Let me give you an example of what I mean by "hints." Prior to the autograph session where Scruffy got all those autographed copies of UEDS for some of us, a lot of people on this forum wondered if...

I hope so, but the odd thing is that she hasn't been silent. It's just that a lot of people think she has been, because she communicates in these little hints, I suppose to see if people are paying...

While I don't agree that she should ignore any fans that stay fans, I do agree that she should concentrate on seeking new ones, and that those who want the old Alizée back and will not settle for...

It's been my belief for some time now that Alizée has chosen not to pursue the kind of mega-success she had in the past because it would likely destroy her marriage if she did (and succeeded).

That's where we disagree. I am not "making excuses," I am criticizing a view that I consider crass and shallow.

This is self-evidently untrue. If it were true, UEDS would have sold better. I bought it because I liked it. So I suspect did most of the people who bought it. Most of it could be heard without...

To start with, because how good an album is, and how well it sells, are two virtually unrelated subjects. H.L. Mencken once famously stated that nobody ever lost money by underestimating the...

I sometimes had the impression during the Psych period that she was trying very hard NOT to be sexy, which is rather like the sun trying not to shine. Or, perhaps a better comparison would be a very...

I'm not familiar enough with Shakira to say one way or another, but I certainly don't respect Britney Spears as an artist. She should get kudos I suppose for turning her life around, but that's a...

I'm not putting words in your mouth at all. I quoted exactly what you said. Nor do I think I'm "over-analyzing" what you said. In fact, you confirm in this same post that I am exactly right in what...

There are quite a few implications in there besides "her albums are flops." (Psychédélices wasn't a flop by the way.) There's the implication that...

I agree. I also agree with what Mon Maquis said above. Those like Euphoria who, it seems, will never like anything Alizée does that is not like what she used to do, should simply move on. Those...

Ah, now I understand. You mean that Her Grace was more worldly, less naive, less innocent (except I hate that word used as a synonym for "ignorant"!) than some might think. Agreed. Again that comes...

All of this is stuff I already knew. That Lolita was a character ("personnage") and not the real Alizée is not news. That Alizée left Mylène in order to be her own self in performance is also...

There may be many people who wish Alizée had remained with MF/LB and continued doing the same things, but that's along the lines of wishing time to stand still. It's not even remotely realistic. It...

That's a lesson Alizée needed NOT to take away from her mentor. Alizée is not Mylène. Part of Mylène's success is her mystery and mystique. She can get away with that sort of thing. Alizée, whose...

I wasn't one of them. I thought that was a great idea. The thing wrong with this one is that it doesn't fit Alizée's motivational pattern or mind-set. You're making her out to be a mercenary who...

Scruffy, that has to be the worst idea I've heard in a long time. :rolleyes:

I honestly don't know how to go about this. There are two conflicting things. Alizée is good about giving out...

Part of what I'm basing my opinion on is the much lower level of success of MCE compared to Gourmandises. Alizée was on the threshold of adulthood, but the music written for her and the choreography...

Honestly, I think "panties" is being a little unfair to the French public and Alizée's old fans. It implies that there was nothing to her success beyond sex appeal. I think that's absurd. Sure, there...

Well, let's be honest: commercially, UEDS was a flop. End of story. Artistically, it's great, and that's fine as far as it goes, but she does need to sell. The style, and her performance in it, just...
