Franchement, c'est un des meilleurs disques dans ma collection. Achetez-le. Si j'ai du choisir une bande son pour ma vie, c'est ce disque là que je choisirais.

Man this is a lecherous record, but lechery never felt so good. This has got to be up there as the coolest half hour of tunes ever made. You must own this. One of the top twenty albums of the 70's for sure. Really creepy but amazing. The sea change comparison is on point, but this album is much less languid, and much more intriguing and exciting. Buy it and creep yourslef out as you think how cool it is.

Add my praise to the many comments here. This has GOT to be the coolest album ever recorded. It was so ahead of its time its not even funny. Gainsbourg is a superb artist, anything you can find of his is worth listening to, but Melody Nelson is his masterpiece. Its by turns funky, haunting, leering, dirty and beautiful beyond description. The coolness factor on this one is sky high. J'taime ce des disques, son merveilleux!!!
