Al from London on 2001-11-11 20:05 [#00050618]



I've been reading some foreign language reviews of the new
album via the Google translator and I thought you lot might
be interested/amused.

rev=/search%3Fq%3Dgwarek%2Baphex%26hl%3Den

Highlights:

Orban Eq Trx 4 - "A martial walk, full with low, that one
would swear carried out by elephants of Walt Disney, stuffed
a little."

Petiatil Cx Htdui - "New label with the piano, like Elton
John not fatty, not shitting, not queer, but quite as
insane."

Are you WEIRD Al, or just some generic Al of the street?


 

balthus from europe on 2001-11-11 20:16 [#00050632]



well, i guess you are not Al from San Francisco.

but truly nice descriptions of our most loved musical
tracks. but anyway, i certainly despise sir elton.


 

Al from London on 2001-11-11 20:25 [#00050636]



I'm not from San Francisco, just an Al from London. And I
hope I'm not generic!

I read somewhere, maybe here, that the titles to Druqs were
in some old Celtic language. There are elements of Welsh and
olde Cornish is of that sort of ilk. Has anyone got any
translations?

And, yes, I can translate track 8...

According to the N.M.E. interview, the titles are in a
special language Richard devised himself which is a mixture
of Welsh and old Cornish and stuff he's made up.
The interview had a couple of examples of translations but i
can't find it right now, let you know later...
