I reckon that you will probably go for Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick, and I wouldn't be disappointed to find that you did so, but as an alternative, why not a bit of eighties pap with "Der Kommissar" by After The Fire"?

Achtung! Deutsch only then....back on wi't thinkin' cap Herr Spike....

Oooooh can we have Rock The Casbah by The Clash please ...... altho Casbah may not strictly be "en Deutsch" ....



Lovin' the shoe. Show's not bad either!



Deevs

Morning Simon,



Please could you play Da Da Da by Trio. Or how about a bit of Kraftwerk?



Mcw x

Bahn Bahn Bahn Auto Auto Bahn .....

Oh no, not Rock Me Amadeus?....

Another warm Monday morning greetings to - Kev TrickyTree Williams, Ticketyboo, BabyDriver, Ken Jude, music_geek, Rev David Marshall, Brenda, poshsoullady, Deebee9, Tortie-cat, NicRolastic, PurpleDragon, SylviaB88, Paul of Sheffield, Alison from Eastleigh, madchickenwoman, jeff, MobileToothFairy, misstoedipper, Jason Issacs... and somebody who rarely makes a post, Spike!



I'll second "Hit me with your Rhythm stick"





Love the show, the host, the staff, the other bloggers, the tweeters, the browsers, the callers, the emailers, the ones that don't even know the show exists (shame on you) and the listeners.



KERNOW BYS VYKEN!!!

Daz - I was paying homage to your beautiful language of course, and suggested a phrase that NicRolastic might whisper in Deev's ear tonight (in Cornish) and it got swiped! Modders will need to be on their toes today, as Deev's suggested. Have fun Das Blogpoppetmeisters

Spike



I am invisible to our Daz!



Deevs



x

Oh German... can only think of 99 Red Balloons but I agree that it may have to be in the original version to qualify. So as an alternative I will agree with AutoBahn from the invisible one aka Deevs.



'usual pleasantries'

Who said that?



Oh, it was me!

Happy Monday all, and to especially to Darren with thanks for the mention. Now today's terms and conditions...tricky indeed. I do have a version in German of Dusty Springfield's I Only Want to be with you, may be the least likely suggestion to be played though. Off to have a think, may be a while...

#9 Daz can't see you because he has problems with his corneaish accent....*dodges flying objects*

Wooden Heart by Elvis is the first thought...

I'm going to struggle with this one I think, but the German "Here Comes the Flood" is a thing of beauty, as much as anything sung in German can be a thing of beauty.



I can report news on one of last week's items. The "indoor-scarf-wearing statement" trend seems to have been a passing fad. Mr Tyminski's was nowhere to be seen at the Festival Hall on Saturday night.



And Jimi Hendrix was a fantastic bluegrass songwriter :-)

Simon,



Blog rules state that you can't use a foreigh language on here, so this is going to be a bit tricky matey...

CDF - My boss is Cornish but you are missing out my OH in your listage...on your own head be it!



Nic

(For the third time today) A warm Monday morning greetings to - CherylTheDiva, Kev TrickyTree Williams, Ticketyboo, BabyDriver, Ken Jude, music_geek, Rev David Marshall, Brenda, poshsoullady, Deebee9, Tortie-cat, NicRolastic, PurpleDragon, SylviaB88, Paul of Sheffield, Alison from Eastleigh, madchickenwoman, jeff, MobileToothFairy, misstoedipper, Jason Issacs... and somebody who rarely makes a post, Spike!

KERNOW BYS VYKEN!!!

Morning all!



I'm with mtd - 99 Luftballons.....



Or Da Da Da please!!

This comment was removed because the moderators found it broke the house rules. Explain.

Just had a ear worm moment....



"I'm In Love With A German Filmstar" by The Passions, anyone?



Did anyone else notice that Simon's mum must have been very young when she had Simon?

Morning Darren from Cornwall



;-)



Deevs



x

CDF - Ok you are forgiven and is Cornish a foreigh language as defined by blog rules I wonder?



Nic

Cheryl - Give me your dog? Are you sure?!

Simon - Please no Beatles - CLP plays enough of them.



Nic

#22 Can't see any other reason they modded me! Congrats on your new housekeeper btw ;) ;)

#19 Now this is getting silly - someone phone the Beeb now!

#22 We're all foreigners to the Cornish aren't we? So by extension Cornish ought to be foreign to us.

Dry(drei?)County by Bon Jovi??....

Spike - I did suggest in earlier post that this is, perhaps on reflection, an ill conceived subject for a blog which doiesn't allow foreign languages...and re #24, you are living dangerously my friend! lol.



Nic

Morning all,

I reckon we have Bruce Almighty to blame for this one...coz he played "Alein alein" by Polarkreis 18( sp...) at about the time of this posting.

Thanks Ken...

Die deutsche Sprache ist ein Problem heute. Ich denke, dass wir eine Übersetzung für alles zur Verfügung stellen müssen.



