créature...

Goodbye creature
I'm heading off
And don't me angry with me
You'll never be anything more to me
Than a pretty creature
Lost in nature
Loving a little
Much too much not enough or not at all
There I am where I don't know who
For I don't know what
You took me for I don't know what
For I don't know who
And I don't know what got into me
What got into me
To come here
Goodbye creature
I'm heading off
And don't be angry with me
One of these nights we'll see each other again
Goodbye creature
We'll see each other again
Somewhere
Out there
---------------------------------------
Adieu, créature
J'm'en vais dans la nature
Et ne m'en veuille pas
Tu ne seras jamais pour moi
Qu'une jolie créature
Perdue dans la nature
Aimant un peu
Beaucoup trop pas assez ou pas du tout
Je suis là où je n'sais qui
Pour je n'sais quoi
Tu m'as pris pour je n'sais quoi
Pour je n'sais qui
Et moi je n'sais ce qui m'a pris
Ce qui m'a pris
De venir ici
Adieu, créature
J'm'en vais dans la nature
Et ne m'en veux pas
Une de ces nuits on s'reverra
Adieu, créature
On se reverra
Quelque part
Dans la nature

I Want to F&@% YOU!
Talvez este seja o momento mais embaraçoso de toda a carreira de Serge Gainsbourg. Num programa de televisão, em que participava juntamente com uma jovem Withney Houston, Serge aparece completamente embriagado, barba por fazer, enfim, talvez a necessária fase decadente de um qualquer mito.
Que nem num momento como este perde o seu glamour, pelo menos na minha opinião. Há sempre qualquer coisa de fascinante nas celebridades que cometem actos irreverentes. Alguém precisava de embirrar com ela, de certeza que "monsieur" Serge apenas se quis antecipar. Withney sucks! (Cof cof...se o Serge tivesse ouvido dizer isto, talvez lhe tivesse dito algo mais forte ainda...ok João, para lá de pensamentos sujos :) )

about serge
Whatever you might say about Serge Gainsbourg, it has probably been said before and probably by Gainsbourg himself. Was there ever a man or woman more intent on self-promotion?
Whether burning a 500 franc note on television, writing a reggae take-off on «La Marseillaise» or appearing half naked with his 14-year-old daughter in the video for «Lemon incest», Gainsbourg always kept his name in print and his face on the covers of magazines and newspapers.
It would be a mistake to think of Gainsbourg as just a scandalous figure, a creature of the popular press. His impact on French music is inestimable, and his admirers include many who found his lifestyle objectionable. With over 200 songs recorded by everyone from Juliette Gréco and Yves Montand to Alain Chamfort and Vanessa Paradis, Serge Gainsbourg reached an audience that spanned generations and musical eras.

E porque é que aparece este blog?
Porque a Lisa e o João, quando trabalhavam juntos, passavam o dia todo a ouvir Serge Gainsbourg e a ver vídeos dele na Internet. Por isso, agora vão começar a por aqui muitas coisas sobre ele. :) Lisa, passo-te a palavra!
