Now that's a name I haven't heard in a while.

Ugh I was thinking Tattoo from Fantasy Island. Just dated myself. 😭

I rediscovered them ~3 years ago and learned they have a whole lot of English versions of their songs. So I started listening again for a while

It should have been that all along. Nature is healing. E: /s

I wonder if /r/superbowl will start allowing football memes in protest.

Only pictures of top-tier owls. Superb owls.

[–] Guru_Meditation_ 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That’s literally what the sub is. It’s about owls. thatsthejoke.bmp

Wow wow, that's a lot of bits wasted, may I suggest using thatsthejoke.png if you require high quality and don't want the even more efficient thatsthejoke.jpg?

🙈

thatsthejoke.webp supports both lossy and lossless compression. Therefore it is the larger friend and eats the other friends.

Nah. It should be what we do in the shadows memes and owls.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Should definetely be about superb owls

[–] Omegamanthethird 7 points 2 years ago

It was already about owls.

Oh man that name is such a throwback

I thought they were so hot at the time. Well, of course, that was like 95% of what the point was with the band so mission accomplished I guess. To celebrate the downfall of Reddit, here's Ne Ver Ne Boysia Ne Prosi of Eurovision 2003. A different age, when Russia was actually seen as pretty OK. It's too bad what has become of Russia because I think their language lends itself well to music. :) Imagine what could have been, a beautiful country stretching through Siberia.

The 90s/2000s were crazy times. Chin and Russia were on the path to join with the rest of the world.

Dunno exactly what happened but now we’re all on a near edge for WW3 and everyone is so tense.

What happened is that the theatre of peace let its curtains fall to the stage, revealing violence behind. For as long as the average person doesn't fight tooth and nail for what is right and good, violence will always return.

Julia Volkova back then.... dang

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 years ago

Reddit is in serious shit!

:p

[–] markovianparallax 9 points 2 years ago

I am so delighted right now.

[–] AbsurdityAccelerator 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I heard their song on a US radio station like a week ago, and it was Russian. It was so random.

[–] WhiteTiger 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I was surprised when I saw that they never recorded a version of the music video in english; they just found a couple parts that sort of matched the english lip sync and spliced the hell out of the rest of it. Which is why the makeout scene is played so much more in english than the original.

Huh? You had me excited but it’s the same old r/tattoo that it’s always been…
