For some reasons, my radio could no longer pick up 107 FM without some “luk thung” ( thai country ) songs playing simultaneously. While flicking thru the channels , I found 104.5 , a Thai indy song station. A nice alternative , some of the songs are bilingual too. There’s this song by a band called “Jui Jui” that’s been played almost every hour. It’s in Japanese …
Jui Jui singing : * strong guitar strumming * ke wa na ottowa …. aso wa kodewa…
me, thinking : thai music scene so damn cool, we so multi-lingual, man.
Jui Jui, singing : ya kee mo ! ya kee mo ! ohhh….. ohhho ….
me, thinking : what is yakeemo ? … sounds like japanese dessert…
halfway thru the song , Jui Jui, singing : … Doraemon, Nobita, Shisuka, Giant, Szu-na-ok …
me : ARGGHHH!!!
” Ya Kee-mo ” in thai means “don’t be a braggart.” Maybe I’m imagining the other parts, did their lyrics have ‘ a$$hole’ and ‘ shut up ‘ in it too ? Or is it just gibberish ? Anyone understands Japanese ? Please tell me. Here’s a link to the song.
