After the huge success of her first two studio albums, Kaas decided to perform a series of concerts across the world : the
Scène de vie tour. There were 210 concerts, 650,000 spectators in 13 countries, including
Japan,
Canada and the
USSR, where she sang in
Moscow and
Leningrad. It was recorded across two days between May 12 and 19, 1990, at Zénith of Paris (France). The album contains many songs from
Mademoiselle chante... and
Scène de vie, plus a few new songs, such as "Lily Marlène". The hits "Mademoiselle chante le blues" and "Quand Jimmy dit" were performed in an extended version. The original double CD included 20 tracks; the single CD issue includes the 16 tracks listed below. About 13 years later, the label
Sony BMG also published the album as a live
DVD. == Chart performances ==
