Memory Lane
 

Well we have over 15 years of videos of Alizee since she has become a star and that is not to mention the videos of her in school and at other times. I'm suggesting we form another thread, which I would suggest calling something like "Memory Lane" where people can post old official videos, fan videos or what ever that depict maybe a favorite song, remix, fan video or just a favorite moment and I'd like it to be a sticky thread. Do we have something like this already?

I was looking for an old L E video for another thread, when I came across this one. It had been posted sometime ago; I think well before the split and had been taken down for copyright violations. I believe it had been named Alizee - Goodbye Columbus. I had copied it and reposted it later with a generic name so it hopefully wouldn't be taken down. It's one I enjoy and I'm reposting it here, so others who I'm sure haven't seen it, might enjoy it too.

Alizée 2001 Les Enfoires.

Condensed version all Alizée.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qsVW_zeXSg

Full Version

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-DX0HbxQxU

hmm not sure i get this exactly so pardon moi if i get this wrong but it seems like a nice way to re-discover through others eyes and hearts . ALS the condensed version is great and thanks for also including her full . I don't recall ever seeing that condensed , though like SD said so many years of videos hard to remember them all . I am surprised of scruff selection . I'd always memory lane Amsterdam i must have watched it for a week straight lol . . but the new Nickelodeon is pretty amazing as being somewhat unedited and no flashy effects imho mo beta than others ( its like look i already know her name you dont have to shine text across her face . . . ( we really need to form an Alizee's Oceans Eleven and steal all the unedited performance videos ) . Now joking aside ( not ) over all the ones i watch most or listen to are my remixes of ML Techno and Jordyn Taylors - Shake It ( i can hear AJ's voice singing it and the accent would be mmmazing to really hear )

Credit goes to you Scruffy for making his MLT mix as that inspired me to want to mix .

Therefore my " memory lane " goes to

PS im still perplexed by how there are two versions of your video one full length of the song and the other which is linked above not being the whole song yet you cant recall how that happened.Its like youtube cut your video short...

Well what someone posts doesn't necessarily have to be a favorite. I was mainly thinking of posting stuff that maybe others haven't seen, especially newer fans or maybe just posting a picture, a commercial, an interview, that we haven't seen in a while. I was looking for a video to use in another thread when I stumbled upon that Goodby Columbus one.

It could be just a moment in a video where something struck someone's fancy. A moment you'd like to remember or discuss, but you don't really feel it's worth the bother of starting a seperate thread for each thing. Here is another one of those little moments.

First of all thank you!
I don't remember posting a second version of this and not deleting the original. I've posted two versions of a video before; in one case, several weeks after posting the original, I changed A Six Pack of Alizée and put a 2 after it which is what I usually do if I don't delete the second one. When I changed it, the first one had a good number of hits, so I left it posted because I thought people may have favorited it and would lose it; not knowing a second version was posted.

However I don't recall having 2 versions of the Moi Lolita remix. I'm sure I never used the full remix in this case. I always look at these videos in addition to just liking to watch them myself, as a way of promoting Alizée and using the whole remix would just be too long I think to ask a prospective fan to watch.

Along that same line of thought, whenever I come across a prospective fan, I usually show them my Six pack of Alizée video, because even if they don't like one song it quickly moves on to the next.

Nice thread Scruffy! :thumb:


Classic vid!

Well as far as fanvids go the one that really got me most was Return made by Orion back in the day before Alizée returned to us in December 2007. I never actually came across that vid until 2010 myself though and unfortuantly I can't post it here either because it's not available anymore but I remember it well because it consisted of clips from the Gourmandises video which is my all time favourite Alizée music video and it had a great soundtrack to it aswell from Laura Pausini, it just blew my mind.. it was like looking into a looking glass.

Anyway here's the song and english translation

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVsQrNrrWNM

I am coming back to you despite my pride.
I am coming back because there is no other choice.
Remembering the days on another latitude,
Visiting the places where I would see you,
Playing gestures and words which I have lost.
I am coming back to you from silence which is in me.

Tell me if there is still for me
Another opportunity, another emotion.
If you are still there
One more new and fresh song.
Tell me if there is now anything of us still inside of your eyes.

Oh, no...your eyes...

I am coming back to you because I still love you,
I am coming back to you against the wind.
I am coming back to you because I need you
To breathe out the anxiety,
To feel your strong hands on me
And not to feel myself always so fragile

Tell me if there is still for me
Another opportunity, another emotion.
Tell me, if you are still there and more
Our song which is sounding again.
Tell me, if there is now anything of us still inside of your eyes.

Oh, no...

