Serge Gainsbourg, Till Lindemann and Karl Lagerfeld – An interesting mix
1. Till Lindemann
When I was a teenager I found about this band called Rammstein. Someone showed me a video of Engel and I instantly fell in love with the whole band’s aesthetics.
I never really thought about its lead singer, Till Lindemann. I liked the band as a whole. When I was already a young adult and I saw for the first time live this band I started to like its lead singer.
On stage, he possessed an incredible energy, he discharged so much power and he was definitely enchanting. Only then I started to really like him.
2. Karl Lagerfeld
Ugh, I never really cared much about this guy, but one day I saw a documentary about him and he made some live sketches. They were amazing. He was really talented.
I started to like about him the fact that he dresses in a certain way, always the same, in an old victorian style, but he sells clothes that change style every few months… So, on one hand we have a guy that dresses in the same way years in a row, and on the other hand this same dude convinces million people to buy new clothes every season. If he pulls this off, I think it is incredible.
3. Serge Gainsbourg
Everyone knows about Serge Gainsbourg, even though they might think they don’t. If the lyrics “Je t’aime… moi non plus” tell you something, then you surely already know Gainsbourg.
This crazy song was released in 1969 (ha!). Everyone knows it and that’s all. But, in 2010 I saw the movie Gainsbourg: A Heroic Life, which got me really into Serge. It is a wonderful movie, if you hadn’t seen it yet I highly recommend it. It is not your ordinary biographic movie, it is surrealistic, magical… delicious!
So yeah, after this movie I started to listen all of Gainsbourg’s songs and they are amazing.
So, what about these dudes?
What do all of them have in common? A certain je ne sais qoui… And this picture, this fking amazing picture!!!
I don’t know the story behind this photo, but it is definitely very interesting since it brings together such different personalities. I am pretty sure there is more they have in common…
