Maybe if we start posting it on her sites (FB, Myspace, etc), who knows? Also, it won't hurt to let our friends in France know as well.
Your right about Lena. I was just checking out her video. Great stage presence, not quite as good as Alizee, but she is good.

And they (Germany) just made it official. Lena will defend her title next year. I really believe next year will be the perfect time for Alizee to reconsider joining Eurovision. Germany is just next door!

Jake04: I don't think you realize how much of a laughing stock Eurovision is in some circles. I'd say over 80% of the songs in the competition is total garbage (some countries even send in joke entries). Do you really want her to be associated with acts like this:



I'll give you that it is one of the most watched shows in Europe. What you might not know is that a lot of people (especially young people, 20-30 something, which I believe is the target audience for Alizée) get together with their friends, drink alcohol and laugh at all the shitty music. It has become kind of the thing to do. I can't take any of the artists that willfully compete in Eurovision seriously anymore, and I hope she never enters. In fact, I'm sure that she will never enter 'cause I think she's very aware of the status that the Eurovision has these days.

Yes, it's true that ABBA, Gall, Dion and some other won something on Eurovision, but it was quite long time ago.
Nowadays, Eurovision Song Contest is a show, not a place for a good music (with rare exceptions) that people watch all over the Europe. It is to be popular and to make money, not to promote musicians.
I believe that any serious musician wouldn't ever consider taking part in this Contest. Young ones, starting career take a part in national eliminations as they have nothing to lose, but a great chance for a promotion.

Yah so I don't know why people want ALizee to be in Eurovision, it will hurt what she already has.

I'd honestly say that tops Alizee's performances of late. Alizee is not a great live singer, and definitely a far cry from where she used to be.

Honestly here in my geographical area what she has are people requsting her on radio stations, people playing her on jukeboxes, she is being played in clubs in Milwaukee, she is played on the radio and video stations in Mexico everyday, UEDS is a hit in Mexico and among the latins in Orlando. She actually has a lot man and will have more too jung.

I back that up. Dude UEDS is definitely a hit in Mexico. Mercenaries said it was in the top10 albums for a couple radio charts and stuff or something. Forgot what he said. But I don't know whether she is more popular now or when she was in Psych era there.

I don't think UEDS has sold as many albums worldwide as Psych did in just Mexico if that says anything.
