| You
don't need to speak French to
fall in love with Serge Gainsbourg's
seductive voice narrating the
story of the night his Rolls Royce
hits a young girl on her bike
and falls madly in love with her,
only to lose her. If you are a
fan of Serge Gainsbourg then you
must own this visual interpretaion
of his conceptual masterpiece
Histoire de Melody Nelson, perfomed
by Serge Gainsbourg and his wife
Jane Birkin. The entire album
is presented as one long music
video; seamlessly intertwining
the lustful lyrics and bass heavy
music with soft focus, pop art
imagery.
Also included on this disc is
a rare television interview with
Gainsbourg & Birkin during
the recording of the Melody Nelson
album.
