I have not yet watched it, but I expect Excellent Horse-like Lady won't take the United States by storm.

won't take the United States by storm.

I've been reading this message over and over again and meaning to come back to it to figure out what that refers to. But I'm still without a clue. Help me out here?

Horse like lady? Sarah Jessica Parker?

It's one of North Korea's favorite videos. I haven't listened to it yet, though.

Um.

Somehow they failed to make a textile factory look sexy.

I keep forgetting to view this. I expect the music is atrocious, and the video itself typical of low-budget propagandism, but knowing it to be one country's favored video lends a measure of curiosity to the whole thing.

Just curious.

Ahhh yes, once you mentioned North Korea I understood. How could anyone not want to serve Dear Leader after
watching that?

Oh, right... finally watching the video now.

Every bit as bad as expected.

Supposedly, Hyon Song-wol (the lady featured in the video) had an affair or somesuch with the current leader of North Korea. There was a rumor that she had been executed for debauchery or somesuch in a kind of purging of actors and actresses, but then she showed up in a video, wishing she could do more for North Korea.

I thought the video was made before the execution.

That video was, yes.

She appeared in another video showing she is still alive.

This amuses me.

In 1992, the group Nice & Smooth sampled the intro from the Partridge Family's "I Think I Love You" in their rap hit, "Hip Hop Junkies."

(At least, according to Wikipedia... I haven't heard the rap tune yet).

That just makes me laugh.

I'd rather watch that, and be entertained by the campy value, than most of the overproduced drek that passes for our own music/video culture.

Portnoy plays the classics on a "Hello Kitty" drum kit. Hilarity ensues.

(If you don't know who Mike Portnoy is, report to music re-education camp promptly.)

I saw this elsewhere and promptly ignored it.  Your comment got me wondering so I searched the name, which lead to other questions, "What is 'Dream Theater'?" and "What songs did they do?"

so yes, I'll second IGs recommendation. Off to the bootcamp.

As long as boot camp doesn't involve this music I will go.

Go anyway. Dream Theater is *awesome*

wrong tempus. Was awesome. The guy you can see in the video, petruci, isn't a Dreamtheater member anymore. The quality declined with Petruci being massively owerworked, and when he said they should pause for a year to regain old strength the others decided to continue without him.
