Thanks! I was just about to lose hope and cancel it.

BTW amazon.com lists the LE in stock now.

Thanks for the words of encouragement!


My copies arrived yesterday in the mail! THEY'RE HERE! WOOOT!

Now - as you all know - I have'nt participated in any of the discussions, or reviews of the new material - wanting to keep that moment fresh.

Here are my feelings after the first (partial) listen thru:

1. Mademoiselle Juliette
My favorite so far, seems most approachable to me, I love it.


2. Fifty Sixty
I'll have to listen to it more - Good, but I have to disagree with others on the board here who seem to feel that it should have been released first. I really feel MJ was the right song for the start.

3. Mon Taxi Driver
I like it.

4. Jamais Plus
Unremarkable (to me - please don't fry me!).

5. Psychédélices
I like it - i think this is one that will grow on me.

6. Décollage
Trippy - sticks with me.......We'll see....

7. Par Les Paupiéres
ok song - have to listen to it more.

8. Lilly Town
Made me smile - I like it, I don't know WHY, but i do.

I have to listen to the rest on the way home tonight.......

My feeling is that some of the songs just aren't going to be that attractive to me (for example - I am not a big fan of rap...) maybe because of my age. However, let me listen to them for a week or two - and i'll get back to you on these!

I'm just tickled pink that they came in!

WOOT!

Ed

Eventually all these songs will be stuck in your head
and you'll find yourself singing along

Funny thing is, as you may know - I don't speak French, so when I do try to sing along, its USUALLY hilarious! (to me anyway - wife has been known to put headphones on and listen to ((UGH!)) Michael Bolton!) So yea, I'm trying to sing MJ already! And "Mon Taxi Driver" (at least 3 words.....)

Just got my LE in about 15 minutes ago! Just watched the DVD and I loved it. Got a feeling I will be doing nothing but listening to the CD today.

Default Mine arrived last night...

It took a while (I stuck with Amazon.com for the order) but it is finally here.

I would have to say it is what I expected. The previous albums were a defined work that had a specific theme to them. The new album is more of a break out where she is trying various methods and styles trying to see what she feels will help define her for the future.

It's great music on it's own, and I am enjoying that I finally get to listen to some new music from one of the most talented voices I have ever heard.
