Francis Christian Cabrel ({{IPA|fr|fʁɑ̃sis kʁistjɑ̃ kabʁɛl}}; born 23 November 1953) is a French singer-songwriter, composer and guitarist.{{Cite book|title=La chanson française depuis 1945: intertextualité et intermédialité|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Wa84AQAAIAAJ&q=%22Francis+Cabrel%22|isbn=978-3-89975-135-2|last1 = Enderlein|first1 = Isabelle|year = 2008| publisher=M. Meidenbauer }} Considered one of the most influential French musical artists of all time, he has released a number of albums falling mostly within the realm of folk, with occasional forays into blues or country. Several of his songs, such as "L'encre de tes yeux", "Je l'aime à mourir", "Petite Marie", "La Dame de Haute-Savoie", "Encore et encore", "Il faudra leur dire", "Sarbacane", "C'est écrit", "Je t'aimais, je t'aime, je t'aimerai" and "La corrida", have become enduring favourites in French music. Since the start of his career, Cabrel has sold over 25 million albums.

His first hit song was "Petite Marie" in 1974, which was about the woman who soon became his wife, Mariette.Source in French: Perrine Stenger for Voici. 8 April 2015. His song "Je l'aime à mourir" was covered by Shakira; this version, both sung in French and Spanish, became a major hit single.[http://www.voici.fr/news-people/actu-people/francis-cabrel-les-secrets-de-son-couple-devoiles-557573 Francis Cabrel : les secrets de son couple dévoilés] His song Edition Spéciale was featured in the 1987 film Broadcast News starring Holly Hunter, Albert Brooks and William Hurt.

Although Francis Cabrel is best known as a French-speaking singer, he also sings in Spanish ("La quiero a morir", "Vengo a ofrecer mi corazón"), and even a little in Occitan ("Giors", "Rockstars du Moyen Âge") and Italian.

An unauthorised biography was published in 2015. Cabrel, who is one of the most private French singers, attempted to have the book suppressed.Source in French: Marc Fourny for Le Point. 30 April 2015.
