Mack the Knife


Bobby Darin had a massive hit with this song in 1959, but although his take is finger-snappingly good in its way, I prefer more straightforward versions.


I won't go into the history of the song and its addition to Three Penny Opera, as there are many online resources to sort through, including this article from "The Juilliard Journal." Here's a video I just recorded, using Mark Blitzstein's English lyric, with an added verse translated from the original German words used in the TPO film.
