Default My Daily Blog :)

Well... I wanted to start this personal blog cause i feel free to talk whatever i want to.... So lets start! (Sorry for the typos i'm not english native)

Today was a good day actually, i started the second level of my french courses (2 out of 17 lol), i'm used to listen to Toc de Mac before i start with the day officially and it really motivates me. Talking about the french class, during the mean time i talked with my new teacher and she asked me "What do you do to learn french?" and answered "well... I always listen to a French singer called Alizée" and then i showed her one Alizée's song because i wanted to know if she recognize her and my teacher's expression was like "i know who's her and i'm impressed that you listen to her music!" but i don't really know if she knows Alizée or not. The class finished okay but i still prefer my first level teacher haha.

By the way, today i friend asked me how can i always listen to Alizée without getting tired and i didn't know how to answer, the reason is probably Alizée is the kind of singer i always wanted to listen to, her music is my musical taste in a nutshell, Mes Courants Electriques for me is the best album i've ever listened to because it's energizing and combines a lot of instruments at the same time (the case of Toc de Mac), every song is completely different to the other, coeur deja pris is magic and its video clips are awesome (i prefer A contre courant video cause it's like the typical musical video of those times performed in a abandoned building and i love that! <3) so... Maybe the answer is that i ALWAYS listen to Alizée cause her music match with me and she as a person seems kind and sweet! (i write this lines cause i read jessica's letters and i really loved how she described Alizée's personality <3)

finally i want to say that i love this place, it lets me connect with Alizée (the person) even though i don't contribute a lot compared to other members, but i'm okay : D

à bientôt!

(Btw i love this piano cover of Toc de Mac http://soundcloud.com/velectrody/ali...e-megalizeecom) bye bye!

Story 1 (6/9/18)--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hello, i want to tell you guys about a story that have happened to me like 3 month ago:


first of all this is my actual collection of Alizée: http://www.dropbox.com/s/6uj9h9oluxq...24028.jpg?dl=0 (i know is pretty petit compared to other members collections)

I have a petit story with Mes courants electriques. When i bought Gourmandises my parents couldn't understand why a teenager would want a disk in 2018, back then every day before gourmandises arrived at my house my parents asked me the same thing, yeah it was pretty annoying, then they stopped days after the disc arrived but with Mes courants electriques was a bit different because when i bought it on Amazon my father didn't notice that he bought 2 copies instead one and he was suppeeeeer mad hahah, we couldn't return the second copy bought by mistake, the times passed and both arrived, i remember that day cause when i opened the box with the albums one of them was supeeeeeeeeeeeeer broken:

1.-http://www.dropbox.com/s/8r53erqzsdv...24145.jpg?dl=0

2.-http://www.dropbox.com/s/6o95x6apzql...24153.jpg?dl=0

But the other one was in pretty good conditions (the one you can see in the first link) this would sound rude but i'm happy that we bought a second copy by mistake because if the broken one arrives i would cry a lot, haha my father wants to return the broken MCE but maybe he will never do it.

this is my petit story (if my father doesn't return it by the time i'm gonna move to USA i'll grab the disk as mine haha, that's the only thing valuable there)

Default Yay !

Bonsooooooir !

wow today was a weird day.... I don't know why but since i finished duolingo and i'm not practicing either french nor piano i feel my life incomplete :c

what im gonna do is to start another learning languages app because i don't care if i only reach the daily goal but i need something that makes me feel like i'm progressing and not wasting my time hahaha

Yesterday i decided that im not going to care about those things i can't change about my body but i'll try to change those that can be changed c: !

By the way since Alizee released her songs in spotify this is what i listen to normally: http://gyazo.com/ba077cebc6dce70a2a37bed314b12a65

i'm super happy that Alizee did something related about her singer career, i hope this can be the beginning of something huge to come ! i'm someone who believes a lot in hope so i'm sure something positive will turn out of this

I will help as much as i can to support her c: : dance:

Bye bye ! Baisers !

Hello ! i'm back ! i wanted to take a break because i was posting so much...

Now that i know more french, i started listening other artist (Louane) even though i really love Alizée i want to tell you guys my opinion about who is better !

First of all we can't decide that one of the two is the best cause their music genre is not the same and for me doesn't make sense to put one above the another but i'm gonna compare which way is better to listen each one.

