Thanks! That's just me. The ad is fine. Sorry!

Too much explanation needed. Serge Gainsbourg must not be synonymous with erotic music. Example, this would have been perfect if it was for a tribute to Barry White, cause that's all it would need for copy. "Tribute to Barry White, March 31st."

Bad luck with the sex positions posted just 13 ads below.

WTF are you talking about? Nobody in Europe gives a **** about Barry White but everybody knows Serge Gainsburg.

I'm european, I've never heard of this Serge guy... Barry White on the other hand, rocks.

I'm french. Everybody know Serge Gainsbourg in France.
Dear Guest, it's just as if you said "I'm british, I've never heard of this Queen Mother...".

Nice art direction for a great european french singer.

Sorry, this is the same ideas like "Don Giovanni" for Festspielhaus Baden-Baden. German ADC-, and Cresta-Winner...

Guest's picture

EXACTLY!

da noodle's picture 34 pencils

I'm sorry too, Miss alescha lechner but the Gainsbourg ad have been made in late 2005 for the death anniversary of serge Gainsbourg and the Don giovanni is a bit younger ...
So it's perhaps the same idea but they made it a little before "don giovanni"

All of you do yourselves a favour and do a search for Musica Metallica - that's where the concept was stolen from
