Gukumatz, kukulcan, quetzalcoatl One man, with the many faces One man, with the many names Quetzalcoatl a Feathered Serpent of Ancient Mexico. Quetzalcoatl was a god of such importance and power that nearly no aspect of everyday life seemed to go untouched by him. Quetzalcoatl is related to many names and incarnations, and seems to play a prominent role in a pantheon of virtually all the other Mesoamerican deities. Quetzalcoatl himself goes by the names of Gukumatz, Nine Wind, and Kukulcan among others. Taken from http://weber.ucsd.edu/~anthclub/quetzalcoatl/quetzal.htm

Baby talk? You mean the stuff like 'Gugumatz, Kukulcan, Coetz....' or something like that. Those are three names of an ancient Aztec god. Sort of three godly figures synonymous to one man. At least that's what I know. I'm sure there are others who can explain better. Cheers....

Yesterday, Bob and Debra wrote: > Could someone tell me what language that baby talk is on One Man. > Apologies to those who speak that language. Baby talk? Hehehe...I'm sure you must be referring the line "Quetzalcoatl and Kukuklan...."? If you've ever seen pictures of an Aztec or Mayan indian dressed up like a snake with feathers, one of their gods, for a ceremonial dance? That's the guy being referred to in the song: the Aztecs called him Quetzalcoatl, and the Mayans called him Kukuklan. > And what is the story behind Pamela?? Insert your own joke here.... ;o) I think "Pamela" is just Mark's take on superficial people. Pamela, of course, being the iconic Pamela Anderson [Lee]. Don Z

5. Baby talk keep talkin' baby talk ...

Bob and/or Debra wrote: "Could someone tell me what language that baby talk is on One Man." Baby talk - I love it! I'm assuming that'd be due to the bit that sounds like "goo goo" then. Laugh? I nearly did. In all seriousity (my word) - it's been raised before and I recall one of our more scholarly Digestives explaining what it's all about - one man, two faces and all that. So by the time this gets to the digest, I'm sure you'll have your explanation. Baby talk - you're killin' me!

Hey, I'm listening to some absolutely fantastic music on the SoundClick site via the Y-Chromo Boyz site. Can anyone tell me how I can legally obtain the MP3's from the site or even buy some of their CD's? It is properly awesome stuff.. Julian http://www.soundclick.com/pro/?BandID=188077 P.S. I ain't associated with the band at all at all...
