Have you ever compared the literal translation of 99 Luftballons to the English 99 Red Balloons? It turns it from a statement about war and politics into a crass pop song

Here's a music/driving confession for you all
Sometimes I like to wind all the windows down, wind up "Ride of the Valkyries" by Wagnor reeeeeeeeaally loud and do laps of the main street.
Bit different to the boyz in their commonwhores with the doof doof

Muppet, we really need to see your birth certificate. There's no way you are 19. You like Python, classical music and Land Rovers. You'll be telling us next that you even wear baseball caps the right way round and that you keep your underwear hidden

ooooooohhh! ive done that before.

I have a varied range of tunes etc I like, some modern, some older and even classical or opera for some!!

I cant decide what I believe are the top 15 so instead these are the top 15 out of what I have recorded on the CD thats in Bear at the moment.

I was heartbroken I couldnt add the Blues Brothers or the aussie verion of "Country Boy" (kernigan etc) but theyve been squeezed out..

Nope. Only ever heard the German version.
Helps when you speak a little German.

I still like some modern stuff
Hilltop hoods are good.
But yes, I like to keep my pants up. My name isn't Calvin Klein, I'm not an underwear model

P.S Sleepy, out of all the songs from the Last Waltz, you pick Van Morrison?
