"Lettre à France" is a single by French singer Michel Polnareff that was released in 1977. At the time, the artist was away from France living in California because of fiscal and financial problems since 1973. The main title (meaning "Letter to France" in English) was therefore a plea to his country filled with great nostalgia.

Sold to 476 000 copies, this success will allow Polnareff to return to France to solve his tax problem with the justice who recognizing the guilt of Polnareff's man of confidence, always on run at the moment of judgment. However, Polnareff still owes a million francs to the tax authorities[1].
