The song by Neena, "99 Luftballoons", is in German (I believe, certainly
not in English), and this may explain why you can't understand what she's
saying.  The ending of that song has got to be the Yes-iest thing to come
out in ten years, and I'm not just talking about the steel guitar slide.
Anyone else out there have that same reaction to the song?
(Speaking of Yes ripoffs, does anyone out there remember a band called
Druid?  Their drummer went on to play for Gary Numan. It seems that "Loner
of an Only Heart" has precipitated a mini-revival of this whole style.)
