...memory, vindicates the rants of all who turn on the radio and complain that they can't understand a word that's being sung. Asereje is mostly gibberish. The title doesn't mean anything. The comprehensible parts of the lyrics tell the story of Diego, a young gypsy with Rastafarian leanings who likes clothes, dancing and music. But look at the chorus: "Asereje ja de je be jebe tu de jebere sebiunouva majabi an de bugui an de buididipi." This isn't Spanish. This is not even Spanglish, as the export version claims to be.

...band member was an elderly man who dressed like some of my Grandpa's card game buddies, and looked like he belonged driving a tractor instead of laying down a ska line on the trombone.
