Belle (track 12) from the album In Between Dreams
Finding someone to learn the accordian may be the toughest part...
Listen to the song to pick up the rhythm.

| I think the first line is portugese, which means hey pretty. I like the song because for those of you who haven't met a girl or guy outside of the united states, its hard to communicate and that happens. But its fun. | |

| To me this song is not about communicating verbally at all. Since he doesn't speak all these foreign languages, he wants to speak some other "way". As in they have to communicate physically. That is so sexy. | |

| If you really like this song, listen to the great bossa nova singer, Joao Gilberto - His best cd is just him and his guitar (Joćo Voz E Violćo) It sounds to me like Jack was listening to this cd quite a bit when he wrote this song... | |

| this is my take on it .. Jack sings hey how are you in the 4 romance languages Italian, Spanish, Portugese and French and then he ends in english saying you'll have to speak to me another way ... maybe what he's trying to say is that he's this ordinary guy and he doesnt know how to do romance, for me the song's simple and plain and i think thats what jacks saying about himself and his love, no grand gestures just the truth. | |

| I agree with Wrapid- it seems a LOT like Michelle, though I have to confess I like Michelle better, as I dont think this is the best of jack's songs. | |

| i'd have to agree with the comment by Wilsong on 04-03-2005 @ 10:22:08 PM , Joćo Gilberto and his album "Joćo Voz E Violćo" have been great to me. | |

| He actually sings in several different languages. The first two lines are Italian, meaning "Hey beautiful/ Beautiful wuts up"...then in Spanish "Beautiful, Beautiful wuts up"...then in French "I don't understand French"...then English I recently saw Jack in San Francisco, and at the show he translated it as "Hey beautiful, hey beautiful, hey beautiful, I don't know french." | |
