Hi Tosh.
Did you know that that a parisian tube station is going to be named " Les-Lilas-Serge-Gainsbourg" !
That refers to his song «Le Poinçonneur des Lilas».
It will be the one just after the "Mairie-des-Lilas" stop.
Anne, France.

I have heard the news, and I think it's fantastic. Especially when you add "Le poinçonneur des Lilas" to the mix.
