"Il est cinq heures, Paris s'éveille" ("It is five o'clock, Paris awakens") is the sixth single by French singer-songwriter Jacques Dutronc, released in 1968. It is featured on his self-titled second album.
It was voted best French-language single of all time in a poll of music critics.
The classical flute player Roger Bourdin performed an essential part. In this song, Dutronc paints an evocative portrait of the French capital in the early morning hours.
