.....and as far as tap dancing, you never did answer my question. also I found your first sentence belittling, but that's okay for anyone on your side of the fence to do it. and take for example your using Donald Trump. He is a person of significance. Why? Because to get where he is today probably required him to be a shrewd judge of character and material not to mention numerous other things. So if just this one man said the album was good, it would make me far more likey to believe it is a good album, but once again, one still not to my liking. EDIT: Please feel free to talk about the dress. I'm curious to get a woman's opinion about the dress if you haven't already expressed it. Is this the type of dress that a teenage girl might normally wear any day or did it look more like a maternity dress to you? Last edited by Scruffydog777; 03-26-2011 at 12:46 PM.. |

What makes an album "good" other than being to your liking? I don't see how you could judge it in any way that isn't opinion based.

They didn't "label" it a flop, it WAS a flop. That is a fact. ( Unless you compare it to most electo albums, then it was a success, but I digress)

It is also my OPINION that Gourmandises and MCE music and the image associated with it is KIDS stuff, and Lilly shouldn't go back to it. She is worthy of so much more. Let talentless dolls like Britney Spears rehash former glory.... that's beneath Alizee.

I don't think anyone is trying to say she should go back to her former style, but that she should create her own style that really suits her. In all honestly, I don't see this ever happening. Alizee seems very influenced and whoever/whatever she admires at the time, is the style she goes for. When she met Jeremy, she did the whole punk rocker thing. Psychedelices reminds me of that Madonna album (the name escapes me) where she does a bunch of different styles. Then I guess she really admired CM and their style and wanted to go for that.
I liked a few songs on the album, but overall, I found it very boring. Even when I'm wanting to relax, I can barely listen to it, it's too simple. I guess thats the sound they were going for though; electronic, but sort of 1984 electronic with one synth and some percussion. Not really my cup of tea. I like more intricate compositions. |

Implicit critical praise for UEdS!

...just because some show said it was a flop and the album didn't sell many copies doesn't mean it is FACT that the album IS/WAS/ALWAYS WILL BE a flop. Saying something is a flop is all opinion. It's just like me saying the album was a huge success, it's all opinion.
So it is not fact that the album is a flop. But I agree that a good amount of people in France and abroad believe the album was a flop, but again, them thinking it was a flop is their opinion. QUESTION: Does anyone know how many UEDS albums were made/manufactured?

The only complaint I had with UEDS is the minimalist approach to the electro arrangements. The reason the album still works for me is that I like the songs themselves and I like the melodies. I personally am a big fan of progressive music, which typically has complexity in composition as well as arrangements that require the musicians to really put forth noteworthy performances. Of course by its very nature, pop music usually does not get too complicated, as it would probably not appeal to the masses. It’s meant to be more fun, and so therefore less challenging and thoughtful. But if Alizée puts out another album, regardless of genre, I’d like to see the musicians and writers really step it up. There are ways to compose and produce music that can appeal to the masses, and yet contain some complexity in the compositions and performances to be of interest to the rest of us.
