That's how it usually works, though the press release doesn't actually say anything about it.

She's back. It's official. That is the announcement.

[jesuisRusse]

Oooh, eleventh september..
Cool
So that's today..
Is there anything in English?
Is http://www.alizee-officiel.com/ gonna be her official?

[espire]

There's nothing about the site that says it can't be Alizée's future site. It's registered to Sony BMG, and everything else looks good. Additionally, after an official announcement and a release window, it's very unlikely that moi-alizee.com has anything to do with the new Alizée.

We can corroborate this with the alizee-officiel of Myspace. The fact that they both exist and are possibly official, but with the same name, means that they're both more likely to be official. I guess I never knew moi-alizee.com except through archive.org, so there isn't much for me to lose, but moi-alizee is a little more unique a name than alizee-officiel.

True, but it's also got an association with Moi . . . Lolita and Alizée seems to want to get away from that.

Nurvonic mentioned in another thread that I should bring up the full, possibly final version of "Mademoiselle Juliette" in this thread. I've already received some PMs about it, so here's a link to download it, along with the cleanest version of "Fifty Sixty" I've heard so far:

I originally received this link from Capn, so if you're wondering where it came from, ask him or her!

Anyway, the big difference with this version of "Juliette" is the inclusion of a man speaking and birds chirping at the beginning, and then a beautiful synth layer in the background that plays for the first 45 seconds, fleshing out the whole experience and making it feel fuller. This song will make an AWESOME first single!

Communiqué - 11 Septembre 2007 - Alizée
(11/09/2007)

Voir la page de l'artiste


Après avoir signé il y a quelques mois avec RCA/SonyBmg, Alizée est en train de finaliser son nouvel album "Psychédélices" qui paraîtra au mois de Novembre prochain.

Le premier single "Mademoiselle Juliette" sera présenté aux radios durant la dernière semaine de septembre. Et le clip sera disponible un mois plus tard.

Pour son 3ème album, Alizée a notamment choisi de collaborer avec Bertrand Burgalat, Daniel Darc, Oxmo Puccino, Jérémy Chatelain ou encore Jean Fauque pour les textes.

Alizée est absente des bacs depuis 3 ans et affiche déjà 6 millions de disques vendus à travers le monde.

L'artiste qui est sereine et impatiente de présenter son album, finit actuellement de préparer son retour dans une ambiance protégée, liée au vol d'un titre en studio et à la rumeur "totalement infondée, mensongère et choquante" lancée par la presse et les émissions people d'une guerre avec Mylène Farmer ou de la présence dans l'album d'une chanson malveillante à son egard.

-------------------

In short: Mlle. Juliette is the first single, and will be on the radio the last week of September. The music vid will be out a month later, and the album (Psychédélices) will release in November.

Woot!

Fifty // Sixty is just at 128kbps rather than 320, and Mlle Juliette is the same but with the audio from the Moi Lolita music video tacked on to the beginning, and trailing on for about a minute, and it's not even on the right key. This is but a clever ruse, sir!

Capn, explain yourself!

[Neiteio]

Oops!

I've just been informed that's not a fuller version, but simply the original version with the beginning of the "Moi... Lolita" video tacked on front. Apparently the bitrates have been changed around as well.

I... I don't know why somebody would edit the music as such, but it does sound good that way.

So yeah, I'm guessing the original leaked version is closer to what we'll get. Nothing wrong with that, although the added synth layer sounded good...

EDIT: Beat to the punch by the same guy who corrected me via PM!
