So here's how it works.  Take a lyric from one of your favourite songs, translate it to Japanese here: http://babelfish.yahoo.com/translate_txt then translate it back to English again.  First person who works out what the original lyrics were before the translation, and can name the song, gets to do the next one.

hmm this all sounds a bit long winded but it'll work, trust me!

Here is the result of my first attempt:

As for me it was in your arm thinking, as for me the fact that my that has formed meaning was calculated belonged there
