Track listing. According to Lio's autobiography "Pop Model", it was her lyricist Jacques Duvall who translated the lyrics of "Lonely Lovers", the original English-language song by French punk band Stinky Toys which became "Amoureux solitaires". However, if composer-guitarist Jacno approved the cover, singer-lyricist Elli Medeiros didn't. In the end, Duvall couldn't have his name in the official credits of the song and didn't get any royalties for it.
