It's important to add that Jacques Brel was also a great actor and even film maker (later). He was "playing" his songs on stage like no one else, living the moment with total intensity. An extremely authentic character.

Merci pour votre réaction. Brel est le diamant de la chanson francophone. Merci encore.

l'interprétation de Jacques Brel est magistrale pas seulement parce qu'il y a beaucoup d'émotions ressenties ! Brel n'était pas seulement un grand auteur, il était également un performeur, un Artiste majuscule. Néanmoins, ne pas connaître la beauté de ce texte c'est se priver de la poésie et de la richesse des mots, des métaphores de ce magnifique auteur-compositeur. Jacques Brel nous chantait ses mots avec toute sa force, mais aussi avec sa fragilité, sa vulnérabilité, son humanité ! Une grande leçon pour tous les auteurs d'hier et d'aujourd'hu

Jacques Brel is belgian and an abolute singing legend in France. Considered as the greatest among the great, in terms of story telling and emotions. This song Ne me quitte pas was elected the most beautiful song of the 20th century in France. The lyrics are pure poetry, I will post these in french and translated in english in another post. He is great inspiration for Lara (and of course many others) in terms of full commitment to the story. She does prefer however another of his song called Voir un ami pleurer, she said this is for her the most beautiful song in french language and she did a cover.

I cannot help but cry every single time I hear this song. It's one of the songs that made me fall in love with my own language at a young age.

thank you this was a beatiful to my favourite singer song written of all time.

Lyrics translated in english: Don’t leave me We must forget All can be forgotten That has already passed away Forget the time Of misunderstandings And the time lost Trying to know “how” Forget those hours That sometimes kill With slaps of “why” The heart of happiness Don’t leave me Don’t leave me Don’t leave me Don’t leave me I will give to you Pearls made of rain From countries Where it never rains I will work the land All my life and beyond To cover your body With gold and with light I will make a land Where love will be king Where love will be law Where you will be queen Don’t leave me Don’t leave me Don’t leave me Don’t leave me Don’t leave me I will invent, for you Fanciful words That you’ll understand I will tell you About those lovers Who have twice seen Their hearts set ablaze I will tell you The story of the king Who died of not having Ever met you Don’t leave me Don’t leave me Don’t leave me Don’t leave me We’ve often seen Fire flowing again From an ancient volcano Considered too old It’s said that there are Fire-scorched lands That yield more wheat Than the best April And when evening comes With a burning sky The red and the black- Are they not joined together? Don’t leave me Don’t leave me Don’t leave me Don’t leave me Don’t leave me I won’t cry anymore I won’t talk anymore I will hide over there To watch you Dance and smile And to hear you Sing and then laugh Let me become The shadow of your shadow The shadow of your hand The shadow of your dog Don’t leave me Don’t leave me Don’t leave me Don’t leave me

JACK BREL L ICÔNE DE LA CHANSON FRANÇAISE...PAIX À SON ÂME....JE PENSAIS QUE LE MONDE ENTIER CONNAISSAIT LA CHANSON ( NE ME QUITTE PAS) JE SUIS ÉTONNÉE...UN CHEF-D'OEUVRE DE LA CHANSON FRANÇAISE.

"Ne me quitte pas" is considered by some as "Brel's ultimate classic". It was written after Brel's mistress "Zizou" (Suzanne Gabriello) threw him out of her life.Zizou was pregnant with Brel's child, but Brel refused to acknowledge the child as his own. Zizou later had an abortion due to Brel's actions. . In a 1966 interview, Brel said that "Ne me quitte pas" was not a love song, but rather "a hymn to the cowardice of men", and the degree to which they were willing to humiliate themselves. He knew, he said, that it would give pleasure to women who assumed it was a love song, and he understood that.

Woaouhhhh, Jacques Brel ! Superbe chanteur puis acteur. Un autre belge fantastique comme Lara, Mauranne. Ce sont des chanteurs poètes....

Omg... finally the tears came to my eyes twice: of course listening to the wonderful interpretation of Jacques Brel who is a fantastic artist but also feeling the emotion that tightened your throat. You have moved me deeply. Thank you for sharing your emotion. 🙏

