What does /mu/ think of Serge Gainsbourg? Is he an absolute madman?

French people love the idea of free speech so much that they actively applaud and reward dudes for being the absolute biggest scumbag perverts they can manage to be.

He was a genuine madman who just didn't give a fuck, or was too drunk to care.

Are you french ? A huge part of listening to Gainsbourg is his lyricism.

Try listening to Love On The Beat, it's a more easy listening experience.

Some sweet, sweet saxophone in there

Et chaque fois les feuilles mortes
Te rappellent à mon souvenir
Jour après jour les amours mortes
N'en finissent pas de mourir
