Grab some lyrics, pipe them through Babelfish into one language, then back into the original language, and see how badly destroyed they got.

I'll kick off - name this tune!

In not contently to be with you in the time of day,
Girl who would like to be I with you all the time,
Which are only times as I by your lateral,
Girl feel good I with you all the time,
All day and everything would like to be the night.

Its kinda pointless to do this if you change all the lyrics, if you change the lyrics then obviously its not the same song anymore, I hate to say it, but I don't see name that tune working out as well as the other name games.

Even if you kept the same lyrics, then it would be more of a nuisance to just go into google and copy the lyrics and then say the name of that song, even that ruins the purpose of a game, because it changes the game into more of a chore to look them up rather than be something fun.

Just my take on it at least.

Rofl, great idea, but i really dont know what the HELL that song is ^^

This is the first few lines of a-ha, Living Daylights:

Hey driver, where we going, i swear my nerves are showing, suck my hopes up way too high, livings in the way we die! Comes the morning and the headlights fade away, hundred thousand people.....

Then i translated it to russian, then back into english, this was the result:

Hey the driver, we go, I pledged my nerve demonstrated, we suck my hope upward along the road too altitude are, is livings in the road, which we we dies! Morning comes and the headlight withers, 1.001 million individual.... .

is it generic boy band - generic love song ?

I think you may have missed the point a bit. The song gets mangled, but may still be recognisable if you know it, which is why I picked a well-known song.

That would be a lame game. This one requires you to actually know stuff.

Nah it's a generic love song (-ish!) by an English rock band from the '60s.

All Day and All Night by the Kinks!!

See? It's not that hard if you know it, unless the song has lots of weird words in it of course, then it gets totally fubar.

Hooray!

Here's mine:
A small bit gives little your love to me,
gives a small bit I little my love gives to you,
will give there this way much which we must share,
send smile and show you care.

Great idea for a game , but i think the clue was needed! Just a little push in the right direction maybe!

Ah, easy! Supertramp - Give a Little Bit

Okay... This one's even difficult to form into sentences!

This city is not coming like a city that of the ghost,
All the randelli have been low closed,
This place is coming like the bands of the city of the ghost will not too much play,
Combat on the dance pavement.

Probably quite easy...

It is some thing of unforeseeable,
But to the fine ones it is of right,
I hope that you have had the period of your life.

Your turn then

bit of a change of pace by starting with properly translated lyrics and translating them back to english (i hope this is not a dead giveaway with this tip)

Humans, a goal,
and an instruction.
A heart, a spirit,
only one solution.
Burning the glow.
A God, an example.
