I'm sorry if I forgot to thank the following: Acadieman, Ben, FireCanine, Jep, Ruroshen, Toc De Mac, & Tomtentp You're all great!!! I wish I discovered that song on or before Alizee's birthday. I've listened to it for several times now. It still gives me goosebumps every time I listen to it. There is hope as long as we have dedicated fans like you!

In addition to me living in the number one city for most Alizee look-ups in the world, I contacted the record label and the French Embassy in New York and Washington DC to see what it would take to have her perform here. I even sent letters to local venues for her to come. So, sidelines my ass. How'd ya like THEM apples?

I was offering a new idea, idea that worked for an anonymous singer from a third world country whose accomplishment at her own country or anywhere else prior to this, pale in comparison to that of Alizee's. If you compare their resumes side-by-side, it's not even close. And we're just talking about the accomplishments here (awards, record sales, etc). We are not even talking about their INTANGIBLES (popularity, name-recognition, looks, dancing ability, etc). And that's what I'm trying to present to all: What are we doing wrong? Logic would tell you that it would have been a lot easier to promote here someone from a Western country like Alizee, given her talents, proven record sales around the world, popularity, etc. There's a lot of people here that I respect and whose opinions I value. People like Scruffy, Lefty, Doc, Ben, C-4, MYGOGT and some others whose works, tireless efforts and well-intentioned opinions have made this site worth coming back to. Given your prior work, if true, would have earned you my respect easily as well. Unfortunately, you decided to present your opinion in a dismissive way. And now, not only did you insult me, you also insulted all the other recent and new fans here. WAY TO GO!!! Last edited by Jake04; 09-14-2010 at 02:20 AM.. |

Hehe, always amusing to watch a completly unneccesary fight arise from simple missunderstanding, a negative tone and swift judgement.
Deja Vu all over it! Anyways, I don't think you can compare the cases as easily. Charice have a great voice. In her case that's what you need to market and that's what you need to concentrate on, which means anything where she sings (well) is a good promotion. With Alizée it's complicated. There are so many talents that needs to be marketed, she even have two different eras/avatars! What to concentrate on?? If we want to say that Alizée as a whole package is what needs to be marketed then virtually any video, performance, appearance or anything at all considering Alizée is a good promotion, right? If it's just Alizée the musician we need to market then we need to concentrate on new era Alizée since Laurant isn't her producer anymore and lolita isn't gonna be there when people look her up. However, I don't think that the question is about how to promote her. The question is if she even want to be world famous in such a degree and such a "way" that we suggests. Maybe it's even so that she prefers to have fans of Alizée the musician rather than fans of Alizée the Lolita. That's the idea I get from her statements anyways. So, who are we doing the promotion for? Us or her?

I the past we have taken a look at many other foreign singers (Nelly Furtado to be exact, with others included) who had caused a stir in America and their original country. Coming out of all studies with no new ideas I thought I would put this down before it got too far. My apologies to you and others I offended. (Just got a notification. Bomb threat in PARIS, FRANCE EIFFEL TOWER: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/39177318/?GT1=43001) Anyway: They are true. If you ask around and get a feel for the other projects we have undertaken you would have understood my statement. So in conclusion: Sorry if that came over wrongly, I hope we can get past this minor set back. After all, we all want the same thing here. Last comment: For constructive criticism, although she may have been not so popular in her country, Alizee is. You said: "What are we doing wrong? Logic would tell you that it would have been a lot easier to promote here someone from a Western country like Alizee, given her talents, proven record sales around the world, popularity, etc." Clearly that is not the case, for now we have Charice in America and Alizee isn't. Being the mean boss: What I want to know is what action you will take you put your idea to the test. Answer that with a REAL ACHIEVABLE ANSWER, and we will follow you every step of the way.
