Serge Gainsbourg & Brigitte Bardot - Bonnie And Clyde

If there ever lived a man who truly deserved the moniker "enfant terrible" it was the French singer/songwriter Serge Gainsbourg. Always controversial, I wouldn't be surprised if he saw himself as kind of an outlaw figure to match Clyde Barrow, to complement Brigitte Bardot's Bonnie Parker when writing the song "Bonnie And Clyde" in 1968. It's an amazing song, based upon an actual poem written by Bonnie Parker some weeks before she and Clyde Barrow was shot to death by a posse of triggerhappy lawmen.

Watch and listen
