But hey, I'm in the same boat. She could release a screamo, heavy metal, or a capella album, and I'd still go out and buy it.

Heavy metal Alizee. Dude, that would kill! On a more realistic note, this album has grown tremendously on me in recent months. 14 Decembre, Grand Central, Factory Girl... the composer, forget his name, is pretty good.

Just discovered that each of those songs I listed have different composers. Interesting.

If Alizée did the vocals on a dubstep track I would have to buy it. She can sing on electronic music tracks and it would be great to hear her voice in stuff like this track for instance:

or maybe even on dirtier dubstep, but i'm not sure her voice would really suit this sort of style:

Yup! I'm fans of both Skrillex and Mt Eden. I think her voice goes along very good with it, but yeah, Skrillex is HEAVY dubstep, so I don't know about that, haha. If the rumors are true, it seems she's "going back to her roots." I really would like to see her do more in this genre, but that's probably just me and a few select others. Avid/original fans I'm sure enjoyed the album, but it's not their style. It's a shame for me :/

So, I used to lurk these forums but hadn't checked them since shortly after Psych (which I loved); hadn't even realized a new album has come and apparently gone quietly while I was away. Oh well, guess you can't expect U.S. marketing for Alizee sadly.

Checking iTunes US version I see Factory Girl album available; nothing called UEDS is there. I'm assuming it's just an English album name, but before I purchase could anyone verify for me that the songs are the same as the French version? If not I'll just have to get a proper CD mailed out again.

I don't want to end up with something like the (imo) terrible English songs I got on my version of MCE. At least both the French and English were on there, but even though they were "bonus" tracks just having to skip the English all the time annoyed me.

Thanks in advance!

Welcome, Pauly.

There was a thread about the Factory Girl album iTunes. (cliquez)

We never got to the bottom of anything, but it seems like it might be an illegal distribution of the album. And as Azhiri pointed out, the preview for the song Grand Central is actually Limelight (and they're listed as having the same total runtime); so if you purchase the album from iTunes you may very well end up with two copies of Limelight and no Grand Central.

You should definitely buy the actual CD, IMO.
