Great to hear the Franz Ferdinand/Marion Cottilard collaboration, so though a link to FF's cover of Gainsbourg's Sorry Angel was in order.
Like the best cover versions, it reimagines the song into not only different from the original, but the act doing the cover put something of themselves into it. It sounds like a FF song in a way, not just a simple homage to Gainsbarre.
And the female vocals? Jane Birkin of course. Nice touch, Birkin's always been at the forefront of re-inventing Gainsbourg's art for a new audience.
Taken from the Monsieur Gansbourg Revisited CD from 2006.