Thanks to babelfsh



The german language is a problem today. I think that we will need to provide a translation for everything.



mtd ffb xxx (bring on the modders....)

#30 you won't have to wait long deary....

Morning Ticketyboo - Excellent suggestion for the song (Unless it gets modded of course)



Simon, If you are thinking of doing a foreign language theme this week, think again, cos you won't have too many posts to read, as they will either have been modded or not posted for fear of being modded!



Nic

#32 It's a ruse to favour the Twits!!! ParanoidSpike

Spike - It's an ambush!

Nic - you round up the waggons in a circle and I'll run for help!

Got it! - you're OK so long as you provide a translation at the same time. That's where you went wrong with your cornish Spike poppet.



'usual pleasantries'



mtd ffb xxx

Spike you are a wag!

I've Tweeted Simon to avail him of the situation. Could be that mtd has the solution though, so panic over, peeps!

Keep up yous lot - see my #207 on previus blog. And I'm unemployed!



Deevs, The Housekeeper



x

#40 Oi, unemployed person, get me a cup of Lapsang Souchong would you? 2 sugars, run along now....

How about something my Einsturzende Neubauten (probably spelt that wrong) and it means collapsing new buildings I believe.



Nic



x

Yay, Yip Yip Yibble and Jubilate all round - just taken delivery of my Ion Profile vinyl conversion turntable. Thanks to all for advice proffered. Now, how do you plug it in?.....

Spike - Are you declaring war on the new Independent Republic of ChezNicia - I wouldn't - you haven't seen her Arsenal!



Nic

# 43 what those French effetes you mean? ;-)

can only think of "Muss I Denn" "wooden heart" by Elvis...remember my aunty having it on a 7" she used to live in Germany.

#42 Double Jubilate and a half! It works beautifully - great sound, simplesk software, perfecto!!! First one up was "Low" LP. *swoons, though has half an eye on the window in case GoonerDeevs pulls up outside in a Sherman tank*

Spikeydoodle



GoonerDeevs is far too busy! This Housekeeper stuff takes some doing and I fear I will be shattered by the time MrRolastic returns to the fold this evening, after a hard day of bean counting and giving it some on the treadmill.



(lucky treadmill, I say!)



Washing has been done, bins emptied, jobs applied for and Jeremy Vine switched off. I now have some forms to fill in, passports to design, an episode of Deperate Housewives to watch and a USB turntable gizmo to play with ...... only 500 or so vinyl albums to convert!



And uponm his return, he will be greeted with a pasta concoction with guinea fowl, served with ample helpings of Jus D'Amore.



Hmmmmmmmmm!



Deevs



x

#47 Snap! But alas not guinea fowl, and after 500 LPs I'll be half way there. Then there are the 12"ers....The Gal might go hungryful.....

Hi everybody - the blog's busy today.



I'm going to have to go with either "Hit me" or "99 red balloons" as Google has totally failed to come up with anything better (I don't cheat, really!)

Wowsers - where have you all gorn?



Makes one wonder if instruments generate more blaggage than lyrics ...

oh and Cornish Darren - will you stop teasing me about Jason Isaacs!

I seem to remember one of the tracks on "The Wall" starting with an " ein zwei drei" count in. Scraping the barrell here really.

I'll text Mr9 and ask him - he's a Floyd fan. Although does it count if it's an album track?

#52 - you've got me thinking about Def Leppard now - Remember "Unter, Gleiben, Glaussen, Globen" a the beginning of "Rock Of Ages"? Ah, the New Wave of British Heavy Metal....

Can I just point out that while I may well be Foreign to the English I am still British. Add to it that the English are made up of Normans, Romans, Vikings and Germans where as the Cornish are mainly Celtic full stop I think the Cornish can claim to be definatley not Foreign. Unless you count when the Celts emmigrated from Eastern Europe. Anywayyyyyyy.....



German language version of "Heroes" by "David Bowie" please.



(If Japanese and French becomes the theme of the day through out the week we can have those versions of "Heroes" as well).



Love the show, the host, the staff, the other bloggers, the tweeters, the browsers, the callers, the emailers, the ones that don't even know the show exists (shame on you) and the listeners.



KERNOW BYS VYKEN!!!

Tricky - doesn't Offspring's Pretty Fly For A White Guy start with "Unter, Gleiben, Glaussen, Globen" too?



Give it to me baby - aha, aha!



Deevster



x

#56 - Yes, they shamelessly nicked it Deevs!

Darren - you forgot the Angles and the Saxons (or Anglo Saxons)



'usual pleasantries'



mtd ffb xxx

lol!! and where are they now eh!?!?

#52 It was "Waiting for the worms"

#54 and #56.You are both right. And you are both wrong. Unless you know of someone who can provide a translation, I suspect this is just gobbledegook rock 'n' roll words, a bit like pumpetess. Funny, no-one seems to have suggested Rammstien, yet.(Thank Goodness)

Mutter!



