"La Berceuse du petit diable'" is a 1990 pop-ballad song recorded by Canadian singer Roch Voisine. It was released in November 1990 as the lead single from his second studio album Double, on which it appears as the tenth track. It became a top ten hit in France and Belgium (Wallonia).

Versions

[edit]

"La Berceuse du petit diable" was performed during Voisine's 1992 tour and thus included on the live albums Europe Tour and Roch Voisine Live, as well as on the compilation Best Of. Voisine recorded a new version of "La Berceuse du petit diable" first in 2003 on his album Je te serai fidèle, then in 2013 as a duet with Isabelle Boulay, on his album Duophonique. Jonathan Hamard of Charts in France considered this cover version as one of the two duets from Voisine's album that one would gladly listen again, as both singers' voices go very well together.[1]
