These are my favorite Alizee covers so far.
Il Jouait Du Piano Debout
Dis Lui Toi Que Je T'aime
La Javanaise
However, the one song I wish she'd do cover on is the 1946 French classic "Le Vie En Rose" by French singer Édith Piaf.

Aretha Franklin, Bing Crosby, Celine Dion, Donna Summer, Grace Jones, La Toya Jackson, Luciano Pavarotti, Tony Bennett and French singer Patricia Kaas were just some of the more than 40 artists throughout the world who have covered this beautiful song. This was my favorite French song before I discovered Alizee.
Below, IMO, are the two best covers so far:
Grace Jones (Intro is a little bit long. Go to 2:20 to skip it).
