  • shame about the rogue G :)

  • Jupiter makes perfect sense. He was the chief Roman god (aka Greek Zeus) - hence 'my beard so very long and flowing'.

    Whatever happened to classical education?

  • absolutely f*cking awesome!!!

    This won't be a popular thing to say, but I reckon this beats Scott walker, and I LOVE Scott walker.

    Fantastic.

  • who's this dude?

  • Amazing! Really true to the spirit of the song. Check out my version, which is kind of ordinary, but I fixed a few lyrics which weren't working. "Jupiter" makes no sense, for instance. (of course, "Juniper" is just bizarre, man).

  • Originally from Brel, you're right!

    Great Milk and cookie night!

  • Wasn't "Jacky" originally Jacques Brel, with this particular translation performed by Scott Walker? (I suppose I should also reference the Marc Almond version, which leads me neatly to a video response. God, I'm an anorak!)
