the bulgarian radio women's choir singing 'O Susanna' on the Tonight Show and trying not to let the audience clapping fuck them up... never seen this before tonight!

tempted to watch the evolution of Finish Him now...

surprisng how much cooler the first 3 games looked than the rest

you ain't kidding!

and when they just stop dubbing a new voice for a few games so it's all FOIT FOIT FOIT FOIT FOIT FOIT FOIT FOIT FOIT FOIT FOIT

That Bulgarian "O Susanna" is the last of three songs performed on that show. The whole thing is a pretty awesome lesson in "how to win over an audience".

As used in the excellent film -The Last Black Man in San Francisco-
Marshall is likely best known as the singing voice on The Luniz "I Got 5 On It"

the guy who produces my band made this

it's fucking incredible

uhhh..

I will never understand how the minds of people who spend seconds/minutes/hours work, turning a 16 year old concerned w/ the future of the planet into a dumb meme

idk if i can explain why this works for me beyond the level of "dumb meme," but it has something to do with the fact that the only music that reflects how angry i am about the end of the world is extreme metal

so, imo, this feels like it captures the essence of the speech, rather than trivializing it

That's a very necessary and welcome explanation, to see it as something commenting on the current crisis instead of trivializing it. Still feel Thunberg/anyone does not deserve to be memefied (who does it benefit? what good does it do? no-one and nothing, I so fucking hate it), but your context made me sigh a breath of relief, as I couldn't believe you'd actually gone Nelson (Simpsons Nelson, that is).

oh trust me i cried at her actual speech

death metal version also features some solid riffage and does not feel like a lazy attempt at meme metal

i lol'd without guilt and i am very pro-greta
agreed that it's got solid riffage
