Taken from a concert in the summer of 1994, this album serves as an excellent career overview for singer/songwriter Véronique Sanson. Her gorgeous pop songs are performed by a number of guest musicians, including Marc Lavoine, Alain Chamfort, Michel Fugain, and others. But each song features Sanson somewhere, whether on keyboards or backing vocals or even right out in front singing. Her songs are given a moodier, more modern approach by the musicians here, creating some new versions of songs that were previously hindered by their dated production.
In 1972, Sanson released the album Amoureuse, produced by Berger, which received a warm welcome from critics. With the singles "Besoin de personne", "Amoureuse", and "Bahia", it reached the summit of the charts thanks to intensive radio play (2x Gold in 5 months). Françoise Hardy later declared that the release of Amoureuse marked the end of the Yé-yé era, as she confessed "When I first heard Amoureuse, I had the impression that every female singer, including myself, was left far behind".
