A song about wearing sexy underwear. Always a pleasure.

EDIT: This video was re-linked. The song is used in the Dutch documentary Ne Me Quitte Pas, and yes, it’s a deliberate soundalike of Francoise Hardy’s Le Temps de L’Amour. As I remember it, in the cinema, you’d hear Le Temps de L’Amour, but when the documentary was shown on tv, they could not get (or want to pay for) the track, so they made a soundalike. Responsible for that is Pascal DeWeze, he of Metal Molly-fame (great Belgian band from the 90s).
Monsieur le Vagabond
Almost forgot to pay tribute to Bobbejaan Schoepen, one year after he sadly passed away. Luckily his beautiful granddaughter Femke Ganzeboom-Schoepen already did – when Bobbejaan still was among us – with a sweet and relaxed interpretation of granddad’s classic track ‘Monsieur le Vagabond’.

Asa (slight return)
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:

Siobhan Wilson
Gee, those red fingernails moving along the strings. Two words: Forget Zaz.
Pop Bâtard XX: The Brits and the Hairy Guy
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.
