I just think the scansion and rhythm of the vocals work a little better in the english version. I admit it could be because that's the version I've heard first and most.

 
Still looking for the scansion marks.......

No, that'll be Lebanese Red, which was my favourite brand of hash way back when. Smooth, soft, mellow, and with a real Clang! Honk! Tweet! hit in the tail.

Thievery and most other misdemeanors make great band names.  Therefore, they are rated 10. That gives me a great idea for a band name "Vagrancy Incorporated."

Come on, Fred.  You can't go comparing beer and wine: they fulfill different needs (usually).  Anyhow, quite a cool tune - whatever she's singing about.

 "Lebanese Blonde" is a slang term used to describe particularly high purity Lebanese hashish.

Saw them last night at the Beacon Theater in NYC, and they opened with this.   Great show AND Massive Attack also played.   Nice.

Saw them play this live on PBS' Austin City Limits a few weeks ago.  Inspired me to take a trip to see them at Red Rocks next month.  Can't wait!

Well, I learned something new today!  Had absolutely NO idea what "Lebanese Blonde" was, as I do not partake in those type of things....  Always loved the song, and now the lyrics make much more sense!  {#Embarassed}
