Song information
The song was originally performed by Irma Jackson in 1979 (as "You Will Forget"), then by Rgine in 1980, then by Jeane Manson, under the title "Tu oublieras". Yves Dessca, who participated in the composition of the song, had previously written some songs for Michel Sardou and for the Eurovision Song Contest 1971.
