According to the French speaking community of Belgium, the Greatest Belgian of all time is Jacques Brel. Actually, he was of Flemish origin, singing in French, living in Brussels.
I wonder whether Brel is really better known abroad than the Flemish Greatest Belgian. Since he performed in France and in most of the French speaking world, I guess the answer will be yes. By the way, Father Damian was third.

I do know Jacques Brel, and he certainle is far more known here in Spain (even though among young people Brel also isn't particularly well-known) than Father Damian, let alone in France.
I guess I'll have to find out who father Damian was...
Bye.
