October 9[edit]

Original Norwegian Lyrics[edit]

Could somebody please give the original lyrics for the Arrangement by Bjarne Slogedal called "Herre Jesus gi meg nade". I believe it is a folk tune for Oyslebo, Norway. 41.244.206.207 06:46, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

For research purposes, it's Herre Jesus gi meg nåde. Musikkrom.wikispaces has the text. ---Sluzzelin talk 11:14, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Rondellus translated some Black Sabbath songs into Latin, if that counts. Adam Bishop 07:59, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Cat Stevens sang a verse in Latin in one of his songs, maybe O Caritas. -- JackofOz 09:13, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
See also List of songs with Latin lyrics. ---Sluzzelin talk 11:02, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Carmina Burana. Not exactly rock or pop but perhaps worth a mention as O Fortuna is well known and I am not sure what you need the information for. Lanfear's Bane 11:59, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Tristania's song Wormwood from the World of Glass album uses the lyrics of one of Orff's song in the original latin. C mon 08:01, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Tyrannosaurus_rex, Rex, get it? Beekone 15:17, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Argos, and not just the shopping store with the laminated catalogue (laminated to catch the tears of joy over all the beautiful things. Thanks BB). EVE Online has ships named Fenrir and Cerberus. To be honest it could be so many things. I still like my Indiana Jones answer however. Lanfear's Bane 15:29, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
How about the canine tooth? --Joelmills 18:04, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
