Indochine Videos & Songs, my new favorite band

Indochine are a group from France that initially were part of an 80s pop phase but of course singing only in French meant that they were somewhat isolated from the rest of the world and only popular in French speaking countries.

Now they are getting a bit more worldwide attention and their tours are taking them all across the world but of course they will still always remain a hugely popular French band. 

Their music today is very dynamic as they can do rock and pop but their song writing is of high quality that still can catch the attention of old fans as well as the new ones that didn't exactly grow up with the same music in the 80s. 

This post will list my favorite music videos and songs the band has produced over the years and actually is more recent compared to their 80s stuff.

Alica & June Song Video

This is a great rock/pop song all the way back from 2005

 

Playboy Song & Video

Playboy was released in 2009, the video is a work of art on it's own however the song itself is great to listen to. One of my new favorites.

 

You spin me Round (like a record) Song Video

This is a great cover song and they do a hot video of it too. Wow!

 

Juste Toi et Moi Song & Video

This is probably my favorite video and song by this band. It is a simple song but it captures a lot of emotions with the song itself and the video is also great. Just look for the same song in live version and you'll realize what this song means to the fans of Indochine.

 

 

Le Dernier Jour Song & Video

The video on this song is great and the song is a classic. This is the song that got me following Indochine in the first place and what a great find it was.

Meanest pranks ever

I was on youtube the other day bored out of my mind and I ran into some prank videos and on the side after you view a video it keeps suggesting similar videos. Then I found these 2 videos which are officially the meaning pranks ever imaginable.

I'll start with the first prank video which I'm just going to call insane vampire prank and leave the rest to your imagination.

 

The next video deserves it's own category completely and I'll just call it worst Japanese prank ever and you just have to see it yourself to believe it. I never knew the Japanese were this crazy.

Cute kittehs that make you wanna buy a cat

I love cats but I am somewhat allergic to them and everytime I see some cute kittehs (that's lolcat talk for kitties). So when I saw this video it made me want to go to the local pet shelter where they have lots of unwanted cats and dogs. I nearly came home with a cute kitteh but I work too much to be able to look after a cat and it makes it very difficult to travel as well. I know I can get others to look after my pets for me but it's not always people that I fully trust and would be heartbroken if they neglected them in any way.

So presenting you is I R cute Kitteh

 

my glasses were stolen, great

What's worse than getting your glasses stolen? Having them stolen by a thief who smashes your car window to get to it. Maybe it was my fault for leaving them there in the coffee holder but the glasses were only worth maybe $100 and the window is going to cost me a few hundred plus I gotta clean up the mess. Not that it matters anymore but they stole these. They must have not noticed my ipod because that wasn't taken at all but I have the black one and it blends into my dashboard really well.

So half of my day has been trying to sort out getting the glass fixed. The rest of it is going to be watching videos, shopping online and chatting.

I don't feel so bad after seeing this random scary video on youtube of some big forest fire:

Bin Laden finally killed

Osama bin laden didn't get the last laugh and was recently killed although the details seem fishy at best. His death comes nearly 10 years after the September 11th attacks in 2001 which changed America into a nation of terror. It seems every other word in the news is terror, terrorism, weapons of mass destruction and more. 

One thing is for certain is that the islam-muslim religion has become more popular. Right now this religion is the fastest growing religion and now has 1.5 billion followers which surely is bigger than twitter and facebook. You can see more of what is happening in the muslim world at webtvwire.com and also at a BBC. 

So what is the meaning of the former worlds' most wanted terrorist? It means their al queda terror network has lost their leader but who knows if their group has any strength left and will continue their mindless jihad.

Many Americans around the world were happy while other countries either politely commented or just kept quiet, maybe because they don't care but who knows what the reasons are.

The person who will probably get all the credit for this is Barack Obama where any president would have taken the credit as there has been a war in Afghanistan for nearly 10 years as well. Now the question is did Pakistan know the whereabouts of Bin Laden? Many CNN news reports are suggesting that Pakistan intelligence knew of this but turned a blind eye to the situation.

Japan nuclear waste disaster

The nuclear disaster that has taken place in Japan has many around the world wondering if we should stop being dependant on nuclear energy. We have a situation that is repeating both Chernobyl which is like a complete meltdown and now talks are happening that the Japanese government is considering making a full encasement of the damaged reactors which is the equivalent of saying we give up and that we have a full blown crisis on our hands.

Perhaps the worst part of this disaster is the fact that the Japanese government had tried to cover up as much of this disaster as possible. There are rumors circulating that the company that was running the plant had repeatedly failed numerous safety checks and that this place was probably going to have their own problems sometime in the future.

At least they can say look with a massive earthquake and tsunami how could anyone expect anything worse than this?

Here is a clip from Russia Today news that explains what is going to happen with these problematic nuclear power plants.

 

Libya getting bombed, repels Gaddafi

Moammar Gaddafi is finally getting a taste of his own medicine as Libya is getting bombed. This isnt' exactly a good thing or something the world needs to cheer for however their own people were tired of this man extorting money from his own people. He had a strong control over the population and the people were tired of living under his power for no reason other than to give him power and money. Well it seems that people have cracked and people are willing to die for the cause.

The main problem is Gaddafi ordered his military personelle to attack their own civilians. This is a catch 22 because what if people in the United States did this against their own government. Of course the US wouldn't attack and kill their own people but the real question here is what is the fair law in each country.

Overall it seems the world is against Gaddafi whom everyone seems to acknowledge he is responsible for the air india bombing over lockerbie.

Egypt what a mess

The news of unstability in Egypt is going on for too long. It seems that they are in the BBC news daily and nearly front page cover of the website.

It is hard to say which side I am on. On one side I want the conflicts to stop and the people to also stop suffering. On the other side it appears that the government just wants to rule and dictate but not actually do anything to help the people. It is too difficult to make an informed decision since most opinions are first formed with the influence of the media.

We would have to be in Egypt to ask the people what is happening and what do they want. It seems clear that the majority want Mubarak to step down and that the people are demanding change.

In Tunisia that was another weird situation where the government ran away with over 50 million euros in gold on a few planes. This is pure theft and I don't know how these people can live their lives stealing money from others unless it was theirs to begin with. If you are that rich you shouldn't have to be running the government.

A new showerhead!

I finally got a new showerhead for ... well my shower of course. The last one was getting a bit nasty and I think you know why. What most people don't understand is that showerheads are always special items for any girl.

So let's just say these days I'm wearing more of a smile as a result.

Now for some relaxation time. I have been working so much these days that I've decided to go to the spa and treat myself right. I have gone for a massage and that felt so good, I've decided to book another appointment next week. I also went for a facial but that's almost like a weekly thing for me lol.

My friend also suggested I spend some time and give reflexology a try. To me it sounds very weird but I guess I'll give it a go if it is good for the health. I just don't want to turn into some weirdo or anything. She also keeps pressuring me into trying acupuncture! I don't know if I can handle needles sticking into my back, that is taking weird to another level.
