  • quite a good cover

  • They were both actors in the Off-Broadway Revival of Jacques Brel is Alive... It was an amazing show! In the show, the song was performed with more traditional orchestrations. Drew re-orchestrated it for his concert.

  • i didnt even know there was such a broadway revival of brel at nyc :) impressive for a french guy like me, there's not a lot of people of my age (25 years old) loving brel around ^^

  • It was my favorite show I've ever seen! Unlike the original NYC Brel, this one had beautiful staging and choreography. Everything about it was gorgeous, simple, but beautiful. I don't want you to think it was some over-produced self-indulgent spectacle. It was beautiful and simple, but nevertheless staged, unlike the original. See 'Sons of' in my vids!

  • Absolutely ghastly!! Do you even understand what the original song was about you singing morons? Its a song of the 60's protesting the grotesqueness of war, and the dehumanization of people born in less favorable circumstances (the poor who end up in faceless armies). Its not a rock number! Its a political commentary delivered in a lyrical way with superb orchestration, emotion, poetry in the words, many meanings, and expressiveness which was why Brel is so famous. Don't butcher Brel!!!

  • i'm from belguim and i love Brel. congratulation. it's successfull

  • This makes me want to do an entirely rock-arranged production of Jaques Brel is Alive and Well...

  • This is not a bad version, but "better than Alex Harvey" - you gotta be kidding me. Alex's version can make your skin crawl - this sounds a bit too cabaret to me.

  • Awesome!!! I saw Jacques Brel Is Alive and Well and Living In Paris in Boston in 1971. You have done an outstanding job with this song. I love it.

  • I think this version is done better than the Alex Harvey Band. Alex Harvey just sounds weird to me...

  • great cover! Rock n'roll! :)
