majestic Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 (edited) Hey @Azdeus, you know, I thought Dr. Bombay was hilarious even if 'slightly' racist. Smile was just offensive, but since I've browsed through the comments and that seems to have been a huge hit in one of the Dance Dance Revolution games who I am to be offended when those that it should offend be are not? Basshunter is just an embarassment. However, I have just discovered something that is so far beyond everything that I can only compare it with a train wreck. I know I should not, but I just cannot stop watching. They also have a 'live' performance of this travesty on their channel, which is even worse, in spite of being 100% playback. How, you ask? Well, you could put actual women on stage and give them highly uncanny, super creepy anime costumes with masks that look like they were left over from a Japanese remake of Saw. I WANT TO PLAY A GAME. I am going to quote Rainbow's Stargazer here: Quote Time is standing still He gave back my will My eyes are bleeding And my heart is leaving here Edited January 2, 2023 by majestic 1 No mind to think.

majestic Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 Reading the comments is painful. Swedish weebs are weak! Either that, or the joke is too good. It's a bunch of random Japanese strung together to sound like the original. Being able to speak Swedish apparently makes it so that the Japanese misheard lyrics can be misheard back to Swedish with an accent. What a glorious find this turned out to be. 1 No mind to think.

As a Swede I can confirm that it does sound like Swedish with an exaggerated Japanese accent, the joke is too good. The intro part sounds a bit weird, but after that it really does sound like Swedish, the refrain is especially good compared to the rest 1 Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L.

Gorth Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 This may be lost on most of my fellow forumites, but it was a regular "guest" on the radio in my childhood home... (I gave up finding a HQ recording of the song) Edit: The tune is from an old Russian song, but with (obviously) different lyrics “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

Funny thing is, reaching that high A seems to be a lot easier for him than it is for Gillan, but in terms of emotion, delivery and all that, he definitely is out of his league. He performs the song well, as a technical exercise, but he's got no depth. The world is full of better singers than Leonard Cohen, but you just try and sing one of his songs better than he does...
