It could have bridged the teen Alizee with the adult Alizee, drawing back the fans in her age group that might have moved on when she split with Mylene.

Fifty-Sixty was a fun song and the video was playful, so it would be a good candidate for the first song on the album. Décollage second, then Lilly Town third. Par les paupières is my favorite Alizee song of any album. It is a world class song and the first time I listened to it, it really stood out.
That's interesting. It's clear how much a Music Video can turn one of Alizée's songs from good to really great, not to say Decollage would become as revered as her more famous songs if it had a music video, but it could no doubt at least provide a new way of perceiving the track.
