  1. English lyrics :

    her eyes were of a light color and was wearing velvet dress

    next to her mother and the family

    she stands in a distracted way under the mild sun at the end of the day

    Is not a good picture, but we can see

    happiness personified and the mildness of an evening

    She loved music, especially Schumann and [then] Mozart

    as you do

    as you do

    like you, who I'm looking at

    as you sleep dreaming of all kinds of things

    like you

    She used to go to school down the village

    she learned about books, she learned the rules

    she sang about frogs and about

    princesses that sleep in the forest

    She loved her doll, she loved her friends

    especially Ruth and Anna and Jérémie the most

    maybe one day the would get married in Warsaw

    as you do

    as you do

    like you, who I'm looking at

    as you sleep dreaming of all kinds of things

    like you

    Her name was Sarah, and she was not even 8

    her life was tenderness, dreams and white clouds

    but some people wanted for her something different

    Her eyes where of a light color like yours, and she was your age

    she was a little girl without a past and well-behaved

    but she didn't live like you [ she wasn't born as you did]

    here and now

    as you do

    as you do

    like you, who I'm looking at

    as you sleep dreaming of all kinds of things

    like you

    Details : Kelli Dayton, also known as Kelli Ali (a name she took to honour her father, Michael Ali), was born 30 June 1974 in Birmingham, England.
    Ali is a female vocalist most recognized for being lead singer for the trip-hop group Sneaker Pimps, under the name Kelli Dayton. Though she was featured prominently in both the songs and the music videos for the album Becoming X (the group finding fame following the release of the hit single "6 Underground"), she was released from the group in 1998 when they decided to do vocals for their own songs. Before Sneaker Pimps, Kelli was part of a group called Psycho Drama. A few years later, she was asked by Russell Cross of the band The Lumieres to join his band (as their songwriter, singer, and lead guitarist).The Lumieres only had one major single, "Cinder Hearts".
    After leaving the Sneaker Pimps, she moved on to a solo career under the name Kelli Ali. Her first solo album was Tigermouth in 2003, which included tracks "Sunlight in the Rain" and "Kids," which featured ex-Doors drummer John Densmore. She toured alongside Garbage in 2003 and released a follow-up album, Psychic Cat, in mid-2004. The second album was more of a return to Ali's rock and roll roots and featured musician-turned-author Tony O'Neill on keyboards.
    In April 2006, she travelled to Japan to record and write tracks with Hoshino Hidehiko from Buck-Tick and Cube Juice for the band Dropz. The same year, producer Paul Oakenfold recorded the Kelli Ali penned song "Faster Kill Pussycat" with actress Brittany Murphy, which remained Murphy's only single release.
    On 24 November 2008, Ali released Rocking Horse, her third solo album. The album was produced by Max Richter (Fat Cat records) in Glasgow and Edinburgh in the first half of 2008. In 2009, she self-released the album Butterfly.

  5. Name : Sneaker pimps

    Origin : Hartlepool(England)
    Identification : Trip Hop, Electro, Downtempo, Dub
    Years : 1994 - 2005



    Details : Sneaker Pimps were a British trip-hop band formed in Hartlepool, England in 1994. They are best known for their first album Becoming X (released in 1996) and particularly the singles "6 Underground", "Spin Spin Sugar", and "Tesko Suicide" from the same album. They took their name from an article the Beastie Boys published in their Grand Royal magazine about a man they hired to track down classic sneakers.
    The band's founding members were Liam Howe and Chris Corner, who then recruited Kelli Dayton (formerly of Lumieres, now recording under the name Kelli Ali) for vocal duties and long-time friend Ian Pickering to provide lyrics. After the first album, the band felt that demos for the second album (on which Corner provided the guide vocals) better suited his voice, especially in regard to the more raw, personal quality of the lyrics. Following the promotional tour for Becoming X, Kelli was dismissed from the group, and Corner became the singer.