Lyrics in french: Ne me quitte pas Il faut oublier Tout peut s'oublier Qui s'enfuit déjà Oublier le temps Des malentendus Et le temps perdu À savoir comment Oublier ces heures Qui tuaient parfois À coups de pourquoi Le cœur du bonheur Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas Moi, je t'offrirai Des perles de pluie Venues de pays Où il ne pleut pas Je creuserai la terre Jusqu'après ma mort Pour couvrir ton corps D'or et de lumière Je ferai un domaine Où l'amour sera roi Où l'amour sera loi Où tu seras reine Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas Je t'inventerai Des mots insensés Que tu comprendras Je te parlerai De ces amants-là Qui ont vu deux fois Leurs cœurs s'embraser Je te raconterai L'histoire de ce roi Mort de n'avoir pas Pu te rencontrer Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas On a vu souvent Rejaillir le feu De l'ancien volcan Qu'on croyait trop vieux Il est, paraît-il Des terres brûlées Donnant plus de blé Qu'un meilleur avril Et quand vient le soir Pour qu'un ciel flamboie Le rouge et le noir Ne s'épousent-ils pas? Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas Je ne vais plus pleurer Je ne vais plus parler Je me cacherai là À te regarder Danser et sourire Et à t'écouter Chanter et puis rire Laisse-moi devenir L'ombre de ton ombre L'ombre de ta main L'ombre de ton chien Mais Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas

This song was translated into English and later was covered by several artists, including Tom Jones. The English title was If You Go Away.

Well done Rollen! You are so sensitive to this masterpiece by Jacques Brel! I discovered this song when the Berlin Wall fell and we freed ourselves from the USSR; I have the same reactions as I had in 1991 in Paris; Long live love and don't lose your happiness!!!🥂

Aaaah.... Jacques Brel...such a passionate performer!👍😁🙏🤘🕊

Hello Rollen, happy to see you again here. About this song, the great Édith Piaf said that a man shouldn't talk like that, should never stoop so low in front of a woman, lol. It was a time when it was considered that a man should be a man in all circumstances and should never show weakness. Other times, other mores as we say in France. Today, the view of human behavior, the man, the woman, and their respective roles have changed. We allow the man to be more sensitive, to be able to express his emotions. Yet some young people today tend to confuse sensitivity and sentimentality. However, it's not at all the same thing. Anyway, thank you for this reaction on our late Jacques, one of the greatest singers of all time. Try "Le port d'Amsterdam" and "Ces gens-là" (there's a version in a video on YT with English subtitles for each of these two songs of Brel) and you'll fall off your chair in front of what you'll see and listen to. Artists like Stromae or Lara Fabian come from what can be called "the school of the French song." This goes back a long way; Jacques Brel, Serge Reggiani, Yves Montand, Edith Piaf (their mother to everyone in the song. It was she who paved the way, showed how a song had to live, give it a breath of life, fleeting like the duration of a piece, but make it become a masterpiece), Charles Aznavour, Léo Ferré, Serge Lama (all French singers, except Brel who's Belgian. But he lived and spent his entire career in France) and so many others came from there. It's the school of street artists, where we sang without a microphone and often even without any instrument. To retain passers-by, it was then necessary to have a beautiful voice and know how to express feelings to perfection to attract the attention of the public who passed there. If we didn't know how to do that, people passed on, and we didn't earn our living. This way of singing has remained the hallmark of the French song. Take care of yourself and love each other, guys; peace!

He wrote the lyrics after his pregnant lover Zizou, kicked him to the curb. He refused to believe the baby was his, and she subsequently had an abortion, giving the attitude he held about her pregnancy. Sitting in the "Au Rêve" bar, on the northern slopes of Montmartre from which he could see Zizou's apartment across the square, he wrote this song. Interestingly, though it's passionate, he didn't think of it as a love song, but as an apology to women. He said, "this is not a love song, but a song about the cowardice of men." Edith Piaf didn't think that was manly, but her men always beat her and used her. A man can be strong and "manly" and still apologize while not being a jerk. On a side note, the tune was inspired by the second - slow - movement of Franz Liszt's Hungarian Dance #6

Maravilhoso

Brel wrote this about his fiance throwing him out. He was so desperately in love with her. What we witnessed with him singing this heart ache was true emotion.

Very good reaction thank you this song is so beautiful sad and powerful its one of my favorite french song like jacques is one of my favorite singer with Aznavour who is the best french singer he writes our language wonderfully well I advise you to listen to it if you haven't already.

Wonderful, this beautiful song sung by the composer himself. Later Rod McKuen made an English translation, performed by many artists, but that lacks the emotions and depth of the original, I think.

Brel macht mich jedesmal fertig ...ich liebe ihn

It is translated in English and sung by a couple of American stars. But in the translation and performance they missed the drama, the spirit of the song. But this the real one, the one and only Brel.

One of the most outstanding, if not the most outstanding, live performance ever. Just another dimension…RIP Jacques. I was wondering for quite sometimes if you would react to that one in particular.

One of the greats. Un grand de chez grand de la chanson française.

