and then you need a song to remind you that quality music still exists. In an age of disposal music, you find a gem like this. Great track. 5 out of 5
Travelled 1100 miles in the van today, heard this on Radio 2. Both me and business partner loved it. I’m 53, he’s 55. Just got in at 5am, had to play on youtube. What a great tune.
Thank Christ i finally found this!!! When you arrive on the scene 2 years after the fact and you cant believe anyone cannot be having this in their life. We are BLESSED TO HAVE CHRIS!!!
Christine is just the ideal artist. Talented all around, genuine, vulnerable, and just so naturally beautiful. It's easy to binge her videos because all of her music is SO. GOOD. She deserves infinitely more recognition.
Love this!!!....80s early 90s vibe,excellent melody,beautiful singing and janet jackson style video....but original in its self. Respect....you got a fan here.
Damn this is so smoooooth, can't stop listening - absolutely amazing! This gem is my discovery for this year. Does it mean that great music is back again?! It looks and sounds like!!! Yeah!
Dope song, video, and music production. Dig the humming-like singing overlay starting at 1:47. And how the song evolves starting at 2:50 - touche! touche! Planning to check out the upcoming album.
Lyrics Chris! I'm gone in a flick, but back in a second With salted skin, rash for no reason Boys are loading their arms, girls gasp with envy F-f-for whom are they mimicking endlessly? Same old sadness in small lumps on my jaw For lusting after is the usual freak show May your girl come, birdie die under this spur F-f-f-fingers angrily sunk on the jugular, then girlfriend Don't feel like a girlfriend But lover Damn, I'd be your lover Girlfriend Don't feel like a girlfriend But lover Damn, I'd be your lover (touché, touché yeah) Yes sir, I am wet, for I abandoned my fame in the lake Let's see now how fast you're breathing And how long this will all take Those who used to pass by me think they are baffling a liar F-fuck is you? You don't even taste much better! Came back steaming in sweats in the morning I muscled in for I wanted to hold him Then shriveled to let those bird-dogs rage through F-fuck is me? F-fuck is you, f-fuck is you, now, girlfriend Don't feel like a girlfriend But lover Damn, I'd be your lover Girlfriend Don't feel like a girlfriend But lover Damn, I'd be your lover Chris, I don't know why you trippin' Touché, touché, touché, touché Touché, touché, touché, touché Touché, touché, touché, touché You got to keep on rollin' girl, keep rollin', rollin' (touché, touché) Touché, touché, touché, touché (b-b-b-baby) Touché, touché, touché, touché (b-b-b-baby) Touché, touché, touché, touché (b-b-b-baby) Touché, touché, touché, touché (b-b-b-baby) (oh no, yeah)
Heard the French version first a few years ago and fell in love with the song. Just heard this version and couldn't understand a word. So I read the lyrics you posted... needless to say I still don't understand what she's singing about LOL
Omg how good is this? I absolutely love it ....I can't stop repeating, and the dancing. Michael Jackson fans will recognise those moves, just wonderful to watch ❤️
I love seeing all types of women being recognised and appreciated. Women can have both feminine and masculine qualities, and it being appreciated for what it is ,not being boxed into a stereotype of what we expect from women. THIS is what I got from this video ❤
I just saw Christine and The Queens perform live, tonight on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. It brought me here. Love her French accent! The song "Girlfriend" is a fresh revision of the great passion in the music from the '80's! Ahh, it is great to listen to and to dance to. I am digging it, very well structured, very cool. Love this new song. New fave here! WOW!!
This is so the 90s Janet Jackson, in a great way: music, dancing, costumes. Christine did say that she was inspired by Janet when she was making this album, and it's so obvious. I love it. French also sounds much better than English, so I love when she sings in English with strong French accent, but I love even more when she sings in French.
I loved Christina’s story of how she came to London to be inspired and cared for by folk she didn’t know ..... such a clever young woman, such a joy to listen to her, brava, thank you to her and to those who helped her into the spotlight 😘
Absolutely love this, to me it invokes amongst other things Prince's Parade album. It is atmospheric and clever.Only heard it for the first time last night and was surprised it hadn't placed high in the UK charts.

Refreshingly original.
This for me is hands down the most authentic late 80s/early 90s sounding thing i have heard produced NOW. Its like ive gone back in time...amazing!
thebatman1019 That's because the legendary David Frank from The System played keyboards on it :)
It's very Loose Ends - esque. Wonderful.
Yeah no doubt- and it's a great song.

Honestly, I haven’t been this excited by a female artist since Robyn. I can’t get enough.
Even better than Robyn!
such a good tune huh.

