+SixtySecond Yoga its poor advetising no-one knew about trouble in paradise (but it got to number 2 on the album chart for a short period.) (but mainly it was the record company as it was unknown to many of her fans that new music was released)
+Kaia Johnson perhaps out of favor with main stream but holds a spot on my charts but then again i love her hair so if she hadnt the talent and just that id probally still watch but the fact there are sevral of the songs on first album i adore does help matters and she is amazeing and probally can keep some of her privicy if she aint all blown up a blessing i would think lol though if i ever did see her i would want a autograph =)
fuck what "people" think is relevant, relevant is shallow meaningless music with no message and no lasting effect. personally I think if an artist isnt widely known or has become "irrelevant" that they probably getting to show us there truest self without bullying or interference from the business side of showbiz.
Reminds me of the quote from the movie time machine where it talks about our own time machines: memories taking us into the past & dreams into the future. The truth is that music paints time as art paints space, so it’s easy to be pulled back to certain moments. For me this song was the ‘salve’ when i released the guy who I’d spent months falling over myself to please, help, do things for was straight and just enjoyed having a servant to do things for him. Youth is full of folly heh.
@WoodlandAsh well I think we've all been there at one time or another. I can recall a time being so desperate to make a relationship work out to complete some empty, unfulfilled part of myself. The irony is, when we grow to understand ourselves and work on our own failings, partners notice, and everything falls into place. La roux's been there... I can hear it in the emotion she sang with.
and I'm a big baby who just got high and obsessed with her voice. is there enough cocaine on earth to make wanna share my husband with her? no need to answer a stupid question...
I dunno, but after years of having this song in my playlist it struck me... La roux is like the Eurytmics of our generation. Listening to this song after listening to Must be talking to an Angel is like listening to the same sort of song but from diffrent circumstances. One about a girl fully in love with her lover. And the other about a girl realising she is being used. Sort of continuation, but 33 years later. I would have loved to hear Annie Lennox' itteration of this song and Elly Jacksons itteration of Must be talking to an Angel... I can only Imagine. Hats off to Elly and Ben for this amazing song. From the bottom of my hart, thank you.
LYRICS: “I'm Not Your Toy" Love, love is like a stubborn youth That you'd rather just deny I'm walking on a broken roof While I'm looking at the sky It's all false love and affection You don't want me, you just like the attention Yes, it's all false love and affection You don't like me, you just want the attention I'm not your toy And this isn't another girl meets boy [2x] Love, love hides in a smoky light I can never find the truth Boy, your touches leave me mystified I wish I could believe in you Yes, it's all false love and affection You don't want me, you just like the attention Yes, it's all false love and affection You don't like me, you just want the attention [4x] I'm not your toy And this isn't another girl meets boy It's all false love and affection You don't want me, you just like the attention Yes, it's all false love and affection You don't like me, you just want the attention [2x] I'm not your toy And this isn't another girl meets boy I'm not your toy Oh, this isn't another girl meets boy
I had a fever dream because of this song in 2010! We went on a school trip to France and this song was My Jam at that point. I accidentally fell asleep on the bus, with it playing on repeat. I remember feeling really fucked up when I woke up 😂
First time I heard this was when I was living in Italy, a few years after breaking up with a toxic guy. I felt great in my new life with a great guy ❤️
I used to loop this limewire and would download it on sd card to sd card. I thought it was gonna blow up because she was super popular after bulletproof but It never did. Still brings back the best memories though💜
Being stuck home got me listening to songs I'm sad I forgot about.
Totally
Same...
Same
Same
Share some here!
I have been searching for this song for 7 YEARS. I heard it in a coffee shop in Romania! At LAST
Now you can die in peace. And who doesn't after hearing this joyful song. Bless :D
In romania :D
the struggle was real
Gabriel Ferryman welcome!
Gabriel Ferryman congratulations
13 years later
still an absolute masterpiece
dancing alone? maybe?
@@marcoprieto4919 No volunteers, so: Yes!
gawd, bless, x.
Couldn't agree more! Definitely brings back bright memories.
Oh boy, that brings me memories
it’s been 10 years, huh? back in the days I was literally obsessed with her songs and this one was my favorite. I kinda feel old and sad :/
Actually its a band.
@@denzowarmbad5486 First album it was a duo, afterwards only referred to Elly herself.
Nostalgia
listened to it everyday on the ride to school
Lol , same
WHY ISNT SHE STILL RELEVANT....!!! SHES AMAZING. IN MY OPINION.
I guess she shaded a load of people and slagged people off and fell out of favour? Maybe that's it.
Or maybe it's just the trend for this type of music went out of fashion.

