This album marks the 50 years of musical career of the singer (The debut album was released in November 1962), appearing simultaneously with a book also called ''L’Amour fou''.〔Released in France in October 31, 2012, Éditions Albin Michel.〕 “My publisher wanted another book after my autobiography which met some success,” 〔Françoise Hardy, ''Le Désespoir des singes... et autres bagatelles'', Paris, Éditions Robert Laffont, October 9, 2008.〕 she says, “and I had these stories originally written for myself many years ago. Stories exploring the pain of love. He encouraged me to rewrite them and they came out in conjunction with the album.” On the album, Hardy swings a literary connection by turning a Victor Hugo poem into a lyric. “I liked the melody, and while I generally do not like poems, this one was a marvel of simplicity. It goes: ‘Why are you coming to see me if you have nothing to tell me?’ I like that. () The album did not find a wide audience when issued in France. Radio did not play it. Radio only plays music for kids, and for an artist like myself who does not tour, well, I need radio.”〔About Françoise Hardy collected by Garth Cartwright in ''Sunday Times'', April 14, 2013, Magazine, Culture/Music section: “We love her, yé-yé-yé”.〕 In 2015, in interviews given to various medias〔RTL: June 25, by Marc-Olivier Fogiel - BFM TV: July 23, by Philippe Dufreigne - Europe 1: July 27, by Thierry Geffrotin.〕 after a serious health accident in March, Françoise Hardy announces that she has decided to put an end to her musical career.
