Active since the 70s, Renaud has written some very controversial songs during his musical career, the most famous one (to British readers at least) praising all women as being better than men except Margaret Thatcher, saying that if he comes back as a dog in his next life, he will use her as a lampost... He is famously recovering from alcoholism with some degree of success.
The most iconic song to many French people, and possibly the song that put him on the map, was the huge 70's French hit "Laisse Béton" (the story - told with a great deal of humour - of someone who enters a bar and gets mugged for everything he owns, from his leather jacket, to his jeans, his boots, and ends up in an alley without any clothes on).
Renaud 'came back' in 2002 with a huge hit 'Manhattan-Kaboul' (featuring Belgian singer Axelle Red), comparing the lives of a Puerto Rican in NYC to an Afghan girl in Kabul in 2001. This song catapulted his latest album to the top of the charts and earned him various awards in France. His latest album was published in october 2006 and was called "Rouge sang".

La ballade de Willy Brouillard
Renaud Lyrics
C'est la nuit sur la banlieue
Willy ouvre enfin les yeux
Y s'était pieuté à l'aube
Peut-être un peut fracassé
Il se lève, se lave, se fringue
Son blouson et son flingue
Il a mal aux cheveux, tant pis
Le voilà parti
Ronde de nuit
Dans les ruelles noires
Drôle de vie
Pour Willy Brouillard
Le flicard
Baston au Voltigeur
Pas bon, j'irai toute à l'heure
Je fais pas le poids tout seul sans les potes
Pis j'ai pas mes menottes
Direction l'Intermarché
Hier soir ils l'ont pillé
Rien à signaler tout est calme
Y a rien qui crame
Ronde de nuit
Au milieu des barbares
Drôle de vie
Pour Willy Brouillard
Le flicard
Quand il était petit y voulait faire
Gardien de square comme son grand-père
Voulait vivre entouré de minots
Protéger les pelouses les moineaux
Ben y vit entouré de béton
Au milieu d'une jungle à la con
Y protège l’État, les patrons
Ceux qui refourguent la came aux nistons
Pourquoi il a choisi
La loi, pas les bandits?
Pourquoi son vieux l'a déshérité
Quand il a signé?
Il a jamais fait du mal à une mouche
Même à une noire, une louche
Il a choisi entre deux galères
Celle où tu bouffes
Ronde de nuit
Sous les néons blafards
Drôle de vie
Pour Willy Brouillard
Le flicard
On va quand même pas pleurer
Y en a des plus paumés
Où t'as vu que j'allais faire une chanson
A la gloire d'un poulet?
Ça serait vraiment le monde à l'envers
Le fond de la misère
Est-ce qu'on peut mettre de la musique
Sur la vie d'un flic?

Le Renard a fait un duo avec le Doc une fois il y est question d'un gendarme de St-Tropez qui fait du naturisme et écrit un livre sur le communisme ce son est bourré de trouvailles visuelles
