If you heard it on the radio, you might think it was Bob Dylan doing a sweet collab with James Brown and those kids that sang on The Wall with Pink Floyd…
But no, it’s just some Italian artists making gibberish sound like English.
No one has done it better since Lewis Carrol:
Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.“Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!”He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought—
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
And stood awhile in thought.And as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!One, two! One, two! and through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.“And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!”
He chortled in his joy.‘Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

That video is amazing.
I love it.
That was fantastic.
that too
this song is unbelievably catchy
James Joyce beats Lewis Carrol on the gibberish front – and keeps doing it for 700 pages.
