"Chanter pour ceux qui sont loin de chez eux" (English: Sing for those who are far from home) is a 1985 song recorded by French singer-songwriter Michel Berger on his album Différences. It was released as a single one year later.
In 1998, the song was covered by French singer Lââm and was released in September 1998 as her debut single and the lead single from her album Persévérance. The song was released two years before, in 1996, but passed unnoticed at the time. Lââm promoted the song singing it live in many French TV shows; for example, in Tapis rouge, she cried a lot after her performance. The single became a number-one hit for five weeks in Belgium (Wallonia) and peaked at number two for ten weeks in France, being unable to dislodge "Belle" by Garou, Patrick Fiori and Daniel Lavoie, stayed in the top 100 for 42 weeks, becoming Lââm's most successful single, and was certified diamond disc. Lââm accompanied by 500 Choristes sung it in a live version in 2006 on the album 500 Choristes Vol. 2.
Montserrat Caballé and Johnny Hallyday covered the song jointly in 1997 on the album Friends for Life,
Other notable cover versions include Chico & The Gypsies in the full title of the song and by Florent Pagny, Kids United and The Song Family in a shortened title "Chanter pour ceux".
