Françoise Hardy's Vogue years have marked the history of French and international music. Even today, the 5 years between 1962-67 remain an exceptional moment in her career, the one when she exploded in the eyes of a generation that was born during or just after the 2nd World War, the generation that would be part of the May 1968 Paris protests. Hardy exploded not only in France alongside her fellow "Yéyés", but also internationally where she became the symbol of French elegance, talent and charm: the United States, Japan, the United Kingdom, Germany, Italy, Spain... no one could resist Françoise, and she recorded most of her hits in English, Italian and German. Tous les garçons et les filles, Mon amie la rose, L'amitié, Le temps de l'amour, etc. Are songs that have crossed generations and can be heard in recent movies (Wes Anderson loves Francoise Hardy and has included her songs several times in his films), international television series (The Walking Dead, Industry, Week-end family) and advertising spots (Dior 2022 campaign). All tracks have been fully remastered in 2024.