If you are still there
Another song fresh and new.
Tell me, if there is now anything of us still inside of your eyes.
Oh, no... your eyes...

Just tell me if there is and I will come back to you






I always liked this performance and the way the crowd were so into it.. even back then it proved Alizée could sing great live and I couldn't help but notice around the 1:27 - 1:29 minute mark she almost looked like she was gonna laugh and was having a great time, I think it just emphasizes how great a live performace this really was. :)

Thank You!

Orion does great work. Laura Pausini (who I never had heard of before) has a beautiful voice and that's a great song, so I sent Orion a pm to see if he still has that video. I'd really like to see it.

That Laura Pausini video you posted is a great video in itself; beautiful woman; beautiful voice; very good video and I wlll check out some more of her songs later, but I already know what's at the end of that journey. I will enjoy her and her performances, but in the end, I will be asking myself what sets Alizee apart from so many other beautiful singers with so many other beautiful songs? Sometimes I get the feeling the answer is very complex; other times I think it's very simple. I'd love to find again what I found with Alizee, but I've been so fortunate in what I found with her, I do feel blessed for having her come into my life and I feel it's unfair to ask for too much and I'm still enjoying the hell out of what we have today.

This was a performance I liked because the crowd was so into it; in fact after the 1:40 mark, there are points where they just about drown her out.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJohde636Lc

Another live performance I liked was at a festival in Italy. The way she interacted with the audience with little waves was cute.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQbXG4PqQ00

Good stuff, well there were many other Alizée clips that we're familiar with, if you get it maybe you would be kind enough to upload it to YouTube, cuz I for one would really like to see it again.

This video stimulates memories .... This is one of the old Matrix's videos, seems to me. That man was really amazing.
I remember ... ... several years ago when he was still active Alizee fan on youtube, I used to watch some of his videos. And he was indefatigable, he would made sometimes even a few Alizee fan videos per day, so that in a few years made them a couple of thousand, I think. :)
I watched many of his videos, and they were a great inspiration to me in thinking about Alizee.
Really a good find, ... brings nice old memories. :)

From the video: 2:20 What are you all staring at? ... 2:33 I am married to the fans. You are my life, voila!
xD


This small part appeared in an interview with Alizee for the Belgium TV, Alizée - 2003-10-12 - Interview - News Report - Rode Loper - Belgium video with English subtitles at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H9rK57OLmNM


Regarding Laura Pausini song,
there is a fan video with that song. It's Pour Alizée at http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x1m...r-alizee_music (select Quality 380 for viewing)


And finally my recommendation for the Memory Lane. It's Papillon de Nuit from the time before her career:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMW5_4jDWb8

Even in this performance it's already seen that she's a future star! :13:
Just see her courageous.

This performance was in the town of Pistoia. When I made my first trip to Italy, I arrived in Rome. I knew Alizee had performed at a few places in Italy and I was really interested in two of them because of the beauty of the settings. One was Pistoia and the other was Taormina on Sicily.

So I went to Pistoia, because I wanted to better visualize how it must've been to be in this beautiful setting, watching this beautiful young lady.
A year after performing in Pistoia in Festivalbar they call it, singing Moi Lolita, she again performed in Pistoia during Festivalbar, this time performing J'en ai marre.

I wanted to post a link to that performance and I found apparently it was no longer on Youtube, so I re-uploaded it.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VEcGEQyNknA

I then went down to Taormina; another beautiful, beautiful, setting and just sat in that Greco-Roman theater, gazing at Mt Etna in the background, day dreaming again of what it would have been like to have been there watching her.

Getting back to enjoying how fans get into it, I always enjoyed those 4 young ladies who were side by side, waving to the music at the 3:24 mark.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KGa3sU-Ax9A

This is another of so many great moments. It was great to see her playing the drums, but more so it showed another of the many little gestures that shows the type of person she is. She just didn't wildly toss the drum stick into the crowd, she held them up to let them know one was coming their way, before tossing it as easily as she could.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EllWPSMOyOE

You're most welcomed , it is very interesting and i've enjoyed the stories above thanks all for jumping in .
Great subject as it's good to learn about each other and again see through others hearts <3 I could be wrong on the video being on your channel , perhaps as was the case years back with all the various Alifan-tubes . Someone maybe had taken your video and added to it then uploaded to one of the many now disabled Alizfan channels . . I'm pretty sure i have that longer version somewhere , as i recall now having saved - then watching both and wondering why one was short . Unfortunately my files are a mess and not with me to be able to access for awhile but ill get back to you on that . Also if i ever complete my MLT , my process when creating and before is to watch the videos im mixing in sync at the same time . Then i get an idea of what clips to use before hand , anyway watching your video and mine same time in sync , some parts of yours catch my eye and some of mine - as in they make a good re-mix-mix with your permission i'll eventually get to that too .

