France recently lost one of its most famous singers and artists of the 1960s, Jane Birkin, who captivated the masses with her voice and few film appearances, passed away at the age of 76, after seducing her voice for several decades.
A woman born in Lodres on December 14, 1946, had a turning point in her life when she met the singer Serge Gainsbourg, who gave her the opportunity to perform his song “Je t’aime moi non plus” in a duet in 1968.

As El Financiero reveals, Jane Birkin was added to the equation when Gainsbourg broke up with Brigitte Bardot.
The song would soon become one of the most popular in France and much of Europe, in addition to being one of the most controversial, the Vatican considered it obscene and the BBC banned it.
Nevertheless, Birkin did not regret recording the song, and in an interview with El Mundo he said: “We don’t regret it, on the contrary. I want that song playing when I die.”

Despite her success as a singer and actress, Jane Birkin’s life was not without problems. In the past years, the singer took several exits from the stage due to health problems until her guardian found her dead in her home in Paris, France.
Although the official cause of her death has not been revealed, her fans and followers will remember her for her talent, beauty and passion for music and acting, as indicated by President Emmanuel Macron when he said goodbye to her on Twitter.
