After checking out SEXTO, which I like but don't see as standing out from thousands of other recordings by young women, I went back to "Ma Priére" to see if there was anything in it that predicted Alizée's great success. She's attractive, but not more than many other girls. She does have an outstanding voice, but so do many talent contestants. She made an excellent choice of music. She has a lot of self-confidence and an excellent stage presence. I like the little dance step she takes at the bottom of the stairs. And then there is something more: the X-factor. I have watched this video dozens of times and never grow tired of it. Having said all that, I would have been cautious in my prediction. She could become a big star--I would say--but I wouldn't guarantee it. And then came Myléne Farmer.
