It's the line that sounds (to >me) something like "She's So ..." (unintelligible word). At the risk of being redundant with the thousands of other replies that will be posted... It's french for "games without frontiers": "Jeux sans front`iers". >Also, what album is that song from? PG's third solo album (PGIII) (arguably his best (and not just because Kate is singing backup...)). As long as we're on the subject, has anyone deciphered who all the people mentioned in the song are? Adolf and Enrico are pretty obvious, but what about Hans, Lotte, Jane, Willi, Suki, Leo, Britt, Andre, Chiang Ching, and Lin Tai Yu? Are these real people or are they just metaphors for counties? =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= WITH disclaimer; USE disclaimer; Steve Tynor Georgia Tech Research Institute tynor@gitpyr.gatech.edu
