Cœur de pirate is the self-titled debut album by Canadian pop singer Cœur de pirate, released September 16, 2008 on Grosse Boîte.

"Ensemble"

The album attracted some media attention in the United States in February 2009 when François Vachon, a photographer from Quebec City, used her song "Ensemble" as the soundtrack to a popular YouTube video depicting his baby son playing with toys, leading to coverage on Good Morning America and a favourable review from blogger Perez Hilton.[1]

Chart performance

As of June 21, 2009, the album had spent 80 weeks on Canada's Nielsen SoundScan charts,[2] and has charted in France, Switzerland and Belgium.[3]

Awards

The album was nominated for Francophone Album of the Year at the 2009 Juno Awards, and was a longlisted nominee for the 2009 Polaris Music Prize.[4]