She's timeless her music is forever
e booth and Israel won Eurovision with a similarly worded song just different sound
It's very much of a specific era, just not the one in which it was made
This stuff still slaps in 2023. I suspect it’ll always be good to travel back in time with our minds…

And 2024

@@tonyatonya4986 same 🤣 xx
Yep. It’s a good song
Virgin,

This comment section is a massive time capsule, all these peoples comments from 5 years years ago are still getting responded to! It's so cool
indeed
this is a response from the future!
Future is now😎
@@user-lh8my2hk1z Still listening in 2024!

All the music from this artist is not great bcs she looking how a Toilett

2020 Here :D
@@Jumpjockel what do you mean
Their entire album got me though my extreme depression back before I dropped out of college (2009-2010).
Love, love is like a stubborn youth…
I can't believe this song isn't popular
6 million views is popular.
+Lee Wyse not really compared to all these other videos with 1 billion views and all that shit..
the only reason any of her song are popular is from nostalgia LaRoux fell of after the 2000s
Me too
• Zachary
It was very popular in Poland
Her natural beauty is so outstanding I love her!!!
"I'm not your toy and this is nothing like a girl meets boy."
I have always loved this line ❤️
this song brings back so many memories. we’re getting old yall 🥺
Think of all the memories you had when this song was released. Those were the days, huh?
indeed bro
I was dope sick and getting well at 5am .....this was on LOGO music videos.
..love her....
This is classic synth pop.
Feel good music.
My jam forever! Since my teenage years!
I grow up with her music💕
She deserves so much more love. Gotta love the clip as well, so random, creative and funny!
She's not ugly, she just has a unique style, and doesn't have crazy amonts of makeup like most celebrities. You're totally beautiful gurl 3
This video was ahead of its time
I heard this on a bus today and I am glad because I remembered how much I listened to this when I was young 😢❤❤
These were the years ❤️ the most memorable joints were dropped in this timeframe imo ❤️
Facccts
This video is awesome…Love the dance moves
Timeless !!
thank u huntyyy
2:58 I'm dead. That childish smile just makes me melt!
5 years later and this still has to be one of my favorite music videos.
She predicted virtual reality.
She's BEAUTIFUL.
She JUS has her own 1 of kind looks.
She's DEF a cutie💯💯💯💙💙❗❗
Still my favourite after 5 years
I love you La Roux
This is Art
She's as though Tintin and Tilda Swinton had a baby.
HAHAHAHA omg i couldn't agree more!
and I'm a big baby who just got high and obsessed with her voice. is there enough cocaine on earth to make wanna share my husband with her? no need to answer a stupid question...
Brilliant! 😂😂
Their Lovechild!
@@FlickanIDetKroktaRummet hell, I'd share my wife with her!
don't rlly know whats going on in this video but its fabulous
Classic

