France Gall - Laisse Tomber Les Filles & Les Succettes

Mega-sleeze Serge Gainsbourg could always get a hit out of France Gall when he wanted. From Eurovision victory with a song about being a doll of wax to "Les Succettes" a song 18 year old Gall didn't know was actually about blowjobs. Gall didn't take to it too kindly when she supposedly clocked on, refusing to sing any of the songs Gainsbourg wrote for her. Not that this mattered, the whole of France seemed to be laughing with Gainsbourg too. Mean? Yes, but for a naive teenager in 60s France it was on the cards. Heck, he could even sing about "Lemon Incest" to daughter Charlotte nearly 20 years later.
