Fais ce que tu voudras

"Fais ce que tu voudras" () is a song written by composer and French lyricist Eddy Marnay. It is the first and only single from Celine Dion's greatest hits album Les chansons en or. It was released in June 1986 in Quebec, Canada.

Background

On 14 June 1986, the ballad entered the Quebec Singles Chart, where it peaked at number 36 and remained for 12 weeks.

The B-side includes "Tu es là", taken from the album C'est pour toi.

Dion filmed her first French-language music video for the single in 1986. Directed by François Girard, it shows Dion at a train station. The video is available on the DVD On ne change pas (2005). It was her second music video, following the English-language "Listen to the Magic Man".

The title refers to a proverb coined by French Renaissance writer François Rabelais, later adopted as a central maxim of the modern thelemic movement in the English rendering by Aleister Crowley: "Do what thou wilt".
