Chaque seconde is the debut studio album by French singer and songwriter Pierre Garnier. It was released on 7 June 2024 through Columbia Records (Sony Music France).
Background and promotion
[edit]Chaque seconde was recorded following Garnier's victory in the eleventh season of the reality TV show Star Academy. It also features a duet track with one of the guests from that same season, French composer and pianist Sofiane Pamart.[1] After this album, he officially announced his solo tour, which was played to sold-out crowds.[2][3]
The reissue of the album, including four previously unreleased tracks, was released on 22 November 2024.[4]
Commercial performance
[edit]Chaque seconde sold 19,594 copies in three days.[5] In one week, it sold 32,118 copies. Garnier achieved the best start for a debut French pop album since the creation of the Top Fusion (including streaming) in 2016.[6]
The album was certified gold in two weeks,[7] platinum in four months, and double platinum in eight months.[8][9]
Critical reception
[edit]Chaque seconde received a score of 3.5/5 on the website chartinfrance.net, indicating that the album "made in record time – comes out with honors", despite the lack of striking melodies and more personal lyrics.[10]
