Sarcasm.

Those are all foreign-language music video shows. Only the German program plays American stuff, AFAIK.

On Videorola last night, I saw a Spanish, country-western cover of "I Will Survive."

Here's why I posted this: Everyone here talks about how much they want to understand other cultures. This is your chance.

Responding to sarcasm with more sarcasm is just a vicious cycle. I may have started it, but this is pointless.

The FPP may be a little vague, but I thought you people were Internet geeks. You're supposed to enjoy finding out what links are, and then figuring out how to play the videos. It's like a squirrel cracking a nut. Then you feel like you found it yourself, and feel happy.

Just watch the videos. You'll like them. The people without broadband will have to suffer, though.

Of course the internet is better than MTV. You can actually find music videos on the internet.

Let me thank you for the links, son_of_minya, and in return be arrogant and suggest you follow your own advice by watching this (.asf format, 13.6 megabyte download) and this (you have a choice of Real or Windows Media format).

There's no horse cocks, but both videos are gay. Very gay. I'd be interested in hearing your reactions to both videos, because they tell two very different stories, but share the same 'culture', and exposing others to different cultures is your self-admitted purpose for posting this thread.

I take it back. You get no benefit of the doubt. You are intentionally trying to mess with me, and I am not going to humor you anymore.

So screw you and the horse cock you rode in on.
