Memory Lane

[Scruffydog777]

Well we have over 15 years of videos of Alizee since she has become a star and that is not to mention the videos of her in school and at other times. I'm suggesting we form another thread, which I would suggest calling something like "Memory Lane" where people can post old official videos, fan videos or what ever that depict maybe a favorite song, remix, fan video or just a favorite moment and I'd like it to be a sticky thread. Do we have something like this already?

I was looking for an old L E video for another thread, when I came across this one. It had been posted sometime ago; I think well before the split and had been taken down for copyright violations. I believe it had been named Alizee - Goodbye Columbus. I had copied it and reposted it later with a generic name so it hopefully wouldn't be taken down. It's one I enjoy and I'm reposting it here, so others who I'm sure haven't seen it, might enjoy it too.

Alizée 2001 Les Enfoires.

Condensed version all Alizée.



Full Version

[alizeefan]

hmm not sure i get this exactly so pardon moi if i get this wrong but it seems like a nice way to re-discover through others eyes and hearts . ALS the condensed version is great and thanks for also including her full . I don't recall ever seeing that condensed , though like SD said so many years of videos hard to remember them all . I am surprised of scruff selection . I'd always memory lane Amsterdam i must have watched it for a week straight lol . . but the new Nickelodeon is pretty amazing as being somewhat unedited and no flashy effects imho mo beta than others ( its like look i already know her name you dont have to shine text across her face . . . ( we really need to form an Alizee's Oceans Eleven and steal all the unedited performance videos ) . Now joking aside ( not ) over all the ones i watch most or listen to are my remixes of ML Techno and Jordyn Taylors - Shake It ( i can hear AJ's voice singing it and the accent would be mmmazing to really hear )

Credit goes to you Scruffy for making his MLT mix as that inspired me to want to mix .

Therefore my " memory lane " goes to



PS im still perplexed by how there are two versions of your video one full length of the song and the other which is linked above not being the whole song yet you cant recall how that happened.Its like youtube cut your video short...

Well what someone posts doesn't necessarily have to be a favorite. I was mainly thinking of posting stuff that maybe others haven't seen, especially newer fans or maybe just posting a picture, a commercial, an interview, that we haven't seen in a while. I was looking for a video to use in another thread when I stumbled upon that Goodby Columbus one.

It could be just a moment in a video where something struck someone's fancy. A moment you'd like to remember or discuss, but you don't really feel it's worth the bother of starting a seperate thread for each thing. Here is another one of those little moments.

First of all thank you!
I don't remember posting a second version of this and not deleting the original. I've posted two versions of a video before; in one case, several weeks after posting the original, I changed A Six Pack of Alizée and put a 2 after it which is what I usually do if I don't delete the second one. When I changed it, the first one had a good number of hits, so I left it posted because I thought people may have favorited it and would lose it; not knowing a second version was posted.

However I don't recall having 2 versions of the Moi Lolita remix. I'm sure I never used the full remix in this case. I always look at these videos in addition to just liking to watch them myself, as a way of promoting Alizée and using the whole remix would just be too long I think to ask a prospective fan to watch.

Along that same line of thought, whenever I come across a prospective fan, I usually show them my Six pack of Alizée video, because even if they don't like one song it quickly moves on to the next.

You're most welcomed , it is very interesting and i've enjoyed the stories above thanks all for jumping in .
Great subject as it's good to learn about each other and again see through others hearts <3 I could be wrong on the video being on your channel , perhaps as was the case years back with all the various Alifan-tubes . Someone maybe had taken your video and added to it then uploaded to one of the many now disabled Alizfan channels . . I'm pretty sure i have that longer version somewhere , as i recall now having saved - then watching both and wondering why one was short . Unfortunately my files are a mess and not with me to be able to access for awhile but ill get back to you on that . Also if i ever complete my MLT , my process when creating and before is to watch the videos im mixing in sync at the same time . Then i get an idea of what clips to use before hand , anyway watching your video and mine same time in sync , some parts of yours catch my eye and some of mine - as in they make a good re-mix-mix with your permission i'll eventually get to that too .

The promo-video you made may want to title that as so and explain how you use it , may come in handy for others to do the same with if they know . I saved it now so even if im not able to be online for those times i can show em . Really good idea for a video and if that isn't already a topic would make a good one - fan made promo vids .

