## Summary

Christine and the Queens has returned to releasing music under that name with new single “Rendez-vous avec toi”, prompting a ranking of songs spanning his career. The selection shows how Chris has used sleek pop, disco and experimental sounds to explore love, grief, sexuality, gender identity and outsiderhood.

The article ranges from the warm, slow-burning 2014 debut *Chaleur humaine* to later records that take in muscular funk, 1980s synth-pop and lo-fi sketches. It highlights collaborations with artists including Dām-Funk, Mura Masa and Cerrone, and describes the grief-shaped 2023 album *Paranoïa, Angels, True Love*. The supplied text ends partway through its final song entry, so it does not include the full ranking.
