Yes, she has always struggled with overweight problems. Some people will never be thin, no matter how hard they try. I'm glad thad she has learnt to live with it.

The HU - Yuve Yuve Yu

The 90s are my Music decade. 93, 94, 95 were all years, in which Eurodance was very popular in Germany. A weird but funny song I recovered yesterday.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QL7-yqFrkWY

To explain for the non-german community. Peter Steiner was a Advertising Actor and he made a very popular advertidsement for a big german chocolate Company. The advertisement became Cult and in the song he is only repeating what he is saying in the advertisement.

For those who like it more hard i can recommend this song from a popular Trance / Happy Hardcore / Hardcore Duo in the 90s

talking about 90s, just for fun - now and never again

https://youtu.be/6M6samPEMpM

I never cared about music style, but as you mentioned era it's probably one of my fav videos - not songs - from the time..... don't know why but miss late XIX century so much, cylinder hats, frocks and male mantle. Not to mention vampires, female look in the eyes, atmosphere and all

ONE Act 2

liked this one also

https://youtu.be/gWOFtixfies

my life in US in short (that's why they don't not let me in))

btw thanks Para, anything about vampires alright to me, after all they are speciality here present since Celts and Sarmatians... but English properly connected them with Romano-Hungarians probably biggest bloodsuckers in region ignoring nice people............ joking

first of all, sorry for non-musical post (enjoy my addition above, not big tuber myself) here but as sometimes very detail pedant, must say that i am sometimes very amused (as amateur after all) by the way some linguistic theories are proposed and considered generally... in Europe at all - maybe in other places respectively - there are so many words with similar and dual/multiple roots and forms in different etno-groups so there is a lot of guessing and (personally) funny-to-wrong connections. Why am I so interested, well one of simpliest examples is own nation/tribe name - both as exonym and endonym - very generic sounding and present in at least three historical "civilizations" - Persian, Greek-Latin, Slavic... producing many funny guesses through years down to Czechoslovak scholar's "the ones who slurp loudly" etc 110% Iranic root but changes little, except it's fun to trace (and to poke Greeks)

anyway, back to Vampires and why I say this at first place after looking at some articles, point is that situation is similar and i'm afraid linguistics and word roots will not give proper answer ) historical retrospective much better solution (I can say for sure that practice of opening graves and stabbing hearts was present in mid XIV century at least by sources) And why i mentioned Celts as from Greeks and Romans there are stories "describing" those living here as with "blood drinking" habit, maybe i just give more importance to their mythology than it's historically true (helmet with horns etc). Hope i didn't bore

2nd installment of our "Meet your next favorite band" series - The Schizophonics!



Musically they can be best described as a garage rock band similar to MC5, Iggy and the Stooges and the like from the late 1960's / early 1970's era but what sets them apart is the insane on-stage antics of their frontman who dances, jumps, runs around the stage and does backflips and splits in the style of James Brown all the while singing and playing guitar, if not exactly technically perfectly but at least coherently, without losing a beat. You must see it to believe it!

North Mississippi Allstars - brothers Luther and Cody Dickinson who both play multiple instruments make up the core of this band, but at times the fluid lineup can have as much as 8 members many of which are well regarded musicians in their own right. They play blues of all kinds - from the very basic early forms (Robert Johnson, Mississippi Fred McDowell, Muddy Waters etc) to elaborate 1970's electric style (Jimi Hendrix, Allman Brothers etc) to modern punk infused variety (Blues Explosion, White Stripes, The Black Keys etc) and their live shows routinely last over 3 hrs.

Radoye is some musical expert, or musician himself it's so obvious ;

i'm more of fun loving and talkative, looking for cultural anecdotes & stereotypes... but today after such fiesta is day of siesta :zzz

it's interesting that old panzer series never made big boom in Mexico with population of the size, unlike other Spanish speaking countries. That's also cultural thing... if some Mexican wanders around though, it's a funny song isn't it, no bad feelings (remember 1986) As for Spain we all know Spanish mentality "work, work & work" ) ..... today no music from me until inspired to do.

Heh, not a musician and hardly an expert - i just listen to a lot of music and go see a lot of shows. I don't have kids so i can allow myself not to act 100% of time as a responsible adult while on the other hand my daily job takes so much out of me that if i didn't let go every once in a while i would blow my brains out long time ago. Music literally keeps me sane and on average i go see upwards of 20 live concerts each year, it's the fuel that keeps me going.

Finally getting out of the pagan trance Heilung put me in a few weeks ago in Utrecht. Going back to some punk/post-punk from where I grew up in the dark eighties.

I also searched for lost musical memories of the eighties this week. I have found a band that I have not heard for many years - Fischer Z.

A small selection from her 1981 album "Red Skies Over Paradise"

Berlin
Battalions of Strangers
In England
Marliese (extended version)
and last year at Wacken Open Air (WOA 2018) So Long (from the 1980 album "Going Deaf for a Living")

HotKid:



Self-described as "garage pop", HotKid is the brainchild of Shiloh Harrison from Cambridge, ON. The band has passed through several iterations with different members and instrument lineups now to settle on Shiloh on vocals and guitar, Andrew DeVillers on bass and a rhythm machine in place of drums.

Mixing surf-rock with a particular horror B-movie twist with Eastern European pop music of the 1960's and a lot of weird sampled electronic sounds they create a pretty unique sound. Check them out if you get a chance!
