Michael Hutchence, R.I.P, ex singer of INXS, was living downstairs in 1992.
At this time, Helena Christensen, his girl friend, rented a flat to my sister in law, Rue des Canettes, Paris 75006.
Michael and Helena were so discreet, just 2 lovers in a cozy place. I crossed Michael hundred times, especially for the trashcan mission, lol. It was quite surreal seeing this guy doing it, while he was filling stadium and selling tons of albums. He was so natural and kind. Remember that, journalist assholes saying idiocies about him. I never had the balls to invite Michael to a gig. That's stupid, because I think most of the time he was bored, just waiting Helena to come back from her fashion shot. 1992 was the time I had my first kid, Hugo, and they saw him, hold him in their harms. My ex wife had an autograph, saying lots of love. This autograph, a superb black and white picture with a snake and them naked, inspired me the beautiful snake song. The song was supposed to be a present, a private joke, to reward them. This was the first song of French Frog, my new rock and roll period, after years of jazz rock, funkadellic, ska and other style. I was just discovering how to play guitar, using this G open tuning that I never left. Is Michael the godfather of French Frog Band? Not really. But in the chaos of life, Michael was a seed of rock and love. He was this seed in INXS and in real life. Michael also changed my vision of OZ people. I love them, I heart OZ. I made 3 versions of Beautiful snake. The last one is influenced by Easy Rider album I often listen. I wanna live into this old original vynil. It's just perfect. It's also a big hug to deep America people, from the trucker to the biker. I tried to simulate the heroin effect, doing decadent rythm and putting double drums. Cause, now I think this song is about dope. But it could talk about any secret garden, secret games, we all have.

My women got me pictures of a beautiful snakeNow she's gone, I must meet you.
I told her what you do to me.
I love her as things you do to me.
Now she's gone, I must meet you
When I'm alone, don't know what I do
Oh please.
Kind regards to Helena and the Hutchence family. Michael was a good man.
