description: "Michel Fugain is a French singer and composer. Fugain started composing after quitting medical school. He released his first album, Je n'aurai pas le temps, in 1967. The title track was later recorded in English by John Rowles as \"If I Only Had Time\". He formed a troupe of singers and dancers named Le Big Bazar in 1972. He has several hit songs in France, including \"Une belle histoire,\" \"Fais comme l’oiseau,\" \"La Fête,\" \"Bravo Monsieur le monde,\" \"Les Acadiens,\" and \"Le Printemps.\" He achieved success as a solo act, touring extensively and making regular appearances on radio and television shows dedicated to chanson and popular music between 1988 and 2002. His career went into a hiatus after the death of his daughter, but he resumed his career in 2005, and launched the project Pluribus in 2013."
