"C'est la Vie" is a song by Irish girl group B*Witched.[1] It was released on 25 May 1998, through Epic and Glowworm as the group's debut single from their self-titled debut studio album B*Witched.

The song was nominated for two Ivor Novello Awards, best selling UK single, and best song musically and lyrically.[2] The song contains a number of double entendres and was once referred to as "smutty" in an interview.[3] The music video, directed by Alison Murray, had a budget of around £60,000 and features the group dancing energetically in a field of flowers with a dog, while playfully teasing a boy.
