France Gall (born Isabelle Geneviève Marie Anne Gall on 9 October 1947 in Paris, France) is a popular French yé-yé singer.
Gall was married to, and had a successful singing career in partnership with, French singer-songwriter Michel Berger.
Gall's father was lyricist Robert Gall, and her mother, Cécile Berthier, was the daughter of Paul Berthier, co-founder of Petits Chanteurs à la Croix de Bois. (This made her cousin to the guitarist Denys Lable and the composer Vincent Berthier de Lioncourt, as well as niece to Jacques Berthier.) She was the sole daughter in the family and had two brothers named Patrice and Claude.
In spring 1963, Robert Gall encouraged his daughter to record songs and send the demos to a musical publisher, Denis Bourgeois. That July, she auditioned for Bourgeois at the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées in Paris, after which Bourgeois wanted to sign her immediately. France was subsequently signed to Philips.
At the time, Bourgeois was working for the label as Artistic Director for Serge Gainsbourg and assumed this role for Gall as well. He encouraged her to record four tracks with French jazz musician, arranger and composer Alain Goraguer.

Sur les branches immobiles
Les arbres font des rayons
Et des ombres subtiles
Silence dans la maison
Silence sur la colline
Ces parfums qu'on devine
C'est l'odeur de saison
Mais voilà l'homme
Sous son chapeau de paille
Des taches plein sa blouse
Et sa barbe en bataille
Cézanne peint
Il laisse s'accomplir la magie de ses mains
Cézanne peint
Et il éclaire le monde pour nos yeux qui n'voient rien
Si le bonheur existe
C'est une épreuve d'artiste
Cézanne le sait bien
Vibre la lumière
Chantez les couleurs
Il y met sa vie
Le bruit de son coeur
Et comme un bateau
Porté par sa voile
Doucement le pinceau
Glisse sur la toile
Et voilà l'homme
Qui croise avec ses yeux
Le temps d'un éclair
Le regard des dieux
Cézanne peint
Il laisse s'accomplir le prodige de ses mains
Cézanne peint
Et il éclaire le monde pour nos yeux qui n'voient rien
Si le bonheur existe
C'est une épreuve d'artiste
Cézanne le sait bien
Quand Cézanne peint
Cézanne peint
