Quick!


a very brief post, can someone post (or send me) "requiem pour un con" by serge gainsbourg - i just heard a brief bit on another blog, and have to have it!!

***update*** - i found it!! what a groove, what a groove. . . 

****edit**** - I FOUND A COVER VERSION! a damn good one, so I've amended the post now.

thanks to ejaydee for providing the real deal - it's prime for a sampling/mash up if you ask me

Sorry, Blimpy, not me this time. Never been a Serge fan.

Shame the traffic was so bad, albeit not that surprising. I would have gladly shared this piece of genius with you. You should still watch this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7PB76jVZGkU

Dsd, I'm sure there's a Serge period out there for you, but then again I realise there is something of the Mark E. Smith about him. Oh and you're welcome to join me next time I go out, as long as it's not in that country music themed club!

that's funny - this is a different version to the one I've got, which is just stripped down to bass and percussion. I'll email a copy.

That is a strange version indeed, never heard it before.

ejaydee said...

Hold on, that's not him singing!

TonNL said...

agree with ejaydee, that's not Serge Gainsbourg, fine cover though....