Louane:


Anne Peichert (born 26 November 1996), known by her stage name Louane Emera or simply Louane, is a French singer and actress.

She is best known for being a semi-finalist in the second season of The Voice: la plus belle voix in France with Louis Bertignac as a coach. She later got a role in La Famille Bélier which won her a César Award.

Okay that was a little summary about who is Louane and i have to say that i just have listened her album "Chambre 12".

Also the thing that most impress me is her voice, she has a really good voice and her songs have catchy rhythms, the songs i like are:

Jour 1:

https://open.spotify.com/track/13lXv...Sc2XBNn3RkcqyQ

Alien:

https://open.spotify.com/track/1qgDv...QgWv7Jlyvu7GpA

Maman:

https://open.spotify.com/track/5gsIG...S0OD7u7xQb30Eg

Tourne:

https://open.spotify.com/track/2nrGt...SMy95u3cLF7XHg

I feel she's more into singing, as i said she has a really good voice, very unique and pleasant but i think i would listen to her more than i would watch her performances on youtube, she's not someone who likes to dance on her performances, she just stick with the beat and for me that's enough, she doesn't have to dance to become a good artist.

And now talking about Alizée, i would say that i prefer watch her performances because she moves in a really special way, her voice is good for the kind of music she played, she doesn't need a voice like Louane, she has advantages like she knows how to dance, she also knows how to encourage the public while she's performing and for me is better to watch her than just listen to her music, even though i love to listen to Toc de mac.

To sum it all up in two sentences:

i prefer to Listen to louane

And i prefer to watch Alizée


Well, that's it, i wanted to post something and this was my idea, i hope you guys like it ! <3

Thanks for the post and being so honest.

I think Alizee has a "pretty good' singing voice. I can think of a ton of singers that have a better singing voice than Alizee. I can also think of a lot of bands whose music is better than Alizee's. I don't even like pop music very much.

For me, Alizee is in a category of her own. It's her voice (talking or singing) matched with her physical looks, the way she moves, her personality, her facial expressions, her sense of humor, her loyalty and other characteristics that all are wrapped up in a little 5 foot 2 inch package that makes her stand alone in her own category.

Because of this, I would rather watch Alizee perform than any other person on earth.

I think it is great that you are expanding your musical horizons!

One of the major reasons I prefer Alizee's singing to her dancing is that when singing the camera moves in close and we can see her face clearly with every nuance of her expressions. When Alizee is dancing, the camera shot is at a distance and not at all as personal. With the long shots, she could be any dancer, but with the close-up, she is all Alizee. When dancing, the choreography is unimaginative and the dancing mediocre, but I really do enjoy her singing.

Someone on Alizee America brought Louane to my attention. I think that was about 2 years ago. Since then I've become a big fan of hers. I'm really grateful to whoever that was. Sorry, I don't remember your name.

I wonder if it might have been me who introduced you to her. Everyone knows I'm a big fan of Les Enfoires and one of the songs they had in the show in 2016 was Jour 1. I'm not sure if I knew of this song before then.

I really enjoyed the version they had in the Les Enfoires show too. They added a little bit to the end of it with Renaud Capuçon a French classical violinist. and Marie-Agnès Gillot , a French ballet dancer and choreographer with the Paris Opera Ballet, joining in.

I did a little research in our forum and found out it was through Les Enfoires that I first heard the song Jour 1 and doing some research on that song was how I found out about Louane. If you look under the second "EDIT" in post 55 you'll see what I'm talking about.

http://alizeeamerica.com/forums/show...?t=7964&page=6

In a post shortly after that I said "Now I can't get Jour 1 off my mind." and I'm sure it's after seeing Louane sing it, I came to love her and the Les Enfoires versions.

We were comparing other artists against Alizee. The gist of the discussion was that we enjoyed other artists, but had difficulty finding one as attractive as Alizee. At that point, someone who doesn't frequently post comments suggested Louane and posted her singing Jour1. That was the first I'd heard of her. I commented that I enjoyed her singing, but was not attracted to her as much as to Alizee. Immediately after my comment, you made a similar comment, though not as critical of Louane, so I remember that you were not the one who first brought her to my attention. Although you did post the same video, Jour 1, sometime later. I tried to find the exact post but grew tired of looking for it.
