[edit] Album information

The Gold rush, it's simply the demand created by the D'eux album in France and by The Colour of My Love in the rest of the world. We can re-discover other songs from her first albums. The CD format made available songs that previously existed in the vinyl format which was almost exclusively reserved to the collectors. This album has the record in the worldwide re-edition. It was distributed in many countries, under many different titles with many different covers, and by many various music labels.

Other titles:

  • Classique - A Love Collection
  • For You
  • Ne partez pas sans moi
  • Les premières années
  • Les premières chansons vol. 1
  • La romance
