I don't know what sort of problems you exactly have, since I'm not a native-English speaker, so I could only suppose
And again I come across this recording, I know that this is from a podcast, but what is the source of Alizée words?

Found this in an ancient but still very useful thread, I'm happy with my imitation of Lilly's pronunciation however

I have no idea if it is really how it is pronounced, but I know aFrenchie heard it and didnt say it was wrong .. maybe he will confirm.

sounds like I imagined it would tho ...

What's worse than American mispronunciation is English. There's an interview by an Englishwoman who can't get her tongue around the fact that French has no accented syllables. "A - LEE - zay," and the last syllable pronounced with an English long A which is a sound that doesn't exist in French. Every time I hear it I either laugh or grind my teeth, depending on mood.
