5.0 out of 5 stars The Genius of Serge Gainsbourg (The Originals)., February 5, 2008

By	G. Merritt (Boulder, CO) - See all my reviews (TOP 50 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

Singer, songwriter, filmmaker, poet, and provocateur, Serge Gainsbourg was a chain-smoking French icon. Best known only for his heavy-breathing hit, "Je T'Aime, Moi Non Plus" (recorded with his muse, Jane Birkin, who simulated an orgasm on the song), a recent series of "Best of" compilation discs will hopefully give Gainsbourg the worldwide posthumous recognition he always deserved while he was alive. Gainsbourg's music is a fusion of classical, ballads, chanson, jazz, kitsch, mambo, pop (in all its forms), bossa nova, rock, reggae, disco, erotic, downtempo chillout lounge, and hip-hop. His lyrics were clever exercises in Franglais triple-entendres. He lived the life of cigarettes, alcohol, and seduction depicted in his songs. While this thirteen-track 2006 compilation disc attests to Gainsbourg's musical genius, for the Gainsbourg uninitiated, I would also recommend the two-volume compilation release of Love and the Beat, Vol. 1 and Love and the Beat, Vol. 2 to complete any best-of collection. Tracks on this disc include:

1. Je T'Aime Moi Non Plus
2. Je Suis Venu Te Dire Que Je M'En Vais
3. Le Poin�onneur Des Lilas
4. Ces Petits Riens
5. Bonnie And Clyde
6. Ballade De Melody Nelson
7. Requiem Pour Un Con
8. Lola Rastaquou�re
9. Good-Bye Emmanuel
10. La Chanson De Slogan
11. L' H�tel Particulier
12. I'm the Boy
13. Sorry Angel

G. Merritt
