From Nirvana's Cover of Terry Jack's

Seasons In The Sun

"I don't know all the words...."

I know this isn't the rarest track around, but it is one I really enjoy and I hope you all like it.

If you dive as deep as you can into Nirvana you will come across the strange and unexpected. Browsing the rarities of Nirvana is a rewarding experience for somebody who is looking for music with unpolished edges. Nirvana is one of the best bands for irregular music with an enormous catalog of demos and alternative versions of songs that I personally think are far better than some of their studio recordings. I will probably review every single one.

"Seasons In The Sun" is a classic hit song from the 70s by artist Terry Jacks and probably pioneered some of the later sounds of the 2010 indie scene. I say probably, there is no way for me to verify - no artist has declared this as a point of their inspiration. However, Nirvana gave us a very fun performance of the song. Listening to this track is insightful and also a close look, even, I would argue an intimate look of the space a band creates on their first take. This track really makes me want to grab two others and record something out of the air. The lore surrounding this performance according to YouTube comments is that they all switched instruments and played the song for fun. There are a couple uploads of this song on YouTube and one of the uploads shows a video of Kurt on drums. If it is true that this only exists cause they were goofing, I am glad one of them hit record on the tape deck. Audibly the song is fun, I wouldn't expect a polished performance - you get alot out of it by listening to Kurt sing a song that isn't his and the band creating a kind of indie soundscape. Imagine if Nirvana made 2010s indie - I suppose.

I have included the original song because it's very interesting to hear the original and then go right to Nirvana's performance. You can decide which version you prefer and ask yourself what matters in a song. Does it need to be sonically perfect? I think putting these side by side can show you that tracks with unpolished edges are just more fun to listen to at times.

Lyrics:

Goodbye to you, my trusted friend

But we've known each other since we were nine or ten

Together, we've climbed hills and trees

Learned of love and ABC's

Skinned our hearts and skinned our knees

Goodbye, my friend, it's hard to die

When all the birds are singing in the sky

Now that spring is in the air

Pretty girls are everywhere

Think of me and I'll be there

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun

But the hills that we climbed were just seasons out of time

Goodbye, papa, please pray for me

I was the black sheep of the family

You tried to teach me right from wrong

Too much wine and too much song

Wonder how I got along

Goodbye, papa, it's hard to die

When all the birds are singing in the sky

Now that the spring is in the air

Little children everywhere

When you see them, I'll be there

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun

But the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun

But the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Goodbye, Michelle, my little one

You gave me love and helped me find the sun

And every time that I was down

You would always come around

And get my feet back on the ground

Goodbye, Michelle, it's hard to die

When all the birds are singing in the sky

Now that the spring is in the air

With the flowers everywhere

I wish that we could both be there

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun

But the hills that we climbed were just seasons out of time

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun

But the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun

But the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone

Songwriter:

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun

But the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun

But the wine...

Jacques Romain G. Brel / Rod Mckuen

A Beautiful Man

I close my eyes and remember The beauty of your Adonis-like features, The astonishing symmetry of your face, The sensuous smoothness of your skin... I paint in my imagination Those deep, all-consuming eyes, Hair like the blackest night And, mouth created for dark passion. Then, I look at you and rediscover The sweet hesitation in your smile, That tender yearning in your gaze, The reason you're a god amongst men...

Nicholas Clay, who has died of cancer aged 53, was a superb Lancelot in John Boorman’s film Excalibur (1981), a prominent player during Sir Laurence Olivier’s golden Old Vic period in the 1970s, a television star, and an actor who loved teaching - and was good at it. “He was quite the most beautiful man I had ever seen, gallingly handsome and awesomely athletic”. (author of the guardian, 2000)
