Description:
A sequel to the Mack the Knife Chorus Line, featuring some versions of the original German song. A moritat was a medieval murder ballad sung by German minstrels. The German version of the song is darker than its English counterpart, describing Macheath as not only a murderer and robber, but a rapist and an arsonist as well. 1. Slut - 2006? 2. The Doors - 1968 (the only part of their version of Mack the Knife that had anything to do with the actual song was the part I included) 3. Lotte Lenya - 1928 (the wife of composer Kurt Weill, her name is included in the English lyrics as one of Macheath's victims) 4. Olmalandro - ? (it's in Portuguese) 5. Liberace - ? (a strange gay piano player) 6. Blake Lewis - 2007 (American Idol runner-up) 7. Kevin Spacey - 2004 (I know he's an actor, not a singer, but he sang the song for a movie he did about Bobby Darin) 8. Wayne Newton - ? 9. Frank Sinatra again 10. Westlife - 2004 Please enjoy and comment! German Lyrics: Und der Haifisch, der hat Zähne Und die trägt er im Gesicht Und Macheath, der hat ein Messer Doch das Messer sieht man nicht An 'nem schönen blauen Sonntag Liegt ein toter Mann am Strand Und ein Mensch geht um die Ecke, Den man Mackie Messer nennt Und Schmul Meier bleibt verschwunden Und so mancher reiche Mann Und sein Geld hat Mackie Messer Dem man nichts beweisen kann Jenny Towler ward gefunden Mit 'nem Messer in der Brust Und am Kai geht Mackie Messer, Der von allem nichts gewußt Und die minderjährige Witwe Deren Namen jeder weiß Wachte auf und war geschändet Mackie welches war dein Preis? Refrain Und die einen sind im Dunkeln Und die anderen sind im Licht Doch man sieht nur die im Lichte Die im Dunkeln sieht man nicht Doch man sieht nur die im Lichte Die im Dunkeln sieht man nicht Literal English Translation: And the shark, he has teeth And he wears them in his face And Macheath, he has a knife But the knife you don't see On a beautiful blue Sunday Lies a dead man on the Strand And a man goes around the corner Whom they call Mack the Knife And Schmul Meier stays missing As do some rich men And his money has Mack the Knife, On whom they can't pin anything. Jenny Towler was found With a knife in her chest And on the wharf walks Mack the Knife, Who knows nothing about all this. And the minor-aged widow, Whose name everyone knows, Woke up and was violated Mack, what was your price? And some are in the darkness And the others in the light But you only see those in the light Those in the darkness you don't see But you only see those in the light Those in the darkness you don't see
