And while we're on the subject...another favorite of mine is from their
translation of "Rebel Rebel":

"Hot trend, I love you so"

I guess they thought Bowie was a stockbroker!

Also, from the Bay City Rollers 'Wouldn't You Like It' album, they call
drummer Derek Longmuir's track "Delek's End Piece".

No, I'm not lying!
