NOUVEAU SINGLE
Un an après "A contre courant", Alizée sort un nouveau single. Il s'agit de "Amélie m'a dit". Il est envoyé aux radios cette semaine. Aucune sortie commerce n'est annoncée pour le moment, mais il n'est pas impossible qu'il sorte fin septembre, début octobre.

In English:

NEW SINGLE
A year after "A contre courant", Alizée releases a new single. It's "Amélie m'a dit". It was sent to radio stations this week. No commercial release has been announced for the moment, but it's not impossible that it'll be released at the end of September, beginning of October.

This could mean we might actually get to hear the live version of Amélie m'a dit very soon!

[mot]

Atlast! Shame it's not a new song tho :-/

[The Mighty Atom]

And it'l be a live version clip?

[squeaky ladida]

^so i hear
which would be pretty cool!!

[Moco]

I'm guessing, as have many others, that the video will be like Mylène's Innamoramento. That is, half of it will be footage from the concert and the other half will be new footage shot elsewhere. It should, after all, be partly new, since it wouldn't be much of a "bonus" on the DVD if it were exactly the same as what you see in the concert footage.

[Jaycubed]

Ok this is a little late from me but..YAY! :P :P

It's so cool to hear that another release is happening, the radio waves to be filled with Alizée again, and it's just more good news that makes me really happy, the wait is almost over :D

[monkeygod]

Live version clip? awww, how lame. I was hoping for a new music video. We already get the live clip from the DVD anyways.

[Moco]

Read my message above. :wink:

[LeLoupDesSteppes]

Either way, it's something semi-new from Alizée, and I'm stoked. :P

[monkeygod]

Read my message above. :wink:

Ah i guess i didnt catch it when i skimmed though the thread. I hope you're right though, Moco

[mot]

Damn that looks class. With live they mean live sung?
And any news on the bonustracks?

[Faze]

Thats excellent i really like it, and yeah i would think it means sung live, if so that will be great

[Ayan]

Mmmmmm...


Dawn is coming down
Feeling empty, falling slowly
Never let me drown
Oh Amélie mine, help me to fly
:wink:


Anything new about the price of the single ?

[John]

I bet you it will be hella expensive! However I think it will be a test on how wanted her fans want Alizee.

[DavidAlizée]

you kidding John, everyone will buy this.. price aint the issue =) ive waited so long for something like this to happen, i don't think anyone here will not buy it.

[Moco]

Singles usually aren't that expensive. About 5 € for those 2-song singles, although it seems this one will only have 1. And to whoever asked if this will be the live version, isn't it obvious by the cover? LIVE Version. :wink:

[monkeygod]

Only thing i dont like is the font. Why do they have to use the JEAM font again? Doesnt seem to fit the song eitehr. Otherwise, it looks sweet!

[The Mighty Atom]

When will the single be released?

[Ayan]

^^ its not "JEAM" font.
They've used it in JPVA & ACC aswell.

[squeaky ladida]

It's very nice, but i too don't think that the font was the best choice
it just doesn't fit the mood, makes it seem kinda angry/rebellious

[Piece Of Paradise]

Best news I've heard this week.

[The Mighty Atom]

Who cares about the font. Its still cool! 8)

[squeaky ladida]

Who cares about the font. Its still cool! 8)

amen

woot!

[The Mighty Atom]

Amen, Squeaky!

TEH OMFG PWN! :P :P :P

Hahaha. :cheesy:

[Nikodemus]

That cover look very good. Colours and all. Very stylish. Will there be only one song on the live single.

[Lía]

that's what i was wondering....

it must be a waste of money spending 5€ on one track song.... :roll: or do france hav a special price where it's like 3€ for a one or two track cd??

i would get it if there was another song on it, like a remix... but as it stands at the mo... it's a maybe...

[Mr Bond]

Yeah I'm not sure and its not a new song either. Really its not very good value for her fans namely us. :? DVD will make up for it though I want it so bad! October 18th can't come soon enough. :D

[Moco]

Well usually the 5 € singles have 2 songs on them. But the pictures of the Amélie CD on the previous page are just from a promo. So if it really is released as a single, they might put another song on the CD in addition, just like the J'ai pas vingt ans single also had I'm Fed Up and the A contre-courant single had I'm Not Twenty.

