They became known in 2000 with their first release, "Lady (Hear Me Tonight)", a "french-flavour" house track with heavy pop and disco influences, which featured a sample from Chic's "Soup For One". The track became an instant #1 across Europe, and was followed up by other singles "Chillin'", "What I Mean" and "No More Tears". With this last single, they started calling themselves Modjo Band.
After "No More Tears" they started their respective solo careers, with Romain Tranchart remixing songs from various artist like Res ("Golden Boys"), Shaggy ("Sexy Lady"), Mylène Farmer ("California") and post producing the likes of Everynote's "Once Upon A Time". Yann released a very Queen-esque album, reaching some success in France.

Rollercoaster
Modjo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Finding strength to call and ask her
Rollercoaster favorite ride,
Let me kiss you one last time
Leave me standing here, act like I'm not around
The coast will probably never clear, can I please go
Home now
Where I wait outside until you let me in,
And there I stay
Lay beside me and listen at the wall,
We'll keep on lying until the summer comes
I had that dream about you again,
Where you drive my car right off the fucking cliff
And now I'm breathing deeply, walking backwards,
Finding strength to call and ask her,
Rollercoaster favorite ride,
Let me kiss you one last time
Make me promise that I will never tell,
All I remember's the way her bedroom smelled
I had that dream about you again,
Where I wait outside until you let me in
And now I'm breathing deeply, walking backwards,
Finding strength to call and ask her
Rollercoaster favorite ride,
Let me kiss you one last time good night
Good night
The lyrics to Modjo's song "Rollercoaster" describe a complicated relationship in which the singer is pining for someone who may not reciprocate their feelings. The singer is breathing deeply and walking backwards, perhaps to gain distance from the situation or to calm themselves down before attempting to contact the object of their affections. The line "rollercoaster favorite ride" could be a metaphor for the up-and-down nature of the relationship, which may be exciting but also tumultuous. The singer wants to kiss the person "one last time," suggesting that perhaps the relationship has run its course or that the singer understands that it may not be healthy to continue on this path.
The second verse continues the theme of the singer's dream, in which they wait outside until the person lets them in. The line "leave me standing here, act like I'm not around / the coast will probably never clear, can I please go home now" could imply that the singer feels ignored or dismissed by this person, and wants to escape the situation. The singer also describes listening at the wall with the person, likely engaging in intimate moments before the summer ends. The dream where the person drives the singer's car off a cliff could be interpreted as a metaphor for the instability of the relationship.
