Pirate Jenny - Ashley Wool 4.6.10

The classic song from "The Threepenny Opera." Music by Kurt Weill, original lyrics by Bertoldt Brecht, and translation by Jeremy Sams (for the Donmar Warehouse).

It looks like I'm one of the only ones on YouTube who's used the Sams translation, but that's the one I know, and I love it, and it works in context.

From Seth Bisen-Hersh's talent show at Don't Tell Mama. Who's Seth? GO FIND OUT, he's awesome.

Foamy rocks! :-)

@whitebishop1 Absolutely! I would rather deal with Foamy as a customer than the creepy old men any day of the week! Of course, ultimately, I'd rather be performing full-time, but meanwhile, I live my life secure in the knowledge that my hard work gets elite society up and running in the morning with a freshly-brewed cup of wondrous coffee. :-D
