I don't understand how Nikki Minaj can release albums, let alone be a judge on American Idol.

I don't understand what happened to the nightowl thread.
Had the page open, next time I checkedy phone it disappeared as I checked the Internet.
Maybe somebody was rude on it?

How did Nena get the lyrics for 99 Luftballons to rhyme in both the German and English versions?

That's a question that really needs an answer.

[RustyCage]

Neither versions really rhyme much at all

You and I, and a little toy SHOP
Buy a bag of balloons with the money we've GOT
Set them free at the break of DAWN
'Til one by one, they were GONE

Back at base, bugs in the softWARE
Flash the message, "Some thing's out THERE"
Floating in the summer SKY
Ninety-nine red balloons go BY

Rhymes to me?

I don't know what made up version i was reading the lyrics to then

[dedja]

I accept your apology ...

[RustyCage]

this is what i read, not sure if it is the English translation of the German version rather than a rewritten one which the version we know could be?

99 Luftballons - English

German Text: Carlo Karges
Translation: Hyde Flippo
Musik: Uwe Fahrenkrog-Petersen

Have you some time for me,
then I'll sing a song for you
about 99 balloons
on their way to the horizon.
If you're perhaps thinking about me right now
then I'll sing a song for you
about 99 balloons
and that such a thing comes from such a thing.

99 balloons
on their way to the horizon
People think they're UFO's from space
so a general sent up
a fighter squadron after them
Sound the alarm if it's so
but there on the horizon were
only 99 balloons.

99 fighter jets
Each one's a great warrior
Thought they were Captain Kirk
then came a lot of fireworks
the neighbors didn't understand anything
and felt like they were being provoked
so they shot at the horizon
at 99 balloons.

99 war ministers
matches and gasoline canisters
They thought they were clever people
already smelled a nice bounty
Called for war and wanted power.
Man, who would've thought
that things would someday go so far
because of 99 balloons.

99 years of war
left no room for victors.
There are no more war ministers
nor any jet fighters.
Today I'm making my rounds
see the world lying in ruins.
I found a balloon,
think of you and let it fly (away).

ok, problem solved, the English translation of the German version doesn't rhyme, so an English version was written so that it did rhyme

German:
Hast du etwas Zeit für mich
Dann singe ich ein Lied für dich
Von 99 Luftballons
Auf ihrem Weg zum Horizont
Denkst du vielleicht g'rad an mich
Dann singe ich ein Lied für dich
Von 99 Luftballons
Und dass so was von so was kommt

English:
Do you have some time to myself
I'll sing a song for you
Of 99 balloons
On their way to the horizon
Do you think maybe g'rad me
I'll sing a song for you
Of 99 balloons
And this does not come from something

Bit of a hairy situation..

Maybe we should start calling it "delayed climax" on the womans end and see if it catches on.

theres a missing person thing on the news here in QLD, not sure if it has gone australia wide yet.

Story is - Husband went overseas with their 2 kids to indonesia, the same day that the wife (asian woman) went "missing", and the husband is not a suspect.

But the husband of the couple went overseas on the same day that his wife went "missing". Her car has been found in coomera over the past few days, and the husband has sent a message from indonesia where he is at saying "i hope she returns home when she can".

Well if my wife went missing , if i ever have one, i wouldnt be just sending a message back to australia saying " i hope she returns soon", i would be on the first flight back home to look for her? Or am i completely wrong here???
