While it's fun to speculate, I wouldn't put too much stock into any rumors until we've heard either the whole song, or (if it's still inconclusive) from Alizee herself. At this point, I'm inclined to think that the song is just a song. Alizee and Farmer could still be on good terms with one another, and it's simply that Alizee has struck out on her own now that she's an adult. However, if the song is a parallel for bad blood between the two, then I'm sure the details will come out in a subsequent interview in the near future. Gossip sells just as well as art these days, for better or for worse.
Just my 2 cents. -B |
Are you guys ready to POWER BALLAD?!

I would take the song at face value. It is what it is. :) Then again I love this quote from Hunter Thompson.
"The music business (the biz) is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side." :cool: HT http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m.../thicons-1.png Nice clip Snatcher42. :D http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m...84/small-1.gif |
Interesting. Not sure if Alizée wanted talk about her relationship with Mylene in this song but to me the comparasion seems to fit and Mylene DID neglect Alizée during the MCE era... anways going to watch the movie "The Factory Girl" :)

My translation of the song (well, the refrain has some influence from the older clip translation. Didn't see any need to change that part really):
Fifty Sixty Pretty sixteen, Belle héroïne des sixties, Tu te dandines, T'es divine, Quand tu danses, Dans les yeux d'Andy... Adieu bebop, Plus au top, C'est le pop-art, Qui te sape, À la trappe, Pop-corn et hula hoop... Rêve de gloire et de fortune, Chic en Chanel, amour et toujours glamour, Aux expos tu poses et t'exposes, À 400ASA tu oses toutes les poses... Fifty sixty, Né en cinquante, Sexy soixante, Si excitante, S’extasie Candide elle croit, tout ce qu’Andy, Qu'Andy dit d'elle, Qu’elle est la plus belle De toutes les modeles Pretty sixteen, Beautiful heroine of the sixties, You hip-swaying, You are divine, When you dance, In the eyes of Andy... Goodbye bebop, On the top, It's pop-art, That runs you down, To the trap, Pop-corn and hula hoop... Dream of glory and fortune, Chic in Chanel, love and always glamour, At exhibitions you pose and expose youself, To 400ASA you dare all the poses... Fifty sixty, Born in the fifties, Sexy sixties, So excited, On ecstasy, Foolishly she believes, all that Andy, That Andy tells to her, That she's the most beautiful Of all the models |

Alizée had a meteoric rise as a result of Mylene's tutelage (as well as her own talent). Who knows what happened after. We have heard opinions that the record company told her to pause, and opinions that she had a falling out with Mylene. We also know that concert ticket sales were not as great as had been hoped (Imagine how she must have felt when the crowds were different and less than she expected). Perhaps there was a sense that the energy was waning, and that she needed to go in another direction. Perhaps Jeremys introduction caused a loss of focus. Perhaps Mylene could read the writing on the wall (if there was writing on the wall). Perhaps Alizée wanted to express herself in a way that Mylene would not condone. Who knows the actual reasons for the pause (possibly all of the above contributed)?
</O:p The bottom line is that she is now clear to pursue her own direction. If she feels somehow slighted by anyone (and I would be amazed if she didn’t), it will likely come out in time. Meanwhile, I can’t wait for the album. |
