:sigh: no one's updating the cowboy bebop section of ff.net ...

I'm listening to "Du Hast" by Rammstein and once again it's freaking me out. I don't know why I find that song scary.

Because it is scary! It's just so insistent. And sinister. And other words with those letters in them.

'shaka, you listen to some WEIRD music. & ;-)

(Rammstein is a bit...special around here, but it's this HUGE export success, I know.

No wonder you find it scary, "Du hast" means, of course, "you have" but also-- and especially the way they pronounce it-- "you hate".
Ah, the ambiguities of pseudo-scary music...playing with certain images, fears, insecurities, whatever.
Now, if you want some good German sound, ask me. & :-P

And by the way, you sure are prolific today! & ;-)

And hell, you know what it means. I think it's scary and all I'm hearing is these really creepy-sounding vocals and stomping music.

The only other Rammstein song I've heard is "FireFight", and that was because it was used in a Gundam Wing music video. Excellent fan vid, won the best video award at last year's Fanime Convention. There's something creepy about a 9 year old lip-syncing to them.

Yeah. That's why I'm shaking my head. It's all very ridiculous, ya know?

NO kidding...

and stomping music.

Indeed. As I said, they are trying to be all weird and scary; saw them at the Bizarre Festival once where they set themselves on fire. Big freakin' "rah!". While one can get a good chuckle out of them and find them amusing, I don't fancy this kind of act much. Besides, it gives German rock/whatever a bad name.

In other words-- change the CD, luv. & ;-)

not a cd. MP3. :)

I set my arm on fire once. In chemistry class. The teacher asked for a volunteer, and I'm never one to turn down being the subject of neat chemistry tricks. I had to dip my hand in soapy water first, and then she lit it while doing some special chemical reaction thingy. It was all multi-colored. :g: My hand was like Buffy & Spikes....

[monanotlisa.livejournal.com]

Yeah, thought so but was too lazy to change it.

Hee. I remember that experiment.

"Like Buffy and Spike." One of my new favourite phrases. Ya know, "like Romeo and Juliet, like Mulder and Scully, like Buffy and Spike."

Oh yes. that should be a well known phrase.

0:45am. Yikes! Off to bed now.

Enjoy the rest of your Sunday, Rashaka!

I finally ventured to post a snippet of the Bebop fic I've been working on for that past year. You can find it here if you'd like to peruse... (snippet) (http://www.livejournal.com/users/leslina/58988.html)
