Hello, Jacques Brel is a Belgian singer, but he sings in French (French is one of Belgium's official languages). He was very famous and a very important representative of the French-speaking world. He sold over 25 million records (not as many as Michael Jackson, but in Europe that's a lot). He was very fond of France, and named one of his daughters "France" like "France Gal". He died of lung cancer, probably because he smoked a lot. See you soon.
Brel was an unbelievable singer, but he was ever more of a master poet. Sometimes people forget the all the songs he wrote are poem! In French if you look the sentences you see the rhyme and meter. To me, he was truly a troubadour, a poet singing his poetry
That so cute man !!! He'd always prefer friendship than love.. Never met a man in my life !! Must be the one and only one to be so touching !!❤❤❤❤❤❤😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
"elle est chiante" 🤣Jacques Brel was an extraordinary storyteller , I love him, I have a box with vinyls disc, his entire work !! Also a book with all the texts of his songs !!
Merci de cette vidéo, très agréable et intéressante comme toutes celles que j'ai vues de vous (je n'ai pas encore tout vu, désolé). Il est parfois surprenant de voir votre compréhension des paroles ou de la situation, grâce à votre regard neuf, sur des chansons que nous connaissons depuis toujours (cette chanson est plus vieille que moi, et j'ai 61 ans) Thanks a lot. Peace out.
The building of that song "crescendo" is a speciality of Jacques Brel's songs... Le grand Jacques... Un ange descendu du ciel... Car malgré ses quelques défauts, sa lumière faisait de l'ombre à Saint Pierre... ❤❤❤❤😢😢😢😢❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Cette chanson peut bien sûr évoquer l'amour romantique mais également l'Amour qu'on porte en soi pour affronter la vie. Elle a été chantée par Camélia Jordana, Yaël Naïm et Nolwenn Leroy lors de l'hommage aux victimes des attentats du 13 novembre 2015: cette dimension apparaît clairement dans cette interprétation je trouve.
Quand on a que l'amour is a song written, composed and performed by Jacques Brel in 1956. Brel's first big success. the song has been taken up by a number of French and French-speaking performers, like Céine Dion, .....,In 2012, Johnny Hallyday performed it at the end of his new singing tour.
Thanks. 🫶 I have a few cd's by him. All beautiful ..I especially love "il neige sur Liege", "La chanson des vieux amants" , " voir un ami pleurer" and " ne me quitte pas" . When he sang you almost got hypnotised. He died too young, 😢
Bonjour from Paris worldwide friends. Jacques Brel had a ten-year career, he stopped in 1966. Before entering the stage he vomited because the stage fright was strong for him, he sweated a lot. But let's not forget the actor. Since 1978, the year of his death, he has left a void. Jacques Brel was Belgian of Flemish family and French speaking.
Je dois dire que tes choix avec Brel sont parfais. Je pense que la plus grande persormance de Jacques Brel au nivau rythme c'est la valse aux milles temps.. I have to say that your choices with Brel are sometimes. I think that Jacques Brel's greatest performance in terms of rhythm is the waltz of a thousand times..
the way he speaks about love is, I think, the reason why foreigners see french people as romantic people. As you said: in french language, we know how to speak about love. A lot of french speaking autors, singers, artists, etc... do know how to speak about love. And for your last question: yes he was very famous. Actually every belgian and french people knows at least "ne me quitte pas" and "le port d'Amsterdam" even if he's dead a long time ago
I may remember that you once reacted to "Formidable" by Stromae (which is the reverse syllabes of Maestro). His song is a kind of hommage to Jacques Brel.
This song is not so much about love between two people specifically, but about the concept entire, like using it to prevent or deal with war (parler aux canons, convaincre un tambour (convince a war drum to fall silent)) or poverty or all the maladies of the world.
its a bit complex to translate because he speaks about oamantic love (it's obvisouly the case in the beggining) or chiristian love (to poor people, to speak to canons)

Vous êtes hilarant mais je suis d'accord avec vous l'amour n'a pas à être aliénant.

Merci for this reaction, I really recomand " Orly" by Brel. It's a very strong emotional song for me by this singer.

yes, that's wright (Ithink too I mean....) the words the words the words ! He opens the windows

l'amour décrit dans la chanson n'est pas que l'amour pour une autre personne mais a la fin pour tous les humains....

its a bit complex to translate because he speaks about oamantic love (it's obvisouly the case in the beggining) or chiristian love (to poor people, to speak to canons)
Vous êtes hilarant mais je suis d'accord avec vous l'amour n'a pas à être aliénant.
"Quand on N'a que l'Amour" is more correct, in good French!
Could you react to my favourite j b song ,la chanson des vieux amants many thanks.

Belgium (Like Stromae), not French
Hé was in couple with Edith Piaf herself...but la vie en rose was not for them...
No, he was never in a relationship with Piaf, they were not the same generation, his “muse” and his mistress at the time was Catherine Sauvage.
It was Yves Montand who had a short relation with Edith Piaf.
@@anjoriesmits9849 oops my bad !i confunded the two lol
Belgium please not french
