Would be cool....I only speak English, but it would be awesome to hear some Green Day songs in Japanese or something :happy: or Welsh!

Posted

it would be too strange..i've heard some musicians play their songs in italian i don't like it..but gd could play those live sometimes.i'm curious

Posted

No.

IIf they did a good job writing a complete foreign language translation for the song, then yeah! Sometimes literal translations sound weird and don't make sense.

Would Billie have to sing in the differnet language or would some1 else do it?

Posted

It would kind of mess up the song...

I wanna hear Basket case in Spanish :eyebrows:

Posted

no.

"koko wa shibito no machi -- mayoi michi no ikitomari

Hyoushiki ha ikitomari he to tsureteyuku

koko wa saiaku no machi -- mayoigotachi wa kitanai kao de daremo kinishinai kedo

toire no kabe no rakugaki kinante shoppingu mooru no seishou to onaji

shinkoubukaisou ni mieru kedo hontou ni shinjiteru wakejanai

demo okagede hakkiri shita

chikyuu no do mannaka ha chikyuu no owari

douse ore ni wa kankei nai"

;D don't' know if you can read the first Japanese characters on the forum or not

All I see are question marks.

Anyway, I guess it would be cool. It would be different.

it would be awesome in:

italian

german

japanese

with a heavy british accent

It would be different but i like Billie Joe's voice just the way it is. It wouldn't sound the same.

Posted

Well. I haven't listened to Green Day all year.

WTF? :blink: I struggled being deprived of them for a week! :blink:

He ones said something like "What has two thumbs, speaks french and love f*** Ups? Moi!" If that's what you mean.....

Yeah :lol: I think that's where I heard it - my memory sucks! :rolleyes:

Posted

Sure, It would be great for Green Day's treasures to be shared with a wider variety of cultures, but listening to those songs in some creepy annoying remixes would drain all the living passion you feel every time Billie Joe lays out a vocal, the lyrics wouldn’t make sense and the overall ora and magic spark of the band could loose the right to that thought, or be overshadowed by an ' international sensation' type of reputation - I just couldn’t see it happening.

if anyone knows a language besides english they should post a song translation here...(although no one can understand them)

Posted

a friend heard the beginninng of stuck with me, and said "hey! that's the song they sing in spanish, no?", and i was life "wtf?"

but it would be great hearing them in spanish :lol:

imagine Billie Joe saying "¿Tienes el tiempo de oírme quejandome?"

that's "Do you have the time to listen to me whine?" :eyebrows:

Posted

You can't just chane a song from english to spanish cause of syllabication and shit it would sound all wrong.

Posted

Posted

Yes, I quite like that idea, good one. No particular song, just some random foreign Green Day.

here's WMUWSE in spanish: :eyebrows:

Despiertame cuando septiembre acabe

el verano ha llegado y se ha ido

la inocencia no dura por siempre

despiértame cuando septiembre acabe

como mis padres vinieron para irse

siete años han pasado tan rápido

despiértame cuando septiembre acabe

aquí viene la lluvia otra vez

cayendo de las estrellas

empapado en mi dolor otra vez

convirtiendonos en quienes somos

Mi memoria descansa

pero nunca olvida lo que perdí

despiértame cuando septiembre acabe

el verano ha llegado y se ha ido

la inocencia no dura por siempre

despiértame cuando septiembre acabe

haz sonar las campanas otra vez

como lo hicimos cuando llegó la primavera

despiértame cuando septiembre acabe

aquí viene la lluvia otra vez

cayendo de las estrellas

empapado en mi dolor otra vez

convirtiendonos en quienes somos

Mi memoria descansa

pero nunca olvida lo que perdí

despiértame cuando septiembre acabe

el verano ha llegado y se ha ido

la inocencia no dura por siempre

despiértame cuando septiembre acabe

como el venir para marcharse de mi padre

veinte años han pasado tan deprisa

despiértame cuando septiembre acabe

despiértame cuando septiembre acabe

despiértame cuando septiembre acabe

That's very nice Jose, I'd be more impressed if you done one of those Sync things where Billie's english gets turned into Spanish :)

DOMINATED LOVE SLAVE

voglio essere il tuo succube schiavo d'amore

voglio essere quello che soffre

puoi sculacciarmi quando mi comporto male

colpirmi in fronte con una catena

perchè adoro sentirmi sporco

e adoro sentirmi volgare

adoro quando mi fai male

e allora affonda questi ganci

ok stop it sound really bad
