It bugs me quite a bit because the music and artists preformances was great, but it can't be helped as the annoyance factor was tweaked to the max - IMO mixing up languages like that is the mother of all bad ideas.<br /><br />Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't the Japansese band Concerto Moon do the same thing? I have never owned anything they've released - but heard a few songs here and there through the years]]></description>

There were glimpses of English within the lyrics, but the flurry of vowels sounds that followed usually suggested another language may have been involved. A simple word like &quot;fool&quot; would be expanded to Foo-oo-oo-aa--ee-aaee-oo-oo-llahhhhh, also involving a couple of throat clicks that suggested something a lot more Amazonian may be at play, further confusing the origins of the text.<br /><br />These days they have a Filipino lead singer who's English diction is impeccable]]></description>

So I am pretty much used to it, and sometimes find it funny looking at the booklet trying to figure it out...<br /><br />Re: The Doro reference, yes she had German songs on some of the albums, also had done Spanish and French versions of her songs, I hear &quot;Für immer&quot; is a VERY famous song abroad - especially in Spain... !?<br /><br />Didn't like the Kingdom Come German album: Ouch !<br /><br />Thinking about it, Michael Borman had a song in German on his last CD, not so much my cup of tea either...]]></description>

Being a big fan of Harem Scarem, I looked for everything they were involved with and I saw a record store online that had this one listed but they had all the song titles listed in English so I didn't realize it was a bunch of english and Japanese mixed. I was pissed and sold it on ebay.]]></description>

I just simply wont buy it if I'm not going to understand half of what's on there.]]></description>