Doesn’t she say fuck a few times or maybe it’s just my hearing
Fuck is me fuck is you. Not sure what that means, but fuck is me fuck is you Chris!
Just found the song and had to look up the lyrics it is actually pretty deep
Y'all, there are subtitles with the lyrics :)
Play nice. Kay! Long nails, bad. Broken Elevator, good..
What a tune this is. An eighties throwback with a modern twist... love it
Touche, Touche, Touche, Touche, Touche!
Perfect song for broken hearts. Chris is so amazing. I love his voice and his dancing in the video. This is a classic.
The sound, the choreo, the vocals. This is giving me LIFE
The late steve wright got me into this tune,bbc radio 2.RIP Steve
Me too!
Same. RIP DJ Silly Boi
Yep. Lots of different songs Steve got me into. This included. I still love that Dua Lipa New Rules (Initial Talk 80s Rules Mix)
RIP Silly Boi.
And Steve got away with playing the uncensored version before the watershed. Sadly missed RIP Steve

This is a glorious song. I don't know how else to put it.
Lov those keyboards
okay so this song has grown on me so much. Those backing vocals 💦😍
Love the old skool vibe of this song
YAmaha DX7...is what gives that vibe....80% of 80's tunes had a DX 7 on them
Chris: defying gravity and expectations. Brilliant.
Never get tired of this. 'Five Star' and MJ vibes.
Thank Christ i finally found this!!! When you arrive on the scene 2 years after the fact and you cant believe anyone cannot be having this in their life. We are BLESSED TO HAVE CHRIS!!!
My wee mum would love this song but sadly see left this world yesterday on the 28th of Oct 2024 love you mum. Xxx RIP ✝️❤️✝️

Only discovered this after her performance at glastonbury. What a great track back to the 80's sound so cool just a great beat to the song.
You go for it rahim, dont stop. Absolute great song. Keep pumping them tunes out
This is just PERFECT. Song arrangement/Video/Performance/Delivery/ Oh!! A great well written piece.=Greatness.

It's giving 80's classics. I LOVE IT💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
Dâm-Funk killing it on that beat and always brings the FUNK
I am SO in love with her. Her voice and her dance moves are hypnotic 💜
One of your best songs ever. I cannot stop listening to it since you released it. Love from Argentina.
She's absolutely enthralling! I love this!!
Christine is beautiful and a great artist. Crazy decade for music the twenty tens
Every time I hear this on the radio I thought it was an 80’s track, wouldn’t be out of place on GTA Vice City 😜
Dainese when I first heard it on the radio those were my exact thoughts. I would expect to hear this on a GTAV radio station.
Dainese I don't mean to come across as rude but there is more to 80s music than Vice bloody City!
Me too, only heard this Friday past. Top work.
I did think the same thought lol
What’s your problem with Vice City?
Love this!!!....80s early 90s vibe,excellent melody,beautiful singing and janet jackson style video....but original in its self. Respect....you got a fan here.
I'm a straight male. I now wish I was a gay female rollin wit Chris 😀❤️🎵
A seriously addictive track and excellent video. Big fan. 👍
She swings both ways, you've still got a chance!
Excellent!🤣
Not really into modern pop, but this song is GREAT!
, I like alternative rock.. but I really like this girl, she has a great new sound & look. Next big thing.
Heard this on the radio yesterday.... Had a feeling it was DFs work.... Thanks again to Shazam 👍
Cette ligne de basse intergalactique...
The most exciting artist for a lllooonnnngggg time....👍💚☘😜🎈
Never seen the video before. It's a vibe of it's own.
What a brilliant tune. Loved it the first time I heard it. Has a massive Prince vibe.. Which is always a great thing!
Damn this is so smoooooth, can't stop listening - absolutely amazing! This gem is my discovery for this year. Does it mean that great music is back again?! It looks and sounds like!!! Yeah!
OMG! It's like 80s are back! So Madonna like clip! PERFECTION!!! MOREEEEEEE!!!!

Lyrics
Chris!
I'm gone in a flick, but back in a second
With salted skin, rash for no reason
Boys are loading their arms, girls gasp with envy
F-f-for whom are they mimicking endlessly?
Same old sadness in small lumps on my jaw
For lusting after is the usual freak show
May your girl come, birdie die under this spur
F-f-f-fingers angrily sunk on the jugular, then girlfriend
Don't feel like a girlfriend
But lover
Damn, I'd be your lover
Girlfriend
Don't feel like a girlfriend
But lover
Damn, I'd be your lover (touché, touché yeah)
Yes sir, I am wet, for I abandoned my fame in the lake
Let's see now how fast you're breathing
And how long this will all take
Those who used to pass by me think they are baffling a liar
F-fuck is you? You don't even taste much better!
Came back steaming in sweats in the morning
I muscled in for I wanted to hold him
Then shriveled to let those bird-dogs rage through
F-fuck is me? F-fuck is you, f-fuck is you, now, girlfriend
Don't feel like a girlfriend
But lover
Damn, I'd be your lover
Girlfriend
Don't feel like a girlfriend
But lover
Damn, I'd be your lover
Chris, I don't know why you trippin'
Touché, touché, touché, touché
Touché, touché, touché, touché
Touché, touché, touché, touché
You got to keep on rollin' girl, keep rollin', rollin' (touché, touché)
Touché, touché, touché, touché (b-b-b-baby)
Touché, touché, touché, touché (b-b-b-baby)
Touché, touché, touché, touché (b-b-b-baby)
Touché, touché, touché, touché (b-b-b-baby) (oh no, yeah)
The funny thing is the difference between french version and english version. I prefer the french one.

