Here we go again. More craziness from my archive.
84. ...you try to get a new identity card with a photo showing something else than your face...
85. ...you are mad about men speaking English with a French accent, and again.
86. ...you used to go wild/unconscious at your first Jarre concert while your classmates went wild/unconscious at Take That concerts.
87. ...you left your boy-friend because he refused to dye his hair red (that was in 1997).
88. ...you left your boy-friend because he just wouldn't wear that black cardigan and that black/white striped V-neck shirt you gave to him as a Christmas present - and you take these two pieces of clothes with you for your next boyfriend.
89. ...you left your boy-friend because he preferred Kraftwerk.
90. ...you wanted to take ballet lessons when you heard that Jarre composed a ballet (Aor).
91. ...you always sing C'est La Vie under the shower.
92. ...you always sing C'est La Vie under the shower, and these foreign languages sound so perfect that your neighbours wonder where you actually come from.
93. ...you are waiting for Jean Michel to leave Anne so you can take her place, even if you need to wait forever.
94. ...you're a grandma, and you spend much of your time embroidering Jarre's album covers on table cloths - and then you make a whole lot of money selling them as fan items.
95. ...you test vocoders in your music store by saying, "Revolution! Human, not human...".
96. ...you want the industry to build a waterproof vocoder so you can sing Hey Gagarin under the shower.
97. ...you don't like Washington, D.C. because there are no skyscrapers.
98. ...your dog lives in a doghouse looking like the MGU in Moscow.
99. ...you've got a parrot that can sing at least ten Jarre songs including Diva, Zoolookologie, Arpegiator and Revolution, Revolutions.
100. ...you expect oversized electronics parts in each forest.
101. ...you collect remote keyboards.
102. ...all your musical instruments are waterproof.
103. ...you believe that there is a giant skull inside the Earth.
104. ...you always take a pair of binoculars to theatres and concerts and use them, even if you sit in the first row.
105. ...you've got a tattoo of the Earth on your chest.
106. ...you never had more than six rendez-vous.
107. ...you believe that the Orient Express is named after the Jarre song. (But you are absolutely sure that the Trans Europa Expresses weren't named after the Kraftwerk song!)
108. ...you did a presentation about Jarre at school, and it took more time than your music lesson had.
109. ...you need someone to keep you from running amok when people tell you they do absolutely not like Jarre and/or his music.
110. ...you'd like to marry at one of the dates which are the track names of Sessions 2000 (so you'll probably never forget your marriage anniversary).
111. ...you've mounted skytrackers onto the roof of your house, legal or not, because they looked so beautiful in Houston.
112. ...you wonder what the ancient Greeks performed at the Akropolis - I mean, they had no synthesizers, they didn't even have electricity!
113. ...you strongly believe that the skyscrapers of La Défense and the Grande Arche were built especially for that concert.
114. ...so were the Eiffel Tower, the MGU and Mont St. Michel in your fantasy.
115. ...you say Mont St. Jean Michel.
116. ...you know why Jarre will never do a concert on the moon - it lacks architecture to shoot projections onto.
117. ...you ask yourself if the Pope and Princess Diana had Conductor Of The Masses subscriptions.
118. ...you think Children Of The Revolution refers to what's written on the cover of Jarre's 1988 album (though that T. Rex song is much older).
119. ...you use the EUR 10,000+ 3-D CAD system at your work to recreate the Equinoxe cover.
Bonus track (brand-new and unreleased):
120. ...you buy an old analog Elka organ, and the first song you play on it is Last Rhumba. (Been there, done that.)
