Ma philosophie

"Ma philosophie" is a 2004 song recorded by Amel Bent as her debut single, from her album Un Jour d'été.

The lyrics have a quasi-poetic feel to them, as figurative language is sparsely used, such as the metaphor "Je suis l’as qui bat le roi" and the alliteration of the "i" sound in "injures incessantes".

The song was covered by Karen Mulder, Corneille, Lorie, Sandrine Kiberlain, Julie Zenatti and Hélène Ségara for Les Enfoirés' album 2006: Le Village des Enfoirés (seventh track).

[2] The song has been parodied by Paral & Piped studio, under the title "Ma Seule Envie".

[7] It appeared in the top ten for 16 weeks, was certified Gold disc,[8] and was the third best-selling single of 2004.
