Bécaud's self-titled 1985 album, released late in his career, features him in a late-career pop and art pop mode, showcasing his enduring vocal presence and compositional skills.

Gilbert Bécaud was a French singer, composer, and pianist, often called "Monsieur 100,000 Volts" for his energetic performances. He was a towering figure in mid-20th-century French popular music, known for his dramatic ballads and dynamic stage presence. This 1985 album arrived late in his career, after decades of international success and a prolific output of recordings and live shows.
