“Grow more, I want to grow more/Grow more so as not to die, not to suffer”.
And suddenly, Mylène Farmer takes up the pen.

But the first falls in love with an American model and dreams of offering her an international career... "So I found myself making an album with Mylène on my own, which I had never done in my life, says Laurent Boutonnat, who was then 20 years old and had a purely classical education.

I also did some texts, like that of