The promo-video you made may want to title that as so and explain how you use it , may come in handy for others to do the same with if they know . I saved it now so even if im not able to be online for those times i can show em . Really good idea for a video and if that isn't already a topic would make a good one - fan made promo vids .

Edit:

Yes she had a bit of giggle in her voice , i often wonder during the times when it isn't obvious - what exactly she is laughing about . Like your video it could be a number of things , that would make an interesting mix of clips of her giggles ( i love her laugh ) yet moreso interesting would be her watching it then commenting on the ones she remembers - oh yeah - this or that was funny . .

Edit:

I love those waves too , i wonder what her motives are there how it all started . Like i'd guess some people she recognizes , friends , fans who she seen recently , some waves maybe are for the going crazy fans so to give em a tip of a hat and calm them down a bit . As in o k relax i see you stop jumping around , your gonna hurt yourself or someone lol . . Maybe people wave to her ? Interesting side subject . . perhaps another good idea for a video mix or topic here and be a good thing to ask her about too .

That video you posted this link for looks like it was posted by Ben; the man who's been keeping this forum going for years and it was posted it looks like in the time frame for the video Un-rêve mentioned; in this case April, 2007, but this is a video where it looks like fans are urging Alizée to come back and doesn't have clips of Gourmandises in it; at least as far as I could tell. It's a 10 minute video and it stopped playing for me 3 times within the first 3 minutes. Also it looks like Ben makes an appearance in it . I think Orion might be in it, but I'm not sure exactly what he looks like.
Feel free to use any of my videos and if the original is of higher quality and if I still have it and you want it, I will send it to you some how.


We had a discussion a few months back about songs on Blonde and I had said I didn't like her laugh at the start of the song Blonde, because to me, it sounded like something that wasn't natural, something that was forced of course, for the making of the song; where as here in this clip, it sounded incredibly spontaneaous and beautiful.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOoyHtB37i4

and that moment brings to me another time when her voice sounded incredibly beautiful and that is back when they were celebrating the completion of the installation of strobe lights on the Eiffel tower back in 2003. Unfortunatlely the MC was babbling like a brook, but it was the most beautiful "Merci beaucoup" I've ever heard in my life.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tqkfEGkfCC0


I had wondered in the begining if that was something Mylene Farmer taught her "The fans like to see that.......wave often!", but when you follow her as much and for as long as we have, the true character unveils itself in so many ways, such as the thing with the drum sticks I mentioned in a previous post here, then there was her reaction at the M6 awards, her reaction in the studio during SAD 2001 and I think 2 of the most revealing moments in this video was at the :52 mark where a little brat almost pulls her into the stands and she laughs about it and there was the time in Poland when the interviewers made some off color remarks at the 3:03 mark and you could see the fury building up inside her.

There were the times she went back to Ajaccio every weekend early in her career to be with family and freinds. Her tremendous devotion to Corsica and family. It all points to a woman who is incredibly strong of character and as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside. How did Jeremy screw up so bad?

^^

Well the original video was uploaded on 30th of march 2007 by RondasX.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pUEEgkh_G_o

Orion was the main player behind this video though and from what I remember he spent alot of time putting it all together.. you can see his message to Alizée around the 6:11 minute mark.

http://www.alizee-forum.com/showthre...ages-to-Alizée


Well Roman, RMJ, Jessica, Homer, AlphaDevil2, RondasX, Snatcher, Orion and many others took part in this vid and I was also proud to be part of it. Well it meant alot to me and my Alizée journey and you can catch my message to Alizée around the 7:40 minute mark if interested.. I'm a lousy singer but hey I got Alizée on my side.

Once again BIG thanks to Orion, Snatcher and RondasX for bringing it all to life.


I feel ya, I also feel it's too much to ask to see that Return video again.

This is one of my favs!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sAmUOdmO7sc

In post #10, I wanted to mention Alizee's performance of J'en ai marre in Pistoia, Italy during Festivalbar. I wanted to post the video; saw it was no longer available on Youtube and decided to upload it again myself. I received a message today that the video was blocked due to copyright infringements and not just blocked in some countries which most often has been the case especially in Germany, but completely blocked due to claims by "R T I".

So I tried to look up who R T I is and if I got the right place it's,

RTI Music TV is a chain of music television of the RTI group only available in the morning on channel 1 and in early afternoon on channel 2 in Côte d'Ivoire.

