Nanowar (of Steel) are awesome, but you need to know a lot about Italy and its society to get many of their jokes.

:hmm: Not sure which of the jokes I missed--they all seem pretty transparent to me!

It's not in every song, and many are more "International" and less local, and more focused on general nerdiness, but some of them (mainly the ones in Italian, maybe?) need some proficiency in Italian pop culture and present events.

:D Yes, I'm working through all their videos now that I got the bug.

Haha, that one was I believe their first big budget video, so to speak, prior to that their videos had a much more lo-fi ting to them. If you're going through their catalogue you might have seen that already.  :P

TierZoo is a pretty good channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHsRtomD4twRf5WVHHk-cMw), for anyone with kids who play video games.  Talks about zoology in video game terms, which animals have the best defense stats, the best HP, etc.

Since Thomas Winkler from Gloryhammer was in the Valhalleluja video, check out his band Gloryhammer who have a cheesy space fantasy theme and some fun videos, e.g. "Rise of the Chaos Wizards": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGV6bCTMM5w

Or "Hootsforce" with submarine in space: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BkUAzcja74Y

Funny how actual historians tend not to glorify historical events or agents while the amateur "history nerds" gravitate around such things.

Tell me about it.  :glare:

That's a good one, yes. Pity they don't publish much lately.

Also, the Imperial March; John Williams conducting the Vienna Philharmonic at Musikverein earlier this year, a concert I seriously regret to have missed (he was here for two nights and conducted pieces from several movies of his):

I've been following them for a while now and enjoy them quite a bit.

I also like Ten Second Songs who does covers of songs in unfamiliar styles. Especially is [Song] in X different styles, like his latest "KoRn - Freak On a Leash in 22 Styles": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pIVZ8HvSuss

Probably his best cover is Bohemian Rhapsody in the style of System of a Down: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95jTsckJjFo

Arnold Schwarzenegger with a message for the people of Styria:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5FvMoe-0gOE&feature=emb_logo

Nothing special, mostly urging them to keep social distancing and washing their hands, so they can come back strong after Corona, but I though people might like to hear him talk German.

Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.
