YOU TUBE OF THE DAY--THE GOOD, THE BAD, THE UGLEE

She never made or completed one lucid thought.....

This video made me feel a whole lot better about my life.

A friend (actually, my former boss in the engineering department who was the first station manager at the 'new' South Pole station in 1976) just sent me a link to this video...he's 1/4 Slovenian, and someone had hipped him to this choir's performance of Toto's 'Africa':

They are a very cool group...I went to youtube looking for more clips, and there are quite a few. Here are two I liked...these folks are very good at singing in languages other than their own:



The timing of finding out about this group is interesting, because Merisa and I were looking for clips of Eastern Euro brass bands just the other night (research for our Boba Fett and the Americans project), and we stumbled upon these guys:

Even though I was never a big fan of Queen, and this song in particular sort of drove me nuts, the way these guys handle it is hilarious and cool. Pretty amazing voices for a bunch of horn players...the lead guy totally slays me...

[wayang]

This one never fails to slay me...

Great stuff Dane. Wow! It was all good. Now I see what Schultz (Hogans Heroes) did when he was not working on the series set.

Dane, great stuff. Slovenian Africa - goosebumps. Brass Rhapsody - excellent. Always loved both songs. Thanks.

My sis-in-law had emailed a link to just the rain part of Africa, so I sent the link to the whole song to her in return.

There's nothing like seeing a tuba player dancing around on stage... That was hilarious as well as totally awesome!

I would like to submit this short video from a San Francisco band representing, the good the bad and the ugly. The guitarist is particularly disturbing.

Uhh, what can I say... That's just weird...

[jimk]

Rather reminds me of "The Monster Mash." Only Monster Mash was funnier. This was just kind of campy, and cute.

I like everything they do...they're like Eraserhead in a midnight showing at the Nuart after eating a teaspoonful of morning glory seeds properly processed in a coffee grinder...

...except maybe quirkier...

...anyway, how about Literal Videos?







This one's got a FG Rick 330--it's SOOO '80s!!!



Finally, the Boys themselves:
