Bienvenue chez moi (French pronunciation: [bjɛ̃vny ʃe mwa]) is a 1995 album recorded by French singer Florent Pagny. It can be considered a compilation because it contains the singer's previous hit singles, plus some new songs. It was his fourth album overall and was released on September 26, 1995. It achieved huge success in France and Belgium (Wallonia), where it remained charted respectively for 81 and 73 weeks, including several weeks atop. There are three duets on this album : "I Don't Know", with Noa, "Jamais", with Johnny Hallyday and "Oh Happy Day", with La Chorale des Cherubins de Sarcelles. The cover version of Lucio Dalla's song, "Caruso", was released as single and became a success (#2 in France, #3 in Belgium).