Love this song although I've always thought it sets itself up for an epic rap that never arrives
Summer soundtrack.
@VFT - WHAT?? you alright there is a banger
honestly thought she was singing in french before i saw lyrics
Very 80s and nostalgic to a time when the hooks stayed in your head all day.
Top tune.
🙏🏾😄💫👍🏾
Your welcome.
Ohhh, I just adore this 😍
Wow . dance is on point . Voice is awesome . Video is AWESOME .
Brilliant artist Chris ❤ musically and visually
Touché Christine! J’adore ❤️
Cool Jackson vibes understated pop ....so cool
Great tune...arrangement ...video .
...choreography ...love it
The summer of 2018 will remember it for this song belter back to the 80s
I love seeing all types of women being recognised and appreciated. Women can have both feminine and masculine qualities, and it being appreciated for what it is ,not being boxed into a stereotype of what we expect from women. THIS is what I got from this video ❤
Needs to colabarate with Daft punk, ooh the thought. I can hear Saturday love in this tune by Alexander O'Neal and Cherrelle.
I hear it too amongst other things too
John, it's Alexander O'Neal's "Fake" - now how about a megamix of the 2?... :)
john ebags isnt this song with daft punk?
john ebags nope, it isnt
That Fat Guy Over There Dam-funk he's an American producer, to be honest I thought it was daft punk.

No, I saw them on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. _YOU_ saw them on Jimmy Kimmel. They get around. Thanks for agreeing, though.
This is the best song that’s graced the charts for years defo a 80’s vibe need more songs like this
That synth break at the end I want it to go on forever!
Song of the summer and loving the West Side Story vibe❤️
Girlfriend........don feel like a girlfriend..... just perfect pop that comes along once in a while
I live for this song! She also makes me question my sexuality
You pouff....
I found out she goes both ways male and female that should help you not question yourself as much
Bisexual
Lonewolflegend than she is bisexual Thats how we call that🤗😂
Lonewolflegend explains why she kinda looks like a boy here then
90s New York City R&B vibe ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡ Love it !!!!!!!!

So glad to have discovered the artist and this song! loving pop after a long long time! She is Incredible!
Can't get this song out of my head.
Stand out tune of the year so far. Sounds fresh with a little 80s nod.
Reminds me a little of Scritti Polliti
Love it ....hints of Michael Jackson mixed with Nile Rodgers boogie
I loved Christina’s story of how she came to London to be inspired and cared for by folk she didn’t know ..... such a clever young woman, such a joy to listen to her, brava, thank you to her and to those who helped her into the spotlight 😘
The dancing!! 💜💜💜
And some say 'white people can't dance'. Total nonsense
Reminds me Paula Abdul & Janet Jackson
Soo Sir Michael... Jackson that is 🤗 French, female version of Our Michael! Love it!
+Frncsc - I think that's exactly what they were going for, considering it even sounds like an 80s Janet song and Paula was her choreographer.
@@mediacenterman8583 I've never heard that.
Very special sound and vocals!!!
Such a great song and wow what a great dancer, could watch her all day!
nice profile picture ! I couldn't help but to say hello. Please always wear that smile.
Easily one of the best songs I've ever heard! Most pop music is trash but every now and then a gem like this gets released!
A true BOP
She’s fucking amazinggggggggggggg!!!!! Damn, I love you Chris!
Can't wait to see her performing live 🎤
Vennie Lozanova Idk... She might lip sync lmaoooo.

Got some 80s soul lacing this tune, love it!!
Everyone takes inspspiration from somebody.its a class track.talented girl.long live music.

She is by far the most beautiful woman I have ever seen in my life 😍
Daniel Lawson a sheltered life because I think someone is incredibly beautiful? If you say so. ✌️
You destroyed Glastonbury!!!!!!!! Simply amazing performance with a subtle touch of Mj
Entirely agree, however it's definitely not subtle 😆
It has a 80's vibe. ✌️😎
