Jane Birkin & Serge Gainsbourg - 69 Année érotiqueįrom the album that brought us Je t'aime. Joyous racket from the third Babes In Toyland album, made all the more exciting by the inclusion of a cowbell in the percussion section.Ĩ.

The year PJ Harvey, Cate Blanchett, Edward Norton, Dave Grohl, Javier Bardem, Graham Coxon, Matthew McConaughey, Nicky Wire & James Dean Bradfield, Ice Cube, Christian Slater, Elliott Smith, Justine Frischmann, Jack Black, Cerys Matthews, Michael Sheen, Keith Flint, J-Lo, Jay-Z and Badly Drawn Boy were born.
