So here's a new game.  It might be lame, but nobody is talking and this is the only thing I can think of to do.

I'm going to take a fairly well known lyric and translate it using an online translator, into french, back into English, into Spanish and back into English again.

The first person that decyphers the lyric - gets to post the next one.

"This is close to late night and hides something badly In the obscure."

Stuck in the closet with Vanna White?   ;D

No, but nice try.   :-*

Alice

Yeah, I think this was lame.  But I'm just trying to get people to talk.  *sigh* 

Where is everyone?

Jessie

I'd think you'd know that by now.  Jeez.

Closing time - you don't have to go home but you can't stay here.

Here's an easy one.  Maybe.

"Only you can do this world to seem barely"

Nope.

Here's a hint: late night = midnight

Bennyhana

I was actually singing this in the shower this morning - the version from So I married an Axe Murderer.

I've got another easy one.  It amuses me to see where in the translaton things get screwed up.  I saw one get screwed up in here by a French homonym.

"The it left the lights, Among the night, they take the hand, we are of never never land"

Metallica sucks.  ;)

Bennyhana

This one got screwed up because the french HATE ending sentences with prepositions.

"All the Solitary people, of which do they come?  "

Hint: Beatles
