I really liked your post Roman. Very inciteful. I'm still not sure that Alizee was commenting on her own previous stuff or popular music in general and making sure that what she puts out is the best she can. I also hope that she is not minimizing her previous work because it was definitely quality and although her early stuff was pre-teen and teen experiences as we all know melodically, vocally and arrangements were pure genious. I think I see how perfectionistic she is and determined to grow as a music artist as most important above commercial success. I respect her for that a great deal. I also heard her say that she does see commercial success as important and that both can be accomplished without sacrificing quality or selling out for pure commercial success. I am also not convinced that anyone she has worked with since MF/LB are as talented as them in any way. To be fair it is hard to make the comparison since her musical style in Psych and especially EDS are quite different. Also my personal bias against electronica probably taints my objectivity. Did you catch her statement about working with professional production crew this time. Kind of sounded like a dig at Jeremy as not being a talented professional. I probably read more into it than was there though.

Great posts, guys. And for what it's worth, I'm a musician and I find all Alizée's work from all 3 previous albums to be quite good. I consider her an artist, even if she doesn't play an instrument or write the music and lyrics. She brings something to the music with her voice and how she chooses to use it. And of course there is the way she presents the work in live performance.
On Psych and UEDS, she influences how the music will sound and makes choices about the songs. And I'm sure she's giving her input during the mixing process. She deserves some credit for all that. She has nothing to be ashamed of and everything to be proud of. From what I've heard, UEDS will be quite good too. Just ask C-4 what he thinks. He's a musician too, and he's been in the business for years. Edit: I forgot to say, I really liked this interview.

Lefty, thanks for your comments, I liked this interview a lot, too. Unlike yourself and C4, I'm totally not a musician, but I still get a buzz from hearing how songs and albums came together.
 Fall06, I was hoping you'd find those Michaels! Glad you did.

I don't care about the translation either but not everyone here reads French. Readable scans, then I or someone will translate.
