Description: When the music goes around in circles and we are lacking in inspiration, there is always the solution to make something new with old people. Three infallible recipes (well, not always!): 1) translate foreign titles that have already proven themselves ("If it worked there, it must work here"), 2) refresh tubes of the past ("the public has forgotten it, it will believe that it is new ") and 3) outright plunder the cultural heritage, whether or not it has fallen into the public domain. It goes or it breaks! From the simple, rigorous and problem-free translation to the pure and simple flight of words and music, our book reviews several thousand songs which, since the invention of the disc, have traveled in space and time, the more often without a hitch ---- Publisher's presentation.
