My Psychédélices epiphany

Second that. I discovered her after the release of Psychedelices, but when I went deeper, I fell in love with the early Alizee. Actually, when I first watched the live version of JEAM, I thought she looked like that. But when I realized it was 5 years ago ...

I think she can, or could if she chooses to. If you are saying that her voice has permanently lost that range then I have to disagree. If she is out of practice, a series of sessions with a singing coach will bring it right back. She is much too young to "lose" that portion of her range.

Or maybe she likes singing the upbeat, higher clef, style?
I don't care really, I just wish her voice was more in-my-face than the background style of Psych.

As much of an instrument freak as I am, I don't think instruments are what should drive her music, just to hear every little tidbit of her voice, when she takes that breath perhaps before singing a long winding part, or the roll of the r's and the whisper of the s. That is what really attracts me.

Her voice isn't her problem, I agree, at least in terms of her future career prospects. Her problem is both more nuanced and more broad.

Why does people always is criticize her voice (Im not talking about you guys, Im talking about the ones that are not fans). I often hear in tv programs people sayin´ she hasnt a good voice, but thats not true !
And always the say that no one cares, with her sexy dances its enough .

You should know what century you're in.
It's called the 21st century, and so far it's becoming one of the worst.
And here, most people in the 21st century, are total lustheads who could care less about voice, talent, etc.
Got a great body or a sexy face = success

They criticize my metal because it's too harsh, now they're criticizing her poppish voice, what's next? Mocking Frank Sinatra because his voice was too gelly? I hate this century...

Yes but, come on her voice isnt bad, and I have heard it many times .

Maybe they are jealous or just because they arent fans, they dont realize her beautiful voice..

It's true that she does not have a powerful voice (like Celine Dion for example). Therefore, for some, looking from the outside, her voice is not "good." However, it is the texture, nuance, and expression in her voice that gets me, and many many others. We are here for the total package.

Sex and attraction does sell. It always has. The human race wouldn't exist without it. For some a "genie in a bottle" is enough (although she does have a good voice too). However, for many, when it comes to performers it's just one component of the total package.

By the way, the next several years are going to be VERY bumpy, but eventually it will start to get much better. This will turn out to be a very fun Century (very intense, but a lot of fun).

Yes she does . But its obviously that if you arent a fan you will look first everything, but not her voice.

Remember, tomorrow 3 PM central time, the repetition of the Lunas del auditorio awards, tv Azteca, canal 13. Have a good day/night, see you tomorrow .

That's it!
