existentialist new moon on monday

Hi Katy! There are 2 questions I have about the New Moon video. First, what is the French guy saying in the very beginning of the video (after "Ladies and Gentlemen.." can you or someone else translate? lol 🙂 2nd, why are there 2 different versions? There's the one on the Greatest video collection, and the one which I have seen on VH1, and is also available on Launch.com. Just curious.. Thanks! Anne K. :o)

I SPOKE TO THE GUYS IN THE STUDIO AND NONE OF THEM KNEW THE TRANSLATION OFF THE TOP OF THEIR HEAD. SIMON AND NICK THINK THEY COULD TRANSLATE IF THEY WERE TO SEE THE VIDEO NOW, BUT THEY DON'T THINK IT WAS ANYTHING EXISTENTIALIST. THEY BELIEVE THAT ONE VERSION OF THE VIDEO IS LONGER THAN THE OTHER BECAUSE OF THE PHILOSOPHY THAT THERE IS NO EXISTENTIALIST REASON FOR THIS!
