Gainsbourg/Gainsbarre







Serge Gainsbourg, a music legend in France, was the coolest agent provocateur in his music and in life.  In 1969, He wrote the  ultimate erotic song Je t'aime mon non plus which was subsequently banned by the Vatican. His house is in the area of St. Germain des Pres.  It is a shrine covered with hommages and gifts to his memory.  I left him a kiss on the cheek for luck.
