5.0 out of 5 stars Mylene at her best, March 19, 2004

Frankly I feel that I'm more than a Mylene fan...I regard her as the grandiose, mysterious, super-goddess-supreme of Pop Music... It's a shame she's not well known world wide!

This was the first cd (and a double-cd!!) of Mylene that I bought, and I'm still listening to it regularly...her live renditions of such classics as "Sans Contrefacon", "Mon Coeur est Lache", "Je T'aime Melancolie", are truly gems...and some versions even surpass the originals from studio albums (i.e.: "Libertine").

This concert was made in 1997, two years after the release of Mylene's last studio album by then, "Anamorphosee"...and obviously it features much of its songs, most notably "XXL" (a great showstopper), "Alice" (so sexy), "California", "Comme J'ai Mal"....I even don't speak french that well, but anyway her songs catch me under its spell...and I even sort of understand the lyrics pretty well, they're magic for me.

Well, I have to admit that I became such an ardent fan of Mylene, that I bought a multizone dvd equipment which also converts PAl norm to NTSC, and bought her four (available) dvd's at Amazon.france and Amazon.germany. They're all greaaattt (worth every "EURO" I had to pay)...especially the dvd of this Concert (Just A-W-E-S-O-M-E!!) and Music Videos Numbers II & III, which features her video clips from her "Anamorphosee" (1995) and "Innamoramento" (1999) albums, plus "Mon Coeur est Lache".

Mylene, supreme goddess of love, sensuality, sexiness and mood... Vous-etes grand!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome concert, very different from regular versions, November 21, 1999

I dislike "live" CDs in general but I must say Mylene Farmer does an awesome performance on this one. The songs are so different from the regular versions it's a special treat. Even if you have the regular versions, you won't be bored with this CD.

4.0 out of 5 stars puts on a good show, April 4, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Live a Bercy (Audio CD)

When Mylene Farmer does a tour she doesn't go about in a modest way. She brings dancers, hightech stage-tricks, Paco Rabanne-clothes and the latest video-techniques. The whole thing is best captured on the concertvideo which is a big thrill. On this double-cd it's just the music: a lot of great dance-songs and a couple of heartbreaking ballads. Mylene's highpitched, slightly panting voice at times is 'lost' in the big beats and I'm quite positive at times she does a little lipsyncing (on 'Alice'e.g.) One song on the album can not be found on any other Mylene-release: 'La poupee qui fait non', performed with Algerianborn Rai-singer Khaled (of 'Aicha' and 'DiDi'-fame). On the whole a nice album. If you're new to Mylene it's a great way to get to know her best stuff. Only the horrible instrumental track in which the musicians are introduced should have been dropped.
