    Yup, I dig the smooth, sophisticated old bugger :)

    Playing Bonnie and Clyde to your woman = guaranteed shag.

    Reminds me of the Velvet Underground! He was a great musician for the little I know him! His daughter came up with something recently, not bad at all!

    Whenever I ask my older French co-workers what they think about Gainsbourg I always get looks of disgust or "vieux cochon", which of course makes me want to check him out even more.

    Must have been just the middle-aged Quebecers I worked with ;) Their taste in music was questionable anyways.