[Backinblack]

In that same vein, the logical choice for a second song on the single would be "Amélie", English version, or they could also put "Youpidoo" on there. But maybe they're done with promoting the English stuff.

[DavidAlizée]

Yeah I'm not sure and its not a new song either. Really its not very good value for her fans namely us.. :D

It still adds to the collection though : )

[Max_07s]

nice avatar david..what the vid name?

[monkeygod]

Further image enhancement shows that Alizee is in fact holding the kitten-chasing poop monster (http://www.boreme.com/bm/JUL02/a/god_kills/pic1.jpg) known as "Domo-kun".

OMFG, TEH ROFL! Hahahaha. :cheesy:

[Lía]

well if they have a 2nd track on it... i'd choose Youpidou! coz i like it...! or amélie...

[UK Fan 2003]

I think the cover looks great, really cool....
...as for the font, something with a softer feel rather than the JEAM font being used.

[DavidAlizée]

nice avatar david..what the vid name?

Merci beaucoup! Its.. TOTP - J'en Ai Marre - Germany

Can this picture get any cuter?

I got one of these little guys on my bed :?

Mg, are you actually trying to drive me stark raving mad? One more of these and it will be exploding head time again...

/me walks away smoking from the ears from near-cuteness overload...

[Snatcher42]

Right, now look you've done...
Omph! (http://bigworm.colorado.edu/~slusarz/Graphics/xhead.gif)

Where's John? C'mon man, MF can't do that.

...Now where's the damn live MP3?!?! :evil:

[The Mighty Atom]

http://bigworm.colorado.edu/~slusarz/Graphics/xhead.gif

Not funny! :S

[Moco]

Try to stay on topic guys. Thanks.

In that same vein, the logical choice for a second song on the single would be "Amélie", English version, or they could also put "Youpidoo" on there. But maybe they're done with promoting the English stuff.
Well, I think they'd be done promoting stuff from MCE, period. So I don't think they'd put a song from that album on the live single, but rather another live song. At least that's what I'd hope they do.

[Moco]

Cors'Alizée (http://www.corsalizee.com/) has a clip from the live version of Amélie! It really seems to me like they put a lot of work into this... maybe too much, because it sounds very similar to the album version. There are only slight differences.

But big thanks to Cristelle!

[gerard332]

Is the picture shown a promo, as it has only has one track? I'm guessing there'll be a 2 track CD, 2nd track maybe an instrumental version; and a maxi CD with remixées maybe?

[Mr Bond]

Yes I guess DavidAlizee just a little bit of a let down after the hype is all.

Good call monkeygod lol! :lol: Guess I glossed over that the first time I looked! :D

[Piece Of Paradise]

http://perso.wanadoo.fr/et-toc/amelie%20ma%20dit%20cd%20promo2%20-%20copie.JPG

There's only one song, judging from this picture which stated: 1 - Live Version

[Mr Bond]

Yeah but where did you get that picture from? The so called 'promo' being sold on ebay is clearly a fake. I don't know of anywhere that has official track listing or finished artwork. Obviously it will be the same pic and style but could you say where you found the pic? :?:

[DavidAlizée]

This is the official cover .. people on ebay are making copies.

[Mr Bond]

Thanks for clearing that up. :D I wish ebay would take action to stop these greedy b*st*rds making illegal copies to rip off noobs. :evil: I don't trust ebay anymore.

[Jaycubed]

And you are right not to trust ebay, really...it can be good, but there is so much fake stuff circling around. Don't bother, buy it officially from a reliable site or from a store itself. Alizée is so worth all the money in the world, so just get it from somewhere reliable instead of trying to find it as cheap as you can..

It's Alizée...she's so more than worth it every single time

[Mr Bond]

I used to use it but now people seem to get away with listing any carp they like. Fake MCE cd, fakes of AMD! :x and the DVD etc. The people who make these are criminals! who exploit new fans and harm her sales. Surely it should be in ebay's interest to do something about it (IP ban the sellers involved and contact the police/ trading standards etc) as it damages their corporate image. They've lost my business (just closed my account) and several of my friends too (seller probs & fake stuff). Anyway my money situation has improved now with having a job so I can buy more Alizee stuff from Amazon :D Yay!

