Here is how Wikipedia describes this song:

Human” is a song by British electronic music duo Goldfrapp.

The song was written by the group with Startled Insects‘ Tim Norfolk and Bob Locke and produced by Alison Goldfrapp and Will Gregory for the duo’s debut album Felt Mountain (2000).

“Human” is the only track on Felt Mountain with additional songwriters.

It was released as the album’s third single on 26 February 2001 and reached number 87 on the UK Singles Chart.

The song was sampled by American rapper Kanye West for his track “Freestyle 4”.

It was also used in the closing credits of the second season of the French spy show The Bureau.

“Human” received generally positive reviews from pop music critics.

Flak Magazine reviewer Eric Wittmershaus called the song a “surprisingly-daring-yet-easy-to-listen-to genre-bender” that “is easily the disc’s standout track.”[2]

Sacha Esterson of Musicomh.com described the track as “middle eastern-influenced upbeat gem” that is “particularly fantastic.”[3]

NME wrote that “Human” “sounds like Shirley Bassey, but with none of the dance nous the Welsh warbler brought to her collaboration with the Propellerheads.”[4]

T’chut… 😉

They fall
From your mouth
Propelled by your belly
And your tongue
I shiver when you shake
And fold into jelly
I think I loved you more than me

Are you human
Or a dud
Are you human
Or d’you make it up

My baby cherry slipped
Pass me through your fingertips
Throw me down like an old rag
I’m not standing
Don’t look back

Are you human
Or a dud
Are you human
Or d’you make it up

Are you human
Or a dud
Are you human
Or d’you make it up

They went searching
For your body
They went looking but there’s nobody
Who smells like you
Who looks like you
You’re not human…too

Are you human
Or a dud
Are you human
Or d’you make it up

Are you human
Or a dud
Are you human
Or d’you make it up

DameLove (Letra)

I won’t tell you twice, amor
Feeling always come and go
Si lo tienes, dámelo.
Damelove, damelove x2

Esperando tanto tiempo
para ser más que amigos no miento
Sentado en la sala contigo
Buscando el momento preciso

Tan cerca pero tan lejos
Ya quiero rozar tu cuerpo
Tu cara contra mi pecho
El humo flotando denso

I won’t tell you twice, amor
Feeling always come and go
Si lo tienes, dámelo.
Damelove, damelove x2

There’s something about you, something
There’s something x2

Who are you? Why are you me making me feel like I’m walking on clouds?
I’ve been feeling so alone, and I know that I want you around

Tan cerca pero tan lejos
Poco a poco me acerco
Mi mano contra tu pecho
El humo nublando el cielo

I won’t tell you twice, amor
Feeling always come and go
Si lo tienes, dámelo.
Damelove, damelove x2

There’s something about you, something
There’s something x2

(so… yeah, you can come thru…. I’m in the mood for some jack in the box…podemos fumar. Or maybe we can watch the simpsons or whatever…)

Dreams

Tika Tika (Tikka Tikka)

This dream possibly took place inside a hotel room with two beds, I was somehow watching & remotely taking part in what was possibly a Spanish talk show / reality TV show that was possibly called Tika Tika or Tikka Tikka, and I was using two mobile phones to watch the show & communicate with the hosts of the show.

The end of the opening credits theme song, probably ending with someone saying Tika Tika (Tikka Tikka), and the main host was possibly a Spanish woman with light-color skin with long black or dark hair who I assumed to be named Tika (Tikka).

A British Man’s Text Art Show / Art Exhibit / Art Piece?

I possibly was not in this dream, I am not sure, this dream involved a British man with light-color skin who was probably preparing an art show and / or art exhibit and / or art piece / work of art.

One of the names of it or the placeholder name for it was a little long & unusual, and he talked with another British man about it.

What Makes A Language… A Language? – Martin Hilpert

What Makes A Language… A Language? – Martin Hilpert

What is it?

The YouTube video What Makes A Language… A Language? – Martin Hilpert by the YouTube channel TED-Ed, here is the description for this video:

Dig into the distinction between a language and a dialect, and uncover the history of standardized languages.

Outside of China, Mandarin, and Cantonese are often referred to as Chinese dialects, despite being even more dissimilar than Spanish and Italian.

On the other hand, speakers of Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish, which are three distinct languages, can usually communicate with each other in their native tongues.

So, when is speech considered a dialect versus a language? Martin Hilpert investigates.
