Frankie Sparo lyrics

This archive began in May 2004 as a collection of my late-night, caffeine-fueled translations of Frankie Sparo's lyrics, some of the most poetic and affecting I've known. Collaborators from around the world joined me in filling the holes left by my imperfect ears, providing corrections, additions, and—in the case of Caméra—translations. Now, though Mr. Sparo and his bandmates have moved onto new projects, this archive remains incomplete. If you have any edits or suggestions, please contact me at simon@inescapable.org.
