'''[[Literary Allusion Title|The Divine Comedy]]''' is a British [[Baroque Pop]] band fronted by Neil Hannon.
 
The first incarnation of the band dates from 1989 when Hannon and two other musicians had released an album called ''Fanfare for the Comic Muse''. The album flopped and the band split up. In 1993 Hannon started over with what is considered the official first Divine Comedy album, ''Liberation''. Though sales were modest in Britain, Hannon's quirky, intellectual and gently self-ironic style earned him a fair bit of success abroad, especially in France. This early fame across the Channel resulted in Hannon working on and off throughout the following years for the French music newsmagazine ''Les Inrockuptibles'', conducting interviews of such singers as [[Pulp (band)|Jarvis Cocker]] and [[Bjork|Björk]].
