FAREWELL TO A LEGEND.
i feel genuinely sad about her passing. she left us with so many fantastic songs, especially form the 60's and 70's. without her there would be no blowupdoll

i know nobodys favourite france gall era is the 70s/80s michel berger one, but i thought you might have a mild interest in this - their music together has been made into a musical currently playing in france. watching this hasn't made me whip out my credit card for a ticket but it was nice to see france at the end of the clip being appreciated.
