Jacques Brel (8 April 1929 – 9 October 1978) was a Belgian singer and actor who composed and performed theatrical songs.
Jacques Brel Crosses the Sea
In 1965 he appeared at the prestigious Carnegie Hall in New York City. His performance was received with high public and critical acclaim. -- Wikipedia
With passion and ardent emotion,
He concocted a musical potion
Which inspired a cultish devotion.
Though considered a dubious notion,
He even created commotion
On the Anglophone side of the ocean!
