Re: Conlangs in music (was Re: Jon Anderson a conlanger?)

There's a very large section of Kobaian on the Magma album (hold on...I'll
just have a look...) "1001° Centigrades"
by Christian Vander with a parallel French text. At the bottom it says (in
French) "Poem that I dreamed on the night of July 8-9 1970"
and it looks like a fairly standard European-type lang.
Examples:
da = "le,la" = the
dusz = "ton,ta,tes" = thy (also used for the object pronoun "te")
ek = que, so metathesised

Most of the time, there's a word-to-word equality from Kobaian to French,
and quite honestly I don't think that much time was given
to it as an actual language, which is a shame. If anyone wants to see the
whole thing, just drop me a line personally.

Mele Kalikimaka a tous,
