If You Listen is a studio album of the French singer Françoise Hardy. That is her fourth and final album in English (an exception: "Brûlure" (B1) is in French-language). Like many of Hardy's earlier albums, it was released with no title, except for her name on the cover. It was released in France in septembre 1972, on LP, Kundalini (KUN 65057); since its French reissue in 2000, it bears the title of its most commercially successful song: "If You Listen".
