Jeanette Dimech (October 10, 1951 - ), who performs under the name Jeanette, is an English-born, American-raised singer who has resided in Spain since the age of 12.
Because of her grandparents' import-export business, she lived with her parents first in London, where she was born; and later in Chicago and Los Angeles, where she grew up. After her parents' separation at age 12, she moved to Barcelona, where her mother was from.
During the 1960s she learnt to play guitar and began to write her own songs. She styled her music after American folk music, and her idols included Bob Dylan, Donovan, and The Byrds. Later she joined the student band Pic-Nic as a singer, who in 1969 had a measure of success with a folk version of the Spanish children's song CΓ‘llate niΓ±a. Other notable songs of theirs included Amanecer and No digas nada.
After the band split up at the end of the 1960s, she moved to Vienna with her husband, the Hungarian musician Laszlo Kristof. At the start of the 1970s, she began her solo career with her hit first single,Soy rebelde (I am a rebel). It first enjoyed success in Spanish-speaking countries, and later broadened its influence with French and English versions. This song and others penned by Manuel Alejandro, such as El muchacho de los ojos tristes and Estoy triste established her as an artist in Spain.
Her greatest success Porque te vas (Because you are leaving) was actually written by JosΓ© Luis Perales and remained relatively unknown at the start of 1974. Only when the song was used in Carlos Saura's 1977 film "Cria Cuervos" (Raise Crows), and the film went on be honoured at the Cannes film festival (Jury grand prize) and the Berlin Film Festival (jury special prize), did the song become internationally known and a hit. In Austria it reached number 13, in Switzerland number 4, and in Germany it even reached number 1.
Although after Porque te vas Jeanette never achieved similar international success, she continued singing relatively successfully in Spain (and to a lesser degree France) well into the 1990s.
Another artist using the name Jeanette is a South African singer. Her 2003 album βJyβs my allesβ features yodeling in Afrikaans and English.

O Come All Ye Faithful
Jeanette Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The above lyrics are from Jeanette's rendition of the Christmas carol "O Come All Ye Faithful". The song begins with an invitation to all the faithful to come to Bethlehem and behold the King of Angels, Jesus Christ. The next verse calls on the choirs of angels to sing in exaltation along with the citizens of heaven above, giving all glory to God. The chorus repeats the call to adore Jesus Christ.
The third verse greets Jesus on his birth and expresses gratitude and glory to him. The final verse affirms that the Word of the Father has appeared in flesh, and again calls for adoration of Christ the Lord. The lyrics thus convey the message of the joy and triumph of the faithful in welcoming the birth of Jesus Christ, the king of all angels.
