Love some Dutronc, but not this. 'Mini Mini Mini' I'd vote for almost regardless of what the other choice was
A
is really good anyway AND THEY DON'T SOUND LIKE THEY'RE MAKING IT UP AS THEY GO ALONG

I like both, but (as much as I hate to agree with Coan), B is more on atmosphere than it is on actual substance (love the part where the guitars sound like the Velvets). A just has a little more.

Both are fun, but the kind of fun that has one foot in novelty/gimmickry. Both picks are lucky to draw each other as their weaknesses would've been exposed in other ties
A is initially appealing, but its repetitiveness soon really begins to irritate. I prefer B although there's not much to it beyond a big beat and brash Gallic shouting.

A - Ha! He's better know for Hey-sa-lo-ney, but I kind of prefer this cheery dance tune, with lyrics the Ramones would have been proud of. In fact, I was always mildly surprised they didn't do a double-speed version of this. Goofy but fun 6 / 10
B - never heard of Mr Cuntrod before, and I hope never to again. Really horrible. Endured one minute that seemed an eternity. 1 / 10

B is ok but unappealingly formulaic; i was expecting better to be honest as i like some JD. A is fun and has the advantage of being in a language i understand and can enjoy the lyrical playfulness.
A

A is kind of fun, but also kind of embarrassing. I'm youtube-labelled out, and never want to hear another non-hit pop-rock song from the sixties ever again.
Same applies for Mad Hattie Jacques.
Abstain.
