The lyrics to this song were written by Balavoine in under an hour. Originally intended to be called "J'voudrais bien réussir ma vie" (in reference to Charles Aznavour's song "Je m'voyais déjà"), the title was later changed to "Le chanteur". It is an account of the life of a fictional singer. The song's single/"45" format saw massive commercial success, for which the song was given a gold record award.
