Check that link I gave you there and it tells you about that about how it's it a madeup language, as well as having a link to the lyrics and video and sound files. I haven't found a translation of the words anywhere mind you.

I think the idea was that, what with Gaelic lyrics, and with Elven lyrics in Lord of the Rings and with Latin Gregorian Chant, it is clear that lyrics in languages listeners can't understand can work quite well - and of course they are international by definition.

Next year maybe there'll be a Heavy Metal entry in Klingon. The UK could try it. N obody guives "Nul points" to a Klingon...

Presumably, Dave, you don't have some appropriate bit of software in your computer for that link. The title of the Belgian entry is "Sanomi", so maybe if you google around you could find a site with a file your computer might like better.
