"Aimer jusqu'à l'impossible" (2005) is the first single from Australian singer Tina Arena's fifth studio album and its title roughly translates as "Love until the impossible" in English. The single was Tina's biggest hit in France to date.

After debuting at number 3 on the French national chart, it remained in the top five for 12 weeks and was certified platinum in February 2006. As of August 2014, it was the 68th best-selling single of the 21st century in France, with 354,000 units sold.[1]

The video for the song was shot in Paris at a variety of different locations including the Champs-Élysées. It was directed by Thierry Vergnes.
