Fun YouTube Videos

[Artemis@BC]

Not so much "fun" as "freakin' amazing": excavating an ant hill.

(Though it seems too bad they couldn't do it without evicting all the ants.)

I'm not sure I'd call this "fun" ...maybe memorable? (once she saw what she filmed)

 

[Artemis@BC]

^ Pretty sure that's fake.

 

[mackiecat]

Dog Moms is a farce of dance moms . There are 12 short episodes and they are hilarious

 

[PeterG]

^ Pretty sure that's fake.

I think this one is fake too:

You're right. There's no way someone would listen to that song in real life.

Brothers Convince Sister of Zombie Apocalypse

This is one of those videos that makes me laugh after it's over when I think about one part of it and can't help but start laughing again!

Is it

Spoiler

"I can say pants?

Coz that made me LOL.

 

[PeterG]

That one is funnier watching it again. But these ones all make me bellow. (Can one "bellow" with laughter??)

Spoiler

What am I supposed to do with this??

Spoiler

The CAT, you idiot!!

Spoiler

We can only take funfetti or chocolate cake...this will be what we're living off of!!!

 

[Artemis@BC]

Yeah, the cat was LOL for me too.

I have no freakin' idea what funfetti is (and couldn't understand what she was saying anyway) so that one was a bit lost on me.

 

[Cachoo]

It might take years, long after they have forgotten that day, but I hope one day Millicent gets them back.

 

[PeterG]

More of a co-operative thing than a battle, but great nonetheless:

Kinky Boots, Hamilton Stars Battle in Freestyle Rap

I love these next two!! Both were made by Mini-Wheats, but they're not an advertisement really, just both fun and sweet at the same time:

Kids secretly control a fitness class

Kids secretly control a speed dating event

This is from Spain's Got Talent, 37 year old Cristina Ramos begins as an opera singer, very good one too, until a slight change of pace. The reaction of the judges and audience is priceless! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vQtwBSraUo

That's cool. Linda Ronstadt tried to work in the both genres, but she never pulled it off. I wonder if Simon Cowell has a hand in all the foreign versions of his shows. The guy must be richer than God.

 

[Jot the Dot Dot]

Well, here's Cristina in her 2nd appearance. Similar genre-mixing opera & pop! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKzN5CUil0c

 

[PeterG]

That's cool. Linda Ronstadt tried to work in the both genres, but she never pulled it off.

Are you talking about Ronstadt's role in The Pirates of Penzance? She received a Tony nomination for that performance and for the televised version of that musical, she was nominated for a Golden Globe.

Yep. That's the one. I don't know. I found it a bit lacking.

 

[Artemis@BC]

Yeah, I wasn't impressed with her as Mabel either. The voice was ok, but it wasn't the right tone. Not English enough for one, and I'm not talking about accent.

 

[Artemis@BC]

Key & Peele do a "don't talk during the movie" PSA.

 

[Artemis@BC]

"There's no skull in this bit."

(What's the collective noun for a group of Hamlets?)

"The uploader has not made this video available in your country.

Sorry about that."

 

[Artemis@BC]

Shoot, they caught up with us -- it worked "in your country" yesterday ...

 

[Artemis@BC]

Poor video quality, but this might still be the best thing I have ever seen. Karma.

 

[Artemis@BC]

I'm sure this was doing the rounds already back when it was made in December, but since today is May the Forth, here's a great little Star Wars a cappella.

 

[Artemis@BC]

In honour of David Attenborough's 90th birthday. Gorillas

(anyone who watched the brilliant claymation series Creature Comforts will recognize a few of their touches -- I'm assuming Aardman made this one too)

ETA: also Penguins and Lyrebird.

 

[Artemis@BC]

Kittens dig buskers.

Alanis Morissette Updates 'Ironic' Lyrics

Duet with James Corden on the Late Late Show.

 

[Johnny_Fever]

Another nice duet, but it needs more Anna:

Justin Timberlake and Anna Kendrick - "True Colors" Live at Cannes

Unless you were a fan of this Prog Rock musician, you'll probably not recognize (or appreciate the humor of it) drummer Carl Palmer (of Emerson, Lake & Palmer and Asia fame) playing the Banjolele! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qVRAttBkKEw
