	Serge Gainsbourg
		In the late '60s, he befriended the actress Brigitte Bardot, and later became her lover; with Bardot as his muse, Gainsbourg's lushly arranged music suddenly became erotic and delirious, and together, they performed a series of duets -- including "Bonnie and Clyde," "Harley Davidson," and "Comic Strip" -- celebrating pop culture icons.
		Gainsbourg's affair with Bardot was brief, but its effects were irrevocable: after he became involved with constant companion Jane Birkin, they recorded the 1969 duet "Je T'Aime...Moi Non Plus," a song he originally penned for Bardot complete with steamy lyrics and explicit heavy breathing.
		Along with his pop music oeuvre, Gainsbourg scored a number of films, and also directed and appeared in a handful of features, most notably 1976's Je T'Aime...Moi Non Plus, which starred Birkin and Andy Warhol mainstay Joe Dallesandro.

	SERGE GAINSBOURG / HISTOIRE DE MELODY NELSON
		According to my trusted French friends, Gainsbourg's lyrics are pure poetry, bestowing a level of brilliance to his music that I literally can't comprehend.
		The album is about a lecherous, middle-aged, Rolls-Royce driving Frenchman (Serge, of course) who runs into a virginal teenage cyclist-vixen (played by his young and beautiful British-actor wife, Jane Birkin, who sings on the album and appears on its cover seductively clutching a rag doll against her bare breasts —hello dolly!).
		Serge the hunter stalks his prey, and with seduction comes love, which is consummated at "L'Hotel Particulier" (and for us all to hear on "En Melody").

		First and foremost it is the album that gave us the notorious, now infamous, single "Lemon Incest," with its equally scandalous video featuring Gainsbourg on a bed with his scantily clad 12-year-old daughter Charlotte performing the song.
		It is also the only American recording made by Gainsbourg, recorded in New Jersey with Billy Rush and synth king Larry Fast providing most of the synth programming.
		It feels as if Billy Rush and Larry Fast created this sound world for Gainsbourg based on what they though he should sound like if he were recording in America in the mid-'80s, not what he did sound like as himself.

	Serge Gainsbourg
		Like other artists for whom English is not their first language, Gainsbourg has recorded multilingual versions of a song -- he did so with "Bonnie and Clyde" in 1968.
		Gainsbourg and Bardot's version is a gorgeously thick sound, with no particular climax (as opposed to, say "Je t'aime," or the return of the simulated orgasm in the 1971 "En Melody").
		The song is an uninterrupted pulse, a four-chord vamp whose cycle begins and ends each time with a ghostly whoop or shivering hiccup -- it's not an easy sound to describe.
