This is an alphabetical list of all the songs known to have been recorded in studio by Dalida between 1954 and 1987. The list contains a total of 696 songs in 9 different languages.[note 1]

All songs were released during or after Dalida's lifetime, either on vinyl or CD or as a music video on TV or DVD, except 2 songs[note 2] that didn't receive any public broadcast or release, but are internet leaked unofficially.

From all songs first released on vinyl, all of them have been eventually digitally remastered and released on CD, except 16 songs. [note 3]

All songs are organised by language and type, with brackets containing a date of first release. The songs which were first released posthumously since 1987 have two dates; first indicating the year of creation and second the year of release.[1][2][3]

The list also has extension with 18 songs that are not counted (as studio recordings) because they were either sang live and never recorded in studio for commercial release, or short advertisement soundtracks.
