Colette Deréal was born as Colette Denise de Glarélial on 22 September 1927. Her professional career started when she released a handful of EP's in 1959. Her final single releases happened in 1972. In 1961, she represented Monaca at the Eurovision Song Contest with 'Allons, allons les enfants'. It is a happy little song, quite in contrast with the other three songs on this EP that sound a lot less accessible. At the close of voting, it finished in 10th place in a field of 16 competitors.
Colette passed away on 12 April 1988.
