Jojo

For the songwriters section of the September Song Challenge, one by Jacques Brel.

If I had to pick a king (or queen) among songwriters, it would be him... I have not heard anyone to touch the sheer depth of emotion he puts into his writing and delivery. And of course, there's that voice :0)
But above all, it's the songs.

This is one he wrote for a friend he lost: Jojo. I know how he feels.

"Six pieds sous terre, Jojo, tu chantes encore;
Six pieds sous terre, tu n'es pas mort.
(...)
Six pieds sous terre, Jojo, tu n'es pas mort;
Six pieds sous terre, Jojo, je t'aime encore."
