France Gall discography

France Gall was a French yé-yé and pop singer who released seventeen studio albums, eight live albums, eleven compilation albums and more than sixty-nine singles. She sold over 20 million records throughout her career, and achieved thirteen top-ten singles (of which three number-one singles) and three top-ten albums in France. In addition, songs by Gall have been successful in various other countries, including Belgium, Canada, Germany, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands and Switzerland.

Gall broke through in 1963 with her debut single "Ne sois pas si bête", a French adaptation of the song "Stand a Little Closer" by the Laurie Sisters. In 1965, she won the tenth edition of the Eurovision Song Contest with "Poupée de cire, poupée de son", representing Luxembourg. The song, written by Serge Gainsbourg, became a hit across Western Europe. She subsequently began releasing songs in German, including "Der Computer Nr. 3" in 1968 and "Ein bißchen Goethe, ein bißchen Bonaparte" in 1969. She also participated in the Sanremo Music Festival 1969 alongside Gigliola Cinquetti with the song "La pioggia", finishing in sixth place.

From 1973, Gall again focused on her career in French-language music. In 1978, she featured on the rock opera album Starmania, produced by her husband Michel Berger. She later had success with the studio albums Tout pour la musique (1981), Débranche ! (1984) and, her best-selling album, Babacar (1987) – the latter containing the hit singles "Ella, elle l'a" and "Évidemment". Gall concluded her musical career shortly after the release of her final studio album, France, in 1996.
