Editor's note

Zazie, a French pop songwriter with a sharp pen

A singer who turned personal lyrics into radio hits, from 'Speed' to 'Je tourne'.

If you want to hear her at her most straightforward, try 'J'envoie Valser'. For something a little quieter, 'Des Rails' holds up.

She writes songs that feel like conversations, not just pop tunes. 'J'envoie Valser' and 'Speed' became staples on French radio because they sounded honest, not polished. Her 2001 album 'La Zizanie' got people talking with its direct lines about how relationships actually work.

She started with 'Je, tu, ils' in 1992, then broke through a few years later with 'Zen' and the single 'Speed'. Later albums like 'Made in Love' and 'Rodéo' kept her voice in the mix, and she's worked with musicians like keyboardist Thierry Eliez over the years.