I just hope this is just an isolated incident and hope we don't see her other videos taken down.

EDIT:

I just went to my Youtube channel and this is what it said;


Your video may include content that is owned by a third party.

To watch the matched content please play the video on the right. The video will play from the point where the matched content was identified.


Your video is blocked globally.


Copyright details:

"Alizée-J'En Ai Marre", sound recording administered by: 0:20
UMG


"Alizée J'en Ai Marre Festivalbar Italy HQ", visual content administered by:
R.T.I.

Eventually or as has been the case you may see videos removed and subvert to the copyright owners version .
Those videos which you have no copyright violations on should be no problem and will remain .

Basically you just uploaded the video and someone else who complains to youtube or makes money advertising from their version of that video and/or audio has them all taken down automatically . All though there is a human element youtubes song match program is pretty much infallible . So its not a sign of all her videos will be removed .

I'd recommend you make a test YT channel , most likely you wont get banned but with Alizeefan channels it seems to happen quite often . So i'd put em on the test channel first to see if they are removed - if they aren't after some time then you know its safe for your main channel . or even have a couple channels wont hurt just adds to the fun . I was just going to make this a subject but im so long winded no one listens , then i seen here .. anyway it would make a good subject but im tired good night .

Scruffy I just got around to watching your vid and yeah those Alizée expressions are the cutest! Haha well on a sidenote I was only thinking of Par les paupières this morning before I even clicked on your vid. :omg:

Anyway maybe it's something to do with this thread or that song from Laura Pausini that got me thinking of that song too. I dunno but we all wanted something new and fresh from Alizée back then and I believe Par les paupières was the most beautiful song Alizée came back with on her third album if not the best . :thumb:

BTW I was thinking of posting a small clip from an interview in Korea I believe it was. It wasn't the main interview in Korea but another clip or out take where her eyes were so expressionate looking up right left centre and everywhere but I couldn't find it on youtube. We usually get small glimpses of those cute kinda eye expressions from her and I can only imagine it's her way of running things through in her mind whilst she's thinking of what to say but in that Korea clip it really was Alizée eye overload. :scrunch:

Well it seems I was wrong, it was actually the bit right at the end of the Korea interview where she did that with her eyes.

Here's a link to that part of the interview..

http://youtu.be/QDqdaW_eKMQ?t=1m59s

maybe there was a slowed down version of those moments back in the day that I saw or maybe it was something else.. I dunno. :o


Anyway staying on topic with Alizée's cute eye expressions, many interviews she did have highlighted them, the M6 Kid interview for one is a real treasure but so is this more recent one . :wub:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJlEUJc0QeY

Well, I wasn't sure which interview you were talking about before, but while I was looking I came across this one, which has some eye action as well.

http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xj9...-nhk-etv_music

This was a moment I liked concerning her eye movement. It was part of a video I posted earlier in this thread, but here it is on it's own.

There was also a time when she was answering fans questions, live I think, where she was very expressive. I'll try and find it.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FF0iX...ature=youtu.be

EDIT: Found it!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMrK-X_EVws#t=24

^^

Her eyes are the window to her soul and when I first saw the light in her eyes it made me believe in something wonderful I can't explain.

While doing some research on Alizée for another thread, I came across this picture from the 2013 Les Enfoires which I was at where she is standing next to some gentleman who also participated in the show. This reminded me of the picture that was taken of her with Robbie Williams.

Now her face lit up like the sun. I'm not sure if it's because she's strongly attracted to these guys or just very impressed. What ever it is, it brings out her most beautiful smiles.

http://i1170.photobucket.com/albums/...psazao3lyq.jpg


http://i1170.photobucket.com/albums/...pskpjhpjz1.jpg

This guy is Mika, he seems to be pretty popular in France, he was very succesful in 2007 with this song and his first album. Also, he's gay, so I don't know if Alizée could've been attracted to him :cool:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RVmG_d3HKBA

She probably likes Mika's songs and if you recall she even sang that one "Relax, Take It Easy" at Les Enfoirés in 2008 in a sketch called The Match.

She really did like Robbie Williams music back in the day though and even stated in a magazine interview once that she even wanted to do a duet with him and so with that photo of them both together I think it's safe to say she was and still is a fan.

Her dad also posted posted a colour version of that photo back in 2012, it was actually taken at La fête de la musique where she performed Jai Pas Vingt Ans!

RMJ posted both the photos and info on them here.

http://www.alizeeart.com/vintage-photos-from-paris/

Here's some vids I made back in 2009. Crazy to think it'll be 11 years since I discovered her on march 9th.

Good stuff Plaz!


