Loin des yeux de l'Occident is the seventh studio album by French singer Daniel Balavoine, released in October 1983.
[1] After listening to Peter Gabriel's latest album, he bought the revolutionary synthesiser Fairlight CMI and became one of the first French musicians to experiment with it.
"Les petits lolos" was released as the second single in February 1984 and describes a man's attraction to teenage girls, similar to Vladimir Nabokov's Lolita.
The second, "Revolución" describes the Mothers of Plaza de Mayo in Argentina who demonstrated against the disappearance of their children and those close to them during the country's military dictatorship, National Reorganization Process.
[5] Loin des yeux de l'Occident was re-released in 1989, and along with it a remixed version of "Frappe avec ta tête" was released as a single.
