Made in Love is a 1998 album recorded by French pop singer Zazie. It was her third studio album and was released on 11 May 1998. It achieved success in francophone countries, although it was not as so successful as Zazie's next albums. It provided five singles (two of them were only released as promotional singles) but, except for "Tout le monde" (#23 in France), they remained at the bottom of the chart: "Tous des anges" (#87 in France), "Ça fait mal et ça fait rien" (#75 in France).

Background, singles and chart performances

The album was produced by Ali Staton, Pierre Jaconelli and Zazie. It was scheduled to be published on 5 May 1998 but was delayed to avoid a release at the same moment as Pascal Obispo's live album. Obispo didn't compose for Made in Love but had worked on a song entitled "Amazone", which was not eventually included in the track listing.

The music video for "Ça fait mal et ça fait rien", the second single, was censored on television because of its violent content. It presented several couples in which the husband was unfaithful and the wife has different reactions that lead in some case to murder. Part of the music video was subtitled in English-language. "Femmes téfales" deals with liar and strategic women.

In France, the album debuted at a peak of number three on 16 May 1998. It dropped rather quickly and remained for 29 weeks in the top 50. In Belgium (Wallonia), it was ranked for 39 weeks in the Ultratop 50, including a peak at 17 in its third week, on 13 June 1998.