But can't imagine Rammstein on R2 somehow ......



xx

Deevs,not now Wossie is on his bike, anyway. :-)

#61 - I know, Paul, but it would be good to get some Def Leppardacity onto Drivetime - and it does sound vaguely Teutonic...:-)

CDF - Try living in Cannock - that's a whole different language too -

Half Man Half Biscuit - Achtung Bono.



Nic

#65 No thanks



Love the show, the host, the staff, the other bloggers, the tweeters, the browsers, the callers, the emailers, the ones that don't even know the show exists (shame on you) and the listeners.



KERNOW BYS VYKEN!!!

Afternoon (morning) all,



I can't think of anything with german in that hasn't already been mentioned, so I shall just say hello and slink off to resume digging the house out of the 3 feet of snow we currently have here. Anyone want some? Am happy to share... especially as we're forecast another 6-12 inches tomorrow....





Dragonxx



PS Deevs - you currently have the same job title as me - "domestic engineer"

#66 - Your sign off is now longer than your comment...some achievement.

Nic

#68 yep!



Love the show, the host, the staff, the other bloggers, the tweeters, the browsers, the callers, the emailers, the ones that don't even know the show exists (shame on you) and the listeners.



KERNOW BYS VYKEN!!!

#69 O!



Nic

..in the absence of "Vorsprung Durch Technik" and thus, coming up with nuttin' in the way of new suggestions; I give up.

Anything but Falco please. Heard that one already recently, and I like it as much as Ken likes Mika or anyone else likes that chuffin' Firefly song..I thank you..



Ticketygutenabendboo

#72...* sits waiting to be modded, surrepticiously looking to see if I've got got *

This comment was removed because the moderators found it broke the house rules. Explain.

Got got? Where does he come in to it...unless you mean the sublime Larry Gott, of course...



Nic

Spikenmusikfanzisch - was ist das? - (Spike - what is this?) Auf Deutsch? (In German)?



Niklaus

By all that's gorgeous, "Low" is a mighty fine album indeed. Me. Pig. *other word*.

This comment was removed because the moderators found it broke the house rules. Explain.

#77...which reminds me of the wonderful Glasvegas...singing in their Glaswegian accents - took me a while to pick up the words but good stuff nonetheless...



Nic

Nic,

If it's singing in accents we're talking, to be fair..The Macclads would take some beating...:-}



Tickety

Cheating slightly I know but what about Take my Breath away by Berlin?

Tickety,



Ah the MaccLads - No sheep 'til Buxton - classic...and that's about the cleanest one I can think of...!



Nic

Rev, reference the Macclads...don't bother !!

Once got my hi-fi confiscated ( uni )for simply playing them a little too loudly...def. not "respectable music for responsible people", or vice versa...



Tickety

The Macclads...ooh, blimey!!!

I'm not here - 99 red balloons - the goldfinger version (I think) has german and english and is slightly rockier then the original - which comes in both english and german.

I couldn't believe the size of her b**,

She used to play for Wigan at the back of the scrum,



I will leave the rest for you to finish...



Nic

I haven't posted today because I couldn't think of anything amusing, witty or relevant to say (no change there then) but reading some of the posts, you could be speaking in a foreign language anyway - the amount of bands/musicians that I have never heard of that have been mentioned!



I really must try harder!

On a cleaner note, but still unappreciated, no-one liked my Toy Dolls either..Fiery Jack and Florence are forgotten classics !!!!

How about "The Hitler Rap" by "Mel Brooks"?



Love the show, the host, the staff, the other bloggers, the tweeters, the browsers, the callers, the emailers, the ones that don't even know the show exists (shame on you) and the listeners.

Blimey! I go orf to do some printing and yous lot go bananas. And the printing failed so I have now officially got The Hump.

#89 I'm sure you'll pass it onto the King of ChezNikia when he get's home.... ;)

where did that apostrophe come from?

#89 so many jokes crying out to be told because of that last sentence Deevs...

#80 tireecoll, sneaky, but we like sneaky.....

Gwon then .... I can take it. I am, after all, an unemployed Diva .....



x

In that case ..... Adam Ant's Deutsche Girls .... !?!?

The Hump - Is that like The Hulk but purple?



Nic

#73 Dearest shiny happy modders, schadenfreude (taking pleasure in the discomfort of others) is a perfectly commonly accepted loanword in the English language, just like al fresco and loads of others I can't think of at the moment! :)

Spike, Maybe modders were taking some thingumajiggywotsit from your post #73...



Niklaus Humperdink

Print Drivers, Schmint Drivers!



And that's my final word on the subject.



Off to crush a few cans now .......

#98 sensitive poppetflowers, bless their little delete buttons. I love 'em, cos they keep the place clean and tidyful.
