    Popcorn

    in Feeling Chatty

    Following Cadet Stimpy I'll post my own random Youtube video for the week-end fun.


    I am quite fond of electronic music. Weirdly enough, I only discovered Popcorn last year. It was an incredible experience, like a flow of healing light pouring directly within my mind. When I feel sad, when I feel discouraged, I focus on this rhythm, and find strength anew.


    The video below is one of my favorite remixes. The video itself is a bit weird, but fun, although I usually don't watch videos on Youtube (I only use it for music).




    (For once I share a video with music I actually enjoy!)

    @Zerbique No, I didn't. Realistically, I'll probably never go to another concert.


    From my past -


    Most fun concert: B-52's - Club Casino, Hampton Beach, NH, US (booze was available)


    Most awesome concert: Frank Zappa & The Mother's of Invention - featuring Jean-Luc Ponty on electric violin - Berlin, Germany

    @Cadet Stimpy I've been to very few concerts in my life, I'm not sure I like the concept.


    One of these was a French singer named Thomas Fersen that is quite boring to listen to, but has fun lyrics, and it was from a period of my life where I was trying to repress my geek identity to fit my family's expectations (now I'm okay being basically a pariah). The guy ended up to be incredibly obnoxious, always saying he was tired and didn't want to play anymore. At some point people started to sing along, and he stopped, saying: "Hey, if you all know the song so well, why should I bother singing it?"

    @Zerbique Fersen sounds like a dick. 😄 If you even go to another concert, I hope it's more enjoyable. Have you ever heard of Jean-Luc Ponty? He's a Frenchman, with numerous musical awards. He's almost 80 now, so he probably doesn't tour anymore.

    I can't speak for everyone, but I appreciate/admire your 'geekness'. In the world today there's way too much emphasis on "appearances" and not enough on "character", etc. If it wasn't for people like you, we wouldn't even have electricity, much less a zillion other things that make our much lives easier. Shit, I'm such a baby, I have withdrawal symptoms if the Internet goes down. 😄 I love technology (which was brought to us by Geeks)!


    Some of my favorite Geeks (in no particular order):


    1) Leonardo da Vinci

    2) Mark Rober

    3) The Mythbusters

    4) Zerbique


    P.S. If everyone had been no smarter than me, we'd probably still be workin' on the wheel. 😄

    Since you like 'electronic music', Z, you may wanna check-out Kraftwerk, if you're not already familiar with them. Here's a sample for ya. They formed in 1969 (a little before your time (I was 18) 😄), and were around for decades (until recently, I think). I'd be surprised if JW didn't have a little of their music, but if not, he surely knows of them.


    P.S. At 1'57" into the 'sample' Video, this is mentioned, sorta. 🙂


    P.S. #2 Bonus Video that's very loosely related to the Sample Video. FWIW, it was Posted yesterday (30 Oct) and already has over 466,000 Views (as of this writing).
