Toutes les femmes de Monsieur G.

Serge Gainsbourg was one of the most talented, rebellious and influential French musicians. The artist adored creating scandals and his turbulent (=burzliwe) life was was full of ups and downs (=wzloty i upadki), painful split-ups (=rozstania) and profound infatuations (=zakochania).
He first got married in 1951 to Elisabeth "Lize" Levitsky. The stormy marriage ended by divorce in 1957.
He married a second time in 1964, to Françoise-Antoinette 'Béatrice' Pancrazzi.

The couple had two children - a daughter Natacha (born in 1964) and a son named Paul (who was born in 1968 when Gainsbourg and Pancrazzi came back to each other). The couple divorced in 1966.
In late 1967 Gainsbourg had an ardent love affair with the sex symbol of the epoch  - Brigitte Bardot.

The singer dedicated his beloved the song and album 'Initials BB'...

In mid 1968 Gainsbourg falls in love with very young English actress and singer Jane Birkin. The lovers met during the schooting of the film 'Slogan'.

The couple was together for over a decade. In 1971 their daughter Charlotte Gainsbourg was born. Although it is oficially claimed that Gainsbourg and Birkin never got married, according to their daughter that was not the case.

As you can imagine, Birkin's dress has caused a great scandal...
The lovers worked together on numerous songs :

'Je suis venu te dire que je m'en vais' (in English: 'I came here to say I'm going away') was written by Gainsbourg in 1973 when he was in hospital after a heart attack:

                                        

The fruit of cooperation between the father and little Charlotte - 'Lemon Incest'. The song and its clip were regarded as outrageous (=oburzające) and shocking :

After tempestuous (=burzliwy) relationship burdened with (=obarczony) Gainsbourg's addictions to alcohol and drugs, Birkin being pregnant to her third child with a film director Jacques Doillon, decided to leave Gainsbourg in 1980.
Gainsbourg's last partner was a French actress and model Carloine Paulus, known as Bambou.
The couple had one son - Lucien (known as Lulu), born in 1986.

Here is a song recorded by the mother and son - 'Ne dis rien' (in English: 'Don't say anything') with music and lyrics by Serge Gainsbourg :

Here comes the original version:

Gainsbourg was the artist of all time...To me a song that is a good image of the musician is 'Dieu est un fumeur de havanes' (in English : 'God is a smoker of Havana cigars') - Monsieur Gainsbourg - toujours dans un nuage (=cloud) de fumée (=smoke), entouré (=surrounded) par des gens..mais perdu (=lost) dans l'univers de ses pensées (=thoughts) et idées...
