Mack the Knife
via myahkeitaro
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)
