I really wanna know what this thread says about my song...

www.gitaarnet.nl/forum/viewtopic.php?t=17516

Even knowing what language it is would be helpful...I can tell by looking at words sometimes what language it is (since I run one multilingual website at work) but this I can't tell...no giveaway words for me or anything...

little help?

I kinda had the gut feeling that he is Probe-guy, but wasn't sure. If that is the case, at least I know where to get a translation :-)

Or German,

I'm German and I see a lot of German words in there (Prussian also). But I can't put it all together. Netherlands is a good bet. That area of Europe shares a lot of similarities in dialects.
But I didn't see anything bad.

Well, German is what I thought at first, it seemed to have some German characteristics, but I went to babelfish and tried to get a loose translation and it returned garbage....so it can't be that...I didn't even look at the domain...it is .nl, how stupid of me.

Ah, good idea pixie. Thanks, I forgot most everyone there is from everywhere BUT the US :-)

Oh, and for those of you that are wondering, the "other place" is Hiveminds, a great developers forum from which I have found untold knowledge. www.hiveminds.info/phpBB/ and actually where pixelpixie and I first bumped into one another.

i guess i should've said that m'self, don't let em know i'm so slack!!!!

it doesn't matter how long i work on the web, but i'm always taken aback when it turns out i've bumped into someone i've never met, if you know what i mean. like with db, i guess we've been exchanging comments for nigh on 12 months...

Here, this handy translation from FreeTranslation.com should clear things up:

"That the bottom "**** bite" have I the vocals by done that is someone from America that had consequently son number made only had yet no vocals, consequently have I that for him ingezongen. The number not proposes already too much, but I D8
let I the but hear. "

Wow, that should be in Rolling Stone :)

Dictionary.com also renamed your song to "**** mouthful paunch", which I think you should consider as a new working title :-D

I remember something about Golden Earring being Dutch and that the lyrics to "Twilight Zone " are a direct translation from the Dutch lyrics.
Which explains, "My beacon's been moved under moon and stars" (??)
You might want to consider what they meant and not what they said. Ha! Ha! Ha!

thanks dude, I forgot about that website. I will try the rest of the thread.

I love online translators. They generally get the thought across, but the actually trnaslation is pretty funny.

I've been giggling to myself about these translations for about 10 minutes now! I think I'm going to have to play with them some more.

It doesn't sound like the dude liked george's lead guitar work very much.

Here is a full translation straight from a native Dutchy:

- (Probeguy) With the bottom song "**** Happens" I included the vocals. There is someone from America that made a song but did not yet have the vocals, so I recorded them for him. The song is not all that special, but I thought I would let you hear it anyway.

- (Probeguy) Come on. I want to know what you think. You are looking but not writing anything.
Not that I am impatient.

- (Roadkill) Hmmm. I am distracted by the false lead guitar. The singing is not bad, not much power, fun double singing.
You would have been off better if you would have faded the last piece of the singing. You are completely flawing there.

- (Probeguy)Yes, that is because he changed the end. At first there was some kind of guitar solo. The song originally lasted 4 min 19 sec. I have that version here but it is not mixed or anything like that. Finally a response: D
Thx neighbor on the motorcycle that almost runs me over every day

- (Roadkill) Oh, is that you. You better watch out. You always have to yield to people on bikes.

Hilarious! I love the reference to the daily motorcycle dodging. I threw a couple classes in that neck of the woods, Sweden and Denmark. Had a blast. Truely fun loving folks up there. We played botchi until nobody could stand up and the sun went down for its 2 hour nap. Really neat group. A few from Spain, Italy and Greenland with the mix that added spice to the competition. The Italians where a stich!

i almost went to holland (netherlands) after i got out of the military. it was with a service the contracted prior military for DOD related jobs. i was going to instruct the Royal Netherlands Airforce how to do the job i did when i was in the USAF, which was avionics repair. Too bad the firm was underbid by a local company. i'd have a nice ducati to show for it, hehe.
