AND GOD CREATED FRENCH WOMAN series (2016)

“From one 1970s beauty to another – it’s all in the hair, the hair!!! I don’t remember Mum ever actively choosing music to listen to. She liked music; I just don’t think it was an essential for her. I do remember flicking through The Olds’ record collection though and seeing the face of Françoise Hardy on a few of the sleeves but I can’t recall ever hearing her songs. I must have done. I’m guessing.

For my stepmum at the tender age of sixteen, this singer symbolised the way into France, the start of a new chapter in her young life. She says that Tous Les Garçons, La Rose and Paris S’Eveille contributed to her haste to leave north-east Scotland (I’m sorry, I don’t know any of these songs so I can’t comment) and that Françoise and partner, Jacques Dutronc, WERE Paris as far as she was concerned! Needless to say she jumped in headfirst after her dream and lived there for 30 years. That’s the power of music.

The only song I know Françoise Hardy for is To The End (La Comedie), a collaboration with Blur, with a very So Frenchy So Chic flavour to it. I’ve been thinking a lot about beginnings, middles and ends lately, stuck here in this boob reconstruction rut, wondering how you really know when you’re at the start or finish of something. Is there a formal line in the sand that you consciously cross or are there a series of subtle, slow-burning changes that play out in a never-ending story? Good grief, I’ve gone all Françoise Hardy philosopher on a Friday. Someone slap me!

I need an early drink of The Weekend by Michael Gray to take me to the end of this rubbish week. That usually cheers me up. Bon weekend tout le monde.”

AND GOD CREATED FRENCH WOMAN series (2016)

“My body still thinks it has a newborn that really needs me (this is the only way I can describe the sensation up top) but I’m keeping on keeping on with what I was thinking about before I went out after dark this week. I had noticed that Vanessa Paradis had made sweet music with Serge Gainsbourg and my mind went straight to Jane Birkin who, for reasons that I still struggle with, the French are obsessed with. Je ne comprends pas. Explique-moi s’il te plait because it’s lost on me. And sorry the likeness is not better. She was slippery to draw.

An English girl from the big smoke, she made a life for herself in France in the 1970s and recorded the rather long-winded duet Je T’aime… Moi Non Plus with Gainsbourg in 1969. Originally written for Brigitte Bardot, who he was infatuated with, this song went on to cause a storm – as in banned – in other countries because of its sexual explicitness (not in France, of course!). Eventually it became a bit of a joke, too. Doesn’t everyone seem to be so uptight next to this nation when it comes to le grand amour?

In 1981 fashion label, Hermès, famously designed the Birkin Bag after the big boss witnessed her straw bag empty its contents all over an aircraft cabin. She complained at the time that she had no decent weekend bag. Et voilà! Iconic status symbol in the bag, with own name attached! Bien joué, Jane.

So the bottle of wine stashed in the Birkin bag is the 1970s loving, jingle-jangling Action by Cassius. Pourquoi pas? C’est bientôt le weekend, non?”
