Fancy made a comeback in 1998 with the remix of his biggest hit Flames Of Love. It didn't take long to captivate audiences around Europe once again. That year Fancy released Hit Party with remixes of his old hits and some new compositions. Only a year later another album D.I.S.C.O. was released and received very good reviews from the fans since most songs were based on an old Fancy formula which made him a star in the '80s. Then came the album Locomotion in 2001.
The second Fancy (http://myspace.com/welovefancy) is a flamboyant three-piece outfit from the notorious riot zones in the working-class suburbs of Paris.
Mixing AC/DC and T-Rex with the glitter ball sparkle of disco, Fancy comes armed with loads of make-up, feather boas, killer tunes at the ready, and a mountain of glowing press in France - including the "Most Entertaining Group" award from the French newspaper Liberation. Onstage, Fancy has supported MC5, TV on the Radio, Daft Punk and The Rapture.
FANCY also co-wrote the recent Justice hit ‘D.A.N.C.E.’.
“Above all, we’re about making love”, says their singer and resident rock god/dess Jessie Chaton.
The third Fancy is a British white funk band of the 1970's most famous for their cover of the Trogg's "Wild Thing," a single which went gold in the U.S. Former Penthouse pet Helen Court sang steamily, Rick Fenwick ex-of the Spencer Davis Group played guitar, Mo Foster bass, Henry Spinetti drums and Alan Hawkshaw keyboards. Fancy released several subsequent albums replacing Court with Annie Cavanaugh from the cast of Hair and Jesus Christ Superstar, but failed to regain the same success.
The fourth Fancy is a San Jose, CA based synth pop band that formed immediately after the dissolution of Volvox. Fancy eventually evolved into the solo project of Proton Pigeon.
Chinese Eyes
Fancy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Pay the highest price
Get those Chinese eyes
Live in love and lies.
Her love is my defeat
Desire has turned to heat and more.
My mind has gone insane
My body burns in flames and more.
Fire in your vains - chains and pains.
Fire in your eyes burn me twice
Love me with your Chinese eyes.
Fire in your vains
Chains and pains
Show me all your Chinese games.
You do what I want dare
You do it all with care and more.
You give me a relief
With your internal heat and more.
Fire in your eyes burn me twice
. . .
Fire in your eyes burn me twice
Love me with your Chinese eyes.
You satisfy my lust
You do it till I bust and more.
You chain me like a slave
You drown me in your waves and more.
Get those Chinese eyes.
Get those Chinese eyes
Pay the highest price
. . .
Fire in your eyes burn me twice
Fire in your eyes burn me twice
...
Fire in your eyes burn me twice

The song "Chinese Eyes" by Fancy describes an intense and dangerous love that has left the singer feeling defeated and insane. The lyrics express a longing for a lover with "Chinese eyes" and the willingness to pay any price to obtain them. The image of "fire in your eyes" is used throughout the song to convey the intensity of the passion between the two lovers. Despite the pain and chains that this love brings, the singer continues to be drawn to it and is unable to resist their lover's internal heat. The song ends with a repetition of the chorus, emphasizing the singer's desire for their lover's Chinese eyes and the burning fire that they bring.
It is unclear what exactly "Chinese eyes" refers to in the song, but it could be interpreted as a symbol for exoticism or otherness. This could be seen as problematic as it exoticizes and fetishizes Asian features and culture. The song also contains themes of domination and submission, with the singer being chained and controlled by their lover.

Jon Smith you posted the same comment, 2 TIMES, said exactly the same thing, on the same visit to this song? Opps.. you are fake commenting! Actually EVERY comment here about "CHINESE EYES" is FAKE, with false usernames...SOMEBODY worked many hours to create the illusion about great success of this FANCY song! Like...heard it once, and NEVER forgot it!!!!🤑😫🤡🤪😰
NO WAY is that true! ..OBVIOUS.
Someone is getting paid, to fill up FAKE comments, Creating false grooming & legendary status when TRUTH is ....FANCY has NEVER been that famous, like MODERN TALKING! 👽👿
BUT, he will forever be doing things like this, to brainwash unsuspecting viewers of how great
his own songs were! Even did a bad fake job with obvious comments, and replies to his own golden comments! POSING as every other person on the page, with 20 to 30 dif.usernames! And this is the same thing on EVERY FANCY SONG on YOUTUBE!!!
THAT IS HEAVY BI-POLAR MANIA
and NARSICCISISTIC behavior.
