Promotion
"Je vais vite" became Lorie's very first club hit; its style was compared to Kylie Minogue's and it officially became Lorie's first break into the dance scene. Lorie helped promote the song by performing on shows such as Star Academy (France) and Hit Machine. She was also a guest on multifarious French shows between October 2007 and January 2008. Many magazines interviewed Lorie who talked about the song and its remixes, her style's metamorphosis and her new look. The following single, "Play", didn't achieve the same success.
Music video
The music video for "Je vais vite" became a favorite on many music channels; it featured dancers performing the then-new dance tecktonik and Lorie dancing all along. Other versions were made available for the song's remixes. The videos aired on most of the French music channels.
Track listings
After the official physical release of "Je vais vite", a CD containing remixes was released in order to help promote both the single and its parent album.

Sales
"Je vais vite" became very successful in France and Belgium but unfortunately for Lorie, her music style change didn't attract enough fans; therefore, unlike her previous singles, it was never certified despite sales of over 73,000 copies.
