1) This should IMHO 'S-Kurve', because in the french lyrics it is
'virage en S' which means 'S turn' in english. the translator had
either a bad dictionary or got the of german 'Spiralkurve' wrong.
German 'Spirale' means the same as english 'spiral' is something
different.
2) one describes lamps which use iodine gas to produce light. They're
often used as car headlights. It also refer to the color of the
headlights of cars in France, which use headlights.
3) This is a road name. Europa 8
4) Could also be 'Oben Lichter', which means the same. I never figured
out, because Ivan's accent while speaking german doesn't give it
clearly. :-)
There are big to the french lyrics, many of the french
lines translate to the same words. At first these words seemed
quite meaningless to me, but IMHO they describe *great* the
and things you have in head, when you're driving at night.
