Gainsbourg made her musical debut with her father on the song "Lemon Incest" in 1984. Two years later, she released her debut album Charlotte for Ever, which was produced by her father.
In 2007, Gainsbourg appeared alongside Gael Garcia Bernal in Michel Gondry's La Science des rêves and as Claire in the Todd Haynes directed Bob Dylan biopic I'm Not There, also contributing a cover of the Dylan song "Just Like A Woman" to the film's soundtrack.

DEADLY VALENTINE
Charlotte Gainsbourg Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To love and to cherish according to God's holy ordinance
With this ring I thee wed, with all my worldly goods I thee endow
To love and to cherish according to God's holy ordinance
You have declared your consent, may the Lord fill you both with blessings
From this day forward, for better, for worse, until death do us part
From this day forward, for better, for worse, until death do us part
With this ring I thee wed, with all my worldly goods I thee endow
To love and to cherish according to God's holy ordinance
You have declared your consent, may the Lord fill you both with blessings
From this day forward, for better, for worse, until death do us part
To love and to cherish according to God's holy ordinance
Hey! If a man can show just cause why they
May not lawfully be together
Let him now speak or hereafter
For ever let him hold his piece
As it says I am my beloved
That of my beloved is mine
With this ring I thee wed with all my worldly goods I thee endow
To love and to cherish according to God's holy ordinance
You have declared your concern, may the Lord fill you both with blessings
From this day forward, for better, for worse, until death do us part
Damn!
Can't even remember my name
You are my thing, I'm my own shadow
You are my little hurricane
Pictures are gently left behind me
Somewhere a face that I can't find
You are my deadly valentine
With this ring I thee wed with all my worldly goods I thee endow
To love and to cherish according to God's holy ordinance
You have declared your concern, may the Lord fill you both with blessings
From this day forward, for better, for worse, until death do us part
The start of the song Deadly Valentine by Charlotte Gainsbourg is a recitation of a marriage ceremony, beginning with the exchange of vows and ending with the reminder that marriage is permanent. This passage sets the scene for the rest of the song, which explores the idea of commitment and love in a different context. The repetition of the marriage vows throughout the song suggests that the commitment made in marriage is similar to the commitment made in other relationships, even if the language used to describe it is different.
The second half of the song deviates from the recited marriage vows, and the lyrics become more abstract. The singer seems to be describing an intense relationship, where one person is dominated by the other - "You are my thing, I'm my own shadow." The use of language in this section of the song is much more poetic and symbolic than the precise language of the wedding ceremony. Overall, the song suggests that love is a powerful emotion that can be expressed in many different ways, and that commitment and devotion can take many different forms.

I spent 3 hours equalizing my headphones to this song. Looped. FOR 3 HOURS!! It was shuffling, and this sh!t hit a little different than the rest.
I love female pop songs with any form of edge to em. Pop/dance sh!t can go hard af to, she frkin nailed it 👏
Also: it really a great song to calibrate you're headphones or ear buds to.
it's got the highs, the lows, the synth waves, texturalizing, well, all your sh!t. drums and the spank bass.
Its all you really need to know if you got trash in your ears.
Keep writing, plz. Finding songs you like. and living with the rest of their music they've made, for weeks sometimes of they got it, are like landmarks sometimes, certain artist can even help you through a rough patch. If you're listening to their shit all the time anyways.. dig your stuff so far 👌

I reached a point in my life where I realIzed i have nothing to pour out anymore. I feel completely alone and have no motivation in me at all. I got tired of being angry at the world for making me feel alone and I love that this song was here when I decided that. It gave me an ounce of motivation and I feel more alive, less sad. I’m greatful. This song will be a favorite for life.
