Hello Yello
Swiss popsters Yello have their moments. Of course, everyone knows “Oh Yeah”, the song made (in)famous by the movie “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off”.
But they offer so much more. Sure, being a product of the eighties, there’s a lot of nonsense in there too, but amongst the chaff, you’ll not only find wheat, you’ll find sparkling gemstones.
Otto di Catania is a perfectly cut example. One of the most beautiful pieces of music produced in the last 30 years.
Now, two questions:
1. What do the lyrics mean?
2. What are Yello doing now?
