Well, I did briefly enjoy a mini-Jane Birkin rabbit hole, but the whole thing met an unfortunate and unexpected end.
Jane was involved with Serge Gainsbourg who was a big deal on the music scene in France for decades since the 1960s.
He was 18 years older than her. She had a kid with him, but eventually had to leave him because he was a violent alcoholic. So Jane and Serge's daughter Charlotte made some music with Serge when she was 12...

It caused a huge scandal when it came out, but Charlotte has always defended the song as "innocent" yet she admits the video was cringe. She's even played it as a closing song at her shows long after the whole scandal.
Looking into all this has lead me to conclude that there is something unbelievably wrong with the French. They seem to have a pedo culture revolving around girls primarily and it seems to really lean toward incest.
I didn't know this about the French, but thinking about it and looking back, I have to say that I've seen signs of it in the past. I never put it together though, I just thought it was a weird blip and didn't represent France as a whole. Now, I think they're super fucked up as a culture.
It's really fucking unfortunate because now I can't really enjoy Birkin anymore, she was also weird as shit when it came to inappropriate shit involving teenage boys. I was so disappointed to find this shit out. What the fuck is wrong with these people???
Serge made some bitchin' 1970s French pop too...
It's exactly the kinda shit I'd be so into. But I can't enjoy it or listen to it at all because of what I know about them now.
I guess there's plenty other '70s French music to look into though, so all is not lost. But wow, yeah, just really disappointed in these people. What a shame.
Jane Birkin's first daughter Kate Barry struggled with drug addiction and fell off a balcony in 2013, assumed to be suicide although some people doubt that. I will say that the likelihood of her being victimized by Serge is pretty high, and like so many other people who were abused as kids, she ended up using substances to dull the pain, and ultimately died from the problems the abuse in her childhood caused.
It's really sad shit, I'm disgusted. I wanted to like Jane Birkin but unfortunately, I 80% dislike her now. I can appreciate some of the qualities that I originally found enchanting about her, but the rest just totally ruins it.
What the fuck is wrong with the French??
Whatever. Fuck 'em all.
