My opinion is that he is in fact belgian
>>73328061
I feel strongly about his belgianness

I was mostly talking of the language but that's correct.
Ashamed to say I only know his songs through Scott Walker's covers.
I also used to think he helped Bob Dylan write Desire, but that was just some other guy called Jacques and I'm retarded
>>73328061
He's pretty good. Been meaning to get into him, actually. That Scott Walker likes him as much as he does signifies that he's probaby well worth listening to more of.

"Oh yeah, I'm really into chanson, y'know, Brel, Hardy, the list goes on..."
"What? No, I don't speak French."

Outside of the English world, most people are fine listening to music where they don't understand the lyrics.

Hardy is not chanson.
>>73328061
One, he is Belgian.
Two, he's the greatest singer/songwriter of all.

As much as I enjoy chanson, Brel is really the best one. But there's a lot of artists with impressive works as well.
