Les Démons De Minuit
"Les Démons de minuit" is the debut single of the French band Images. Released in June 1986, it was the first single from their first album ''Album d'Images''. Very popular, the song was a huge hit in France and the main summer hit of 1986, peaking at number one for 13 weeks. Background and writing "Les Démons de minuit" was also released as an English version (by the same group), titled "Love Emotion". It was very difficult for the group to find a record company agreeing to sign a contract with them, because at the beginning nobody believed in the potential of the song.
