SERIOUSLY, "I SMELL LIKE I SOUND?" The best thing about this article about Disney's plans to exploit the High School Musical phenomonon is not the fact that a full-scale London production opens June 30, or that HSM2 will soon be available for licensing to schools for production, but the remark by "a Hindi translator contacted by the New York Times" that "Pa Pa Pa Paye Yeh Dil," which is how Disney has elected to translate "Bop To The Top" into Hindi (and which apparently means "the heart is full of happiness"), is "sort of like a Duran Duran song. The words sound sexy, but mean nothing."
