Les églantines sont peut-être formidables is the tenth album by French experimental pop musician Brigitte Fontaine and the eighth by Areski Belkacem, released in 1980 on the Saravah label. Because of its arrangements, described as almost "disco" by Fontaine herself, a sound that she can't stand^[citation needed], she has disowned the album and refused its re-release on CD, although it has been pressed in Japan in October 2008 by the Columbia Music Entertainment label.