Thanks a million , your so touching reaction brought tears in my eyes. Huge, awesome and iconic song. Love your so pertinent analysis. About English covers, my fav by far are those done by three icons: Dusty Springfield (with a verse in French) and Scott Walker and Ray Charles. Nina Simone, as for her, sang it totally in French. A bunch of others artists covered it: Neil Diamond, Franck Sinatra, Cindy Lauper, Marianne Faithfull, Brenda Lee, and so many others .Brel was a huge songwriter and performer. Several of his songs were covered. For example: Amsterdam by David Bowie and Scott Walker ..., "Seasons in the sun" by Terry Jack, Marc Almond, Nirvana, Dionne Warwick, ..."The dove" by Joan Baez, "If we only have love" Olivia Newton John, Shirley Bassey, Johnny Mathis, You should react to another very sad song of 1977 with outstanding orchestration titled "Orly" where he sings "Life does not make gifts" ( = nothing in life is free).

These French artist really know how to tell a story with passion through their voice, facial expressions and the tempo that is used to bring out the emotions. The Shawshank reference was perfect. On another note, please react to Dimash's Marigolds, Such a beautiful song and tribute to his mother who was in the audience. He learned the song overnight when performing in the Ukraine, It is not a sad song but one of appreciation and thanksgiving. I can only imagine how she felt having a son myself, when he took the time to please the crowd and honor her. A must watch with Angie.

Man, I am so glad you were touched by Brel, an infinite poet. As a belgian, 50 years old, I need to suggest Arno, another great belgian poet! He is also a monument. The music is different, the era is different but the passion is similar. If you're curious, I would suggest 'Quelqu'un a touché à ma femme' (someone has touched my woman), 'Dans les yeux de ma mère' (in the eyes of my mother) or for 'Oh la la la', one of his best hits (much more rocky though).

too bad you don't know french Brel's mother language was dutch and he put words together the way french would not do and the poetry in French was wonderful, He wrote music and wLyrics. He didn't sing he lived tthe song . he was not handsome but when he sung he radiated beauty I made a poor translation it is amzing in french Don't leave me You have to forget Everything can be forgotten Who is already running away, To forget time Of misunderstandings And the time wasted Figuring out how To forget those hours That sometimes killed With the "why" The heart of happiness Don't leave me Don't leave me Don't leave me Don't leave me I'll give you Pearls of rain From a land Where it doesn't rain I'll dig the earth til after my death To cover your body With gold and light I'll make an estate Where love will be king Where love will be law Where you will be queen Don't leave me Don't leave me Don't leave me Don't leave me Don't leave me I will invent for you some Crazy words That you will understand I'll tell you About those lovers Who twice saw Their hearts set on fire I'll tell you The story of this king Who died because he couldn't meet you Don't leave me Don't leave me Don't leave me Don't leave me We've often seen the fire come again of the old volcano we thought to be too old It is said there are scorched earth Giving more wheat Than a better April, And when evening comes For a sky to blaze Red and black Don't they marry Don't leave me Don't leave me Don't leave me Don't leave me Don't leave me I won't cry anymore I won't talk anymore I'll hide here Watching you Dancing and smiling And listening to you Singing and laughing Let me become The shadow of your shadow The shadow of your hand The shadow of your dog but, Don't leave me Don't leave me Don't leave me Don't leave me

Quand je vois dans quel état tu étais, heureusement que Angie n'était pas là, il aurait fallu une boite de kleneex :))) Ca fait longtemps que je ne l'avais pas écouté, merci pour ce choix.

Do you know Charles Aznavour, the song "Hier encore"... ----‐-------- Hier encore, j'avais vingt ans, je caressais le temps J'ai joué de la vie Comme on joue de l'amour et je vivais la nuit Sans compter sur mes jours qui fuyaient dans le temps J'ai fait tant de projets qui sont restés en l'air J'ai fondé tant d'espoirs qui se sont envolés Que je reste perdu, ne sachant où aller Les yeux cherchant le ciel, mais le cœur mis en terre Hier encore, j'avais vingt ans, je gaspillais le temps En croyant l'arrêter Et pour le retenir, même le devancer Je n'ai fait que courir et me suis essoufflé Ignorant le passé, conjuguant au futur Je précédais de moi toute conversation Et donnais mon avis que je voulais le bon Pour critiquer le monde avec désinvolture Hier encore, j'avais vingt ans mais j'ai perdu mon temps À faire des folies Qui me laissent au fond rien de vraiment précis Que quelques rides au front et la peur de l'ennui Car mes amours sont mortes avant que d'exister Mes amis sont partis et ne reviendront pas Par ma faute j'ai fait le vide autour de moi Et j'ai gâché ma vie et mes jeunes années Du meilleur et du pire en jetant le meilleur J'ai figé mes sourires et j'ai glacé mes pleurs Où sont-ils à présent? À présent Mes vingt ans
