I saw a production of "Alive and Well" about five years back at the Zipper in the west 30s, that included a completely different translation of the Brel original. I remember that the first two lines of the chorus were "Let us sing, let us dance, write graffiti on the wall."

@UM ty - was going by the originals project website

YW Now let's talk about the song that was the basis for Bobby Darin's "Beyond the Sea!"
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:33am Doug Schulkind:

My vote for best Brel cover ever: Nina Simone's "The Desperate Ones" (Les Désespérés)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:34am Uncle Michael:

Scott Walker was WAY ahead of the pack, singing Brel in English.

Now that is a bundle of laughs.

Hey ducky.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:35am Jeff Golick:

That was a great set, Doug!

@Doug: Oh, I know! Saw it on your recommendation and felt the same sadness...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:36am Parq:

@Doug, others, you should check out Camille O'Sullivan's Brel covers, including a castration-anxiety-inducing "Next" and a brilliantly exuberant "Jackie".
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:37am Brian in UK:

@UM love Joanna, that is Brel?
By the way must listen to your Tuesday show. The first part with rock operas, terrible name. Bought Nirvanas epic when it came out. This is where a CD does not do justice to the artwork.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:38am Brian in UK:

Ooops meant Jackie.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:40am Doug Schulkind:

@Jeff G
Thanks for that great comment!

@Parq
Wow, gotta hear that.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:40am Uncle Michael:

Scott's "Jackie" is a favorite of mine. I like that Nirvana record!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:40am Parq:

Brian, assuming we are talking about the "Cute cute cute in a stupid-ass way" song, yes, it's a Brel.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:41am Doug Schulkind:

The Sensational Alex Harvey's "Next" is pretty harrowing and great.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:43am Brian in UK:

@parq Guess that sums up our DJ!!!!

@UM The Alan Bown covered 'We Can Help You' and they wrote 1999 well before the blessed one.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:44am Parq:

Doug, yeah, like that, only with a beautiful woman, and you can practically feel her nails digging into you as she sings it.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:45am Doug Schulkind:

@Parq
Reading your comment whilst looking at the playlist gif is a bit unnerving.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:45am Hugo:

That sounds like the Upsetter!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:47am Doug Schulkind:

@Hugo
Yup. Lee Scratch Perry produced it.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:49am Brian in UK:

Thanks for renewing my passport back into FMUland, Doug.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:49am Uncle Michael:

I almost chose "1999."

@Brian in UK
Don't forget, you need a booster on that diptheria shot.

Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:54am Brian in UK:

Thanks, boss, will check with vet

@UM think Brigitte Bardot recorded 'Wings of Love' as well. 'He wants to be in love he wants to be a butterfly'. How Sixties. Love it.
  11:55am ttrish:

Joe fill-in on the drummer stream. And a Gateway to Joy - Donna fill in for Bryce on the main stream. Good thing I have two ears. Or, heh.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:57am Hugo:

On the subject of the Upsetter, this is one of the very best dub albums ever made:

www.discogs.com...

It has come in several versions, but this is the one I have (I think). Classic!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:57am Doug Schulkind:

Donna B!

Avatar 11:57am doca:

Thanks for the wonderful show, Doug, switching in to Bryce on the "normal" WFMU stream now. Bye-ya!
