Title: German Beach Boys
Post by: cutout on July 24, 2008, 06:44:07 PM
I'm sitting in a bar full of Germans just now and the entire Pet Sounds album is playing. The Germans seem to know all the words. For a second, I tried to imagine if the Beach Boys themselves had been German and what that would have sounded like. Then my mind wondered to the imaginary sounds of a Mexican Cat Power and a Japanese Lionel Richie and I started chuckling to myself enough to attract attention.

Any other funny-to-imagine band/nationalities?




/hopes this doesn't go over like Turk-182-it

Sweet! Can't wait to share that with all of my German-speaking co-workers!

Do American pop bands record albums in foreign languages anymore?
