Dédié à toi (Monday Tuesday) is a French studio album released by Dalida in 1979.

Background

In this album, Dalida sings once more Jacques Brel's "Quand on n'a que l'amour". She also memorializes her late lover Luigi Tenco through a cover of one of his masterpieces, "Vedrai vedrai". It includes her hit[citation needed] "Monday, Tuesday... Laissez-moi danser", and a patriotic homage to her birth country Egypt, "Helwa ya balady".

The album proved to be one of Dalida's most successful albums of the seventies, selling millions of copies.[citation needed]
