"Confessions" Time

Today's Confession: When I'm bored I sometimes go YouTube diving (a dangerous pass-time, but I live on the edge), which is how I recently discovered a fascination/appreciation for Korean pop. What can I say, I like dancing and strange hairstyles/costumes and trippy/cracky music videos, and K-pop is great for all three.

Take this for example:

My god, that hair in the first video. XD There is something so fascinating about Korean pop and J-pop. Their videos are amazing.

Okay, the bit about doing a porno was hilarious. XD I thought Backstreet Boys were bigger though?

And OH NOES JANIE! D: I don't want anything bad to happen to her!

I've never listened to an audio book before. What are they like?

XD I know right? It's MESMERIZING.

XD I don't actually know. I wasn't paying attention at the time. But I do know that Backstreet doesn't have an actual bass singer.

I don't either, but there's nothing I can do! DX

They're pretty much made or broken by the narrator. It's got to be someone whose voice you can stand to listen to for however long the story is and they have to read with SOME emotion or it'll just put me to sleep.

No shortage of entertainment, that's for sure. XD

You know, to be honest I've never noticed. How did you figure it out? Just by listening?

*sighs* I can't argue with that. Just assure me that Janie gives Dennis a good kick in the balls before he goes to hell for what he did to her.

Huh. Makes me wonder what it would be like if William Shatner were the narrator. XD

Indeed! XD

Pretty much.

Oh, rest assured she does.

XD That would be horrible and entertaining all at once.

Huh. Now I'm really curious. Off I go to do some comparisons!

Good. His ass needs to be kicked. Royally. With six inch stiletto heels.

Imagine if he were paired off with Adam West. xD

It's really only obvious in the a Capella stuff. I am a sucker for male vocal harmonies, especially sung a capella.

Indeed!

XD Oh dear! May that never, ever happen!

What's a capella?

But wouldn't it be epic to see just once?

A capella is without accompaniment (I think it actually translates to "in the manner of the church" or something), so just vocals with little or no instrumental accompaniment. And it's one of my favorite styles of music.

That it would. That it would.

Oh, like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrdf8dDeOKM Acapella is awesome!

The world would be shaken to the core.

Yes! XD And that's awesome!

Indeed. Best to not risk it.
