Love On The Beat

Serge Gainsbourg's 1984 album "Love On The Beat" is a bold and controversial exploration of sexuality and funk-infused rock. Collaborating with American musicians, Gainsbourg crafted a sound that is both provocative and danceable, blending French chanson with funk, pop, and synth-pop elements. The album's title track, "Love On The Beat," sets the tone with its lengthy, pulsating beat and risqué lyrics, which sparked controversy upon its release. Tracks like "Lemon Incest" and "Sorry Angel" delve into taboo subjects, showcasing Gainsbourg's unapologetic approach to his artistry. With its funk-heavy sound and explicit content, "Love On The Beat" is a daring and unforgettable addition to Gainsbourg's discography, released under Universal Music Division Mercury Records.
