The lyrics were written by Françoise Dorin (author of "Et s'il n'en restait qu'une (je serais celle-là)") and music by Marc Dupré and Jean-François Breau. Tino Izzo produced the track. Dion worked with Izzo already on "Plus haut que moi" in 1993 and "Tout près du bonheur" in 2005 (which she recorded as a duet with Dupré, who also co-wrote this song).

Céline Dion performed "On s'est aimé à cause" during the Quebecer TVA TV special dedicated to the issue of her album D'elles.

There was no music video made for this track.

D'elles includes also another version of this song, called "A cause." It was recorded with music by Jacques Veneruso, who also produced the track. The lyrics were modified to fit the danceable arrangement. "A cause" was released as a radio single in France in late January 2008. At the same time, radio stations in France started to play "On s'est aimé à cause." As a result, "A cause" peaked on the French Top 100 Airplay Chart at number 76 and "On s'est aimé à cause" at number 69.
