@Makreelvis You're right to criticise the ending. It is inadequate, but it's Brel's ending. That doesn't mean Brel was right. The versions by Rachel Demby, Nana Mouskouri and Judy Collins are far better in the regard.

Awesome. :0

Though Scott sings this with such passion, the real credit should go to Jacques Brel. Most of the songs Scott recorded were English version of his recordings, Scott himself truly admired Jacques Brel.

This is such a beautiful classic!! it deserves more credit!

@Makreelvis I know what you mean, I feel the same way. Thanks for your comment. :)

I love this song, but I get a little annoyed by the ending. You want it to go on, have more pressure before it ends.

If you like this one, then I'm sure you'll like his other Jacques Brel covers as well (you'll find them all on YT). And I would recommend each and every one of his self-titled albums. :) (btw, the name of the movie is "Flashbacks of a Fool").

This was playing during the credits of some movie with the current James Bond in it. I finally tracked it down. This guy is amazing. Can anyone recommend more music by him ?

It does have a magical quality, doesn't it? Thanks, Sandi! :)

I agree with your analogy of it being part walz part lullaby. makes for such a beautiful arrangement. His voice make the song "magic" very nice indeed
