I’m still trying to put all of this into some kind of “overall context”, and so far I have not got enough “info” to do so…

Kind of “perplexing”, but also pretty darn “cool”…

Will need a lot more “intel” before I can come to any “definintive” decision about this one…



But, it was SO GOOD to see her “out and about”, doing her “thing”….

This again gives me a glimmer of hope for more of her in the future.
For someone who has just had her second child, she DOES look GREAT, but to me, she always has done, regardless…

These little appearances could really help her, if she chose the right songs.
Yeps, Scruffy, absolutely, she does need a "manager", and a good one at that, regardless of her future career path. Unfortunately, I get the feeling that they would have to be pretty “special”, in several “key” ways. They would have to be “strong” enough, to provide appropriate “direction”, but suitably “tactful” in their application of said “direction”. “Compassion”, a “sense of humour” and a “thick skin”, so to speak, would also be helpful, desirable qualities also, methinks, for, there are times that they would have to say “No”.

So, we need to find Alizée a “manager” with the: “heart of an Angel”; “the “eye” of a Great Artist; and; the temperament of a “Drill Instructor”…

This… could maybe take a “wee while”…

With regard to selection of the appropriate material/songs, again, Scruffy, you are “spot on”. The right songs, at the right places, at the right times, would boost her public “visibility”, and “standing”, immensely, not to mention giving her a welcome “morale” and “confidence” boost…

She really does need that "somebody" at her side, who has the "balls", so to speak, to tell her what is working and what is not...

No professional singer is above working with a voice coach.
To me, a good “voice” is like an “exotic” weapon, say, for example, a "relic"sword…

To be effective, it has to be kept “cleaned”, “honed”, and regularly “tended”, to keep it in “optimal” condition. And, even then, no matter if it is the best, most well tended sword in the world, if you do not know how to use it, it is just a very fancy “paperweight”…

Every “Swordsman” needs a “master” to help maintain their skill level, “perfect” their “form”, and teach them new “arts”…

As does every "professional" singer, who is serious about their career…

In the end, it is all down to what Alizee’s plans for the future are, with regard to this area, if, indeed, there are any plans…

To be honest, I would have to see the whole of her TV appearance, and get the whole “backstory” behind it, before I could even make any kind of guess with regard to what is happening…

Anyhow…

She looked great, and, it was really cool to see her “on stage” again…

<sigh>

Who knows, what the future may bring…
