What about U2?? I've seen "Rattle and Hum" with Bono going around the churches of Harlem. And I'm sure there's always been a hip hop element to their music. |

haha 
that was funny.
at least, I hope you were joking 
Republic Of Loose swear like troopers, too. Saint Bono wouldn't do such a thing
just wish I knew Spanish well enough to know what all that obscenity on the last sleeve means in English |

hmmm... it isn't the most legible piece of text you'll ever see, but I'll see what I can do from the CD sleeve...
(left to right - back row)
Girl 1 of 4:
La jodida Republic Of Loose. Vaya pandilla de idiotas.
Girl 2 of 4:
"Te voy a joder bien chica," Que cojones se supone que significa eso? Que le joden a ese retardado, a todos sus amigos y a su familia!
Girl 4 of 4:
Son una pandilla de gordos mentirosos!
(front row)
Girl 1 of 1:
Ah, no son tan malos. Uno de elbs escribio una cancion sobre mi hermana
I don't recognise half of those words, and I did Spanish for a time, although it's almost 10 years now since that. Maybe it's Mexican! |

Girl 2 of 4 says: "I'm gonna fuck-up myself real young," What kind of person has the balls to make that kind of music? What the fuck is wrong with that retarded person, to all of your friends and family!
Girl 4 of 4 says: A band of fat liars!
Girl 1 of 1 says: Ah, don't be so mean. One of those wrote a song about my sister

eh? you didn't upset me, what makes you think you upset me?
thanks for the translation!  sounds just like what you'd expect. The singer is always going on about being fat, anyway
I just thought it funny, coz before, they had to censor the title to leave it as GIRL I'M GONNA FU*K YOU UP, but then, nobody bats an eye when there's swearing in another language!
I sorta guessed it was Mexican Spanish, coz I reckon I'd have known some more of it were it the Spanish they speak in Spain (I'm only presuming that it varies in Mexico, I don't know for sure)
I suppose the artwork was a bit of a giveaway, tho |

it's just that they sound a little negative about themselfs, as if they ain't feelin' high & bright about they're self-esteem.

ah, you gotta be able to laugh at yr'self. You can't be from Ireland and do the kind of music they do if they couldn't
here's a live pic, you can judge if they look like idiots or not...
(don't know who that guy in the middle is)

i know how to laugh at meself very much so, it's just i don't know you well enough to begin with. In other words, i did'nt know how you would take it. Let me tell you a story, if don't mind me takin' a bit of yur time. One time i was at a party & some guy started to make fun of my cousin's friend & my cousin's friend got mad & wanted to fight him for makin' fun of him. Well, turns out the guy was only kidding & so the guy apolgised to him, but i think it's just plain-out dumb to make fun of someone you don't know, even if yur just kidding.

hmmm... but I think the CD cover differs in that the band were making fun of themselves, as opposed to someone making fun of someone else, as in your story. Or are we both not following what each other is saying?

yr right, they look like idiots. |
something tells me all you can see is a little white box with a little red x in it... as that's what I get now, although it worked fine at first. Or maybe you did see it, and do think they look like idiots. In which case, have you forgotten about your story back there?
Well, it should show up now, anyway. |
