Indeed, otherwise something like what happened at 31:32 https://youtu.be/Cbg8r4tALzM?t=1892 after the Vogue cover could have happened with Alizée after her La Isla Bonita cover.

What a strange feeling.
I have known Madonna since she became popular, and over the years I have encountered her work many times whether I heard her song on the radio or watched some of her videos on TV or even before she was often in the newspapers.
You may like her work or not but the fact is that she is a world-class superstar.
Despite all that, when I watch that TV show dedicated to her, I feel like Madonna is a guest on a show dedicated to Alizee.

Indeed. Fact is, Alizée's performance of La Isla Bonita on that show has been watched over 200 million times, while the rest of that show is hardly known, despite Madonna herself performing multiple of her songs on that same stage and being interviewed in it.

I think Madonna is incredibly talented, though I don't like some of her views outside of entertainment. It was when I was looking for one of Madonna's songs, that I discovered Alizée.

Someone had mentioned in the "cover" thread, that people doing covers of La Isla Bonita thought it was Alizée's song

Good video!

Is it just a coincidence that "Idealiser" sounds like Alizée?

Actually, I’ve (I think at least) always thought it seems to be a song that relates to Alizée’s life very strongly...

But these French lyrics... Do they always even know for themselves what they mean by their lyrics?!

Well Mylene Farmer's songs often have double entendres, but this is not an MF song and I think it's fairly straight forward, except for the title.

I had a girl who used to live in Paris do several interpretations for me and she helped me with this. This is I think a fairly accurate account of what the song said;

""Idealiser"
She (Mylene) is alone on the ground
flowing in alcohol
the veneer is cracking
under the idol
Powder faces
dressed in silk
that which hurts and that we leave behind
It's not a parade
of all nighters
Snow White (Alizée?) exhibited
to the archangels (It's interesting to note that when Christophe Willem sings this line during the SAGA show, Alizee smiles)
It's snowing in downtown
late seventies
Time is of the autumn
unsurprisingly
Idealiser (Alizée?) a broken past
not realizing
she (MF) is no longer there
Idealiser (Alizee)
makes herself beautiful
back stage
planning to go away and not return
The leap into the darkness (Alizee leaving MF/LB)
The small club kid (Alizee)
does not love the day (She is no longer happy with MF/LB)
Idealiser (Alizee)
Just supposes
She dared everything
and to her asked (Mylene Farmer.)
One last kiss (So she wanted a kiss goodbye from Mylene.)".

As I mentioned, a lot of people, especially MF fans thought this was directed at Mylene. The writer of the song came out and said it was about a woman who had drug problems and if I remembered the story right, she killed herself, but he never gave a a name and at the time, Alizee was not being talked about very kindly by MF fans. I think Mylene Farmer international was the big fan site for her back then though like Alizee, she probably had several.

The new video has a slightly weird title, it’s a reference to one song by Madonna (We all know Alizee loves Madonna) but the title is intended for people who don’t know Alizee, maybe curiosity will intrigue them to discover her.
In the video, I also inserted a bit of promotion for AAF.
The song that accompanies the video may be more for the girl you love than for Alizee, but you never know maybe Greg decides to make a romantic dinner for Alizee and show this video to Alizee, I wouldn’t mind.
Anyway I hope you like it.

I think this is one of your best videos. Very well done!

I like the way too that you got in the plug for AlizeeAmerica.

I thought no one noticed.
Here is a promo image below if anyone knows how to use it usefully.
I think it's with a transparent background