Yes she had a bit of giggle in her voice , i often wonder during the times when it isn't obvious - what exactly she is laughing about . Like your video it could be a number of things , that would make an interesting mix of clips of her giggles ( i love her laugh ) yet moreso interesting would be her watching it then commenting on the ones she remembers - oh yeah - this or that was funny . .

I love those waves too , i wonder what her motives are there how it all started . Like i'd guess some people she recognizes , friends , fans who she seen recently , some waves maybe are for the going crazy fans so to give em a tip of a hat and calm them down a bit . As in o k relax i see you stop jumping around , your gonna hurt yourself or someone lol . . Maybe people wave to her ? Interesting side subject . . perhaps another good idea for a video mix or topic here and be a good thing to ask her about too .

Nice thread Scruffy!

Well as far as fanvids go the one that really got me most was Return made by Orion back in the day before Alizée returned to us in December 2007. I never actually came across that vid until 2010 myself though and unfortuantly I can't post it here either because it's not available anymore but I remember it well because it consisted of clips from the Gourmandises video which is my all time favourite Alizée music video and it had a great soundtrack to it aswell from Laura Pausini, it just blew my mind.. it was like looking into a looking glass.

Anyway here's the song and english translation



I am coming back to you despite my pride.
I am coming back because there is no other choice.
Remembering the days on another latitude,
Visiting the places where I would see you,
Playing gestures and words which I have lost.
I am coming back to you from silence which is in me.

Tell me if there is still for me
Another opportunity, another emotion.
If you are still there
One more new and fresh song.
Tell me if there is now anything of us still inside of your eyes.

Oh, no...your eyes...

I am coming back to you because I still love you,
I am coming back to you against the wind.
I am coming back to you because I need you
To breathe out the anxiety,
To feel your strong hands on me
And not to feel myself always so fragile

Tell me if there is still for me
Another opportunity, another emotion.
Tell me, if you are still there and more
Our song which is sounding again.
Tell me, if there is now anything of us still inside of your eyes.

Oh, no...

If you are still there
Another song fresh and new.
Tell me, if there is now anything of us still inside of your eyes.
Oh, no... your eyes...

Just tell me if there is and I will come back to you

Orion does great work. Laura Pausini (who I never had heard of before) has a beautiful voice and that's a great song, so I sent Orion a pm to see if he still has that video. I'd really like to see it.

That Laura Pausini video you posted is a great video in itself; beautiful woman; beautiful voice; very good video and I wlll check out some more of her songs later, but I already know what's at the end of that journey. I will enjoy her and her performances, but in the end, I will be asking myself what sets Alizee apart from so many other beautiful singers with so many other beautiful songs? Sometimes I get the feeling the answer is very complex; other times I think it's very simple. I'd love to find again what I found with Alizee, but I've been so fortunate in what I found with her, I do feel blessed for having her come into my life and I feel it's unfair to ask for too much and I'm still enjoying the hell out of what we have today.

This was a performance I liked because the crowd was so into it; in fact after the 1:40 mark, there are points where they just about drown her out.

This video stimulates memories .... This is one of the old Matrix's videos, seems to me. That man was really amazing.
I remember ... ... several years ago when he was still active Alizee fan on youtube, I used to watch some of his videos. And he was indefatigable, he would made sometimes even a few Alizee fan videos per day, so that in a few years made them a couple of thousand, I think.
I watched many of his videos, and they were a great inspiration to me in thinking about Alizee.
Really a good find, ... brings nice old memories.

From the video: 2:20 What are you all staring at? ... 2:33 I am married to the fans. You are my life, voila!

This small part appeared in an interview with Alizee for the Belgium TV, Alizée - 2003-10-12 - Interview - News Report - Rode Loper - Belgium video with English subtitles at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H9rK57OLmNM


Regarding Laura Pausini song,
there is a fan video with that song. It's Pour Alizée at http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x1m...r-alizee_music (select Quality 380 for viewing)


And finally my recommendation for the Memory Lane. It's Papillon de Nuit from the time before her career:



Even in this performance it's already seen that she's a future star!
Just see her courageous.

It seems that Matrix revived his passion for Alizee. See at his youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/user/MatrixFactoryGuy
