[edit] for sure youdon't know NOTHING about punk!

The Damned never recorded "Jet Boy". But it was Captain Sensible and The Softies in July 1978. See MySpace.com!!! 81.244.55.174

Is that right? I've seen them perform it, at least... -- 82.39.226.19 18:40, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
This anonymous user is incorrect. I'm listening to the Damned version right now. Aroundthewayboy 18:14, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Backing track

This bit isn't clear. Did Bertrand record his vocals onto the backing track that had already been recorded for Motello's version, or was it re-recorded using the same musicians? Thomjakobsen 16:10, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

I've heard it both ways, but haven't found a reliable source. "Ça Plane Pour Moi" is played a half-step up, but everything in it is a half-step up, including the drums. So I wouldn't rule out the possibility that it's the same recording-- the pitch could've been adjusted after the fact. Fullobeans (talk) 04:23, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
