Nirvana covered the song during their 1993.01.19-21 session in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.


The song was originally titled "Le Moribund" by Jacques Brel. It became a hit in Canada, the United States and the United Kingdom after Terry Jacks translated and retitled it as "Seasons In The Sun." The single was released in 1973 and an album by the same name came out in January 1974. (Amazon does not list the album, but Jacks' version of the song can be found on several compilations.)
