I agree, and the melody of "Mes Fantômes" sounds beautiful to me too.

It certainly sounds like a well produced album, and there seem to be no boring filler songs. But no great Hit either. Nevertheless, i think i will love this album.

But it's too early to judge from these short snippets.
At least the big majority of the songs is in french, as i hoped.

La candida sounds cute, i think the mexicans will love it!

Eden, Eden is already stuck in my head, even though I've only heard the short sample. It sounds like a classic to me already, as if it came from a bygone, but very cherished era.

When I've listened to the samples first I was a bit perplex because it's really different to her previous style... but I just had to listen a second time to adore it... I really like the songs but I hope the album isn't too "slow" to become a hit.... just "La Candida" isn't my taste... maybe the full version is better..

But I really need "A coeur fendre" as the second single! I totally love it!

This album will be great! Bravo Alizée and to all those who participated.

My favorites so far are 14 décembre, A coeur fendre, mes famtômes and la candida.

I'm concerned about the "slow" issue too. But I hope she will be rewarded for her very worthy effort, both with respect for her as an artist, and great sales. As I said before, I think she deserves it. I just hope others think so too.

In most of the songs, the instrumentals' volume appears to dominate. I would prefer that Alizée's voice be dominant.

I really like some of the melodies and especially Alizee's voice. As I've said before I don't like electronica, but I think I can stomach it with Alizee. I am also concerned that it is a bit subdued, but I'm hoping with at least some of the songs there are speedy change ups. I will be surprised if their is a real instrument sound like a guitar riff from time to time for my taste. I will definitely buy it and I hope it sells millions. I also believe Alizee worked hard on this one. I am also concerned how it will translate to live concert settings as Lefty eloquently put it with the softness of her voice against the electronics, but if mixed correctly I think she can pull it off. Also what will it look like with her back up band only being a person on a key board synthesizer/computer. I'm having a hard time rapping my head around that scene. All that being said I think I will grow to like it. As I've said before Alizee could sing the phone book and I would like it especially if she had Clapton as her guitarist and Peart as her drummer lol!

It's hard to judge based on short samples, but "14 decembre" sounds very promising.
