Italian pop superstar Adriano Celentano recorded the infectious “Prisencolinensinainciusol” in 1972 and it became a big hit in Italy. In the past couple of years the video for the song has gone viral.

Sounding a bit like a parody of Bob Dylan, the lyrics in “Prisencolinensinainciusol” are gibberish. Centano explains:

[H]aving just recorded an album of songs that meant something, I wanted to do something that meant nothing.”

YouTube’s Buffalax sees the song differently than its composer and has translated the seemingly incoherent song into something slightly more coherent. Here is “Prisencolinensinainciusol” with subtitles.
