in reply to Lydia Vvinters • • •Now that was a challenge. I'm not sure what "funky" means in English, let alone Greek!
I'd go for: "συγκινητικός, στοιχειωμένος κατάλογος τραγουδιών"
Never used a prognosticon, but you've set me thinking whether the Phaestos Disc was of that nature...🤔
Being terminally bewildered and regularly caffeinated, I recommend that combination.
