The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

In 1997 I recorded LBT IV, when it aired here. The thing is they aired the European Portuguese version, or standard version, which was never soled on VHS or DVD. I've managed to pass the video from the VHS, to a DVD and to my PC.

I intend to upload it to youtube as soon as it starts working, in the meanwhile I've uploaded it to my blog, here's the link:

It Takes All Sorts

It doesn't get any rarer than this. I prefer this version of the song to the original in english, it's natural that most of you guys don't understand the lyrics but I at least hope you like the voices as much as I do.

Very nice...I haven't seen a whole lot of non-English LBT songs. So far I've only come across "Eggs" in Finnish. This was nice to listen too, though! I did quite like this version.

Looks like we share the same opinion (=

I'll try to post Grandma's Lullaby, as soon as I have time.

You can say that because of my russian ears, but i like english version of that song much better than this one. It's too sharp. :wacko:
But the topic reminds me... When i saw LBT 4 with russian dubbing-in, i liked song "Who Need You" in russian language more then original version. :)

I liked hearing it in this other language, though I didn't understand it.  Though it was only brief Petrie's voice sounded deeper then the English version, to me at least.

Hmm... that is so weird, Portuguese is a lot smoother than other latin base languages. Oh well, can't please everyone =P
