If you're going to tell a story of a foreign character, and use a foreign language in parts of it in the process, then you should go to the trouble of going to where the story happened.

i agree! just because i live 2 hours away from New York though

so i would be able to see her!

I agree that shooting some of the scenes in NY would have been a really great thing to do and I truly wish they could have. I wouldn't doubt Alizée would have liked to do that too. Unfortunately, I would suspect it's really all about the amount of money they had available and budgeted for the video.

If Alizée was a top ten American pop star they would have spared little or no expense for the video. Or even like many of Mylene's videos. Unfortunately, I don't think Alizée has that kind of money behind her right now. If UEDS proves to be a big financial success, she might be able to do a lot more in the future.

I guess I'll be the first to say that this song has a little Britney feel to it and I'm not too crazy about the video, or her excessive use of makeup here. Although I do understand the part she's playing in the video and I think she plays it well as always. I like Limelight more then this song, even though the lyrics may not be as meaningful. I like the rest of the music in her album though, and the more I listen to this song the more I like it. I think this gender of music suits her voice well, all the more dreamy... ♥

I had to wear heavy black eyelashes like bat wings, and dark lines under my eyes, and cut all my hair off, my long dark hair. Cut it off and strip it silver and blonde. All those little manoeuvres I did out of things that were happening in my life that upset me"... Edie Sedgwick

Here's a couple of photos I dug up from Danny Fields' archive, he apparently shared a loft with Edie back in the days. Does she remind you of anyone... ??

The only resemblance really is that Sedgwick was a very pretty woman with big dark eyes. In character and personality she and Alizée are light years apart, which Alizée has said several times is one of the reasons she enjoyed playing this role.
