About France Gall

France Gall (born Isabelle Geneviève Marie Anne Gall on 9 October, 1947 in Paris, France) is an influential singer that has performed for many decades. She notably represented Luxembourg in the 1965 Eurovision Song Contest with "Poupée de cire, poupée de son"; that winning song is just one of many that she has performed written by Serge Gainsbourg. Her career spans roughly forty years, primarily in France, but she is best known over the world for the songs she that performed in the 60s, many of them a part of the ye-ye style. She sings in both French and English. Besides the highly successful "Poupée de cire, poupée de son", she's also notably sung "Les Sucettes" and "Baby Pop". In France, she is perhaps more known for the chanson songs she sang in the late-70s through the mid-80s, many of them which written by her husband, Michel Berger, who is now deceased. In 1987, she had some additional international success with her Ella Fitzgerald tribute "Ella, elle l'a". She still has recorded music into the new millennium.
