Julien Clerc is celebrating his 77th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed singers of his generation.

Popular singer Julien Clerc (Fais-moi une place, Femmes, je vous aime, Ma préférence, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 77th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Clerc, a cultural icon

Born Paul Leclerc in Paris on October 4, 1947, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in French history. Clerc'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 Julien hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Julien Clerc as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 77.

Happy Birthday, Julien, you're the best!
