With thanks to @loddon. One of my favourite songs now And my other favourite, another German singer, is this end of world song by Klaus Nomi.

Not a tune but a film One flu over the cuckoo's nest. Perhaps it's a bit tricky for the more simple-minded, but there's a thread for films, a thread for books and a thread for toons. Clowns are exempt from rules. πΊπ€‘

A nice cheesy little video in support of Rog's chat encouragement.

...and one shamelessly filched from the other side, just because it is so clever... one line of it is particulalry pertinent to here!
...edit to add that if you dont have time or bandwidth to listen to it all the lyrics are in the video information. ...everybody knows the tune.

Terry Jacks I can't listen to. It's too much. I've avoided it for nigh on 50 years and it's the only song ever made that I avoid because of this. Weird. La-la-la I can't hear it!

"The song is a translation from one by the morbid Belgian writer, Jaques Brel. ... The song which "seasons in the sun was translated from was called "Le moribond" which was about a dying man's farewell. The translation was done by the singer songwriter Rod McKeuen, who, like Bowie was a big fan of Brel's work."
