Vedi sotto Explanation: Literally "Of Bowling Pins and Ice-Creams". I'm not aware of any musical groups with such names... Are you sure you typed it in correctly? Dubiously, Floriana |

"birilli" can also be translated as "ninepins" or "skittles," Explanation: although these two terms are used more often in England than in North America. "Of Ninepins and Ice Cream" is how I'd translate the title, because of the pleasant assonance (repetition of the long vowel sound "i") in "nine" and "ice." Last, "ice cream" is usually invariant in English, except in the very narrow world of makers and manufacturers, so for general consumption you can leave off the "s". |
