...Gainsbourg doesn't have a straight answer, but she says the graphic scenes didn't faze her. "I felt more naked crying and howling than I did showing my bottom," she explains. Then again, her father did give her an early education in provocation. His infamous 1969 duet with Birkin, "Je T'Aime ... Moi Non Plus," was banned by the Vatican because of its salacious lyrics and feigned orgasms. And in 1984, he recorded "Lemon Incest," a duet in which he and a 13-year-old Charlotte sing that "the love that we will never make together is the most...

...recorded the duet "Lemon Incest" with your father, which critics said encouraged pedophilia and incest. Were you aware that the song would generate controversy?

...closed with an endearing mess of a set. Mick Jagger skittered across the stage but failed to set it alight on "Gimme Shelter," and the less said of U2's duet with the Black Eyed Peas, the better. What was lovable was Bono's willingness to make a go of it on a rousing "Because the Night" with Patti Smith and Springsteen. But in the end, it was less a great concert than a concert of greats...

...strumming, melancholy strings, and stunning vocal harmonies, is the album’s clear standout, sounding like the best ’70s soft rock gem never written. “Do You Know Me” and “Half Of My Heart,” a duet with country-pop it-girl Taylor Swift, surround guitar melodies with light atmospherics and layered vocals, while “Friends, Lovers Or Nothing,” “Perfectly Lonely,” and the admittedly out-of-place cover of Robert Johnson-by-way-of-Cream?...
