Hi,
 
It's a modern world and a lot of things are released in more than one language ... heck, you can get David Bowie's Heroes song on at least 4 different languages!
 
Weird that we are thinking that is strange ... unless we're not aware that there are other countries that speak different languages out there?
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

Funny, I thought for a brief time that it was "she's so pop-u-lar!"

As it turns out it's "Jeux sans frontières"!  That's just French for "games without frontiers".


Hence the line 'it's a knockout' - in the 1970s/1980s there was a TV show in the UK called 'It's A Knockout' where teams from various towns would compete in ludicrous games - it became so popular the format extended to include other European countries too - the name of the show? Jeux Sans Frontieres

And this is how ridiculous it all was


Great information, THANK YOU.

I enjoyed that video (only had time for a minute, but will watch all later).  Holy smokes is that ridiculous.  "The Belgian dummy tried to put the GB dummy through the hole..." LOL

OK, maybe not so prog but....

 
"I want to see the Bright Lights Tonight" by Richard & Linda Thompson
 
I always thought the chorus went:
 
"Meet me at the station don't be late
I need to spend some money and it just won't wait.
Take me to the docks and hold me tight
I want to see the bright lights tonight."
 
Couldn't quite work out what the big deal was about the docks...
 
Then I thought it was maybe
 
"take me to the dogs"
 
Finally I found out it was "take me to the dance and hold me tight."
 
Made a lot more sense, then.
