Totally agree, but it still makes me angry that they released the song, OK, and she went several radio studios on that day. And since then... nothing.

But I also haven't seen any ads yet.

Poor songs, but I liked them very much. By the way, I prefer JPVA. The lyrics of "I'm not twenty" was not too loveable for me.

Definitely LB would be the bigger loss for her, but I think it was not a loss that she left them.
Not Mylene is the only one who can write lyrics in France. I love many songs which were not written by MF... "Dans mon sac", ACDLA, "Je veux bien", "Psychédélices", "Décollage", "Idéaliser"...etc.

I think her best album of all was "5".
I found myself in that whole album. This may sound weird because I'm only 20 years old, but my last 4 years were awful. But my life is not the point.

Back to "Blonde"...
I don't have any problem with this song. I love it.
It's easy, fun and catchy. I was surprised when I first listened to it.
But I love it! Since its release I can't listen to other songs XD

When I first heard Blonde, I was worried that it would be tricky to perform live as there are several different 'voices' playing at the same time and overlapping. I thought maybe it wouldn't be the best choice for a single because of that.

But it's what we have so I'm hopeful that she is able to make the most of it. I find the song catchy and energetic. But I still can't find it on iTunes.

Definitely like the new single, sounds catchy, hopefully it will be a big hit and she can go back to the major success she had circa 2005 and before. Not sure about the lyrics as I haven't seen the translation.

Not sure if I am digging the new blond look, I mean she is a natural brunette and she looks beautiful being brunette.

Hopefully she will sell a lot of copies of her new album, hopefully more that her last album (I heard that it didn't do to well, not sure about that though).

Good luck to her and I wish her all the best!

That was not a 'live performance'. She was lip syncing.

As someone pointed out, it looks like a picture of Times square on her outfit, so I don't know if anyone has brought it up yet but you know they must've filmed some scenes for the video in NY. It'll be interesting to see it when it comes out.

Hmm, it looks like Sony made the video available in most of European countries too I'm afraid they again forgot about USA...

Has anyone been checking out the charts to see if there's been any improvement since these recent performances?

BTW does anyone else think this song would sound good if Alizée was to sing it in English?
