Le Moribond (3:05)

Cover of Ne Me Quitte Pas

From Ne Me Quitte Pas and 62 other releases

This is the original French language version of the chart topping song ‘Seasons In The Sun’ made famous by Terry Jacks in 1974 and again by Westlife in 1999. The final verse of the French version seems to suggest the singer’s wife has been unfaithful to him, and that the impending death may be suicide, perhaps coupled with murder of the adulterers, but this has been changed in the English versions.

    To be fair, Seasons in the Sun is a fucking awful neutering translation of this. All of Brel's edge is completely lost.

    'Dear Pee-Why, Seasons in the Sun has NOTHING to do with the great J.B.'s Le Moribnd - NOTHING! ' Are you a retard ?

    Same as WillFry. I discovered this in anticipation of The Flying Club Cup, but fell in love with this song. A masterpiece.

    Je l'adore! I heard the Beirut cover first, and loved it (I'm a ridiculously huge Beirut fan), but that doesn't even come close to the original. Brilliant!