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hN5X4kGhAtU

Nicely done Plaz! I enjoyed your choice of music.

This is a classic back stage moment from Les Enfoires.....

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vR0dfKMie2c

I often get the urge to do this!!! This one of my favorite fan clips. I tried to find the original one, but couldn't so I uploaded the copy I had.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O8bERb6ZmKw

Hmmm. Guys, i have this idea of making a web site or maybe facebook account with the life line of Alizee. Collect all her videos, put the the right date, when and where it was made. Translations to english and any other language. That would be a huge project and take a lot of time, but it could be done little by little ? It would be our lasting present to future generations :bow:

It sounds like a great idea. Has anyone tried this before with Facebook? I don't know how you'd make all her videos available. I noticed not too long ago her performance of J'en ai marre at Festivalbar in Pistoia, Italy which I believe happened on 6/20/2003 had been taken down from Youtube. I tried to re-upload it but got nailed by Youtube.

Now I see the video is still available on a Japanese video site, but I think and I emphasize think, if it was posted on Facebook, they might nail it.

I also wonder if other of her videos may not be available for the same reasons.

The only way to find out for sure is go ahead and try it. Do a few at a time and if you do run into a problem like that, maybe just show some stills of that particular performance, along with the date.

Don't expect to get all, but I think you could still come with a very good site her fans would enjoy.

Alizée Music Video Database
 

There is such a site - listing all of Alizée's TV appearances and Music Videos in chronological order - that has been run by a Czech fan for the past 7 or 8 years. It looks like it has fallen out of maintenance but it would be a great project for someone to take over and run with it.

The current address is:

http://vdb.alizee.cz/

I had permission from the original owner of the site to capture the entire site in Adobe Acrobat format (pdf) but when the site changed hands in 2006 I lost that permission. But the original version is still there in my share if you want it.

The clips mentioned on the site are tied only to caps of the performances in question for identification purposes, which means they have avoided the problems of hot linking to Youtube posts. Doing so is only going to leave you with broken links very quickly and possibly your Facebook account closed. Remember -- both Youtube and Facebook are owned by Google and there is no escaping their wrath. There is a long trail of tears in this forum of fans grieving the clips being yanked from Youtube for "no reason."

If you still have your heart set on linking each post to a streaming vid, then I'd suggest you post them in one of the "Youtube-like" sites coming out of mainland China or Southeast Asia where the rules are a bit more... umm... relaxed.

http://www.soku.com/search_video/q_A...000000__ALIZEE

Good luck with this! It would be nice to see gasko's site recharged, updated and re-energized. A lot of the work has been done: it just needs some fresh blood to return it to it's former glory.

Here is another great video. Youpidou backstage. There is just something so incredible about watching her dance, even in this backstage video where she is dressed in bulky clothes that hide her great figure. I could watch this video all day long and not get tired of it.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NejF9gZh2bI

I just noticed - well it occurs to me that book @ .22 i'd guess is a chorus book for En Concert . Now that is a very rare item indeed perhaps not even cataloged or seen by many . Only hate to say but i'm pretty sure in that clip you only see her at the piano . I do believe that dancing parts no Jacotey only shown the other 4 girls and choreographer from EC ? ?

Edit:

Facebook is fun and all but like a forum horrible for timeline organization so i'd recommend if you devote the time buy a .com and make your own site . It's not hard to learn at all and not so expensive one can depending on bandwidth use do it for 1-200 per year .

As for " all " her videos , something to consider i believe as we come into the video age . . The speed to transfer data and storage capabilities will make a more video demanding and user friendly world - as in to edit video and watch - more than any of us can imagine simultaneously . So i'd guess in years to come the 10% of what we see will turn into 110 percent once the bootleg ( adding the home video style camera and mobile phone ) videos . These edits we see again of any of her performance videos include 1/10 of what is actually recorded by the always multiple cameras . I believe the Alizeefans will be most demanding when it comes to seeing the cutting room floor footage . Kinda amazing nones leaked out yet . .

oh wait some has leaked out what was i thinking - nickelodeon for instance which isn't cutting room floor so to speak but considering that it's un-released video with no overlays et al . Pretty much bootlegged material from the cutting room floor .

It seems that Matrix revived his passion for Alizee. See at his youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/user/MatrixFactoryGuy


;) :clap:

That's great news!

Here's an interesting one he came up with.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sp5cwvqz-_g

Well, in the Youpidou Backstage clip you can just see her boogie around a bit from 1:04 to about 1:15 which is kind of cool - also, is that none other than Mylène just visible at 1:52 (seated on the right making notes)?

Miss red in person. :)
