I'm looking forward to a 1983 Mouton when I get to the UK later this week!

Salutemus socii
nos qui sumus bibuli
tabernam sicco ore
Potemus alacriter
scyphi impleantur iugiter
Ludamus solito more.

from "Hiemali Tempore" by In Extremo :P

Oh you clever culture vulture! How can such wonderful sentiments look so damned ugly? Iz will have to wait for a visit to the nasty netcafe to find out how they sound. Most medieval I hope!

It sounds just like a medieval drinking song ! That's what I thought of it even before reading the translation :) I can so imagine a group of University students (medieval University, of course) singing it in a pub. Although another Latin song, "Omnia Sol Temperat", sounds this way too but it's about love.

Do they let you listen to mp3's in a netcafe ? can you download them to some temporary place, or they have to be online ?

It's fascinating to try figuring out the exact meaning of each word from these parallel translations of weird languages. For example Merserburger Zaubersprueche II which is kind of a Pagan spell, in old German.
