As for anniversary of Oxygene, he wants i think a big hit again. Me think.
what anniversary? If you're talking about "Oxygène's" 30th anniversary, you're a year too late...... 't was in 2006
World-wide release in 1977! :wink:

when do you celebrate a child's anniversary / birthday: the day it was born, or the day you present the child to all your relatives? :mryellow:

Fortunately there is no such thing as a worldwide birth 8) The comparison with birth and alll that doesn't make much sense.

Worldwide release was 1977, so worldwide anniversary should be 2007.

Surely, he could have done a france-only anniversary in 2006 as well.

According to the studio video mess. about the album...it's not the last one.

He wanted to be faithful to his roots but there seems to be many new ideas going on with growing things and stuff....

I'm not so sure I'm going to like this album at all but it will show sooner or later.

To be honest, Jarre is no differant than any other artist out there. What he says and what he does are two differant things. We know Jarre's track record well. He has annouced a lot of projects then never followed them through due to one thing or another.
Jarre concerts attended - Destination Docklands 1988 - Paris La Defense 1990 - Europe In Concert 1993 (Manchester & London) - Oxygene Tour 1997 (Birmingham)

"A group of men and woman entered the laboratory one month ago to live in a smell free world. Body odour, sweaty arms pits and smelly feet are to create the energy to survive. A total mystery surrounds this experiment, and it's project code name: B.O and Smell'i "

Ok, I was wrong... I remembered the September news from Jarreuk and recalled the pictures to it as a video message. :oops: :lol: Sorry for that.

I thought about this: [When JARRE UK asked about how he intended to implement this concept of having these different versions of the NEW Studio Album's tracks, Jean Michel Jarre answered that they will "maybe released as seperate tracks on iTunes, or maybe released as another album, an EP, or something like that, or maybe released as a different version of the same album." He would also like to have some "more different versions in [his] concerts of these tracks".]

No garanties ofcourse, but on the other hand...has anybody actually heard JMJ saying loud and clear that this is the last album he will ever make?? :roll: To me he sounds more like a man still full of crazy ideas. :mryellow: :wink:

I don't understand this point, but it seems like JMJ is vanishing step by step, little by little...

:cry:
There is a lot of truth in that.

You have to admit, that JMJ has had a lot of competion from others over the years. He has remained on top form for most of his musical life. He's no spring chicken anymore, he's 57, so at some point even Jarre has to wind down. He could have easily jacked it all in years ago, but he hasn't. A very good testiment to his musical proness. He's made his money, earned his fans and following. He is under no obligation to continue making albums and staging 'live' shows. Im certainly going to enjoy his new album, it could very well be his last.
Yes, I have to agree with that. On everything comes an end, even on JMJ's carriere... When we dunno, but it will be.

We can never say when he will retire from making music, it can be hard to decide for the person have to take that decision, maybe you can't say it. Nothing tells me that this should be his last album, so I am not thinking in that way :)

No sign of retiring whatsoever.

JM was in very happy about the concerts in Poland, and as far as I can see, he's still full of very creative ideas and all that. So I don't see why you would bring this topic of retiring up...? :roll:
