Been on an 80's kick (Prolly from playing GTA:Vice City) DLed the totally english version of 99 Luftballoons (99 Red Balloons) and man it's a damn kewl image:



You and I in a little toy shop

Buy a bag of balloons

With the money we've got

Set them free at the break of dawn

Till one by one they were gone

Back at base, boxing the software

Flash the message "Something's out there"

Floating in the summer sky

99 red balloons go by



99 red balloons floating in the summer sky

Panicked birds, it's red alert

There's something there from somewhere else

The war machine springs to life

Opens up one eager eye

Focusing in on the sky

99 red balloons go by



99 decisions treaty, 99 ministers meets

To worry-worry, super scurry

Call the troops out in a hurry

This is what we've waited for

This is it boys, this is war

The president is on the line

As 99 red balloons go by



99 knights of the air ride

Super hi-tech jet fighters

Everyone's a super hero

Everyone's a captain kirk

With orders to identify

To clarify and classify

Scramble in the summer sky

99 red balloons go by



99 dreams I have had

And every one a red balloon

It's all over and I'm standing pretty

In this dust that was a city

I could find a souvenier

Just to prove the world was here

And here is a red balloon

I think of you and let it go...



..I wonder if that Nena chick was hot..

They also didn't write that song.

The original singer was female! Non-goldfingeresque

Yeah goldfinger's cover I thought wasn't too bad..

SoniX 04-17-2004 07:29 PM

and the line is "bugs in the software" not "boxing the software"
