Unique and Great CD from the queen of french pop Oct 10, 2009 When this CD came out, it shocked people, even her fans. Many were saying, huh?, what? when they heard "Dégénération". Oh no, it's all going downhill, just like one reviewer here stated. Hardly any lyrics, why, these are just a bunch of dance songs. Well, yes but much more... It grows on you. It envelopes till you are so addicted to these songs. I went to her concert in Stade de France (for the 2nd time) and she is awesome! The songs are awesome! Such presence! My favorite is C'est dans L'air, love the beat on this. Then the rest of the songs in order of preference..Dégénération, Sextonik, Je M'ennuie, Si J'avais Au Moins... (plus Ave Maria <--comes after about 1-2 minutes after), Reveiller Le Monde, Paradis Inanimé, Appelle Mon Numéro, Point De Suture, Looking For My Name (En duo avec Moby <--yes, the american). I consider this CD among her best really. It's up there.
Mylene Famer collection metal box set May 22, 2009 Hmm....with me , this collection not very much interested collection box set.

The perfect album for the perfect come back Jan 28, 2009 Well personally this is one of the best Mylène's albums the lyrics are so beautiful as ussual but this album is different.
when you listen to the first track Dégénération you get impressed and i like specially this song, but other special one is Paradis Inanimé this song is extremly beautiful and shows you the beauty of french music, it reminds me too the Anamorphosée era because of the guitars and
si j'avais au moins this track makes me cry, the lyrics are so poetical and the guitar solo at the end of this song is magnific
so that's why i rate it as a five stars disc i really recomned this album

Nice! Jan 28, 2009 This Cd from Mylene Framer is a nice change from the more traditional French chanson to a more "pop version", and it is very well done.

...It's all going downhill ! (from a disappointed admirer) Dec 11, 2008 It is great to see all the support for Mylène's latest album. I have been a fan of Boutonnat/Farmer since they started and absolutely love most of what they do.
Unfortunately, I struggled to appreciate Avant que l'ombre where Mylène high pitch singing is weak and hollow and was accompanied by quite uninspired music. Shame as I want to like everything they do.
And, in my opinion, things are getting worse and I can no longer connect to the latest "Mylène" outputs like Point de Suture titles. They feature repetitive Euro beats, simplistic melodies, monotonous rythms and music. "Appelle mon numéro" seems to be aimed at young teenagers and is mightily irritating (like 90% of the material on this album).
If targetting teenagers is the new way, then it is spot on and you may like this album but I feel the departure from what made her great too big for me to follow. Where are the haunting scores, catchy tunes without being trash, moody lyrics and atmosphere?
One could draw a parallel with Madonna and her genre twisting "Confessions on a Dance Floor", and if this Mylène's attempt, then I think it fails.
Call me old school but you can't call this Mylène Farmer (...Alizée?)
