In this album, the first with Jane Birkin, is the controversy "Je t'aime ... moi non plus", music originally composed for Brigitte Bardot, who denied predicting the controversy about it.

No fim, você conclui que é pop experimental (Hoje em dia é muito fácil definir as coisas, diz aí). :: Golden Phone [...]
