I do not know English very well but the lyric one with the song of Missy Elliot looks at as they are correct, with me. I think you look at perhaps too narrowly.

missy eliot rocks me world!

This might sound goofy, but "Work It" sounds to me like a 2002 stand in for "Warm Leatherette".

i WOULD JUST LIKE TO FIND OUT WHAT IS FREMME NEPPA VANETTE?

― CAMILLE BURNETT, Monday, 16 December 2002 20:53 (twenty-three years ago)

kim i assume you have heard the 'She's A Bitch/Warm leatherette' bootleg?

― stevem (blueski), Monday, 16 December 2002 21:15 (twenty-three years ago)

"FREMME NEPPA VANETTE" is "Honor the Fire" backwards.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Monday, 16 December 2002 22:03 (twenty-three years ago)

Yo, the song is very hot but what I'm really concern about is when you say "FREMME NEPPA VENETTE" what do that word really mean cause I ani't nevea in my life hear that before.My cousin told me that you be like it's your fault my pu*** ani't wet.

― D-ONE, Monday, 16 December 2002 22:37 (twenty-three years ago)

stevem - nope! I'm intrigued now.

Kim - SEARCH 'Warm Bitch' by Girls On Top - as you would guess, it drops the acapella of 'she's a bitch' over the instrumental of 'warm leatherette' and is predictably ace...almost as instrumental as igniting the recent bootleg craze as much as the aguilera/strokes opus

― stevem (blueski), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 13:40 (twenty-three years ago)

Help me please, I need the lyrics to Interpols - "Fremme Neppa Venette"

― Chris V. (Chris V), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 13:47 (twenty-three years ago)

Missy E is boring. To me. All her songs trundle along at the same pace, all quiet, w/some nifty sound effects to distract us. OH I am disappointed, I was quite excited about her. I was wrong.

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 14:41 (twenty-three years ago)

that wouldve been a good way for the thread to die...oh well...

― stevem (blueski), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 14:42 (twenty-three years ago)

i want to hear&see the missy elliot work it

― jake robert ward, Wednesday, 18 December 2002 16:10 (twenty-three years ago)

But Andrew, that's just patently false. Her songs vary from the quiet ("The Rain", "Work It") to the noisy ("Sock It To Me", "Slide") and encompass a fairly decent range of tempos (compare "Get Ur Freak On" to "The Rain" to "For My People" to "Work It").

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 16:16 (twenty-three years ago)

Look i love the song and everything, but it is really bothering me that I don't know exactly what she is saying when she says, "fremme neppa vanette"can some one please tell me exactly what it means and know for sure. It would give me great pleasure!!

― Clarissa Fenroy, Wednesday, 18 December 2002 19:33 (twenty-three years ago)

it means : "Im not going to let some snot nosed punk leave my cheese out in the wind."

― Chris V. (Chris V), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 20:11 (twenty-three years ago)

i'm thru with being nice now...if you've actually heard 'Work It' and think 'fremme neppa venette' is what she's actually saying then you are a complete ignoramus...seriously, you dont even have to understand english to be able to tell that its a reversed lyric - i SWEAR if i didnt know the language i would still be able to figure that out, i mean come on...

die thread die!

― stevem (blueski), Thursday, 19 December 2002 00:34 (twenty-three years ago)

I dig "Work It" plenty, but I think I already knew that Missy liked herself, sex and nonsense phrases. Don't mind having it repeated but I'm curious how long that will stay fresh.

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Thursday, 19 December 2002 00:38 (twenty-three years ago)

My perspective on Missy is very different from many of the other posters here because when she first hit the scene, I loathed her. Part of her freshness for me comes from the fact that I actually dig her now.

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 19 December 2002 17:47 (twenty-three years ago)

seriously, you dont even have to understand english to be able to tell that its a reversed lyric.

I'm now wondering whether or not this is actually true.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Thursday, 19 December 2002 17:50 (twenty-three years ago)

it SOUNDS reversed...basically i personally cannot believe some people, wherever they are, don't get that...its like being able to tell what a guitar sounds like

― stevem (blueski), Thursday, 19 December 2002 18:13 (twenty-three years ago)

I blame the Tories, blueski. Or the Republicans.

― Jeff W (Jeff W), Thursday, 19 December 2002 18:18 (twenty-three years ago)

"its like being able to tell what a guitar sounds like"

Who knows what a guitar sounds like anymore, what with all the effects pedals and synthesizers and ProTools and

― Real (amateurist), Thursday, 19 December 2002 19:32 (twenty-three years ago)

Does anyone really care to see Missy Elliots butt-naked ass? It makes me sick when she raps about it. If she bent over Bushwick Bill would probably crawl out of that mother fucker.

― Chris V. (Chris V), Thursday, 19 December 2002 19:46 (twenty-three years ago)

Chris, you've just spoiled her next video treatment!

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 19 December 2002 19:49 (twenty-three years ago)

I so want to photoshop this now.

― Chris V. (Chris V), Thursday, 19 December 2002 19:50 (twenty-three years ago)

― paul j, Sunday, 22 December 2002 23:53 (twenty-three years ago)

― aleksandra, Friday, 27 December 2002 18:27 (twenty-three years ago)

― Amber, Saturday, 28 December 2002 02:10 (twenty-three years ago)

In Missy Elliots song "Work It", i printed out the lyrics and I want to know what Fremme Neppa Venette means in that song.

― Carol Petry, Sunday, 29 December 2002 04:04 (twenty-three years ago)

I got a Korg MS2000 for Xmas, and while watching Mtv w/ my lil bro the video for work it cam on an d I figgered out the little sine-wave/whistley part, which is 3 notes with the portament turned like 3/8 or the way up. eeoooo-ee-ooo.

― Helltime Producto (Pavlik), Sunday, 29 December 2002 05:52 (twenty-three years ago)

What the heck is Fremme Neppa Vennette?? Maybe it is some different language but hey this song kicks butt!!!

― Chelsea, Tuesday, 31 December 2002 16:01 (twenty-three years ago)

damm, Kim just reminded me of how dissappointed I was that Chicks On Speed didn't play Warm Leatherette or End of The Century when I saw them live.

― kc williams!, Saturday, 4 January 2003 12:01 (twenty-three years ago)

okay okay:

"put my thing down flip it and reverse it" is backwards right after "put my thing down my thing down flip it and reverse it"

"watch the way missy likes to take it backwa..." is right after "listen up close while I take it backward" and before "I'm not a prostitute but I can give you what you what you want"

― richard stacey (analog75), Saturday, 4 January 2003 22:33 (twenty-three years ago)
