I think the performance below, the one in Italy I mentioned, is probably her best live performance of ML.

It does sound like her performance in Korea may have been influenced by a cold or something.

Her voice, it sounds... different... in a good sort of way. I'll have to say that I like the one you linked better too than most live performances for the same reason, I have nothing against lip syncing really but they don't feel "real" enough. I prefer her dances such as in this one and Ella, Elle l'a where she's moving naturally to the music, then when she adds that it's her singing seems more.. thoughtful of what the fans want to see, if that's the correct word for that context..

I am getting more and more sure she was sick in Japan, as this was the picture I associated with her sickness, and it is named "2003japon7jpgzt5" so it only makes sense. Would prefer if someone filled me in on the blanks though.

Well, Naft, one can't really tell if one is sick by just looking at a picture...

I thought it might be because it was a poor quality recording in the first place and then uploading to YT detracted further from the sound quality, but re-watching it now I've realised that the background music is of much better quality than her voice. Just can't think why that would be

It sounds to me like part of the "room" sound has gotten into the recording of her voice. The music was playback so they could just run a direct feed into the recording equipment without using a microphone. The voice was probably pulled off the live mixing console and thus they captured not only her voice, but also the room sound that would have gotten onto the microphone. That would naturally make it sound more muffled.

As to her being sick, I believe she was sick during her visit to Korea. Maybe someone else can verify that.

Nono, that's not what I mean either.

I'm saying, when I first lurked on these forums I stumbled upon just that picture (although this is a cut version cause I was too lazy to upload it, anyway you get my point) and someone was like:
" When was this taken" and then the reply was "This was when she was in Japan, she was actually sick at the time" (I'm using my own words, but something along those lines).

I think I see what you are saying Naft, but she must have been in Korea and Japan for awhile, and I doubt she was sick every single day she was there like you guys seem to be saying. She was most likely sick for only a few days in Korea and/or Japan, so we won't know exactly when she was sick and therefore won't know if she was sick in which pictures and videos...see what I'm saying?

I've mentioned in here before that some noted singers such as Madonna and Janet Jackson who both include a lot of dancing in their shows have said before that "You can have great singing or you can have great dancing, but you can't have both.".

I prefer great singing, Alizée has talent when it comes to dancing and can move fluently without even thinking of it. (Or so I'm led to believe)

I see what you're saying, but I think she was sick during the taking of the picture and this interview because I associated the picture with such an event, not because of how she looked in it.

She might not have been sick all the time, but she might've been the day of the performance/interview.

I see what you're saying now. Thanks for the clear up

As for her being sick she would sound a bit nasaly,which she does a tad bit
but that could be a million things.To me it just sounds like her live without the karaoke style voice track we are used to usually accompanying her,reminds me of her live En Concert voice just not nearly as fine tuned,recorded,remixed and so on.Anyway it is awesome to have different sounding performances.

I can imagine there are quite a few sub-par to Alizee' her management and fans live videos we will never see due to that what i consider too high standard.It would be kinda funny to see the bloopers.

Audiences over there are different,you see everytime she raises her hand how they react and whatnot right.You will know that is one of her trademarks back then to wave and can tell she isn't used to how they explode with adulation by her simple hand gesture.To me this only enhanced the performance with the giggles and delicious voice inflections.

Naft you mentioned the outfit but vague on your meaning there.Remembering back to when i first seen this video i thought it odd she wasn't in the ML outfit.Guessing one of many reasons why,one if that was a concert and not just one song then that may explain it,perhaps customs lost that suitcase for a day while the Korean dude borrowed it to bring home for his wife to wear that night,could be a million and one reasons...
