Schmoll Eddy Mitchell is celebrating his 84th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed singers of his generation.

Popular singer-actor Eddy Mitchell (La dernière séance, Pas de Boogie Woogie, Sur la route de Memphis, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 84th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Mitchell, a cultural icon

Born Claude Moine in Paris on July 3, 1942, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in French history. Mitchell's not just a great singer, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Eddy hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Eddy Mitchell as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 84.

Happy Birthday, Eddy, you're the best!
