Hoppipolla ~ Sigur Ros

("Jumping into Puddles")

Brosandi

Hendumst í hringi

Höldumst í hendur

Allur heimurinn óskýr

Nema þú stendur

Rennblautur

Allur rennvotur

Engin gúmmístígvél

Hlaupandi inn í okkur

Vill springa út úr skel

Vindurinn

Og útilykt af hárinu þínu

Eg lamdi eins fast og ég get

Með nefinu mínu

Hoppípolla

I engum stígvélum

Allur rennvotur (rennblautur)

I engum stígvélum

Og ég fæ blóðnasir

En ég stend alltaf upp

Og ég fæ blóðnasir

Og ég stend alltaf upp

english translation

Smiling

Spinning 'round and 'round

Holding hands

The whole world a blur

But you are standing

Soaked

Completely drenched

No rubber boots

Running in us

Want to erupt from a shell

The Wind

An outdoor smell of your hair

I breathe as hard as I can

With my nose

Jumping into puddles

With no boots on

completely drenched(Soaked)

With no boots on

And I get nosebleed

But I always get up

And I get nosebleed

But I always get up

Whoaaaa

I just went through this thread because ^ that post made me wonder if i had posted this song already. I was so sure I must've - but I hadn't!! :o

Didi - Khaled

Surely I've already mentioned how much I like this one and how big it was in India when it was released :headphones:

Not mentioned so far, if I checked correctly:

Adriano Celentano's nonsense lyrics, sometimes validated as the first rap ever:

Prisencolinensinainciusol

since we have a member who's slowly becoming a Grönemeyer fan ( ;) ), I thought I'd post his first hit:

Männer

Männer

Männer nehmen in den Arm

Männer geben Geborgenheit

Männer weinen heimlich

Männer brauchen viel Zärtlichkeit

Oh Männer sind so verletzlich

Männer sind auf dieser Welt einfach unersetzlich

Männer kaufen Frauen

Männer stehn ständig unter Strom

Männer baggern wie Blöde

Männer lügen am Telefon

Oh Männer sind allzeit bereit

Männer bestechen durch ihr Geld und ihre Lässigkeit

Männer haben's schwer, nehmen's leicht

außen hart und innen ganz weich

werden als Kind schon auf Mann geeicht

Wann ist ein Mann ein Mann?

Wann ist ein Mann ein Mann?

Wann ist ein Mann ein Mann?

Männer haben Muskeln

Männer sind furchtbar stark

Männer können alles

Männer kriegen 'n Herzinfarkt

Oh Männer sind einsame Streiter

müssen durch jede Wand, müssen immer weiter

Männer ...

Männer führen Kriege

Männer sind schon als Baby blau

Männer rauchen Pfeife

Männer sind furchtbar schlau

Männer bauen Raketen

Männer machen alles ganz ganz genau

Wann ist ein Mann ein Mann?

Wann ist ein Mann ein Mann?

Männer kriegen keine Kinder

Männer kriegen dünnes Haar

Männer sind auch Menschen

Männer sind etwas sonderbar

Oh Männer sind so verletzlich

Männer sind auf dieser Welt einfach unersetzlich

Männer...

----------------------------------

Men

Men take you in their arms

Men provide security

Men cry in secret

Men need a lot of tenderness

Oh men are so vulnerable

Men simply can't be replaced in this world

Men buy women

Men are always high

Men toil like idiots

Men lie on the phone

Oh men are always ready

Men corrupt with their money and their carelessness

Men have it rough, take it easy

Outside hard, inside quite soft

Programmed already from childhood to be a man

When is a man a man?

When is a man...

Men have muscles

Men are terribly strong

Men can do everything

Men have heart attacks

Oh men are lonely champions

Have to go through walls, always have to go on

Men...

Men wage wars

Men are already blue* when they're babies

Men smoke pipes

Men are terribly smart

Men build rockets

Men do things very very precisely

When is a man a man?

When is...

Men don't have babies

Men get thinning hair

Men are people (humans), too

Men are something special

Oh men are so vulnerable

Men simply can't be replaced in this world

Men...

* "to be blue" in German means the same as "to be pissed" in British English = "to be drunk" ;)
