Lio (album)

It features the hit singles "Amoureux solitaires", "Amicalement votre" and her signature song "Le Banana Split".

The album was originally released by the record company Ariola (Benelux and Spain), and Arabella (France) in 1980.

Finally, a second re-issue by Ze Records followed in 2005 with four bonus tracks, including the extended version of the main hit single "Le Banana Split", "Teenager" (the b-side of "Le Banana Split") and the Spanish version of the single "Amoureux solitaires".

According to Lio's autobiography Pop Model,[5] it was her lyricist Jacques Duvall who translated the lyrics of "Lonely Lovers", the original English-language song by French punk band Stinky Toys which became "Amoureux solitaires".

However, if composer-guitarist Jacno approved the cover, singer-lyricist Elli Medeiros didn't.
