« Ennemi juré lundi » (Archenemy Mondays!)

On this early Monday morning, we travel to France for our music choice.

 In the '60s, France Gall was a huge pop star, and a collaboration with singer-songwriter Serge Gainsbourg, made her widely known in her home country, France.

Soon after participating in the 1965 Eurovision Song Contest with "Poupée de Cire, Poupée de Son," her fame grew exponentially and she toured Europe that summer. The late sixties would soon pose a challenge for young Gall, whose songs (written by Gainsbourg) contained double-meanings and after singing "Les Sucettes," cut off her ties with Gainsbourg after learning the song's lyrics referred to oral sex.

For your enjoyment, is "Poupée de Cire, Poupée de Son," "Les Sucettes," "Toi Que Je Voux," written by Serge Gainsbourg (except for "Toi... Voux" written by David Whitaker), sung by France Gall.
