It’s funny. Before I knew more of what this song was really about, I still had that initial feeling that it was lyrically wonderful, so I gave it high marks expecting to be proven correct once I understood it better. I liked the way Alizée sang it, but I agree that musically it is not the best on the CD.
There are other songs on this CD I didn’t appreciate a lot at first, but have grown on me quite a bit. Isn’t it wonderful that a year later, we are still finding new things to appreciate about this CD. I wish the whole world felt the same way. I know I keep repeating myself, but this CD is better than many of the initial reactions it received would have you believe.
