Janpol1953 hasn't dropped in since 2019. What's the deal? Does this site only have room for one multi-instrumentalist French guy (https://songcrafters.org/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=7637)?
This is the only song posted the week of 5 August, 2018 – a brave attempt to sing a classic song in a language not his own. And no comments until this one.
I'm listening to Janpol1953's jukebox (https://songcrafters.org/forum/index.php?action=Playall;u=7906) right now and it's tellement français! I wish I'd discovered this Songcrafter before, but that's what happens when you blackout for months at a time.

Thank you Ted for this wonderful enterprise of resurgence of the SC archives
And so thanks in particular for Jean Paul, who is a friend and with whom we have done some great covers
including for example this one which I like a lot

and in fact I don't know exactly why he doesn't come on SC anymore, I'll ask him
