youtube: chinese stuff & misc; meme

[amezri]

Putzing around on YouTube and found some random clips from CCTV (like.. Chinese MTV) and other Chinese clips.

+ S.H.E. - Bu Xiang Zhang Da - cool video with a dark fairy tale/myth theme
+ S.H.E- Yue Gui Nu Shen - I think the video is based on the myth of Apollo and Daphne.
+ Ella of S.H.E. covering It's My Life
+ video for "Tong Hwa" by Wang Kwong Liang. Oh teh angst.
+ music vid: S.H.E. - Tong Kuai
+ Angela Zhang - Aurora. Cool music vid; nice song.
+ music video: Pan Wei Bo - Bu De Bu Ai
+ Gackt performing 12gatsu no love song in Chinese live, as well as an interview in Japanese and a performance of Last Song. Yeah. He's pretty and I like his voice.
+ BoA's music vid for "ID; Peace B" It.. kind of reminds me of a Target ad.
+ S.H.E. vid for Bu Zhuo Ni De Peng You - all three like the same guy, but they find out he's gay. I can relate :-P
+ opening sequence for Taiwanese drama Chinese Paladin. Looks kinda cool.
+ Chinese Paladin fanvid
+ music video for A Chinese Tall Story starring Nicholes Tse and Charlene Choi
+ Gackt speaking Chinese with Vivian Hsu
+ Jolin performing at CCTV
+ China Disabled People's Performing Art Troupe's Thousand-handed Goddess of Mercy dance
+ Dan Radcliffe & Rupert Grint's names in Chinese
+ Dan Radcliffe and Emma Watson speaking in Chinese about movie piracy. Heh. Dan's Chinese is way better.
+ Nicholas Tse wishing everyone a happy new year and talking about what he's up to
+ Nic Tse wishing people a Happy New Year from his production offices(?). With his kids... pet tortoises. And then the interviewer is trying to get info about Nic out of the tortoise and... Nic is answering the questions as the tortoise. *facepalm*

Erm. Okay. I need to stop now. A real entry will be posted eventually.

A little something from shoemaster: the evolution of dance

And via rivier: Supersoaker Oozinator. This commercial is so wrong. Someone from marketing is going to get fired.

shingkhor tagged me to do the weird things/bad habits meme

1. I start a lot of projects but rarely finish them.

2. I buy DVDs mostly on impulse. Sometimes when I get them home, I realise I already own them. It's happened with CDs too.

3. The first thing I do when I stumble out of bed in the morning is go to my computer and check my email.

4. I use tweezers instead of a razor.

5. When I'm sitting in front of my computer, I check my e-mail compulsively; like every two or three minutes.

I am tagging whoever wants to do this. *shrug*

Re: 3. I uh, have my laptop on the bed with me. So I don't actually have to stumble out of bed to get online in the mornings.

Ha! You win.

Thanks for the clip links. :) I've recently um... found out about Gackt (or at least, paid attention and started to secretly fangirl rather than just fangirl from a distance?) so any clips of him are very good. ;)

You're welcome :) Next time I go on a youtube scavenger hunt, I'll look for some Gackt clips for you *g*

cool links, thanks for sharing!

when searching for jay chou tunes (influence per cousin), i came across SHE and jolin. didn't see the vids though. so in my newfound search for more "international" music, i wandered to my brother's cd collection. he's been a fan of gackt and l'arc en ciel for some time (there's supposed to be a show in the states sometime this summer?) so i'll be sure to link him to the utube :)

Any time :)

I haven't actually heard much of Gackt's music, but I was a a big fan of L'arc. I think I heard about the show this summer, but have no idea on the details.
