"Bonjour, pardon, merci" (lit. 'Hello, sorry, thank you') is a song by Canadian singer Celine Dion, released on 3 July 2026 through Sony Music. Written by Ycare and Renaud Rebillaud, the track was produced by Rebillaud. The song was inspired by the Hawaiian practice of Hoʻoponopono, whose morning recitation—focused on forgiveness, gratitude, and emotional release—helped shape its thematic direction. It follows the April 2026 release of "Dansons". Both songs will also be included on a 12-inch vinyl, available on 4 September 2026, shortly before the start of Dion's Paris concert residency. The single reached number one in Quebec.[1][2][3]
Music video
An animated lyric video for the song, created by Chinese-Canadian motion artist Yoho Yue, premiered alongside the track on 3 July 2026.[4]
