 Worthy Mylene, but not a classic September 24, 2008

Greetings. This album has some sublime moments, but it is far from her finest work. THAT masterpiece would be the incomparable magnum opus from 1999, __Innamoramento__. This collection does contain 2 songs that are equal to her very, very finest moments, along the lines of Ainsi Soit-Je, Je te Rends ton Amour, Libertine, Je T'aime Melancolie, Regrets, and L'Amour N'est Rien. These two best moments of __Point de Suture__ are the super-catchy, faux-innocent, and joy-inspiring __Appelle mon Numero__ and the gorgeous, haunted and haunting title track, __Point de Suture__, which is even more mesmerizing than Annie Lennox's most private moments.
A few other songs are nearly as fantastic, such as Reveiller le Monde, Je M'ennuie, and the first single, Degeneration. The only true horror, and genuinely shocking disappointment is the "duet" with Moby. It is not worth discussion, and is certainly not worthy of inclusion in her opus. His voice is terrible in relation to hers and to the music. What were they thinking? He is a poor David Bowie substitute. Mylene and Laurent are musicians and poets of such a high order, that to put out so few albums, and to take such great care with their collective output, this misstep seems disturbing and unfortunate. Guere de logique.
Oh well, Farmer and Boutonnat are without equals, and I absolutely love their universe. Bravo et brava! Neil T of Minneapolis, MN neilbartz@msn.com

I am Mylene Farmer very long time , and also big collection of her ,too.
with me this album pretty good . but , not good as other albums before. about this album is very short , only 10 songs some is very good , some is not that good. i don't like Moby music . i don't think he is good song write. maybe he is good for mixer and dj.if , you like dance, nelly circuit musique its the one for you. my track songs list hight recomment is 2,3,7,8,9 and tracks 1 and 10 is ok....
 CD is Great - But there's no enhanced video clip for 'Degeneration' September 18, 2008

Mylene Farmer does it again. It's a shame the American music market is so xenophobic that this release will be largely overlooked. Try it, you'll like it! And don't be put off by critics who refer to Mylene as "the French Madonna." No offense to Madonna, but Mylene takes it to a whole other level.
One caveat to potential buyers - this version of the CD DOES NOT include the 'Degeneration' video - so be sure to check it out on YouTube (and shame on Amazon.com for the misleading description).
**************************************
Mylene Farmer le fait encore. C'est une honte que le marche Americain de musique est si xenophobique que ce degagement sera en grande partie neglige. Essayez-le, vous l'aimera! Et ne soyez pas mis au loin par les critiques qui se referent a Mylene comme "le Madonna Francais." Aucune offense a Madonna, mais Mylene ne lui prend a une totalite l'autre niveau. Un avertissement aux acheteurs potentiels - cette version du CD n'inclut pas le 'Degeneration' video - soyez ainsi sur de la verifier dehors sur YouTube (et honte sur Amazon.com pour la description fallacieuse).
Mylene Farmer- "Point De Suture" September 16, 2008

I have been a long time fan of Mylene Farmer. In this album, Mylene returns to her older "dark, moody, dance" style. It's a very pleasant,entertaining album in spite of the fact it sounds very much like many of her older albums. It would be great if Mylene released an English language album so that she could become well known in the USA. Although she does have a cult following here,the sad fact is most people in America have never heard of her! I think she could be a big star here if people had the chance to listen to her music.
L'ANGE ROUGE N'ECHOUERA JAMAIS A ME PLAIRE !!!! September 11, 2008

Les necs les plus ultra sont, sans doute, JE M'ENNUIE, REVEILLER LE MONDE, C'EST DANS L'AIR, APPELLE MON NUMERO, et l'incomparable POINT DE SUTURE, qui me fait penser a la chanson AVANT QUE L'OMBRE. Simplement ce disque ne se ressemble a celui de 2005, le bel et bien aime ...OMBRE duquel elle tissait l'enorme spectacle de 2006 a Bercy (le dvd soyant un MUST) mais ce disque nous offre un autre vue de Mylene : plein de surpris et de points d'emotion la plus forte. C'est clair, c'est bel, et c'est Mylene, qui regnera a jamais en tant que l'ange roux.
