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".

Laisse Béton
Renaud Lyrics
J'étais tranquille j'étais peinard
Accoudé au flipper
Le type est entré dans le bar
A commandé un jambon beurre
Et y s'est approché de moi
Et y m'a regardé comme ça
T'as des bottes, mon pote
Elles me bottent
Je parie que c'est des santiags
Viens faire un tour dans le terrain vague
Je vais t'apprendre un jeu rigolo
A grands coups de chaînes de vélo
Je te fais tes bottes à la baston
Moi je lui dis, laisse béton
Y m'a filé une beigne
Je lui ai filé une torgnole
Y m'a filé une châtaigne
Je lui ai filé mes grolles
J'étais tranquille j'étais pénard
Accoudé au comptoir
Le type est entré dans le bar
A commandé un café noir
Pis y m'a tapé sur l'épaule
Et m'a regardé d'un air drôle
T'as un blouson, mecton
L'est pas bidon
Moi je me les gèle sur mon scooter
Avec ça je serai un vrai rocker
Viens faire un tour dans la ruelle
Je te montrerai mon Opinel
Je te chouraverai ton blouson
Moi je lui dis, laisse béton
Y m'a filé une beigne
Je lui ai filé un marron
Y m'a filé une châtaigne
Je lui ai filé mon blouson
J'étais tranquille j'étais pénard
Je réparais ma mobylette
Le type a surgi sur le boulevard
Sur sa grosse moto super chouette
S'est arrêté le long du trottoir
Et m'a regardé d'un air bête
T'as le même blue jean que James Dean
T'arrêtes ta frime
Je parie que c'est un vrai Lévis Strauss
Il est carrément pas craignos
Viens faire un tour derrière l'église
Histoire que je te dévalise
A grands coups de ceinturon
Moi je lui dis, laisse béton
Y m'a filé une beigne
Je lui ai filé une mandale
Y m'a filé une châtaigne
Je lui ai filé mon futal
La morale de c'te pauvre histoire
C'est que quand t'es tranquille et peinard
Faut pas trop traîner dans les bars
A moins d'être fringuer en costard
Quand à la fin d'une chanson
Tu te retrouve à poil sans tes bottes
Faut avoir de l'imagination
Pour trouver une chute rigolote.
