Sibérie m'était contéee ("Siberia was told to me") is the first French language-only album by Manu Chao, released in 2004. This album features, along with a CD, an illustrated book by Jacek Wozniak. Hit singles include Petite blonde du boulevard brune ("Little blonde from brunette street").
Note that the title incorporates an intentional misspelling (contéee instead of contée).
The album cover includes the words (in capital letters): "…A TOUS LES PECHEURS DU FLEUVE AMOUR…", which is a pun. It can be understood as either "to all those who fish the Amur river" (a river in Siberia), or as "to all the sinners of the river Love". The French words pécheur (sinner) and pêcheur (fisherman/fisher) are spelled the same way in capitals, since the French language usually drops accents on capital letters.
