about machinae & sweden

[leicesterfox]

I wrote a post a while back about this, but the idea of a machinae song in swedish is still rambling on in my mind.

I mean its just an idea, but I ain't heard nothing from any of the band members, let alone Robert ?

So whats the take on that then ?

Yay or Nay ?

[MashedByMachines]

yes, an unofficial song in swedish, from robert with or without the band would be awesome i have thought of it also

Hmm, I think I said this last time too, that it's kind of unlikely since swedish is a rather ugly language imo. It'd take some weird fluke of inspiration to write a swedish song, and I'm not holding my breath for that to happen.

It's fun that you have that thought, though.

[Eliminator]

maybe a song in swedish describing how even an ugly language like swedish can still find true love? 

[MashedByMachines]

i doesnt have to be good, or seriuos for that matter
indeed swedish is not a nice language to sing in

I STRONGLY disagree Robert. It's a shame you don't appreciate your beautiful language. I heard it for the first time in my life when I was 10 and visited Sweden, and I've been in love wih it Since. I still like German more, but Swedish is also amazing. I plan on learning it after I learn German. It especially sounds sexy (they both do actually) when spoken by a chic, so maybe you could have a half-Swedish half-English song, and the Swedish bits could even be short bits in the song or the chorus or something, and they could be sung by a Swedish girl with a nice voice. And the song could still be heavy and melodic like TTLG or something, and that would rock.

wow, that sounds like an amazing idea.
lets do it robert plzplzplz mkthx 

[FallenTabris]

hahaha.. I don't think it's any coincidence that there are so many Swedish groups that sing only in in English.

[Bates]

Then machinae should make a song in German. Damn, that would rock. 

Or better yet, one third English, Swedish and German.

[GeeDougg]

Bateman's idea (or sub-extension or my own idea? - whichever) rules.

FallenTabris: Sweden's a country where some TV channels are ni English with Swedish subtitles, so that's not surprising. Besides they're a small country that's over-exposed to all things English-speaking and American in origin.

What about the other two thirds?

[GeeDougg]

I think he meant one-third English, one-third German, and one-third Swedish.

[Smeagol]

Or better yet, one third English, Swedish and German.

Then enter it into the Eurovision song contest!

The what?

Only one of the most amusing annual programmes ever created. Once a year, a bunch of european countries pick an artist to represent their country in the Eurovision. They sing a 3 minute long song, and everyone in the included European countries votes on it. Most entries are fucking hilarious.
