    I love this song, but just learned the intro is Arabic: “Oh my night oh my night What a long time its been That I've been searching for the love of my life That I've been searching for the love of my life That I've been searching for my love…”

    This may be my only chance I get to introduce the wonderful Dutch band BLØF to you all. Universal approached them to so this collab with The Counting Crows back in 2004. A fusion of two great voices and languages!

    I went with a different route, people probably went with a Spanish and English song. I wanted to change it up a little.

    The smoothest language switches you'll ever hear between two of the most different languages. Taiwan's OSN ('awr-shwen') can do Nu-Metal and raunchy R&B, but found the most commercial success with sensitive heartbreak rap-ballads. His swagger songs are better and suit you guys more. I bet you bounced!

    When I did an exchange program to Germany in high school, this song was massive at the clubs. Still don't understand how Lil Kim rapping in German over a Notorious BIG track didn't land in the US.

    Two languages? That would be child’s play!

    It took me many years to realize that the chorus female voice is singing “Les Yeux Sans Visage”. Eyes without a Face. It’s based on a 60’s French horror film about a plastic surgeon who is obsessed with recreating his daughter’s image after an accident. Nostalgia. The rap breakdown got put in there, “because it was the 80’s, everyone was doing it.”
