I don't know how I missed those last posts, but I did!
Sorry I didn't answer sooner.
I really wasn't ignoring you.
IMO, there are wonderful songs on all his albums (even if you don't understand the words!), but I think his most recent---"Des roses et des orties"---is one of the best. If you got "Essentiel" and this one, you'd have pretty much his 'best of' to date.
"Samedi Soir Sur la Terre" is also excellent, as is "Sarbacane."
If you like acoustic, he has a triple album that is part electric, part acoustic called "Double Tour" that was recorded live. (Not sure if it's still available).

Ooooooh, I love his voice! The accoustic guitar was nice too. It was just what I love about French music--sexy voice, languid music, gorgeous language that I can't understand--LOL! Yeah, I think I need one of his cds. I see Amazon has quite a few. The Essential one (1997-2007) looked good since it covers such a long period of his career. Any other suggestions? TIA!
