Bruce Swedien

Has got nothing on this! This is old to me but new for a lot of you. I just drank some monster to wake up and catch a flight but to my dismay it is day light savings time and I have an extra hour to kill. GRRRR

I must admit that I was dissapointed that this has nothing to do with Swedien but that video is hillarious !

I usually don't end up watching putatively funny videos through more than a 1/3 to a 1/2-way through -- but I couldn't take my eyes off this one.

I think my reaction was much like the young girl's... wide eyed disbelief and horror.

I wouldn't be surprised if the director is doing big budget Bollywood features now...

Some kind somethin' else.



PS... next time I'm on the dance floor, I'm trying that right hand behind the back thing. Hot.

OMG, also check out the other videos, like the music video and Indian Superman.

I guess we don't have to worry about music and film being outsourced...

All of these Indian bollywood films rip off so much stuff from hollywood, and pop music from here. I can't believe any of these production companies don't get sued.
There is an Indian bhargra song I heard after "Ice Ice Baby" came out here, called "Cold Cold Water". Same tune, same melody, but with Hindi words. Good greif.

I saw a bollywood film being done when I was in India in 2000. Holy crap these are giant sets, tons of people, and millions of dollars invested. But no original ideas.

Also, every movie flows like this: Comedy, Musical, Love Story, Musical, Action, Musical, Drama, Musical, Musical.

Oh, enjoy this also: YouTube - Indian Beatles

It's not just in India. It's all over Europe too. I sit and watch commercials here, and one after another they rip off popular American and UK hit songs. If someone bothered to track all this stuff down there'd be a lot of lawsuits, and a lot of cash exchanging hands.

I guess you have never seen the Mexican version of jerry springer

Mexican TV mocks American TV in almost every way

I thought we lived in a de-mocracy not a mockery
