Kabaret, written with a K, like Kaas and the German term Kabarett, is a tribute to the 1930 decade, the sparkling entertainers like Greta Garbo, Suzy Solidor, Martha Graham and others.

The song "Une derniére fois" was written by Kaas, and is therefore her first ever solo written song.

With all-time partner Fred Helbert, Kaas arranged the songs "Le jour se lève", "Et s'il fallait le faire" and "Falling in Love Again."
