"Dieu m'a donné la foi" (God Gave Me Faith) is a popular R&B song recorded by French singer Ophélie Winter. It was the second single from her debut album ''No Soucy'' and was released in November 1995. It achieved a huge success in France, where it topped the chart, and in Belgium (Wallonia). Although it was in fact her fourth single, it is generally considered by many people as her debut single, given that the previous three ones passed unnoticed. To date, it remains her biggest success and is her signature song. This song has groove sonorities and is influenced by the negro spiritual. As the title suggests it, the lyrics deals with spirituality.〔Elia Habib, ''Muz hit. tubes'', p. 341 (ISBN 2-9518832-0-X)〕 The song was used in 1997 French film ''Bouge!'', in which Winter portrays a singer, and performs the song in English-language under the title "Living in Me". This version features on the English version of her album entitled ''Soon''. In France, "Dieu m'a donné la foi" debuted at the bottom of the chart (#49) on November 18, 1995 and regularly climbed until reaching the top ten six weeks later. It eventually hit #1 for a sole week, then dropped slowly, totalling 15 weeks in the top ten and 32 weeks on the chart.〔"Dieu m'a donné la foi", in French Singles Chart (Lescharts.com ) (Retrieved August 9, 2008)〕 It was certified Gold disc by the SNEP〔French certifications (Disqueenfrance.com ) (Retrieved August 9, 2008)〕 and is at present the 1000th best-selling single of all time in France.〔Best-selling singles of all time in France (the single is ex aequo with Modern Talking's "Brother Louie") (Infodisc.fr ) (Retrieved August 9, 2008)〕 In Belgium (Wallonia), the single was charted for 27 weeks from February 3, 1996, and spent 16 weeks in the top ten, four of them at number three.〔"Dieu m'a donné la foi", in Belgian (Wallonia) Singles Chart (Ultratop.be ) (Retrieved August 9, 2008)〕 ==Track listings== ; CD single # "Dieu m'a donné la foi" — 3:55 # "Everlasting Love" — 5:05 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dieu m'a donné la foi」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
