Background

In this album, Dalida sings once more Jacques Brel's "Quand on n'a que l'amour". She also memorializes her late lover Luigi Tenco through a cover of one of his masterpieces, "Vedrai vedrai". It includes her hit "Monday, Tuesday... Laissez-moi danser", and a patriotic homage to her birth country, Egypt, "Helwa ya balady".

The album proved to be one of Dalida's most successful albums of the seventies, selling millions of copies.
