Jacques Brel



Although no one on this site seems to know him, I need to start at least one thread a year about this fantastic (Belgian) performer. He sang in French, had the most passionate voice I've ever heard, wrote the most beautiful lyrics ever etc...(and died in 1978)

If you know some French, check him out!
If you don't, try it!

worship

He and Prince are my two all-time favourites...

I do know him but i find him too melodramatic when he sings.
Some good tunes though

Princefans don't have the right to find anything too melodramatic! You're on the site of the most theatrical performer ever! lol
