I heard this on the radio and decided we should give it a try. You take popular song lyrics and then translate them into a couple different languages, and then back to English. So like take the lyrics from 'We Are the Champions', translate them from English to French, French to German, and then German back to English, and you get this:
We are the masters - my friends
And we will continue at the fight - up to the end -
We are the masters -
We are the masters
No time for losers
a ' cause is we the masters - of the world -
Okay, well bad example, but you get the idea.
Now try this one, post what you think the song is. I translated it from English, to French, to German, back to English. If that's too much of a hint, I won't tell you next time.
Us by the snow
in an open carriage
O ' it a horse to rush into the fields
we will laugh the whole kind

I am thouroughly confused right now

Jingle Bells. I'll put a song up later.
Sat Dec 10, 2005 9:15 am
Too easy? I figured we'd start simple. Try to pick a song that most people would know.
tsbarbee2002, I translated the lyrics to Jingle Bells through a translator (to French, then German, then back to English) and then you guess what the song is. The catch is that the lyrics are a little bit different once you translate them back to English.

That seems pretty damn hard, but i'll give the next one a try
Sat Dec 10, 2005 9:50 am
It depends how well you know the song. If you've only heard it a few times, chances are you'll have difficulty, but most are not too hard if you think about them.
