An oldie... But still fun to watch
Gah! I almost died watching it, hypnoztized into immobility!
So, so long!
Still, it's cool they included Samurai Jack
Anyways... Here's something I've accumulated during the years. These AMVs predate YouTube so I stuffed them into my home server under my table:
Ranma + ? (5Mb). The song is so recognizable -- too bad I stink at remembering names. "My heart in set on you / to my heart I must be true"
FLCL + Mission Impossible (19 Mb)
Sailor Moon + Moondance - Nightwish (53 Mb)
Slayers + "Hangover the morning after" (5 Mb) - "Remember, overindulgence in alcohol hits you not in the liver but in the wallet". A singer emulating the Russian/Ukrainian lingo of Odessa (on an unrelated note it's what we strive for when writing Ukyou in Russian: she's from Osaka as well!). As for the words you should only really know one: "
horilka" is Ukrainian for "vodka/hooch". :p Yo'll learn it, I guarantee that
misc. Ghibli + The Mummer's Dance by Loreena McKennett (63 Mb)
I don't know how would this translate, but... This song fits Katsuragi Misato
so well!
NGE + "She walks her life laughing" by Time Machine (11 Mb)
I tried searching for English translation but
the only I found was Google Translate faeces, so I translated the song myself:
She walks her life laughing.
She is light like wind. Nowhere
would she falter.
Her tried method of dealing with problems
Is like they aren't there:
She sees sunshine in everything!
She walks her life laughing.
Meeting and biding farewells, never feeling sad
Of goodbyes being easy and meetings being fleeting.
And the new faces hyrry to blur
Into a fuzzy circle of
Sort of friends.
She walks her life laughing.
At parties she feels at home, like everything is familiar.
Luck is with her, her life is successful.
And everyone without exception is following her
With their eyes.
Never noticing how cries at nights
She who walks her life laughing...
NGE + "Jeanne" by Falco (29 Mb). The song is in German, I found an English translation
here but I can't tell how truthful it is (have to find something to read in German and finally learn it, I still have school basics, dammit).
Gundam(?) + ? (67 Mb) Again, the song is unfamiliar to me but the emotional charge of this amv is so powerful. In war, there are no winners, "I am the great white hunter / Man to man, soldier to soldier, ashes to ashes".
If you saw any of these on YouTube, let me know!
