Alizée - Final Jeopardy - the flip side

Alizée - Final Jeopardy
It's that time again! Another round of Alizée - Final Jeopardy (and the crowd goes wild)

During the 1950's and 60's vinyl 45 rpm records ruled the music world. They are made 7" in diameter and the general practice was to have an "A" side and a "B" side.

The A-side featured a song that was designated a future hit and the B side was usually a secondary song. Occasionally the B song would become the more popular song. "Maggie Mae" was the B side to Rod Stewart's A side "Reason to Believe" or Gloria Gaynor's hit "I will survive" was a B side song. Even more rarely both sides become hits as in Queen's "We Are The Champions" and "We Will Rock You".

In Alizée's "Une Enfant Du Siecle" collectors boxed set, there were five 45 rpm vinyl records included.

And the answer is...
The first single from the album is "Les Collines" and is listed as side "A" on its 45 record. This song is listed as the "B" side.
