Ah the great Jacques Brel. I haven't listened to him in ages. I used to have vinyl discs but I should look for CDs. No doubt they have released some.

Very Frenchy! I couldnt' stop watching his gargantuan Adam's Apple when he sang.

There's a French Pop station and a French classics station on my XM Satellite radio. I bet they play Jacques Brel on it.

I bet they do play Brel (even though he's Belgian!)
