There is a radio station here in France called "France Musique." It is roughly the equivalent of Radio 3 in that it plays mainly classical music and jazz. On 22nd June there was a half-hour programme in the early morning called "Ne Me Brexit Pas!" A skit on Jacques Brel's famous song "Ne Me Quitte Pas." Several new songs on the subject of a Brexit were broadcast.

For those who don't know the original Jacques Brel song here's a link: Jacques Brel Ne me quitte pas Paroles Lyrics YouTube - YouTube

Rod McKuen took the basic melody and substituted English Lyrics. The song was then called "If You Go Away." This song has been covered by many singers, perhaps the most famous is Neil Diamond's 1971 version.
