"Désert" is Émilie Simon's debut single, released in October 2002. The song was a huge success both critically and commercially in her homeland. In the United States, a single for the English version was released in late 2006.
The music video features Émilie Simon sitting on a bed under a lamp. She then pulls out long vines and flowers from a cut in her skin. In the end, a stranger sews back her skin with a needle and a thread. Same music videos were shot for both versions, French and English.
It was directed by Philippe André[1] and produced by Wanda.[2]
