¿ªÔÆÌåÓýIt¡¯s a bloody marvel is the internet! ? adam ? From: <[email protected]> on behalf of Dimitris Triantopoulos <mitsos@...> ? Speaking of songs stuck in one's head for years and years... ? I often have had this tune stuck in my head, a tune that has some added kiddie lyrics about a little goat... Basically, some "real" song with some added joke/jingle lyrics that we thought were funny when we were kids (all this in Greek). It goes like this: aba-ni-bi-ah-ba-ni-beh---to katsikaki kanei behhh (translation:"aba-ni-bi-ah-ba-ni-beh---the little goat goes "beeeh").? ? So I googled it, in Greek characters, about a month ago (after decades of singing it at random moments, without having a clue as to the origin) ?"¦Á ¦Ì¦Ð¦Á ¦Í¦É ¦Ì¦Ð¦É ¦Á ¦Ì¦Ð¦Á ¦Í¦É ¦Ì¦Ð¦Å" ? And what do I find????!!!! it is the 1978 Eurovision entry of Israel (and winner of the contest): ? I don't know what amazed me more: how old the origins of that melody embedded in my brain is, or the fact that I put the query?in Google (which makes zero sense in Greek, it's just meaningless syllables) and it found it immediately... ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
