Rodéo is a 2004 album recorded by French pop singer Zazie. It was her fifth studio album and her seventh album overall. It was released on 22 November 2004 and achieved success in francophone countries. It provided four singles, but all of them were only released as promotional singles and therefore did not chart. For the first time, Zazie co-wrote all the songs on the album with the composers Jean-Pierre Pilot and Philippe Paradis. The album was recorded at a house in the Luberon in November 2003. It was released in two editions : a standard edition and an edition including a bonus track, "Mon coeur à la science", and a DVD. This DVD contains the music videos for ten songs of the album presented under a 40-minute film entitled "Rodéo indien". As the title indicates it, this film was shot in India, by Didier Le Pêcheur, who had already produced other music videos for Zazie. This DVD is also composed of a making-of and an Indian remixed version of the songs "Tous des anges", "Un point c'est toi" and "Zen". In France, the album went straight to number two, its peak position, on 21 November 2004. It dropped on the chart and totaled nine weeks, 21 weeks in the top 50 and 70 weeks in the top 200. In Belgium (Wallonia), it debuted at #7 on 4 December 2004 and reached a peak of number two for four consecutive weeks. It remained in the top 100 for 45 weeks. In Switzerland, the album was charted for nine weeks and achieved #45 in its four weeks, on 26 December 2004.
