Alizee's English?

[user472884]

Well, you can't really blame Her Grace and Beauty for the MCÉ songs since they were just odd translations that so happened to fit the music. I could be wrong, but I don't think she had any influence with those.

Nowadays... I'm sure she's taken some form of English lessons, but they don't seem to have gotten her very far...

Take 2001 Alizée
I can't stand how this lady pronounces her name

I've never understood why the hell she threw that in there... and can't stand it either, which is a shame because the rest of the song sounds amazing.

I can feel the left side of my brain swell whenever I hear that "DJ" stuff...

To me, it's like

"Allons enfants de la patrie
Le jour de gloire est arrivé
Red bull gives you wings!
Contre-nous de la tyrannie"
