Alizée in a split-leg blue glittery full length formal dress at some high society social function in Paris, a black leather motor bike outfit, motorcycle/car/river boat chase(s) through Paris, etc. Oh, it could have been the awesomest thing ever put to film!

I agree that J.B.G. would have been perfect for a video. I just wonder if they thought that being 15 years old, Alizée might not be old enough to fit the part of a James Bond Girl at some high society function in Paris. Or possibly they didn't want to create an image that would interfere with the "Lolita" image they were using to market her. Or they simply thought the song itself was too weak for a single. I don't know, just some food for thought.

Personally, I think the En Concert version is much better than the album version. It really increased my appreciation of the song quite a bit.

For me En concert version is very very good, much better than album. Before I saw En concert version it was just simple song, without deeper meaning. But I realised that J.B.G is great song with that dance.

with you there dude. i LOVE the en concert album. my favorite also! though with other artists, i prefer the studio album, with Alizee though, i prefer to hear her live.

my only thing is that i wish JPvA was on the en concert album.
i know its on the DVD, but i wish it was on the CD as well.

I only like the sound of a few of her songs better live actually

Preferably the ones where she doesn't attempt organized choreography on.
The moves take so much crap out of her singing potential.

sadly true. i mean, just look at the JEAM performance. it was good live! but the dance was no where near what it was when she's lip syncing it.

Sorry. Even if it is released that day it'll be overshadowed.
9/9/09 is a special date though for us Soshies.
9 girls, 9 weeks, 9 awards.

Of course it's not going to be released on that day.

The last I heard was that the album would be released sometime in November. If this is true, I wonder if we can expect a single and a video in September or October...

I hope so, I guess I am growing impatient.

yes that would be a bad date for anyone to release anything other than Soshie and Ensiferum you'd be stupid to compete with them



anywho there is no official release date
