WELCOME TO MALAYSIA BY ROSALINDA

“Good taste and frugality are the enemies of creativity” ~ Picasso

Welcome to Malaysia, ladies gentleman, how do you do? I am very glad and happy to c u, wat can I do for u, welcom to Malaysia... (???) 

...can someone please transcribe the rest of this for UGLY MALAYSIANA? I personally think this is humorous (edit: and amazing) but I have a feeling the artiste Rosalinda did not meant it to be a 'fuck you high brow art, this is anti-goodtaste' like what Björk did in the mid-80s, releasing records under the label "Bad Taste".

Actually to many an aspiring hipster, the above video and crazy lyrics may prove to be inspiring. No need to take yourself so srsly plz kan?

  2. Dear Bruce,

    I told my friend (who coincidentally has the same birthday as me) that I "sort of love this video" and linked the above music video to him, to which his reply was: "eeek". I'm not sure if his response is directed to me or to the esteemed artiste Rosalinda. He has snotty taste.

    I'm glad you think she is a "FUCKING legend" because I love this sort of low-brow art, and for that I thank you for your invaluable comment and feedback.
