Singles

These 2 songs were recorded and released prior to the album. "Quand je n'aime plus je m'en vais" became a minor hit due to extensive promotion on french and German television as for Nostalgie it is a cover of Marty Balin's hit song Hearts that Dalida was very fond of.

Danza is an Italian Neo-Disco song very early 80's recorded by Dalida and released in France and Europe. Dalida filmed a Video Clip for the song involving ballroom dancing. Only one performance of the song exist in Belgian TV shows Chansons a la carte.

Jouez Bouzouki is the biggest hit of this album as it was hugely successful in the Middle East and especially in Lebanon where it was a huge hit due to extensive radio airplay. Dalida performed the song Live during many TV appearances.

This single was released in 1982 to support the French Football team in the World cup and it was not part of the album. This single eventually went Gold and Dalida performed this hit on the most important TV shows and filmed a video clip for it involving images from matches won by the french football team.
