Biography
Philippe Chatel (born 23 February 1948) was a French singer and songwriter. He was born Philippe de Châteleux de Villeneuve-Bergemont de Duras in Paris, France. As a young man, he got his start working as a courier for French Caribbean singer and comedian Henri Salvador. Philippe Chatel started writing and performing his own songs, recording his debut album Análisis in 1977. The song "J't'aime bien Lili" was his first commercial success in the same year, followed by a string of singles which include “Tout quitter mais tout emporter” and the darkly playful tune "Mister Hyde." In 1979 Philippe Chatel broke through to worldwide success with Émilie Jolie, a children's comedy musical he dedicated to his daughter (it was later re-adapted in 1997, and then turned into an animated film by Philippe Chatel himself in 2011). The success of the musical and its accompanying album featuring Georges Brassens, Sylvie Vartan, Françoise Hardy, Julien Clerc, Alain Souchon, Laurent Voulzy, Yves Simon, Eddy Mitchell and Louis Chedid made Philippe Chatel a household name within the French music scene. He went on to release critically acclaimed albums such as Sentiments (1978), Peau d'Âme (1984), Anyway (1994) and Renaissance (2016). In February 2021, Philippe Chatel died of a heart attack at age 72.
