A Fair Affair (Je T'Aime)

"A Fair Affair (Je T'Aime)" is a song by British–Swiss singer-songwriter Misty Oldland, released in 1994 by Columbia as the second single from the singer's debut album, Supernatural (1994). The song is her most successful release and was a number five hit in Iceland, while peaking at number ten in the Netherlands and number 20 in France. It samples the French song "Je t'aime... moi non plus" by Serge Gainsbourg. The music video for "A Fair Affair (Je T'Aime)" was directed by British director Jake Nava.

Critical reception
Tim de Lisle from The Independent wrote, "The tune draws on "Dizzy" and "Je t'aime", the words are like an unusually witty lecture and the whole thing is a beguiling pop-rap song." Ian McCann from NME commented, "Much of it (as the label admits) is borrowed from Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin's "Je T'aime", and the rest is like the opening of Erma Franklin's "Piece of My Heart". I can think of worse things to sound like, but this is just a shade too cutesy for comfort, despite the tune suddenly hitting a groove halfway through which imagines itself to be "Let's Get It On"." Neil Spencer from The Observer felt that Oldland's debut single "suggests she has found the slinky, club pop to fit her persona".
