"Damn, dis-moi" (English "Damn, Tell Me"), also released under the title "Girlfriend", is a song by French singer Christine and the Queens[1] featuring American funk musician Dâm-Funk. "Damn, dis-moi" is the French version and "Girlfriend" is the English version. Both versions were released on 17 May 2018.[2][3][4]

The song peaked inside the top 10 of the French singles chart and was named as the best song of 2018 by Time.[5]

The characteristic harmonic basis of the song is a loop from the GarageBand software, which is provided free of charge by Apple.[6] The use of the sample was documented acoustically by Dr. Pop in the podcast ‘Auf Knopfdruck zum Welthit’.[7]

Background

Letissier announced a new tour planned for autumn 2018 and a new album, Chris.[8][9]

On 8 June 2018, the singer participated in La Chanson de l'année 2018 (Song of the Year 2018) at the Arena of Nîmes, which was broadcast on the French television channel TF1. He sang the French version of the single, "Damn, dis-moi".

Reception

The song was acclaimed by music critics and was named as the best song of 2018 by Time.[5] The magazine wrote:

Flexing lyrically over a Michael Jackson–inspired beat, Letissier wrestles with, and ultimately rejects, gender norms. In the process, [he] proves that pop’s boundaries can be just as fluid as identity—if only we are bold enough to assert ourselves as [he] does.[5]
