That is the actual grahics screen of a song I sing (or try to sing)  Nobody in the crowd knows that languge so I can fake it pretty good..  It is a very popular song...

Hint:   It is public Domain...

I don't remember much Italian.  It doesn't appear to be a form a spanish.  Mesa would translate as Table,  Stathes perhaps states ?

Provale in Italian though is "they try", but that's not correct phrasing I don't think, Of course it might be Serb too, or slovak.

They tried___ mesa states___ to here to do so ?

Ollie,  post a few more lyrics.  Something's not right with that as it stands.

All unfamilar languges are greek..  This is about a tired old man and can he make it through the week.. He might have been on an island..

ah CooL!!!  :biggrinthumb:


I was racking my brain trying to figure that one out..  LOL

Im still lost though.  :yes: Guess I better get some rest before my brain shorts out trying to figure this out, I never was very good at this stuff.  :no:

Later & cheers  :beermates:

Unless you sing a verse of O Sole Mio that Andrea Bocelli didn't sing, it ain't that.

I thought maybe the words were spelled phoenetically on the screen...?

Strose to stroma sou gia dio  ???

By... MIKIS THEODORAKIS ???

Words in English
The road is dark
until I meet you.
Meet me in the road
that I may give you my hand.
Make your bed for two,
for you and for me,
that we may embrace each other from the start
and all will be brought back to life.
I embraced you, you embraced me.
You took from me and I took from you.
I lost myself in your eyes and in your fate.

Words in Native Tongue
O dromos ine skotinos
ospu na síandamoso.
Kseprovale me sto strati
to khyeri na su dhoso.
Chorus:
Strose to stroma su ya dhyo
ya sena ke ya meoa
/níanbgalyastume apítin arkhi
na ëní ola anastimeoa./
Síangalyasa míangalyses.
Mu pires ke su pira.
Khathika mes sta matya su
ke sti dhiki su mira.

It had been a Greek dance for a long long time..link

It was made more famous by the movie Zorba The Greek... It is one of my most popular songs and blows people away if they have never heard it... It is one of the few SC for a split second before the last SC logo it pops up public domain..

but this is what you stated

KSE PROVALE
MESA STATHES

Strati *IS* a different word.  It's the plural of Stratus which is a word that evolved from greek or latin, and is used in the english language.  Very different definition.

Zorba the Greek (originally titled Alexis Zorbas) is a 1964 film based on the novel Zorba the Greek by Nikos Kazantzakis. The film was directed by Michael Cacoyannis and the title character was played by Anthony Quinn–who was not Greek but in fact Mexican American. The supporting cast included Alan Bates as a visiting Englishman. The theme, "Sirtaki" by Mikis Theodorakis, is famous.

The movie was shot on location on the Greek island of Crete. Specific places featured include the town of Chania, the Apokoronas region and the Akrotiri peninsula. The famous scene, in which Quinn's character dances the Sirtaki, was shot on the beach of the village of Stavros.

The movie won three Academy Awards. Lila Kedrova won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress, Vassilis Fotopoulos won the Oscar for Best Art Direction in black-and-white set decoration, and Walter Lassally won the Oscar for Best Cinematography in black-and-white. Lassally's Oscar is shown in Tavern Christiana in Stavros.

Quinn received the nomination for Best Leading Actor in a leading role and Michael Cacoyannis received three nominations for Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Writing, and Screenplay Based on Material from Another Medium.

Well you must think about that is a karaoke Track....and for it to be Sound Choice and have those mis translations!!! ....I am disapointed in SC...

I am a big Sound Choice fan, but looks like there Quality Control dept was slacking!

oh well ...they are still better than MM with there real bad changing of lyrics, or DK with there stupid pan flute!!!

oh it's karaoke ya know...

I can't stand that panflute... If I ordered anything that had that damn panflute on it I'd regret not downloading Dr T's Singalong instead, which is much better quality than that horrid off tempo noise..
