Asa covering Gainsbourg – I’d posted this video a few weeks ago. Turns out the Nigerian-born singer uploaded a beautiful version of the song on her Soundcloud-page. For all to download. Which is nice.
See Serge and Catherine Deneuve sing (well, mime) the song here
Asa’s version is without a doubt heavily inspired by Angelique Kidjo’s version:

Quite daring to mix that 90s boy group “rock” with Je t’aime, but DJ Zebra gets away with it. Ravishing shots of Serge & Jane as well.
“He said: I’d like to offer you some flowers.” DJ Le Clown’s take on French TV’s most famous moment. Adults only, please.
High-class bootlegging by DJ Zebra who also created Middle of the Line and the brilliant Trou du Cul.
Her second album drops in May. This is a scary, yet compelling video.
