The time of my work with Brigitte Bardot is a blessed period. I could create two or three songs in a night. Once we were dining and I got drunk, completely conscious of what I was doing. The next day she called me and asked why I did this. I was silent, sort of “I was blown away by your beauty”. She told me: “Compose for me the most beautiful song you can ever imagine.” At night I created Bonnie and Clyde and Je t’aime moi non plus.

I’ve had a fixation on Brigitte Bardot since I was a young teenager. For me, her lips, that kind of pout, her upwardly pointing anatomy, her swayback, the way she moves, the way her hair is kind of waifish… I think of her wearing a towel or a bikini, or nude. Her characters are never embellished with elegant clothes or jewelry — it’s only her own wild elegance or sensuality.
