Everything's groovy for me...

If you want Swedish, you should post it in the Swedish section.
Planer is a verb that means to be high, to be spaced out in this particular phrase. Plastic Bertrand sang this song back in the 70's.
You should have posted this in art/literary, not science!

thanks Ronat!
agree Charlie Bavington : ...altho Plastic B may no longer think it applies to him, reduced as he is to presenting the worst gameshow in history - so bad, it's rivetting, but only fit for broadcasting at 3 or 4 a.m. (becos of its quality, not 'adult content' or anything!)
