There are all kinds of interesting and entertaining videos on YouTube as well as music. I thought it could be fun if we share our favourites by posting links so others can watch them. Suggestions for videos - short talks and documentaries, comedy, quirky, music/songs with a good video to go with them, music/songs with a photo (different to just saying what we're listening to in another thread).
IMPORTANT - I checked with a staff member about this -
I'll start with a few examples.
A robot dog dancing UpTown Spot
Very silly. WARNING - the background changes colours very quicky for a short section of this video which gives a flashing effect. Wishmaster - The Misheard Lyrics
One of my all time favourites best described as a pagan battle song. Manowar - The Crown And The Ring (With Lyrics)
Goa Trance Evolution Spring - Que Dex
For people who are interested in food. What Mongolian Breakfast Is Like
Interesting idea! I'll include a small description/spoilers with my links so that people won't click pointlessly if they're not interested in the stuff.
prosperity mantra You know how many videos or scams there are with "do ___ and you'll get instant money" or "share this if you don't want bad luck"? well, this mantra actually works. you can listen to it at any time, but apparently it's better before sleeping (it's also a relaxing sound). you can listen to it just for this, if you don't believe what i said ;p
a DIY project for those who like designer stuff, but can't afford it (i know you're there ;p ) This is for those glitter shoes by Louboutin that sell for $800 or so. This video is in English, but a French lady (Laurette) just published a video inspired by this one, and she used glitter make-up instead. It gave me the impression it worked better, or just as good. Make these for personal use, not for selling. She has many other tutorials.
another DIY/upcycling for clothes this time. This channel is pretty much amazing! This lady is very talented and not really scared to wear clothes that others might find too "out there." Here she makes jumpsuits from clothes she found while thrifting.
I recently started sewing and so, now you can understand my recommendations, lol.
I really have to update my blog ObscureJourney and my review site BeingObscure. French speakers can read my reviews here.
Your relaxing mantra reminded me of an unusual relaxation video I found - B-17 Bomber Sound for Sleeping : 2 Hour Long Prop Airplane Audio
While on the subject of planes I love the Eurofighter Typhoon. This is a professionally made promotional video with some great music. Eurofighter Typhoon Sensational
Something very silly. The Harry Potter version of Badger Badger Badger - Potter Potter Potter
While we're on silly - Silly Walk City March in Brno (2013)
Panic Pippy - Gosh! What a Sight! (Banned Vintage Cartoon)
SPOILER (click to toggle)
Not actually a banned vintage cartoon. :P Just a silly title.
Content warning: Animated blood, guts, and vomit. On top of being animated, it's black and white, so not really detailed. Just be wary if you're especially sensitive to that kind of thing.
That was surreal
Paleowolf - Feral Spirit (dark tribal powerdrums)
Warning - the video shows a photograph with rain falling across it. This gives a flashing effect but you won't miss anything if you play the video in another tab.
that video... wow. I really like these "banned" cartoons because these days cartoons are plain boring.
SPOILER (click to toggle)
I need to spoiler this because it's a bit off topic. Well, the banned ones were for adults and not for children, unless you wanted to brainwash and program them (conspiracies, that are actually true).
Also, at a certain moment, 1:29 there's a tortured person on a device shaped like an X. They start to brainwash the girl at minute 2; and the poor thing couldn't take it, hence her head exploded.
I really like this Turkish song. I think she has a really sexy voice XD Ebru Gündeş - Seninle Çok İşim Var It's a love song, but not a ballad.
And I really can't have enough of this Jewish song: Sagiv Cohen - Yashkef Elohim. It's about God and his vocals give me the chills.

Very nice songs. I tried to find a translation of the second one with no luck
Off-topic stuff
Yeah it's really bizarre. I love this mix of somewhat cute art style with the horror!
Haha I totally missed some of the stuff going on as Pippy was smashing through the walls! Ah well. I'm sure she's fine! :)
If you enjoyed that you might be interested in the work of Studio Goblin. Panic Pippy's creator, Clockwork Pixel, is one of the studio founders.
Another creator I've come to enjoy recently is Gooseworx. She makes music, animations, webcomics... I love this track and the character design, Starlane Stroll.
May God look over From His Holy Dwelling and may he strike all those who hate His People with a wink of an eye
Behold here is the Lord rising and standing on a plumb-line Giving them a cup of poison but not wine
cool! i'll check it out! I'm sure Pippy is fine, hehe

That video is sweet.
Thanks for the translation.
Two silly dance videos. You need to turn the sound up for the second one.
A learning experience is one of those things that say, "You know that thing you just did? Don't do that." - Douglas Adams My wishlist.
LOL :)
Grandfather's song - Tyurgen Kam (a shaman musician in Siberia}
I'm not sure how to describe this. Techno with jaw harp and throat singing?
Any Sailor Moon fans? click here ;)

[Url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jwLgfCXJaKE]Jenna Marbles - I Want a New Face[/url] Does contain bad language
This video has made me cry laughing multiple times and I can't think of anything else that has had effect on me.
Sweet Treasures pet=Zagnut pet=Savour [Pet=Chivato] (Ikumoradeekanox)
The HU - The Great Chinggis Khaan (Official Music Video)
The HU - Yuve Yuve Yu - Live at the Mongolian Embassy, London
lmao love jenna marbles! when she painted herself pink it reminded me of another "tutorial" video i think is hilarious! Cotton Candy Princess Tutorial / Special Treats ? contains language and the use of cannabis for recreational use
also here's a groovy MV: MONSUNE - OUTTA MY MIND; for sure worth checking out!
Something very silly
30 minutes of Turkish music from the 70s sung by female singers.

I was just looking for a way to share some of my favorite YouTubers! Took a few minutes to watch the robo dog and the Mongolian breakfast. It would be fun to try that breakfast.
I really enjoy watching cooking videos and trying new foods. One of the things I find hard though is knowing about the ingredient and what I should be looking for in the store. This was a really helpful video and she has others for other ingredients. And if you enjoy Thai cooking she has some very delicious looking recipes.
I watched the DIY/upcycling video and I really enjoyed her excitement and creativity.
If you enjoy sewing you may enjoy Bernadette Banner.
This is a new teaser for something up coming It involves intricate sewing and why we pursue somethings long after other may have given up.
A rather forgiving rant about fashion, artists, and knockoffs. If you have a little more time this one if very informative but also 25 min long.
This is a very good picture of the kind of effort we used to put into our sewing. I enjoy her videos because they are so peaceful.
What kind of sewing do you enjoy or are getting into?
For me I think Tolkien won that rap.
I really like Bernadette Banner! <3 her videos are so peaceful and she seems so full of knowledge despite her young appearance. and she has such an adorable fluff-ball baby! <3 I'm making clothes from scratch, trying to refashion some of the existing ones (of mine), I also did 2 upcycles, and LOTS of pillowcases XD I needed and wanted cheerful pillowcases, and this is what I did, haha.
I'm also into embroidering. I like the traditional Romanian embroidery motifs, and I'm trying to improve this skill when I have some spare time. I'd like to improve it to the point I'll be able to make a traditional Romanian blouse all by myself. At this point, I still have a bit to go - the grannies that still do this craft use really small stitching, and I'm wondering HOW?! how do they still see? I think they use a magnifier, haha.
Recently, I've been playing this type of music upon waking up. It's very peaceful, calming, and really good to start the day with a good mood.
