Poupée De Cire, Poupée De Son

It's 1965. Luxembourg's entry for Eurovision is written by the legendary Serge Gainsbourg. It's sung by the gorgeous France Gall - who was only 17 at the time of the contest - in a enchanting, quasi-naive way that even now has the power to get one all a-quiver.

No wonder it won.

Everything about this is quite fantastic: the '60s fuzziness of the clip, the way that FG concentrates in the bridge, the orchestral arrangement, the happy accident of the backdrop framing her head...

Lovely, lovely, lovely.
