Polydor Records is a Record label currently headquartered in the UK, and is a subsidiary of Universal Music Group. [1] Unlike the previous Farmer's songs "Les Mots" and "C'est une belle journée", as well as the cover of "Désenchantée" by Kate Ryan, "Pardonne-moi" was rarely broadcast on radio. " Désenchantée " ( English: "Disenchanted" is a 1990 song recorded by the French singer-songwriter Mylène Farmer.

Music video
The videoclip, whose screenplay was written both by Mylène Farmer and Laurent Boutonnat, was directed by the latter. Mylène Farmer born Mylène Jeanne Gautier (12 September 1961 in Montreal, Canada is a French Singer, Songwriter, occasional Laurent Pierre Marie Boutonnat (born June 14[[ 961]] in Paris) is a French Musician and director of films and music videos It was a Requiem Publishing and Stuffed Monkey production.
As the song had several oriental sonorities, foolish rumours went round about the video : it would be filmed in Morocco, during the singer's vacations on September 2002. Morocco (المغرب "al-Maghrib" officially the Kingdom of Morocco (المملكة المغربية is a country located in North Africa In fact, it was shot for two days in Stains (France), and cost about 40 000 euros - so it was one of the less expensive Farmer's videoclip. Not to be confused with Staines in Surrey England For other uses of Stains see Stain (disambiguation. This article is about the country For a topic outline on this subject see List of basic France topics. It features a horse (which gallops on a treadmill to give the impression that it does not move forward) and a snake which belong to Farmer. She had bought them in Morocco). Morocco (المغرب "al-Maghrib" officially the Kingdom of Morocco (المملكة المغربية is a country located in North Africa [5]

The videoclip, in black and white, features Farmer, dressed as a nun, praying, and sometimes performing a dance in a white smoke. A Nun is a Woman who has taken special vows committing her to a religious life During the chorus, she begs forgiveness in a smoky light came from above. A mysterious knight on a horse gallops, accelerating his running over the video. Afterwards, Farmer has white eyes, then eyes similar to those of a snake. A snake is an elongate Reptile of the suborder Serpentes Like all reptiles snakes are covered in scales. A big snake is also filmed closely. [6]
In this videoclip, "Boutonnat seems totally resume the reins of Farmer's image : total harmony between photography, editing, and sound, but also haunting images at the expense of the construction, as moments which are thrown on their own ambiance (. . . ). The absence of colours and landscapes, planes tight inspire melancholy, almost dread. This feeling is accentuated by certain images of the singer engaged in an epileptic choreography, pretending to struggle in a smoke. These images have gone for the most part upside down". [7]
Various elements of the video resume visual effects already used in the old Farmer's videoclips : black and white ("À quoi je sers..."), eyes rolled upwards ("Tristana"), a snake ("Sans logique"), a moon ("Ainsi soit je..."), a horse through a cloud of smoke ("Allan"), some moving sails ("L'Âme-stram-gram"), a smoky camera ("Beyond My Control"), and a succession of zoom lens ("Maman a tort"). " À quoi je sers " ( English: "To Whom I Serve" is a 1989 song recorded by the French artist Mylène Farmer. " Tristana " is a 1987 song recorded by the French artist Mylène Farmer. " Sans logique " is a 1988 song recorded by the French artist Mylène Farmer. " Ainsi soit je " is a 1988 song recorded by the French artist Mylène Farmer. " Allan " is a 1988 song recorded by the French Singer Mylène Farmer. " L'Âme-stram-gram " is a 1999 song recorded by the French artist Mylène Farmer. " Beyond My Control " is a 1991 song recorded by the French artist Mylène Farmer. " Maman a tort " is a 1984 song recorded by the French artist Mylène Farmer. Thus, many observers saw in these references a conclusive aspect in this video and a summary of Farmer's work, like "À quoi je sers...", 13 years earlier. " À quoi je sers " ( English: "To Whom I Serve" is a 1989 song recorded by the French artist Mylène Farmer. [7]

[8] The melody is "sweet and sad", with a "delightful and melancholy text" (Star Club). [9] "Pardonne-moi" has an "effective melody", a "evanescent voice" and a mysterious text, which can be interpreted in many ways (Télé Magazine). [10]
