Someone actually likes Fresh News ?!
I love the Fresh News track...it put a smile on my face when i first heard it. One of my favourites of T&T, along with Touch to Remember.

What's worse is the title track, especially the long version which doesn't add anything to the album..and Melancholic Rodeo. Beautifull Agony would have been a great track without the moaning.

And that song is? :)
Okay... On ZooLook it's Diva. I admit it. Ethnicolor I and Ethnicolor II are my favorite. Perfect bookends.

But I also like Fresh News on T&T. A lot. Actually, like someone said it has great energy. Wen I heard that I thought this is gonna be great.

Chatterbox seems sort of lazy for lack of a better word--as in there doesn't see to be a ton of creativity/thought put into this songs.

But what I really despise is that he has the perfect closing song for the album with Melancholic Rodeo (a simply fantastic song which I always picture being played on the Sand Dunes of Northern Africa by Jarre) but Noooo...

Jarre has to go and ruin it with Téo & Téa 4 AM Remix--Ugh--What was he smoking?

On my iphone/ipod I just don't include that remix at the end of the album. Jarre ingeniously added that great little sound of the tape rewinding and 'Click" for the start of Malancholic Radio and then the album ends with another "click"--like a mix tape/infinite playlist--goes perfect with Jarre's Teo & Tea love concept--makes the album so much better--try it! :smoke:

You can always skip it, or burn your own CD and leave it out. :P :robertdugenou:

Read my last paragraph re: iPhone that's what I did. I use my iPhone in my car, jogging, etc.

Burn a CD? Oh that is so 20th Century. :P
Sad. I have all those Jarre CDs but now rarely look at them as everything is on hard drives.

Haha.... I know. Opinions are like... well you know everyone has one but yes for sone reason I really like Fresh News. I'm curious what specifically don't you like about that song. Also off topic I don't know why others get so offended with the moaning of beautiful agony. Too me the whole T&T album seems so tongue-in-cheek. But now even Jarre is ashamed it seems. I don't think he should be. We need to embrace our failures as much as our triumphs.


C'etait une erreur cet album, une connerie. Sur un plan personnel, j'avais plein de galères et je me suis amusé à jouer avec des samples, comme une récréation. Et on l'a sorti comme album. Mais quand je le réécoute aujourd'hui... Je l'assume, hein, il faut bien assumer ce qu'on fait, mais je ne le referais pas. (This album was a mistake, a dumb thing to do. I had a lot of personal problems at the time, and I kept myself entertained playing with these samples. And then they were released as an album. But when I listen to the album today... well, one has to stand behind one's own work, I guess, but I really wouldn't do it again.)

One thing is for sure. Most fans for a new studio album 2010, they don't want Téo & Téa Part Two! :fine:
