  • It’s time for another good idea, bad idea

    In YouTube, that is.

    Good idea
    Using new media to show the quandaries of senior citizens, as has been done with The Zimmers (more info here).

    Bad idea
    Using new media to show that any idiot can become famous.  And no, I’m not talking about Paris Hilton, but about
    some guys that can’t even speak their native language, never mind play instruments.

    The End.

    1. [this* is bad]

      * Boy, that second video… I didn't even make it past the 33rd second, I couldn't get it to stop fast enough once they started "singing".

      And in this situation you should be glad you don't speak Spanish… It's ridiculuously hilarious…

    3. Claro! Estoy muy alegra que no hablo español. Si, si, español con un montón de cabellos. Ja ja!

      I didn't even bother with what that dj was saying. He talked much too fast for my untrained ear.

      Don't worry, it's really not that important. The gist is that the guy is singing about having "sets in etsess in the convenients tstore"… these guys definitely have balls to present themselves on TV, given that their playing, their singing and their overall lyricism are just plain awful.

    5. hehe, but the first video was great
