I think you're in the minority here, Militant. There wasn't really a reason to jump on the person who made the joke in the first place. Do you take Smurf jokes personally? It isn't like it was an offensive joke or anything. If you don't like it, you could just ignore it. I found it funny. Others found it funny.

I do take them personally. I'm a member of the Smurf Liberation Front.

And my ten year old nephew comes up with better jokes than that. But hey, I'm not the comedy police.

Militant, did you even "get" the joke? Be honest. If one never heard the leak of "Cosmic Day" (I have) one might be forgiven for making a joke that the the lyric "Tra la la la tra la la la..." looks like it could be sung to the tune of the Smurf theme. Did you think the poster was calling Prince a Smurf or something? Anywayz....I thought it was funny too. Good one, Pentacle. It may be lowbrow humor but it's humor. It made me chuckle.

Oh yeah? Well I speak fluent native Schtroumpf. For instance :

Je schtroumpf que Schtroumpfic Day est la plus schtroumpf des chansons de Schtrounpfoline.

I got it, I just didn't find it funny. We're talking about the same guy who wrote "La La La, He He He", so it's not as if lyrics like that are unique to Cosmic Day, right?

Oh yeah? Well I speak fluent native Schtroumpf. For instance :



Je schtroumpf que Schtroumpfic Day est la plus schtroumpf des chansons de Schtrounpfoline.




I translated that: POOM POOM POOM POOM POOM POOM POOM POOM POOM POOM POOM POOM

What r the lyrics to the second verse? I haven't had the privilege sad.

Walking alone in the dark (alone)
I see nothing you see (I see)

Could it be (?) in a park (in a park)
We're flying in the, in the deep sea

I wish you'd hold my hand
Then everything, it could be
There's nothing strange, we're not deranged

We only want every day

To be, oh to be, a cosmic day!
Tra la la la, tra la la la, tra la la la la la!

Close...

Walking alone in the dark (alone)
I see nothing you see (I see)

I could be in a park (in a park)
Or flying in the, in the deep sea

I wish you'd hold my hand
Then everything, it could be
There's nothing strange, we're not deranged

We only want every day

To be, oh to be, a cosmic day!
Tra la la la, tra la la la, tra la la la la la!

Walking alone in the dark, I see nothing u see
I can be in a park, or flying in the…in the deep sea
I wish u’d hold my hand; then everything could b
There’s nothing strange, we’re not deranged
We only want everyday 2 b a Cosmic Day

Couldn't care less. Biggest letdown ever from the mind-blowing descriptions to the lacklustre clips we've heard. It's a rip off of "What Is Life" by George Harrison but in a cartoon voice.

Your Schtoumpf sounds suspiciously like French with most of the words replaced with variants on Schtroumpf... hmmm

I think you need to hear the full song before you completely judge it.

A good example is Adonis and Bathsheba, the real magic in that song comes in the last 3 minutes or so. I think when the full version came out it started to get far more praise.

Something like this is always going to struggle to live up to it's legend anyhow. I can see some people have a problem with the vocal. I remember when I first heard be taken aback by it, but I after a few listens I got over it, I just love the guitar tone on it.
