In slightly less apocalyptic news...
Check out Israel's entry to this year's Eurovision,
Push the Button. It's disturbingly catchy. Lyrics (in a combination of English, French and Hebrew) are
here. The runner-up,
Salaam Salami, is also pretty... um... extraordinary.
(For those of you who have never seen the Eurovision song contest before, yes, pretty much all of the music is that bad. But of course, there's controversy -- the contest organizers want to
ban Israel's entry because of "inappropriate political content." This link also has translated lyrics)
Since nobody seems to have translated Salaam Salami,
( here"s a go at itCollapse )Yes, it's political. And yes, it's about sausage. We live in a strange world.
