Oh no, you found some bad reviews of an album, it's not like you can find good and bad reviews of fucking everything right?

I'm quite sure most fans are quite aware of her situation, but thanks anyway for being such a hero and taking "responsibility" by spreading even more shit into these forums. I'm really not sure what you hope to achieve by making me "aware" of these reviews? Is knowing that the general public does not listen to her supposed to make me enjoy 5 more or less, or do you want me to run around the streets putting stickers on peoples cars screaming to everyone to buy her album?

This is exactly why I don't post much on forums, people really can't accept where she is now and you can't go 2 pages without someone bitching about how she isn't acting like that, dancing like this and oh my god I wish she would stop getting tattoos even though it's quite obvious at this point that she doesn't give a fuck.

And no I'm not upset because of some bad reviews, it's you people circulating them, outweighing the good ones, and constantly poisoning this community with ridiculous amounts of pessimism. I really don't want to listen to Je veux bien and start thinking, oh no, will this be sung on TV anytime soon? Will she have a concert?

Just enjoy the music, jesus christ

The French are in their own little world when it comes to music. I've realized this ever since I started following Alizee. Have you ever taken a look at the Billboard charts for France? Remember René la Taupe at the top of their charts?

I don't think it's that surprising that Alizee would struggle with album sales in France. Her fans and market is everywhere but France. You've sifted through her Youtube videos. Probably a couple of hundred million views since 2006 (when Youtube began and after she retired). Most of the comments are in English and Spanish. There are more comments in Russian and Chinese than French. Unfortunately, most of the people enamored with Alizee have no idea she is still singing and just released a new album. I honestly will not be surprised if Alizee's US sales for "5" surpasses her sales in France. And that's with no marketing to her U.S. audience.

That is a very good point that many are unaware of. Back in 2008 we would vote on Radio Atlantis 107's Hit Parade to get Alizée's songs played on their station. FYI the station is located on the west coast of France just north of Nantes.

The songs that would be in the top ten or fifteen were to be nice, mostly garbage. There would be a few that were good but more trended to mediocre to really bad on the Hit Parade weekly voting.

The other point was Jean-Jacques Goldman really wants to work with her, and offered her songs for this last Album. As one reporter pointed out that working with J.J. Goldman was instant success in France. If she is so washed up why would Goldman want any thing to do with her?

Try to enjoy good aspects of the forum rather than getting frustrated about everything which you dislike slightly.
