Plastic Bertrand is the stage name of Roger François Jouret, born in Brussels in 1954, and he'll forever be the man behind "Ça plane pour moi", a gleeful, breakneck blast of a single that became an international hit. It's pure sugar rush: a pogo beat, a bratty, rattling vocal and a chorus built for jumping up and down in a sweaty room, with nothing on its mind but having a ball.

The song appeared on his 1978 album An 1, released on Sire and Attic. "Sex Taboo" also found its way onto countdowns. He sings and plays drums, and outside the recording studio he has worked as a songwriter, producer, editor and television presenter. Belgium made him a Knight of the Order of the Crown.
