Tellier's first album, L'incroyable Vérité (The Incredible Truth), was released in 2001. Tellier went on tour with Air in support of the album. The track " Fantino" off the album was chosen by Sofia Coppola for the soundtrack to her 2003 film "Lost in Translation". Tellier followed L'incroyable Vérité with his second studio album Politics (2005). A particularly popular song from Politics was "La Ritournelle", a string-led tune, which featured Nigerian drummer, Tony Allen of Fela Kuti fame. "La Ritournelle" was remixed by various artists, notably in Britain by Metronomy.
Since the release of Politics, Tellier has also recorded an acoustic album of his more popular songs, Sessions (2006). The album was repackaged for the British market as Universe (2006), to include both highlights from the French CD, as well as compositions from Tellier's score for the film Narco.
His third studio album Sexuality was produced by Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo of Daft Punk. Like his previous album Politics, Tellier used a single term as title and theme of the album.
On 7 March 2008, it was announced by Bruno Berberes, head of EBU delegation in France, that Tellier would represent France in the Eurovision Song Contest 2008. It was held in Belgrade on 24 May 2008. Tellier sang "Divine". This was the first time in the history of the contest that the nominated French entry was to be performed largely in English, which caused controversy, leading to Tellier pledging to increase the amount of French in the song prior to the competition itself.

There's just something about this song that just resonates peace, sadness, love, freedom, depression, forgiveness... My emotions are all over the place.
@ADayintheLifeofRia
Wow, you've said it perfectly. Feeling so much right now too. First time hearing it, it's playing now at a restaurant. Music is so powerful!
@zack5440
This song feels like a “crossroads” in life has been reached. Reflecting on how far you’ve come, and how far you still must go.
@chaboi-matty
Been listening to this song for like 8 years....still hits home every time
@brickwallpictures
This song gets so much emotion across without even needing lyrics
@lauwnus1
The best music is without lyrics
@dreg7305
Love this comment, so much truth
@dieselphiend
Heartbreaking and yet triumphant at the same time. I love this track.
@barbiethedoll5824
I walked down the aisle during a pandemic to THIS song!!! Married my Soulmate
@savagestranger
Wow, that sounds like an awesome wedding. You either have some cool family and friends, or everyone secretly thought it was weird (that's on them lol). Every wedding I've ever been to has been cliché af. Every funeral, for that matter, too.
