#Pirate Jenny

[cantsayidont]

The problem with listening to Shilpa Ray and Nick Cave doing "Pirate Jenny" from THE THREEPENNY OPERA (with Warren Ellis) is that then you have Shilpa Ray and Nick Cave doing "Pirate Jenny" from THE THREEPENNY OPERA (with Warren Ellis) stuck in your head for the next week.

Idk if I asked this before but I really wanna know! Do you guys have your own version of Pirate Jenny or do you stick with canon? And if you do have your own version what is she like.

Weltschmerz and glitter

"Weltschmerz and glitter" a review of 'Vier Panado's en 'n Chardonnay', with Elzabe Zietsman and Tony Bentel and directed by Johann Slabbert.

PROUD to be me: Elzabe Zietsman in Vier Panado’s en ‘n Chardonnay, at the Atterbury Theatre in Pretoria. Photograph courtesy woordfees.co.za WHAT IS REAL entertainment? Forget the shamelessly syrupy and pretty, it’s something that gnaws at your inner fibre without your quite being able to escape its clutches, and yet, it leaves you with a grin on your face and hope in your sense of the future.…

All of 'em.

If you don't know Berthold Brecht, or Kurt Weill, or even Lotte Lenye, then here's a good place to start. I think they'd much appreciate it.

MAY YOU ALL EMERGE FREE AND CLEAR AND MAY YOU DO SOME GOOD WHERE YOU GO

[bloodraven55]

peak romance is when you go to save your girlfriend from an arranged marriage she doesn’t want but then it turns out she already escaped by hiding a gun in her wedding dress and the two of you have such a dramatic gay reunion that the kiss lasts through the entire ad break

I have strong feelings about this song, I'd never heard this version, and let me tell you, OP is correct

Nina Simone’s is objectively the best English cover of this song.

May you all emerge free and clear And may you do some good where you go High in the hands of the crosswinds Or in the arms of the undertow

Charles, Edwin, and Monty (Pirate AU: Chapter 3)

Charles still likes Monty, in some fashion. It isn’t the love that Monty has for Charles, he understands- love is for Edwin, not the boy Charles brought with him to this ship- but it is clear affection. Fondness. The sort of feeling that causes a smile to lift to Charles’ lips when he sees Monty, like it does now when Charles sits down on the bench next to Monty, plastering himself to Monty’s side by slinging an arm around his torso and leaning his head against Monty’s shoulder, just like he does playfully with Edwin sometimes during mealtimes, usually earning himself a fond roll of the eyes and a small smile from their Captain. “Aw,” Charles says, “You guys are having a meeting of the Survived-Esther-Finch club without me?”

And god, Monty will do anything to keep that smile on Charles’ face. To never again force him to do anything like what he had to do during that storm.

“More like permanently-scarred-by-Esther-Finch club,” Jenny says, nodding to Charles’ neck, where some of the scabs from the collar are fading into scars that will match the one on Monty’s cheek. “God, most fucked up club I've ever been a part of,” she adds as Monty offers up his bottle of ale to Charles.

-aletterinthenameofsanity, picture a man turning back to shore (I can only think of you)

In the clearing stands a boxer

And a fighter by his trade

And he carries the reminders

Of every glove that laid him down

And cut him 'til he cried out in his anger and his shame

I am leaving, I am leaving

But the fighter still remains

-Mumford & Sons, The Boxer

Great Pirates ~ Jenny from Thebes has fundamentally rewritten my brain chemistry and I’m not even kidding. The saxophone and guitar in dialogue? Subtitled “The future they both deserve”? ‘Carry what I need to carry / bury what I need to bury / dancing, whistling, singing / past the cemetary’? Great pirates, testing the waves? What a way to end an album. I am inconsolably and unbearably hopeful.
