Cultural Embarrassement
Filed Under Fun Stuff, Video | 2 Comments
One of the posts that I go back to once in a while is Night of Fire by the Hinoi Team because I enjoy it every time all over again. I will forever connect this clip with Flemming’s comment “I want to be the guy in the underwear.”
I mean, I enjoy that video immensely but I had the thought that maybe not everybody feels the same. So I checked with a friend who is strongly Japan-oriented and he confirmed that this could be considered ‘slightly’ embarrassing. When he later told me about a neighbor who had a collection of something like ‘Heino‘ or Tony Marshall recordings I suddenly could feel his pain because I felt the same.
And today it happened – I ran into the “Deutsche Schlagerparade” (the German top-hits) which we actually voluntarily watched as teens. I must be a masochist, but I have to share this.

Mein Gott, Walter!!!
The saddest part is that my better half (from Brazil) didn’t notice any difference to the program she saw 2 weeks ago in Germany, except for the haircuts…
Readed…
As a rule we disbelieve all the facts and theories for which we have no use…