Whenever this song plays I can't help but shake my hips a little. And all the people in this video are so 😍.
haha...true.....!
She reminds me of Mel C!
Oh Thiago this song reminds me so of YOU 😉
lexva5 I was just dancing that song in my house haha
K Mcleod a
This song was a complete cultural reset for me when I was in the middle school
This song makes my day better.. i need more music like this in my life
Things like this are why I’ve always loved British media/ entertainment 🙏🏽💖 // Ellie and Tilda Swinton are in my faves collection 😂💖🙏🏽🥃💖🥃
I love her dancing at the end!!!
SHE'S THE 80s OF THE 2000s lol THAT'S GOOD THOUGH :)
That hair is fabulous 🤘
2009 was actually a beautiful time for a recession. Love you La Roux xx
How in the heck has 13 years gone by?
Heard this in hollister in like 2008 and became a die hard fan of the whole album!!! And now she’s back😍
this was an amazing song
had such a crush on her when I was younger lol. Still would find her attractive, that voice is angelic
There's something so captivating about her
Amazing how I haven’t listened to this song and years and I know all the lyrics 🤨 I’m on a La Roux binge
Man, simpler times ❤
Awezomeeeeee video. I dieeee
for the Peacock chair.
It is reminiscent of 70's era CLUE board game cover
Come Back LA ROUX I miss hearing you.
Bring back more of the 80's charm.
This song is underrated af
this whole video, from the retro-futuristic aesthetic and gadgets to the androgynous style goals of la roux, is what i aspire to be
im in love with this song
this song still makes sense
Bring me back to 2009 please 🥺
me too 😩
the vibes in here are immaculate
My dad showed me this song last night I love it
Have not heard anything from them in a while. Still hope they keep putting out great music. The music industry needs more groups like this.
quint1968 This is a solo artist though
EDIT: Elly went solo in 2014
2019 here. who is up?
Me)
2020!
Advice from me to the Past folk: don't laugh at people with hygiene obsession
This video is great , I like the song also , very good
THEY FIT IN HERE… THANK YOU ẞæ
Dude I'm so glad I stumbled across this!
LYRICS: “I'm Not Your Toy"
Love, love is like a stubborn youth
That you'd rather just deny
I'm walking on a broken roof
While I'm looking at the sky
It's all false love and affection
You don't want me, you just like the attention
Yes, it's all false love and affection
You don't like me, you just want the attention
I'm not your toy
And this isn't another girl meets boy [2x]
Love, love hides in a smoky light
I can never find the truth
Boy, your touches leave me mystified
I wish I could believe in you
Yes, it's all false love and affection
You don't want me, you just like the attention
Yes, it's all false love and affection
You don't like me, you just want the attention
[4x]
I'm not your toy
And this isn't another girl meets boy
It's all false love and affection
You don't want me, you just like the attention
Yes, it's all false love and affection
You don't like me, you just want the attention
[2x]
I'm not your toy
And this isn't another girl meets boy
I'm not your toy
Oh, this isn't another girl meets boy
Thank u so much!!! Life saver🤗
@@mathabomadia3951 You’re welcome! 😊
Another "Banger" by La Roux.
Great song! The first image is just like from some 80´s tv show that is shown here on the tube just before one of The Glove´s songs.
It's like find a treasure that was lost 💕✨
I'm glad that I decided to rediscover La Roux.
I can’t believe this has been 12 years ago! Still timeless I say!
She super underrated man, but that goes for a lot of artist/bands that are amazing and original
It's 2022 Guys !!!
This song is still great in 2018 !!!!
LA ROUX where are you????
Danielle Edmonds she has new music out
Danielle Edmonds you can watch the videos on this channel...

Dude you have no laroux in ur chanel wtf
***** wut?

Another under rated artist!!
La Roux: POMPADOUR FOREVER
Trouble in Paradise: RIP Pompadour 2008 - 2014
She has a Tilda Swindon vibe going on.
*nostalgic* ... it’s my childhood
That ! That's what should have won the Eurovision !!
This vid is a masterpiece
LA ROUX IS GODDESS !!!!!
Great song
I wish La Roux released this here in the US because this joint right here is a bop!
I was happier the times when I listened to you all day long… ❤️
I'm Not Your Toy
My art teacher use to play this song back in 6th grade. I finally found it!!!! I love it😍😍
Amazing 🤩
I had a fever dream because of this song in 2010! We went on a school trip to France and this song was My Jam at that point. I accidentally fell asleep on the bus, with it playing on repeat. I remember feeling really fucked up when I woke up 😂
Who's watching in 2015 and still thinks this song is great
me and its awsome!!!
😀
MEE!
Daveena Valentine It is same as this days songs.
I'm innnnnn! :) :)
I swear This the best song I have listened to
First time I heard this was when I was living in Italy, a few years after breaking up with a toxic guy. I felt great in my new life with a great guy ❤️
Man I totally forgot about this song how amazing
LSS since first release. Still my jam. I feel so old. Haha
God id marry her tomorrow if I could.shes gorgeous.
I used to loop this limewire and would download it on sd card to sd card. I thought it was gonna blow up because she was super popular after bulletproof but It never did. Still brings back the best memories though💜
My summer 2019 anthem 🌞
