...anyway, we're just joking, come on...

sylvian, a question: but why has Scaruffi (who is, has been, and always will be a huge gigantic... jerk) become such a recurring nightmare on Debaser? why are you all so mortified, speechless, devastated, despondent because of his reviews? what the hell do you care???? like dear Peppe Weapon, whom I embrace and greet ("bowie, sniff, read Scaruffi, sniff, and you will understand...). come on, let's all hold hands and... Scaruffi, can you hear us? FUCK YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU UULO!
oh how does that feel now? :-) a big hello, and anyway this is a very beautiful album. do you like it? well then that’s enough!

Really, if you happen to read the message, take a look at the review of AQUA AQUARIUM. Unique, unrepeatable, cathartic, anthological moments :-) long live the massacre!!!!!!! :-)

Who they are, I don’t know / the strange little blue men / they are about / two apples high and a little more / We Smurfs are like this / we are blue Smurfs / we smurf about / two apples high and a little more / They live far from here / in the enchanted city / uuuuuuuuuuuu / sheltered from the forest, the desert, the mountains, and the sea / Their houses are quite funny / the mushrooms down there / in the woods you will see them / near the blue river / (solo by May) / We smurf down there / the very Smurf mushrooms / you can smurf them / near the blue river / MI RE RE RE RE / MI RE RE RE RE RE RE RE RE EE OH/

TRANSLATION "THREE DOGS": Ooh ooh the pain is so close to pleasure oh yes / The fair weather and the rainy weather go together hand in hand for life / Ooh ooh the pain is so close to pleasure everyone knows it / One day we love each other / Then we fight each other all the time / When I was young and just starting out / And people would talk to me / I felt like they had broken hearts / Then I grew up and understood my feelings / And all I wanted was to start a relationship / So I fell in love / but love had a bad reaction / I was looking for a bit of the old satisfactions / But pain is all I had / when all I needed was a little love and affection / Ooh ooh the pain is so close to pleasure yes yes /

Ooh, ooh, pain is so close to pleasure, oh yeah / Sunshine and rainy weather go hand in hand together all your life / Ooh, ooh, pain is so close to pleasure everybody knows / One day we love each other then we're fighting one another all the time / When I was young and just getting started / And people talked to me they sounded broken hearted / Then I grew up and got my imagination / And all I wanted was to start a new relation / So in love but love had a bad reaction / I was looking for some good old satisfaction /

an ode to Queen (whom I adore, ed.) dedicated to Ogre Battle: from the metal masterpiece "A Kind Of Magic", the unmistakable granite riff of "Pain is so close to pleasure" :-)

I don't know who they are
the strange little blue men
they're about the height
of two apples and a bit more
We Smurfs are like this
we are blue Smurfs
we're about the height
of two apples and a bit more
They live far from here
in the enchanted city
sheltered by the forest, the desert, the mountains, and the sea
They are quite funny homes
the mushrooms down there
in the woods you'll see them
near the blue river
We puff down there
the very Smurf mushrooms
you can puff them
near the blue river

Ooh ooh pain is so close to pleasure oh yes /
Good times and rainy times go together hand in hand
throughout life /
Ooh ooh pain is so close to pleasure everyone knows it /
One day we love each other /
Then we fight each other all the time /
When I was young and just starting out /
And people talked to me /
I felt like they had broken hearts /
Then I grew up and understood my feelings /
And all I wanted was to start a relationship /
So I fell in love /
but love had a bad reaction /
I was looking for a bit of the old satisfactions /
But pain is all I got /
when all I needed was a bit of love and affection /
Ooh ooh pain is so close to pleasure yes yes /

Ooh, ooh, pain is so close to pleasure, oh yeah /
Sunshine and rainy weather go hand in hand together all your life /
Ooh, ooh, pain is so close to pleasure everybody knows /
One day we love each other then we're fighting one another all the time /
When I was young and just getting started /
And people talked to me they sounded broken hearted /
Then I grew up and got my imagination /
And all I wanted was to start a new relation /
So in love but love had a bad reaction /
I was looking for some good old satisfaction /
