I've probably said it on here before that , while I adore the current album , I always thought that "Fifty Sixty" was one of the weakest tracks.This was in spite of the new video which I think is pretty refreshing and good fun too.

However having the spent the last couple of days driving around the country , enjoying what seems like the first sunshine this year , the song is FANTASTIC to listen to while driving.I just felt it to be an ideal song for rattling along with the windows down and the volume cranked way up.:cool:

While it will never be my favourite track , "Par Les Paupieres" will always remain undefeated , I've seen the song in a whole new light.

This has got me wondering whether anyone else has found the same thing with any other tracks ,where you just need to find the right setting to bring out the best in a song.Alizee or otherwise ?

Bow to your knees and repent if you please.


I don't like Par Mon Paupieres or Decollage, but Decollage is fun enough at full volume. I can live with Par Mon Paupieres, but it's not very good.

I used to not like Abracadabra so much, but I developed a taste for the cats.

I keep her new album in my truck. I love driving and listening to 50/60 and Lillytown on my way somewhere. I listen to Phycadelics and Idealizer on my way home.

I can't stand Decollage (and I'm not a big fan of Mon Maquis and Abracadbra).

I don't understand the dislike for 50/60? I dig that song. Its the typical FUN Alizée song. Not that she is typical. :wub:

Out of the 3 albums, each one tends to have just 1 song I don't like that much. Those 3 songs are Abracadabra, Coeur Deja Pris & Decollege. They are OK songs but I usually skip them.

Alizée has stated one time that she is very interested in japanese culture and that influence seemed to make it's way into that video for sure.

Well for starters Fifty Sixty is possibly my favorite song overall so I'm glad you've come around.

As for you puffyrock, Yeah I'll agree Abracadabra is only ok but Coeur Deja Pris is one of my favorites overall and I seem to be in the minority with really liking Decollage as well. :blink:

I don't have a favorite song of Psychédélices...
They're all good and great to listen in the car, at home, with your friends.... They are just great!
I'm brainwashed with mademoiselle juliette now because I bought the single some days ago and I can't stop playing it several times....

I love listening to "C'est Trop Tard" on full blast while I'm driving but I end up hitting my hand on the roof trying to copy "En Concert".:o

Yeah I love Coeur Deja Pris as well and really like Decollage too but I suppose it would be pretty dull if we ALL liked every track.;)

No problem.As I said I just needed the right circumstances to fully appreciate the track.

I keep her album in my truck I love driving and listening to 50/60 and Lillytown on my way somewhere.I listen to Phycadelics and Idealizer on my way home

That's funny.I really love listening to Idealizer whilst driving at night ! It works really well with a good covering of snow :)

From album Gourmandises I like love Moi... Lolita (I play it when I go to the job), J.B.G., L'Alizé and Mon Maquis

From Mes Courants Electriques it's A Contre-Courant, J'en Ai Marre, J'ai Pas Vingt Ans and Youpidou

And from Psychédélices Mademoiselle Juliette, Fifty Sixty (it's very good to hear it, when I drive very fast on road :D )
Mon Taxi Driver and Lilly Town

But I hear all songs cause they are ok :cool:
