Smile Favorite song from each album?

I was wondering, what is your favorite song from each album?

For me it is:

L'Alizé from Gourmandises

À Contre-courant from Mes Courants Électriques

and

Lilly town from Psychédélices

Plus I enjoy the whole live album :-)

Of course, this list changes for me from month to month, but as of today, this is it. What is yours?

G from G
CTT from MCE
PLP from Psy

Abbreviations for the win, now, for me not to be lazy:

I prefer the song "Gourmandises", from her chart-toppling debut album, ironically also named "Gourmandises". As for the second album, rightly named "Mes Courants Electriques", I am quite a big fan of "C'est Trop Tard", the whole feel of it gives me that Metal-Lili aura. As for the latest album, "Psychédélices", nothing comes close for me than her somber, yet tonal atmospheric "Par les Paupierés".

I love L'Alize From Gourmandises. Hey Amigo From Mes Courants Electriques. Pas Les Paupieres From Psychedelices. I Just Love The Whole Live Album, The BEST LIVE ALBUM Out There.

Gourmandises: Moi... Lolita is my favorite by far. I consider it one of the best popsongs ever, if not the best.
MCE: Much more difficult to decide. I choose A Contre-Courant but J'en ai marre is close and I also love J'ai pas vingt ans.
Psychédélices: Also difficult to decide, I rarely listen to this album. I'll pick Fifty Sixty.

I don't know...it depends on my mood.

But I will mention one that I play often is J.B.G. Not just for the voice, but for the instrumentals. All of them. I can listen to this song over and over and over again and if you focus on something different each time, it's like a brand new song. Lots of Laurent's work are like that. Me like.

Edit: Oh and I really like how Alizée rolls the notes off the end of "beaute" when singing "Un canon de beaute".

And for an instrumental example, note how Laurent transitions from a guitar main theme in beginning to a trumpet (or synthesized trumpet) later in song. He does this a lot...changing theme or sub theme instrumentals. Same chord. Different instrument. In Veni Vedi Vici he swaps the flute for a guitar. You expect one thing and he delivers it, but with a different instrument. Sort of like a double entendre, but with the instruments.
