Err.. have you heard of a thing called Google Translate? It's a new thing I believe.
Shut your hole!
You have no idea.

C'est fini.
J'ai bien aimé, mais…
Je pense que cela fonctionnerait mieux avec les voix dans le mix un peu, cela ressemble juste à quelqu'un qui a giflé un accompagnement de groupe de rock sur une lecture de poésie. En français.
En parlant de cela, je peux me tromper, mais je soupçonne qu'il y a une double signification, une blague, que seul un francophone très couramment, et peut-être un seul vivant dans les années 70, comprendrait pleinement.
Je vais encore lui donner des choux ★★★★ sur ★★★★★

It is over.
I dunno really. It was pleasant enough but also seemed quite half-hearted and lacklustre with occasional forays into corniness. The band were competent enough.
Now to look back at the thread and see what everyone else made of it.

What an album.
Along with Melody Nelson (a pitiful 28 minutes long) it's one his best albums.
Brief but densely rich/richly dense conceptually and musically and with a typically dubious, dissolute narrative...
Serge Gainsbourg: his like will not come again.

He never did anything wrong in actuality.
He just acted as a thorn in the side and all-round agent provocateur/enfent terrible in French culture by pretending he was.
He was no Klaus Kinski.
