“Parlez Vous Francais?” by Art vs. Science

"Parlez Vous Francais?" was the second single from Art vs. Science's self-titled debut EP, sent to radio in 2009, and it's the Australian electronic band at their most gleefully daft: a bouncing electropop romp built around schoolroom French. The band later admitted they had checked the grammar with every French speaker they could find and were always told it was fine, until they played it in Paris and the crowd wondered whether they were being mocked.

Alex Roberts directed the video, which earned a nomination for Australian Music Video of the Year at the 2009 J Awards. Most sales counted toward the EP, but the track still reached number 41 on the ARIA digital chart, and in 2010 it crossed to the UK as a double A-side with "Flippers".
