I like to post one's with subtitles/lyrics when possible so deaf folk like Cammy can at least get an idea of what they are about... :)

Ah ok, but then he/she misses the 80's vibe!
And the canary said: \'chirp\'

Ahh not so... :)

I learned may years ago while working on a building site something very interesting and clever about deaf people... ;)

There was a young guy called Gary who was deaf but at teatime and lunchtime in the site hut he would always tap his fingers in time to the beat of any music that was on the radio. Now this puzzled many of us for months until one day curiosity got the better of me and I wrote a note and passed it to him asking how he was able to do this...

He passed a note back asking if I had noticed that he always sat with his back against the wall or one hand placed flat on the table, I replied no I hadn't noticed, he then wrote another note that explained it all... :)

If he sat with his back against the wall or his hand placed firmly on the table he was able to feel the bass vibrations of the music through the wall or on the table and so could pick up the beat of the music and if someone was singing along to it he could pick up some words by lip reading... :)

You know it never occurred to anyone of us on that site to think that but I've always remembered it to this very day and since that time came across several other deaf people whom have told me the same... :)

PS: @ Adz... Zoom is one of the best songs ever... :)


"Zoom" is nice although I love the funky sound of "Act Like You Know" :)

I wished. Even better if they'd be coal miners from my Silesian area ;)
But no, those appear to be Russian.

@ Shoonay
Thanks for posting that, you've just introduced me to some new music that I like and would most likely never have heard otherwise... Cheers... :pint:


Back to me old favourites today... :)

Don't take this the wrong way but you folk in your neck of the woods listen to some pretty weird erm... stuff... ;)

What's with the guys vocals, sounds like a Jamaican heavy reggae singer who's got throat cancer from smoking too many spliffs... weird... :)

Ha, life would be very boring without a bit of weirdness... ;)

This one's probably a bit "normal":

Very true... :)

Normal folk are just plain not weird and that's what makes em boring... :)

Mind you you won't find many normal folk on this site (thank gawd)... :)

Gratuitous use of the F-bomb, but pretty funny.
