ROFL.....Prust..... den kannt ich ja noch gar nicht

On a more serious note, bezueglich dieser "neuen Version" stimme ich Heiner zu.

Ich habe heute auch davon Auszüge im Radio gehört, hörte sich eigentlich nicht gut an. Da ich aber kein Spanisch kann, weiss ich auch nicht ob das nur eine Übersetzung oder eine Satire ist. Wenn das eine Satire ist, ist es natürlich an Geschmackslosigkeit nicht zu übertreffen!

how it was written in the article .... and thought a bit further....
if someone would sing the "Mayonaise" in english, you would have again burning cars in Paris.

English only, please.

Oops...sorry....I hadn't realized we were in the English-only section.

So by now I am agreeing with both Heiner and MaDe, all in one thread.....almost certainly a first

Concerning "translation or satire":
Even if it was a "just a translation", I would not think it right. They could use a translation to help Spanish-speaking people get the gist of the English text, but it should still be sung in English.
