Day 2.
This may very well be the finest piece of Christmas music out there. It should really be saved for closer to Christmas but I have been in rare form of late and I would be ever so sad if I forgot to include it.
I love The Monkees. I love this song. I love Davy Jones.
Lyrics, but I'm no bablefish and I don't know what it means. (Is it in Spanish? I think?)
Riu Chiu - The Monkees.
Riu riu chiu, la guarda ribera;
Dios guardo el lobo de nuestra cordera,
Dios guardo el lobo de neustra cordera.
El lobo rabioso la quiso morder,
Mas Dios poderoso la supo defender;
Quisola hazer que no pudiese pecar,
Ni aun original esta Virgen no tuviera.
Riu, riu chiu...
Este qu'es nacido es el gran monarca,
Christo patriarca de carne vestido;
Hemos redemido con se hazer chiquito,
Aunqu'era infinito, finito se hiziera.
Riu, riu chiu...
Oh Monkees. I think it's probably Spanish now that I look closer at it. Anyway, I'll shut up and let you enjoy.
Oh, and don't ever let me catch you saying The Monkees had/have no talent. I'll pummel ya!
