In her particular case, music itself does not necessarily affect you unless you have a degree in French or previously saw any of her highly effective, and most of the time disturbing, ambitious videos ('Tristana', 'Sans Contrefacon', 'Sans Logique', 'Beyond My Control', 'Desenchantee') - issues of death which she combined with obscenities of all sorts make perfect commentary on our daily routine stabbed with sense of fright and autosuggestion, whether it is sex, death or religion. Songs are usually icy vocals, very sensitive but the moment you get to sensitivity they pound you like a hammer. The first two albums are essential at such point. The rest respectfully continue to create an aura of misticism around this excellent artist. Recent works like 'Remixes' for example, are a little too late to reveal any impact Farmer might have (had) on the clubbing scene, still her electro-pop does not stand out either.
