Alizée is better...

I'm not biased...

No. I'm not biased. Laura Pausini is better. No offense to anyone, but she has a voice that's more powerful and her songs have more meaning. I still like Alizee. But, Laura Pausini is a better singer. Let's be honest people. And she's fluent in five languages, and more famous than Alizee. That was horrible grammar, but I don't care.

Looking for Orion's return video.

I have to admit, Laura Pausini has a great powerful voice. You can't compare both artists in voices becuase both artists sing for a specific different genre. Laura can reach notes Alizee will never reach, and although Alizee doesn't have that type of voice, there is something about her that makes her unique in voice, appearance, persona, and style that we all enjoy.

they both have beautiful voices and different styles - if I didnt know better, they could be Sisters !!!

weak arguement - Alizee can also speak in 3-4 languages, and sings 3-4 different genre's. I dont know much about Laura yet, as I just discovered her (so cant comment on the more famous part).

Ironicaly, i found Laura on a thread on this forum. dont recall which one. but fell in love with her.

now - my European List =
France-Alizee, Priscilla
Italy-Laura
Spain-0
Germany-0
England-0
Poland-0

The being fluent in five languages thing was just a random comment. They do both sing well. But, Alizee is more of a bubble gum laid back pop kind of singer. On the other hand Laura Pausini has happy songs and ballads. About the being more famous, I'm pretty sure she is since she has sold over 60 million albums worldwide (as of 2009). Laura is mainly famous in many European countries, Latin America, and among the Latin community in the U.S. But, I do agree that you can't really compare them since they have different styles.

what do you consider happy or sad music?

they both have happy songs, and i just found Laura, and only hear the Romance Songs so far, which i dont call happy songs, they are slow and make you think of life issues.

Yes, but as far as we know she is not fluent in anything other than French.

I agree on everything else that's been said in favor of Laura except popularity - that is no merit of talent at all, it's really all about finding the right team and getting the right exposure. More luck than talent, really.

I like them both, but Alizee will always be my favorite European fairy. :)

Laura Pausini seems like more experienced professional, while even after 10 years, Alizée is trying to settle down in her career.
