Sorry, but I feel like criticizing translations given in the previous page. 

Je t'aime, moi non plus would mean "I love you neither do I". I believed it had been created by Serge Gainsbourg but it existed before. As far as I know it was almot never used. It should be used to express  a certain kind of ambiguity in romantic feeling. I also suspect that Gainsbourg used it ironically meaning "I  love you for sex, but I don't love you". Always bear in mind the guy was altogether a genius, a junky and a sex maniac. 

@Rom is right mentioning BB (Brigitte Bardot had been THE sex symbol in France in the late 1950s and early 1960s and remains  a sex symbol now that she's 89 years old) . The first version of the video was shot in 1967 with her but BB initially rejected its publication till 1986. Her relationship with Gainsbourg didn't last long. She had time to shoot a few videos with Gainsbourg's songs.

Bonnie and Clyde

BTW, in the above photos, I noticed that Gérard Depardieu played a role in this movie. 

 

I disagree with the use of Google translate for such a song. I measured the limits of google translate when controling my English or translating Vietnamese.  The sentence  says "je vais et je viens au creux de tes reins" what means "I'm going and coming in th ehollow of your kidney or your groin." Going and coming is the typical description of smooth fucking expressed in a romantic manner. 
Likewise, "le creux de tes reins" doesn't mean kidneys although "reins" means kidneys. The same word is also used for the back "mal aux reins" = "my back hurts".  le creux de tes reins means "the hollow of your kidneys" or "the hollow of your groin", in other words your ass or your sex. French have several words for the ass. Le cul is now slang. The most common word is "les fesses". French have fesses (plural and one "pantalon" while English have one ass and throusers. "Le fessier" is used for the ass in medical terms and "les reins can also be used as above explained. 

So what Serge Gainsbourg sings is poetic or literary freedom to say "I'm fucking you" or "I'm fucking your ass". 

The above video was never allowed on the French TV, particularly at the time of General de Gaulle (and his wife who exercised a real moral censorship on the emerging television. 

 

Serge Gainsbourg came back on TV later around 1980 with Ecce Homo. Later in the 1980s he created a new scandalous song Lemon Incest (in English) that he sang with his daughter Charlotte, 13 years old at that time.  It would be too long to explain the meaning and all the stuff but the song had been very controversial. He also published another song Love on the Beat (The title is in English but the lyrics in French describe a cunnilingus and a sodomy). He probably wrote the song "Harley David son of a bitch" that he added in his record in 1979 and was sung by the bollocks in 1986. 

 

Back to Jane Birkin, here's one of her greatest songs "Les dessous chics", one of the best songs by Serge Gainsbourg. 

 

 

 

PS : Gainsbourg also wrote the song that made France Gall win the Eurovision in 1965 representing Luxemburg with "Poupée de cire, poupée de son". France Gall complained years later of the salacious allusions in the lyrics she didn't understand as she was 17 years old. Here are more unexpected versions of the same song that I found ... guess where.

hi again.  in memoriam of Jane Birkin.  my 2 favorite sodomy scenes from the movie:

The first one watch the whole thing and listen to her cries of pain at first muffled, and subsequently unbriddled pleasure... this passed for serious cinematographic art in the 1970s...

The second one just a great impromptu buttfuck in the back of a truck to the sound of the naughty song... to this day this lying flat from behind remains my favorite buttfucking position to reach orgasm...

I heard the sad news on the radio this afternoon. 


Sinead O’Connor dead: Irish music legend dies aged 56 after years of mental health battles – and 18 months after her 17-year-old son Shane also passed away

Sinead O'Connor has died at the age of 56 after years of mental health battles, her 'devastated' family confirmed.

The Irish singer shot to stardom across the world in 1990 by her heartrending cover of Prince's Nothing Compares 2 U.

It comes a year after the mother-of-four's son Shane, 17, took his life in January 2022 after escaping hospital while on suicide watch.

At the time of her death, the musician, who changed her name to Shuhada' Sadaqat in 2018 when she converted to Islam, was thought to be spending her time between Co Roscommon, Ireland, and London.

In her last Tweet, O'Connor posted a photo of Shane and said: 'Been living as undead night creature since. He was the love of my life, the lamp of my soul.

Amos Badertscher, a self-taught photographer whose stark, powerful and sometimes erotic images of hustlers, prostitutes and drag queens in Baltimore reflected his empathy for people living on the fringes of the city, died on July 24 in Baltimore. He was 86.

Mr. Badertscher’s death, at a rehabilitation facility, came after he broke his arm in a fall in his backyard, said Bill Badertscher, his adopted son, former companion and only immediate survivor.

Before his fall, Mr. Baderstcher (pronounced bah-DER-cher) had been expected to attend a retrospective of about 200 of his photos at the Albin O. Kuhn Library Gallery at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, which is to open on Aug. 30.

“He lived on the first floor of a rowhouse, completely surrounded by his photographs,” Beth Saunders, who curated the University of Maryland show, said in a phone interview. “You’d walk with him and stop as he pointed out a photograph, and he’d tell you stories about it. He’d move them around so every time I went there, they’d be in different places.”

Another show, at the Clamp gallery in Manhattan, is to open in September.

“He was documenting the underground culture of Baltimore, more specifically, the L.G.B.T.Q. culture, which was regarded by most as seedy and unsavory,” said Brian Paul Clamp, the gallery’s owner. “But he was genuinely interested in these people. He had a real personal connection with these people. His life was entwined with theirs.”

Mr. Badertscher, who was gay, found his models on the streets, in clubs and in gay bars. He was most intrigued by the young men who often posed nude in his studio for him.

“There must have been something dangerously lacking in my upper-middle class psyche because I did not find nudity, even youthful male nudity, shocking, abusive, emasculating, pornographic or subversive,” Mr. Badertscher said in the catalog for his one-man show at the Duke University Museum of Art in 1995. “To photograph the naked body is for me the ultimate dimension in photographing the person.”

That's a look that really turns me on.   Quite a few of my girlfriends back home were rather flat chested which I liked though generally did not have the androgynous look above.

so damn HOT.

 

This type really turns me on. 65% girl and 35% boy. Punky and independent and fun.

 

I had a girlfriend like this two years ago. she is one of the only girls I kept insisting to pay and she always refused. she just wanted to hang....wanted to party....and suck my cock.

David McCallum British actor who was in Great Escape, man from U.N.C.L.E and in later life the role he was most suited for Ducky in NCIS died yesterday 25/9/23 RIP

At least he had a good Innings ( aged 90) and I particularly liked him in his roles mentioned above plus in Colditz and Sapphire and Steel.

Sad news indeed ... especially as Ducky in NCIS I loved to watch him  :sad0143:

R.I.P. Ducky 

I agree with you Dan, he was brilliant as  Dr. Donald "Ducky" Mallard in NCIS, a quirky and eccentric character, portrayed brilliantly by McCallum. NCIS was never anywhere near thee same without him and Gibbs as pivotal characters.
