Purified water is water that has been mechanically filtered or processed to remove impurities and make it suitable for use. Distilled water has been the most common form of purified water, but, in recent years, water is more frequently purified by other processes including capacitive deionization, reverse osmosis, carbon filtering, microfiltration, ultrafiltration, ultraviolet oxidation, or electrodeionization. Combinations of a number of these processes have come into use to produce water of such high purity that its trace contaminants are measured in parts per billion (ppb) or parts per trillion (ppt). Purified water has many uses, largely in the production of medications, in science and engineering laboratories and industries, and is produced in a range of purities. It can be produced on site for immediate use or purchased in containers. Purified water in colloquial English can also refer to water which has been treated ("rendered potable") to neutralize, but not necessarily remove contaminants considered harmful to humans or animals.

Aqua is a Danish eurodance group, best known for their 1997 breakthrough single "Barbie Girl". The group formed in 1989 and achieved huge success around the globe in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The group released three albums: Aquarium in 1997, Aquarius in 2000 and Megalomania in 2011. The group sold an estimated 33 million albums and singles, making them the most successful Danish band ever.
In their prime, Aqua's singles managed to chart top ten in a number of countries where European pop acts would not normally succeed, including the United States, Canada, Australia, and Japan. The group managed to top the UK Singles Chart with their first three singles. The group also caused controversy with the double entendres in their "Barbie Girl" single, with the Barbie doll makers Mattel filing a lawsuit against the group. The lawsuit was finally dismissed by a judge in 2002, who ruled "The parties are advised to chill."
The band's members are vocalists Lene Nystrøm and René Dif, keyboardist Søren Rasted, and guitarist Claus Norreen. During their split, Nystrøm, Dif and Rasted all achieved solo chart success, and Norreen continued in the music industry remixing other artists' material.
Patent Ochsner is one of Switzerland's best-known rock bands, all of whose studio albums but one have topped the Swiss charts. Hailing from Bern, they perform songs in Swiss German.
Patent Ochsner was formed in Bern in 1990 by singer Büne Huber and four other musicians. The lineup would change several times during the years. The band got their name from a ubiquitous type of Swiss dustbin and trash containers, manufactured by J. Ochsner AG and stamped with "Patent Ochsner".
In 1991, they released their debut "Schlachtplatte" (butcher plate; a traditional dish containing different types of meat and sausages). As the song "Bälpmoos" (about Belpmoos, Bern's regional airport) got huge radio airplay on Swiss radio stations they became quite famous in Switzerland. The ballad "Scharlachrot" (Scarlet) would increase their popularity.

Tääterättättäää....titiii...
Wenn der rote Silbermond
In den Bergen versinkt
Und die dicke Monika
Dich zum Rendevouz zwingt,
Schenk' im prallen Sonnenschein
Noch ein paar Tequilla ein
Und du wirst seh'n
Das wird doch noch ganz schön!
Verliebte Fischer zieh'n mit den Booten
die Berge hinauf
Grüß' mir die Gemse, den Adler, den Rotbarsch,
Bergmann Glück auf!
Und wenn der Sommer, die Träume, das Glück und
Die Rosen vergeh'n,
Klingt die Suzuki am Hafen
Teilweise doppelt so schön.
Und die blonde Hildegard
Manche Träne vergießt,
Weil der wilde Mario
Ihr den Urlaub vermiest
Doch die schöne Sommernacht
Ist nicht nur für zwei gemacht
Wenn die Sangria am Palmenstrand fließt.
Verliebte Fischer zieh'n mit den Booten
die Berge hinauf
Grüß' mir die Gemse, den Adler, den Rotbarsch,
Bergmann Glück auf!
Und wenn dann Liebe und Palmen und Hoffnung
Und Mondschein vergeh'n
Klingt die Suzuki am Stadtrand
Im Großen und Ganzen noch schön.
Liebling, Du weißt:
Das hier ist nichts für schwache Nerven,
doch eines Tages kehrst Du nach Bielefeld zurück,
und dann wirst Du diesen Brüdern vom Reisebüro
aber mal gehörig den Marsch blasen.
Verliebte Fischer zieh'n mit den Booten
die Berge hinauf
Grüß' mir die Gemse, den Adler, den Rotbarsch,
Bergmann Glück auf!
Und wenn dann Glück und Vertrauen und
Sehnsucht und alles vergeh'n
Klingt die Suzuki am Bahnhof
Doch alles in allem noch schön.
Verliebte Fischer zieh'n mit den Booten
die Berge hinauf
Grüß' mir die Gemse, den Adler, den Rotbarsch,
Bergmann Glück auf!
Und wenn auch Wälder und Wiesen und Felder
Und Dörfer vergeh'n,
Klingt unter'm Strich die Suzuki im Bergwerk
Trotz allem noch schön.
Klingt unter'm Strich die Suzuki im Bergwerk
Teilweise noch schön.
Bergmann Glück auf.
