Zilch - Electric Cucumber

Not safe for work or children

Della Vega

Edit:

winning the guinness book speed record - this is just ridiculus

It was 70 years ago today...

"When I was about twelve, I used to think I must be a genius, but nobody's noticed. Either I'm a genius or I'm mad, which is it? "No," I said, "I can't be mad because nobody's put me away; therefore I'm a genius." Genius is a form of madness and we're all that way. But I used to be coy about it, like me guitar playing. But if there's such a thing as genius — I am one. And if there isn't, I don't care."

* John Lennon interview with Rolling Stone magazine (December 1970)


It's John Lennon's Birthday today.

如果的事 (Ru Guo De Shi)

here deal with this:


Translation Ru Guo De Shi (What If)
Angela Zhang feat. Fan Wei Qi

(Fan)I've thought about something
(Fan)It's not something bad
(Fan)Kept on persisting to myself
(Fan)The meaning of love
(Fan)Like the wind,blowing gently and strolls along without a reason
(Fan)There's no right and wrong in love
(Fan)Won't bother about time
(Fan)Telling us how difficult it would be if we're together

(Angela) I don't dare to verify
(Angela) 'Love you',these two words
(Angela) Not constraining myself
(Angela) Also not satirizing
(Angela) The others said that IÂ'm actually very ignorant
(Angela) This kind of love is very dissolute
(Angela) I'm very dissatisfied
(Angela) I'm still thinking about it

(Fan)If you can't control
(Fan)Thinking of me once every day
(Fan)You're honest because of me

(Angela) If you see the movie I love
(Angela) Listen to the CD I love
(Angela) If you can take me traveling with you

(Fan)If you've decided to follow your feelings
(Fan)Be brave for love once
(Fan)If you said that we have each other

(Angela) If you start to believe
(Angela) This kind of love
(Angela) If you can tell me what if

(together)I just want to you to tell me what if
(together) Then,I will go all the way to love you

and karaoke so you can sing along:

Eurovision Song Contest

Lena Meyer-Landrut won for Germany. Blah.
I choose Slovakian singer Kristína with her song Horehronie.



The dancers seem to have attended the Durmstrang wizarding school.

The Passing of a Legend

From Wikipedia-
Ronnie James Dio (born Ronald James Padavona; July 10, 1942 – May 16, 2010) was an American heavy metal vocalist and songwriter. He performed with Elf, Rainbow, Black Sabbath, Heaven & Hell, and his own band Dio. Other musical projects include the collective fundraiser Hear 'n Aid. He was widely hailed as one of the most powerful singers in heavy metal,[1] renowned for his consistently powerful voice and for popularizing the "devil's horns" hand gesture in metal culture. He was collaborating on a project with former Black Sabbath bandmates Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Vinny Appice, under the moniker Heaven & Hell, whose first and only studio album, The Devil You Know, was released on April 28, 2009.[2] On the morning of May 16, 2010, he died after a six-month battle with stomach cancer. He was 67 years old.

Carl Sagan - 'A Glorious Dawn' ft Stephen Hawking (Cosmos Remixed)

I love that it starts with Sagan saying "I'm not very good at singing songs".
Everyone who watched Cosmos back in the day will cry over this.
Sagan's son is quoted as saying his dad would have loved it. I agree.
