"On s'attache" is a 2007 song recorded by French singer Christophe Maé. It was his debut single of his solo career, from his second album Mon paradis. Released in May 2007, the song was successful in France and Belgium (Wallonia), and hit a moderate success in Switzerland.

Song information

The song was composed by Lionel Florence, who had also previously worked for various artists such as Nolwenn Leroy, and Christophe Maé himself. The song, which deals with a love relationship in which the man does not want to engage in marriage, was also recorded in a live version in 2008 and was included on Maé's live album Comme à la maison, where it is the fourth track.^[1]

In 2008, "On s'attache" won a NRJ Music Awards in the category 'Francophone song of the year'.

In France, the single was directly number-one on the SNEP chart, but dropped very quickly, remaining for four weeks in the top 50 and six weeks in the top 100, because the single was released in a limited edition.^[2] On the other hand, the single was the third most downloaded one of 2007.^[3]

In Belgium (Wallonia), "On s'attache" was charted for 38 weeks in the Ultratop 40, including a peak at #4 on June 16 and July 7, 2007.^[4]
