Ask Alizée ifshe likes it or not, she might or might not. She's got her own opinion, you're not her opinion. Understand?
That's not what either of us ever said. This is what YOU assume! I just said she would never sing something so trashy. I suppose that you think you're her voice of opinion?

Before your little tail traveled along we did fine, we lived in harmony, unlike other forums who've had rebellions and straight out bash wars.

These so called "stupid comments" are every individual forum member's form of self-expression, it's how I, we, identify them from the rest. Do you expect everyone here to be sheep posting something like "Oh my god beautiful Alizee hair" on every post on a thread to discuss that?
NO! We've got Ruro busting out his chops, Ben providing insight, Wasabi showing his new bug bite, etc.
It's the interesting little tidbits of this site that makes it fun and interesting, you're trying to tell us that we should run each thread like an Iron Curtain.
Again you're assuming because you're obviously offended by my comments,and not because you have a legitimate point to make. How is any of that Alizee related,and helping to further her career? I've seen a few of these bashings on here too - this forum's not exempt from disharmony,especially since the RA here thinks no one should disagree with him!

You're being incoherent, and i'm sorry to say it.
I tell you go back to your previous state not because i'm uncomfrotable with your comments, but that you're being uncomfortable with ours, eh?
I aleady stated that I didn't agree before. Are you reading all that I said,or are you skipping over the parts that you don't find interesting? I'm right on the money,not incoherent at all. You understood everything I wrote so far - right?

Um....Wrong again! That's not part of my psyche. I find out what I want to know. I don't guess,in my line of work - that can get you killed,and cost a lot of money. I see that you're trying desparately to get me to agree with you to save face with all these other people on here because they know you right? Assumptions,opinions,suppositions,and guessed have killed nations - look at the Romans,and the Japanese.

I don't need information, i'm fine perfectly where I am, just a passive fan.
Now the fact you're using that as an argumentative tool says your desperate to win a war of words.
As you are also.

Get this tough guy - Just because you say it - that doesn't mean that it's the truth,only your opinion. I have information that you'd kill for,but that's not the point I was trying to make. Now you've gone off topic,and wasted a lot of bandwidth for others of this forum by continuing your fight with me because you disagree with me. Your not the sole voice of the forum,and you don't speak for everyone here! I was only stating my opinion,and it's obvious that you,and the previous poster are the most offended,and must be kids. You both act like it,as your posts are disrespectful,and unneccessary for all the other members here,especially since this is an Alizee forum! They neither provide any insight,nor do they convince me that this "is a good thing" as you've so eloquently told me. Haven't you wondered why everyone seems to overlook this fight,except you,and one other?

You're making a mockery of this site,and a fool of yourself at the same time! Take this to heart. I stated an OPINION,and you act like I shot your cat. I meant no harm,as I have seen a few "bash wars"as you put it (correctly called "flaming")on this site from a lot of members. Just because I'm new here,that doesn't give you full authority to say hateful,derogatory,and vulgar things to me! Rise above yourself,as you seem to be stuck on the idea that you're always right,even when wrong. It's OK to talk about things that are off-topic,just not on someone elses thread,or outside the off-topic catagory. Be organised with your thoughts,and the rest of the forum will be easier to follow.

I've been lurking here for three years off,and on looking to see some kind of spark of interest that might be able to help in some small way for the cause of Alizee,but stupid arguements,and all the off-topic chatter like this keep it from doing so!

She might not have met Alizée, but that was a "joke", unless your little irises didn't catch that fact.
It wasn't funny. I do have a sense of humour,but not a distorted one. Your irises don't catch anything,just your retinas.

It may not be a good song, and that I can agree, I despise mainstream, but the thing is that it sold.
That's because the music industry moguls are always trying to see what garbage they can push on kids that have no sense of appreciation for good music that isn't racist,sexist,sexually provocative(sleazy),or political in any way!

You've gleaned all that I know,and feel about music just from one post? You don't even know one thing about what type of music I listen to,much less what attitude I have of it! So you think that you're a professor of music,and psychology now? YOU are making this a very unwelcoming site,and disrespectfully so,as if YOU OWN IT,and I have no right to disagree with your unrealistic view of the world around you!

I thought that Jason Becker died of Lou Gherigs' disease in the early ninties. I guess I'm wrong(openly admitted).

Hell performing a cover song is more fun than performing your own song, and that I know all too well.
No "covering" songs is EASY! If you truly believe that playing someone elses songs is more fun,then you're no kind of musician.

Difficult to get your friends into Alizée? Join the rest of the party over there (points to the rest of the fucking forum*)

This site keeps going because of the off-topic and the assumptions.
If there was nothing to talk about but during her musical activeness, this would be a pretty fucking dead forum.
If you haven't noticed, she likes her breaks, and she likes them long.
With all the interesting things this forum holds you get to really see how people are, and you may even make a new friend along the way, ever try that? .
The forum I left did that. This is why it was off-line for over a year,and when it came back - it was missing a lot of the original content,and member along with it. All the off-topic talk killed it,as it lost interest. Comments like yours are helping to kill the joy of the internet - which wasn't invented for pissing matches.

Covering,or ramaking(as is known in the music business)is bullshit! The original writer,or performer(musician)already established the feeling,and the intent of the song when originally recorded!

Like Eddie Van Halen said -

"Fuck the cover tunes - I've done enough covers! They say that if you make it with an already proven hit that you're half way there. That's bullshit! You're not there! I'd rather bomb with my own songs,than make it with someone elses."

I'm a musician with over twenty seven years of musical experience(longer than most of the members here have been alive),and I've recorded with a lot of people in my day,and cover tunes are easy. Just trying to write your own tunes is hard enough - let alone trying to write for other people that you don't even know!

I never said she did.

If she did, this place would at least have more active members, because she's taking the time to get MORE FANS, and therefore with such promotions, we can have more discussions relevant to the ones you OH so LOVE!

So once again. I state.
Have a nice day, hope your life goes on well.
You think her music's shit? I'm not a fan of all her material,but I'd never say anything like that! I'm not against you,as I personally don't know you. You're obviously taking all that I say very hard. I'm sorry that you were so offended that you felt you had to rant on my account! This is an Alizee music appreciation site,or am I wrong? If this is an Alizee appreciation site,then I stand corrected. I think that it's best that we go back to the original topic,and leave the bashing,or flaming to PMs,so that the other members here can TRY to enjoy posting whatever they may in this thread.

I just want to ask this one question without having my ass handed to me: If Alizee were ugly - would anyone here(including myself)be so adoring?
