In this section, before I sing the song, I speak some nonsense as a background to it.

 This time Huliganov shows the letter group BPHXCY where the usage in Russian follows that of Greek, the letter shapes in this group appear in Latin script but with different values.
 
 The professor also warns people of the necessity to roll their ‘r’s. He finishes off with one of his all time favorite folk songs “All around my hat” as well as a rather ribald joke.

 This is actually a one off so far – the only film with Arthur Pettycommon in. I have had requests to develop this character and I’m sure that will happen in due course.
 
 The song “Somewhere over the rainbow” of course comes from the Wizard of Oz film – or at least that’s what made it famous. The film is also famous for transitioning between a black and white opening and colour, and that’s also being spoofed with the colour changes here in this film. Had I had the technology then that I do not, I could have even superimposed a whirlwind onto it!

 Sproey von Weytzentrenner returns putting the world to rights, slating the advertising going on in YouTube while plugging Lomza beer, expaining why Schroeder belongs in prison and that governments should construct huge batteries to store the power from lightning.
 
 Afterwards, von Weytzentrenner has a treat in store – the German Eurovision winner (the only one until Lena came along in 2010) with “Ein Bisschen Frieden” – but this is the yodelled version!

Pierre Delauney’s tribute to the Italian team


Production date: July 2006
Playout date: 9/7/2006
Camera: Fuji Finepix
Camera: Logitech webcam
Post Production: Small amount of WMM
Location: Living room at home
Soundtrack: Sang “Non ti scordar di me” by Gigli
Languages used: Italian
Animals featured: None

Zey seenk eet’s all over? Eet eez now! Pierre’s back for his second video, saying what he thinks about Zidane’s “final bow”, and presenting the song “Non ti scordar di me” by Gigli, popularised at the world cup twenty years ago by the Three Tenors.

Now obviously Pavarotti sings this far better than I do, he may have been unwell at the last world cup, and as you will know, his sad demise came not long after.

The maestro sadly missed

 

Recently the four yearly event of the world cup came round again – amazing how time flies. The viewer figures showed the second five hundred views on this happen within a couple of months, and since then it’s plateaued off and had only a handful of views in two years.

Thomas P Jameson III sings a medley of patriotic songs

Location: Home desk, evening

This wasn’t popular and I don’t really like it either, nevertheless, I haven’t – rightly or wrongly – binned it yet. At least I have the guts to let the crappier ones stand out there for inspection! Quite a few folk got offended by their patriotic songs being sung frivolously. To these, I can only say, grow the hell up.
