AMAZING Ping Pong Match
hey skyler, don't forget to vote for your own vid!
Ping pong and amazing really aren't allowed to be used in the same sentence in my book, but this clip was cute, I laughed!
Then again, I don't watch a lot of ping pong so I don't know if this happens a lot...but who cares?
good luck, and welcome to the mad world of addictive sifting!

(English translation below)
***French original
Si je m'arrête un instant
Pour te parler de ma vie
Juste comme ça tranquillement
Dans un bar rue St-Denis
J'te raconterai les souvenirs
Bien gravés dans ma mémoire
De cette époque où vieillir
Était encore bien illusoire
Quand j'agaçais les p'tites filles
Pas loin des balançoires
Et que mon sac de billes
Devenait un vrai trésor
Et ces hivers enneigés
À construire des igloos
Et rentrer les pieds g'lés
Juste à temps pour Passe-Partout
Mais au bout du ch'min dis-moi c'qui va rester
De la p'tite école et d'la cour de récré ?
Quand les avions en papier ne partent plus au vent
On se dit que l'bon temps passe finalement...
... Comme une étoile filante
Si je m'arrête un instant
Pour te parler de la vie
Je constate que bien souvent
On choisit pas mais on subit
Et que les rêves des ti-culs
S'évanouissent ou se refoulent
Dans cette réalité crue
Qui nous embarque dans le moule
La trentaine, la bedaine
Les morveux, l'hypothèque
Les bonheurs et les peines
Les bons coups et les échecs
Travailler, faire d'son mieux
En arracher, s'en sortir
Et espérer être heureux
Un peu avant de mourir
Mais au bout du ch'min dis-moi c'qui va rester
De notre p'tit passage dans ce monde effréné ?
Après avoir existé pour gagner du temps
On s'dira que que l'on était finalement
... Que des étoiles filantes
Si je m'arrête un instant
Pour te parler de ma vie
Juste comme ça tranquillement
Pas loin du Carré St-Louis
C'est qu'avec toi je suis bien
Et que j'ai pu' l'goût de m'en faire
Parce que tsé voir trop loin
C'pas mieux que r'garder en arrière
Malgré les vieilles amertumes
Et les amours qui passent
Les chums qu'on perd dans' brume
Et les idéaux qui se cassent
La vie s'accroche et renaît
Comme les printemps reviennent
Dans une bouffée d'air frais
Qui apaise les coeurs en peine
Ça fait que si à' soir t'as envie de rester
Avec moi, la nuit est douce on peut marcher
Et même si on sait ben que tout dure rien qu'un temps
J'aimerai ça que tu sois pour un moment...
... Mon étoile filante
Mais au bout du ch'min dis-moi c'qui va rester...
Mais au bout du ch'min dis-moi c'qui va rester...
... Que des étoiles filantes
***English translation
If I stop a moment
To tell you about my life
Just like that, quietly
In a bar on St-Denis
I'd tell you the memories
Well-etched into my memory
From that time when aging
Was still but illusory
When I annoyed the little girls
Not far from the swings
And my bag of marbles
Became a real treasure
And these snowy winters
Of constructing igloos
And going back inside with frozen feet
Just in time for Passe-Partout
But at the end of the road tell me what will remain
Of the little school and the playground?
When the paper planes no longer fly on the wind
We tell ourselves that the good times are finally ending...
...like a shooting star
If I stop a moment
To tell you about life
I note that quite often
We do not choose but we endure
And that the dreams of little lads
Dissipate or collapse
In this hard reality
Which casts us in the mold
The thirties, the belly
The kids, the mortgage
The pleasures and the sorrows
The strokes of luck and the failures
Working, doing one's best
And struggling, and getting out
And hoping to be happy
A little before dying
But at the end of the road tell me what will remain
Of our little passage through this mad world?
After having existed to buy some time
We'll tell ourselves that we were in the end
...but shooting stars
If I stop a moment
To tell you about my life
Just like that, quietly
Not far from St-Louis Square
It's only with you that I'm okay
And that I lost the taste to care
Because you know seeing too far ahead
Isn't better than looking backwards
Despite the old bitternesses
And the loves that pass
The friends we lose in the mists
And the ideals which fall apart
Life holds on and renews
Like the springtimes return
In a puff of fresh air
Which appeases pained hearts
So if tonight you want to stay
With me, the night is soft we can walk
And even if we know that all lasts but a time
I'd like you to be for a moment...
...My shooting star
But tell me at the end of the road what will remain...
But tell me at the end of the road what will remain...
...Just shooting stars
Holy Smokes Tr2n is coming (Blog Entry by dag)
Seems like a unnecessary sequel though?.
The director has made commercials for both Halo and Gears of War, the Mad world one specifically. He's listed in IMDB as the director working on a remake of Logan's Run?
The writers are 2 guys from Lost, so the story will make no sense ZING!.

Kool Aid Man Questions Own Existence.
This cover of Mad World has been overused ever since Donnie Darko came out, but it's funny in this context.
Kiwi! - "Mad World" version
wow, as much as I think that "Mad World" is a bit overused these days for sad movie scenes, I can understand the power of the song. compared with the original version of the video this version is not that much sadder, but the music seems to drown out some of the initial joy of discovering what is happening. basically, you hear the first few piano notes of that song and you know something is not gonna end happily; so the song does have strong emotive qualities which is a powerful thing for any form of art to be able to do.
just wish it wasn't used quite so often because it eventually detracts from the power and beauty of the song IMHO

how is this viral ?
D'oh! It isn't. My mistake. Don't know how that happened, but I fixed it.
An elephant that can paint elephants
someone should find a video on why elephants are going mad world wide, elephant attacks are increasing. The most likely theory is the orphaning of young elephants and the gruesome killings of their parents in front of them. No wonder, with this type of memory for shape alone, the elephants must remember that we, humans are those responsible for their parent's fate.
Call of Duty 4: Winter Crash
What's the music? It's sad, real sad. (in the good way)
It could have been awesome to have a fully-fledged firefight, with the sounds all muted and that song playing. Sort of like the Gears of War trailer with Mad World.

I appreciate the effort, gargoyle, but unfortunately only gold star users and above can invoke "save". Maybe another day, and again I appreciate your effort.

El-P & Trent Reznor - Flyentology
I don't remember the detainee look, but he was wearing a balaclava on entrance (to the sound of Gary Jool's Mad World track and some tasty visuals). First time I've seen him perform, and I was seriously impressed...Where/when do you catch a concert of his, Bamdrew?
