Why have the natives gone so silent? I know the past 12 months have been turbulent, but I am astonished by the lack of enthusiasm around these parts lately. We have a new album coming out people, she is twittering everyday, she is giving us insight on the new album.
She is actually communicating! Is that not what we all yearned for?
Not one person had a take on the Chateau Marmont thing?
I for one am very happy that she has set a new course, and it seems like she is happy too. Just look at the picture from lunch. You can see she is genuinely having a blast.
I am really happy for her! and I am really happy to be a Alizee fan right now.

I'm delighted she's found a method of communication she likes. I never thought much of the whole twitter thing but if it works for her I'm in. Maybe this is what we (her and her fans) were looking for, doesn't take much effort and yet we connect.

I know what you mean, B, its been pretty quiet 'round these parts lately. I remember a year ago when I joined, there were tons more comments each day, ridiculously quirky threads, and booming personalities. Not saying those things have completely disappeared, but they have definitely slowed some.
I also am happy now (especially with this Twitter thing :cool:), and her apparent excitement for the new album. I guess its just harder for me to summon the type of enthusiasm I had back when a mere smile or note of hers could set my heart aflutter.
Hopefully, the release of the new album will have things back up to speed again :).

:( I've noticed that too. When I joined, last september, AAm was a lot more active than it is now. Even I have slowed down, and not only me, most of the regular guys have. Not to mention that Barrett left, which may explain the lack of posts :p.
We had Les Enfoires time and I couldn't see any change :blink:, we had this Aguascalientes concert and yet, couldn't see any change, still the forums are slow. Let's see what happens after the album release...

Um I did.
Did you know Chateau Marmont is in her up and coming album.

Cool down whats with you. I'm sorry not everyone here is as "Alizee"-whipped as you are. Just because we r not acting like retards does not mean we r not excited. People have different ways of expressing feelings.
I'm guessing some people have grown up & matured and realized Alizee is not everything. TheBarret even got over his obsession with Alizee, & has no desire of ever coming back to these kinds of forums because he does not like the atmosphere.... to many Alizee "fan-boys".

I guess it’s just the ebb and flow of a fan site. We have been in the darkness for most of the last 6 to 8 months and there have been a few very disappointing episodes. There have also been bright spots more recently like Les Enfoirés and news of a new album, not to mention that Alizée is actually communicating to her fans via Twitter.
I know I have not felt like posting as much during this time, and maybe it’s because we still don’t have enough information to do more than speculate. I’m sure I will be more active once the music, interviews and videos start to appear and we have something tangible to talk about. Maybe a lot of other people are just waiting for the same thing. It can get crazy around here once Alizée kicks into high gear.
In any case, I really am excited by the recent developments and I’m looking forward to hearing the new album.

I kinda agree what you guys say, but for me and alot of you that have jobs and or school stuff dont find alot of time to log on and write stories on these forums due to being tired, or having to much stuff to get done, family stuff, kids ect... Me myself eventhough i log on and red what everyone else wrote but some topics just dont intrest me, and I dont write on them. Im not saying that Im over Alizee which is not true. Im excited for the new upcomming album and that she is communicating with the fans via Twitter. I guess wht im trying to say is that sometimes after work i just have the strenght to (puting it bluntly) to write or even argue about certain topics.

I'm taking a wait and see attitude. I'm not big on trivia conversation. I'm glad others are because I enjoy coming to this site daily to see what is going on. This last yr. has been a rollercoaster ride In Alizee world. It's too much of a letdown when fans including myself get excited and nothing happens like cancelled concerts. I can't imagine what it is like for long time fans and the disappearances and reappearances between albums and the lack of communication with the fans. I'm really trying not to get my expectations up too high for Alizee's next album. It is really hard not to though. I'm easy to please when it comes to Alizee and I'm sure I will like whatever she puts out. I just want her to be a commercial success for her sake and her fans sake. I also want her to be able to be true to herself and not sell out in the process. AA is the best fan sight in my opinion for whatever it is worth.:)

Personally, myself, I've been having to deal with that messy thing called the real world. Haven't had the time to indulge. Had to steal a few minutes before bed to write this entry. But I am eagerly awaiting the new album. I look forward to having something new to play in french to make the people in my town look at me funny.

There you go. Some of us are old, now, and we get tired. :p

This is me as well. I've been burning the candle at both ends a bit the past couple of weeks, between work (which has been INSANE) and social obligations. Any time I do have to sit down at the 'puter, I've been mostly devoting to editing the podcast. I always have iSpy and Twitter running in the background, so I do my best to keep up, but I don't always have time to comment on everything.

We appreciate it very much, Ruroshen! Wish I could make it to more recordings, but it just hasn't been working out lately.

aye my homeboy is no longer around these parts at least we have set up shop elsewhere too :D
some departures mean less not only from them but from others as well. some have left because they are busy others for personal reasons and yet others for reasons within the forums themselves, but for whatever reason they leave it is their choice and everyone here can take it how they choose
there are always slow times among forums
not to mention too much seriousness around lately even among off-topic

My only guess is everyone is afraid to speculate because they are afraid to be disappointed when the new album come out. Sort of on the lines of what lefty said. This my opinion on the matter.
edit where is lefty's post, oh well I saw it somewhere and I cant remember but it was along the lines of this subject and I agreed with him.

Lots of reasons to be happy today!!
The natives have gone so wild that I think much will get missed.
