Actress, singer, and style icon Jane Birkin had a definitive influence on culture in the '60s and beyond, starting her career with roles in art house films like Blow-Up and Wonderwall and making a musical mark with her breathy, mysterious vocals on collaborative tracks with Serge Gainsbourg. Her romantic and creative partnership with Gainsbourg yielded classic lounge pop albums like 1969's Je T'Aime... Moi Non Plus (the title track of which was banned from radio in several countries for being too sexually explicit, but still managed to top the charts in the U.K.) and 1971's Histoire de Melody Nelson. Birkin had a long and fruitful life in both music and film well after she and Gainsbourg parted ways in 1980, touring regularly and releasing albums of her own songs like 2008's Enfants d'Hiver.