You are so right Jaycubed your her beautiful voice and your sig remind me of this! :D My sig on the other hand is just silly. :lol:

[Snatcher42]

You are so right Jaycubed your her beautiful voice and your sig remind me of this! :D My sig on the other hand is just silly. :lol:
I think you have my favorite sig on the whole forum, Bond!

[DavidAlizée]

Yeah mr Bond.. i do understand what you are saying. But surely downloading music via Winmx, and sharing the albums on p2p, that is also doing damage to singers sales. I can also see the sellers on ebays point too. They arnt just selling Alizée stuff, they make copies of other suff, as people sell them all over... on so many internet sites and local markets near me. I suppose they are just trying to make money. However, unfortunitly Alizée may be effected by this as many other arists. I for one will still be buying the cd and dvd from Amazon.fr when i place my order on friday. Copies are never the same as the original.

Ebay won't tell them to stop, as they are making money from each listing. No need to close ur account, cos Ebay is a fantastic market place to get things that you can't buy in the shops. :P

[Mr Bond]

Exactly my point that's why I feel so sorry for people who are taken in. I know they want to make money but there should be some accountability?

I might reconsider my decision but I've had bad experiences with them. :?

There are many articles that show file sharing does not hurt album sales.

[Pawel]

Yeah, "I won't download = I will buy" logic is absurd. Most of my original CDs are bought after I heard the music from mp3s. Not much of them actually, but I try to collect my favourite artists. Same with Alizee, I would never be her fan if not the internet. However I bought all the albums after almost 3 years, but I did. Without downloading, I just wouldn't listen to much music and probably wouldn't even know it. And CDs aren't cheap comparing to local salaries. Especially foreign ones, which can cost over two times more than the polish ones.
EDIT: Just to add few words
So, blaming p2p is silly, people will copy music either way as they did before there was internet. And most of those who would buy it will buy it anyway.
As for buying music via as Napster and alikes - it is nonsense IMO. What I mostly buy a CD for is to have it looking nicely on a shelf.

I still think it's funny that Metallica were a part of the cassette swapping in the US way back, then go and sue Napster.

[DavidAlizée]

Lost in time your missing the point. No-one is blaming p2p. People were saying that users on ebay are selling cheap copies of the dvd and the custom dvds of Merci Alizée ect as well as so many albums. Mr Bond was saying this is wrong, then i compared those to downloading mp3s, if those guys on ebay are making a profit by cutting sales to albums.. then so must p2p sharing.

Not that this is wrong. When it comes to Alizée.. people don't buy her stuff to look good on a shelf, they buy the cds to support the artist. Like the En concert DVD.

[Pawel]

I agree, selling copies is nothing more than preying on someone other's work. However number of illegal copies sold cannot be said to be equal with number of original copies unsold.

My post was loosely related to this topic, I didn't even read the previous posts.
I meant that it is said in general that p2p harms sales. Well, you said it yourself. What I mean, is that it's not the lack of other sources that makes people buy music, but the respect for a certain artist or ownership in general. Those who don't care will always find a way to get music for free. There's no way of banning it. Of course nothing is definite, but on the other hand p2p has also a great promoting function.

As for CD standing on a shelf (another digression), I meant that for me _as a consumer_ a material CD with a booklet, etc. is far more superior than some abstract files on my HDD. It doesn't mean that I don't care about supporting an artist whom I like a lot. I'm happy to do it. However those greedy bastards from Metallica are on the bottom of my shopping list :cheesy:

[slickis]

well after listening to her music via the internet, i plan to buy her albums, and dvd quite soon.

Not that this is wrong. When it comes to Alizée.. people don't buy her stuff to look good on a shelf, they buy the cds to support the artist. Like the En concert DVD.

and thats why!

[ArlettyFan]

Ha, really, after all that happened, I never liked Metallica ever again. I remember at an award show they made fun of Metallica for it, and they showed a shot of one of them, and the guy looked pissed!

Now at my school they offer us free Napster as part of our total package in the dorms. My roomate has it, but I will NEVER get it. For example, he sent me some mp3's from it, and because I did not have a napster keycode, I couldn't play them! So i promptly deleted everything he sent me, because it is useless in every way. Not only that, but I wouldn't have been able to at least share the music either.

And It's funny, but Metallica is in one way partly responsible for all of this! :P
