I liked her voice, I liked listening to her songs, and her appearance kinda made me... happy.

She was already battling against cancer for quite a while. Still, the news of her passing came unexpected to me.

May she rest in peace.

My favorite France Gall song is "Les Sucettes" (written by Serge Gainsbourg)

the phone rings and somebody says,
"hey, they made a movie about
Mahler, you ought to go see it.
he was as f*cked-up as you are."
                               --Charles Bukowski, "Mahler"

Yeah, artistically, I also prefer the combi with le méchant Serge to the latter with hubby Berger.
But, AFAIK, the relationship between Gainsbourg/Gall was, uhh, a delicate one, and, after some time, Gall didn't like it anymore.
