'Je t'aime… moi non plus' - Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin

The late singer and actress teamed up with lover Serge Gainsbourg for the iconic song that features her breathing heavily.

The risque record was banned in several countries and Birkin admits that she took the noises too far.

Speaking to The Telegraph in 2009, she said: “I got a bit carried away with the heavy breathing – so much so, in fact, that I was told to calm down, which meant that at one point I stopped breathing altogether."
