Les crises de l'âme is the third studio album by French pop singer Jeanne Mas, released in 1989.
It marked a change in writing and musical style; indeed, unlike the two previous studio albums, the music was not written by Romano Musumarra, the songs deal with society themes and the music is also much less commercial.
The album charted from February 26, 1989, debuting at #5 before climbing to #1 where it remained for 4 weeks. It totaled fourteen weeks in the top ten and thirty-six weeks in the top 40. It was certified double gold.
Four singles were released from this album, but only "Y'a des bons..." was a hit, reaching the top 13 in France.
