MOS probs
nor mine - on music projects - it just appears to have got lost from any project with lots of related articles see - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translations_of_Fr%C3%A8re_Jacques(not my bolding gmail gone mad). The French Wikipedia entry classes as a pure nursery rhyme - with no need to explain its existence. Culturally it reappears for a new generation - I was watching cartoon network with a nephew (who is 15, but 5 at the time) and he asked what it meant.
jon thanks
