一位法国网友的个人多元化法文网页(因该网主对王菲的认识很深,不排除是个华人菲迷),其中一页唱片介绍专页就有《寓言》与《王菲》的介绍,内容大多是王菲的事业历程(当然包括《重庆森林》),最后一段说到两张唱片,该网主对两张唱片都是一致好评,《寓言》方面,他就特别欣赏《香奈儿》及《再见萤火虫》,认为能给王菲带来更多的乐迷,《再见萤火虫》更是与James Bond电影异常配合;《王菲》方面,他认为王菲尝试了更多不同的风格,如《光之翼》的large rock'n'roll与《色盲》。
特别一提的是,在多张唱片的介绍中,亚洲唱片中就只有王菲的两张。 ^_^

Faye Wong:: Fables (2000) + Faye Wong (2001):: official Web site
Asia, particularly Asia of the East, is a fertile ground for the pop singers, and sometimes these singers cross the borders; for example, signal 10 of continental China was dominated by the scene taiwanaise in the years 1990 (which one thinks of Teresa Teng , inter alia) or the Japanese pop artists who make concerts with closed counters with Hong Kong or Taiwan, or the Korean artists who succeed in cutting a place in the Chinese stores.
For the pop neophyte Asian one, the reproaches turn primarily around the poor musical invoice, of the sirupeuses words, the tone mievres and the overrated realization.
Faye Wong passably moved away from the stereotype of the prefabricated singer, integrating not only Western influences but improving and ingestant these elements to preserve only essence.
For the Asian a little refined film experts, Faye Wong is an actress in film of Wong Kar-Wai , Chungking Express -- the assistant working in a stand of fast-food, in the second part; the character, from a obsessionelle manner and teenager, falls in love with a police officer. The sound screen of film contains two resumptions of Cranberries sung by Faye Wong, of which Dream Person . Born in Beijing, and living in Hong Kong, it can sing as much in Chinese Mandarin that in Cantonese. Cocteau Twins inspired it much on one of its last albums, Fuzao (Impetuous), on which one can hear, inter alia, of the scat to Chinese.
It also sang the song topic of Final Fantasy VIII .
For Fables , Faye Wong (April 2000) starts a voyage in the Trip-hop in Goldfrapp on the first five parts of the album, in particular Chanel, which him sied very well and which gains new fans. It nevertheless keeps a foot in the style light rock'n'roll which suits him to wonder, while bringing there its subtle key of originality which emphasizes it plethoras of pop egeries, a little like You arcy . Best the parts is Goodbye small Firefly , with violins and grandiloquence worthy of a topic of James Bond.
For its last album, CD doubles eponyme, even more styles are explored, for example the large rock'n'roll with the song Wings Of Light (which opens the album) or drolatic Colorblind , in Suzanne Vega. Behind rumours of retirement, these two albums are excellent introductions to Faye Wong, but even the fans the puses aguerris will find their account there, especially with the videos clip and the pubs of Head & Shoulders (!). Those which despair of the Cantonese or Chinese madarin words can always seek the hundreds of fanasites where some are evertuent to translate it.
