Alizee (good french music!)

Ok. This isn't not rock or electro.. it's not even indie! it's French pop. What!? Dare I say pop? Why is it posted here!? Well.. I must admit that I enjoy listening to Alizee's tracks.. maybe they're the vocals? I guess french class in junior high didn't make me hate listening to french music! (We use to re-listen to the same songs everyday for a week to help us prepare for a spelling quiz on the lyrics!). Anyways, Alizee is pretty popular in France. Some of her tracks are.. filled with jumpy piano keys, cheesy old school synths, drum machines (sometimes). Yeah, I know that makes her tracks sound cheesy.. but other tracks have strings, guitars, and real drums! (Those are her best tracks in my opinion). The vocals are so perfect.. like.. wow, she's got talent. The tracks are shamefully awesome, seriously.

Have a listen to "J'ai Pas Vingt Ans" It's the best track out of the rest in my opinion. It also sounds more "modern" than the rest of her tracks. You can disregard the description above for this track 'cause there are guitars and real good beats on this track! I love it! (P.S: The lyrics are pretty sweet if you can understand it!)

The Soho Dolls, electro with a rock edge

The Soho Dolls, electro with a rock edge. Often compared to Goldfrapp.. but I don't hear the similarity. Check out their track 'Stripper', nothing like Goldfrapp's Strict Machine at all. Yeah, they both use synths, so what? You can hear a hint of Marilyn Manson influence in this track with their thick synth bass line and rocking beats intro. But other than that, there's nothing else like this out there.

Can you say stripper music?

Well ana you're late
And maya, i'm here.
The boys in the band,
Decide to appear.
We walk through the door
Savour the air.
The girls on the floor,
I've come here to stare.
We've come here to stare.

Yeah

Dont touch the girls,
Dont kiss the girls,
I have the right to pull the girls.
Get in a fight,
On every night,
The scratches, the bruises and the bites.
But i wanna touch,
And i wanna kiss,
And if you say no then i will persist,
With you tonight,
You'll make it right.
You know that you're wetting my appetite.

You can call me x,
You can call me y,
You can call me z,
You can come and try.
Come and try.

Dont know what you think you're doing to me,
(Hey! Stripper, Hey! Stripper)
Dont know what you see its getting to me,
(Hey! Stripper, Hey! I wanna be your mister)
Na na, Na na, Na na, Na na, Na

Like you're perfume,
Your skin is smooth.
The way you move,
Im in the mood.
Tease the crowd,
Please the crowd,
I'm boiling i want you to see me now.
You get me girl,
When you're nervous well,
And when your hand is in the thong.
You may be right,
I close them tight,
You're saving the best for me tonight.

You can call me x,
You can call me y,
You can call me z,
You can come and try.
Come and try.

Dont know what you think you're doing to me,
(Hey! Stripper, Hey! Stripper)
Dont know what you see its getting to me,
(Hey! Stripper, Hey! I wanna be your mister)
Na na, Na na, Na na, Na na, Na

I've come to stare,
I've come to stare,
You like me to stare?
I like your underwear.

I've come to stare,
I've come to stare,
You like me to stare?
I am a voyeur.

Dont know what you think you're doing to me,
(Hey! Stripper, Hey! Stripper)
Dont know what you see its getting to me,
(Hey! Stripper, Hey! I wanna be your mister)
Na na, Na na, Na na, Na na, Na
