MYLENE FARMER - L'instant x

Like "XXL", the video was made by Marcus Nispel, who also wrote the screenplay. This Requiem Publishing production was shot in Los Angeles and New York for three days (one for Farmer, the two others for the extras) and cost about 80,000 euros. In addition to the version broadcast on television, there was another video of "Instant X" that was in fact the first editing containing only Farmer's unpublished shots. Some video's photos were touched up by an American rock group that used them as cover of its album. The small towel worn by Farmer in the video has been made by the French fashion designer Jean-Paul Gaultier.
In this video, Farmer plays in the foam while she's lying on a cloud. The city of New York, which is under this cloud, is in turn covered with foam.
This video shows the end of the world, but was not much appreciated by the Farmer's fans. About the video, the singer said : "I wanted to retrace one day we can have, where everything goes wrong. It is a concentration of events as soon as we get up… and everything goes wrong again ! And we expect that time and it often happens that in a day or, or in a month, at a time when all things come to concentrate a bit like a puzzle, and this is when all this time redounds upwards rather than downwards".
It was first broadcast on television on December 17, 1995, in the French show Déjà le retour, but in a different version in which only the singer appears.
According to Instant-Mag, the foam in which Farmer rolls could be a symbol of the orgasm, as it is in French literature.
