1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:03,080
And I walk with a hat of colored spots.

2
00:00:12,380 --> 00:00:17,700
Hello and welcome to We Can't Rewind, We've Gone Too Far, a podcast where a Scotsman, an

3
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:22,380
Irishman and a Bulgarian discuss the worst, silliest and weirdest as fuck music videos.

4
00:00:23,020 --> 00:00:23,900
Hello, I'm Nele.

5
00:00:24,080 --> 00:00:24,520
Hi, I'm David.

6
00:00:24,740 --> 00:00:26,360
So today we're one man down.

7
00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:31,520
Nioh has finally put on his big boy pants and gone away to do his big boy job.

8
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:33,720
It is okay though, because it's Bulgaria week.

9
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:40,040
And we have invited our second guest ever to help us figure out our first ever Bulgarian music video.

10
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:45,660
The absolute banger that is 1998's Donnie Muncio hit, Shabkanat Svetnyi Petna.

11
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:47,760
Everyone say hello to J-Lo.

12
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:49,060
Not your name.

13
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:49,580
Hello J-Lo.

14
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:50,940
Hello, I'm J-Lo.

15
00:00:51,420 --> 00:00:52,120
Hi J-Lo.

16
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:54,820
Thank you very much for inviting me.

17
00:00:55,060 --> 00:00:58,320
And I've not seen this video for a fucking long time.

18
00:00:58,660 --> 00:01:00,380
So it almost feels like...

19
00:01:00,380 --> 00:01:02,660
Because we were like eight when this video came out.

20
00:01:03,220 --> 00:01:06,180
So it almost feels like just watching it for the first time.

21
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:08,540
That's good. It's fresh in all our memories then.

22
00:01:08,660 --> 00:01:10,300
Did you remember watching it when you were a kid?

23
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:11,380
I remember it being there.

24
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,080
I don't necessarily remember how I reacted to it.

25
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:17,800
But I remember being a very soft Donnie Montil fan

26
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:19,900
because it's what you were when you were eight, I guess.

27
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:20,420
Yeah.

28
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:21,900
You know, they had some bangers.

29
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:25,080
The song is horrible nowadays, but we'll get to there.

30
00:01:25,180 --> 00:01:26,120
I think it's really catchy.

31
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:26,780
I disagree.

32
00:01:26,960 --> 00:01:28,720
Yeah, it's brain warm.

33
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:30,860
It's pretty bad.

34
00:01:31,140 --> 00:01:34,920
It's definitely been going around my head a lot since I listened to it earlier.

35
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:38,820
Sorry.

36
00:01:39,100 --> 00:01:43,540
Bulgaria has brought its Gone Too Farcast A game with this nightmare Dungeons & Dragons

37
00:01:44,100 --> 00:01:45,380
situation we have found ourselves in.

38
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:49,480
The song and video got released in 1998 and good luck trying to find any more information

39
00:01:49,540 --> 00:01:49,740
on it.

40
00:01:49,780 --> 00:01:51,000
Who thought of this masterpiece?

41
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:51,920
Who directed it?

42
00:01:52,100 --> 00:01:54,360
Who was the poor soul creating the CGI dragons?

43
00:01:54,660 --> 00:01:55,300
Who was their dealer?

44
00:01:55,450 --> 00:01:56,820
And does anyone still have his number?

45
00:01:57,060 --> 00:01:58,160
Basically, we know fuck all

46
00:01:58,380 --> 00:01:59,340
because there's no information anywhere.

47
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,380
Those are all the questions that I was asking myself

48
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:03,360
when I was watching this.

49
00:02:05,020 --> 00:02:07,320
What the fuck was up with that CGI dragon?

50
00:02:07,860 --> 00:02:09,460
I would not have thought that when I was eight

51
00:02:09,899 --> 00:02:10,640
growing up in Bulgaria.

52
00:02:10,740 --> 00:02:11,460
I probably would have thought,

53
00:02:11,860 --> 00:02:12,800
whoa, this is cool.

54
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:13,540
Yeah.

55
00:02:13,890 --> 00:02:15,380
The basic summary of the video is

56
00:02:15,430 --> 00:02:16,320
our two main characters,

57
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:18,180
the aforementioned Donnie and Monchil,

58
00:02:18,340 --> 00:02:20,520
either go to sleep and have some crazy shared dream

59
00:02:20,620 --> 00:02:21,620
where they fight CGI dragons,

60
00:02:21,920 --> 00:02:24,160
or we are watching them as part of an alien simulation

61
00:02:24,500 --> 00:02:25,580
trying to lower our defenses.

62
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:27,140
That's the first time I read that.

63
00:02:27,140 --> 00:02:27,340
That's weird.

64
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,960
There are also flying hats and lip-shaped UFOs.

65
00:02:34,260 --> 00:02:36,740
This video has literally, and I mean literally, everything.

66
00:02:38,660 --> 00:02:40,040
The night is so rich,

67
00:03:07,100 --> 00:03:14,100
It does kind of look like someone's taken like a box of pre-made CGI models and just dumped them over a pre-existing video.

68
00:03:14,580 --> 00:03:16,860
I don't know if you would have had that at that point though.

69
00:03:17,020 --> 00:03:17,580
That's the thing.

70
00:03:18,010 --> 00:03:18,800
It might all be original.

71
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:19,260
I don't know.

72
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,720
1998, that was like solid four years after Toy Story.

73
00:03:22,860 --> 00:03:25,600
So you would expect that there's some already made.

74
00:03:26,300 --> 00:03:29,720
It's a pretty advanced CGI, you know, from 1998 as well.

75
00:03:29,940 --> 00:03:30,600
Like that alien.

76
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:32,140
I'm looking at it right now.

77
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:36,160
I mean, in 1998, this was pretty cutting edge shit, you know.

78
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,880
Fucking Jurassic Park came out in 93.

79
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,040
I'm pretty sure they had a slightly bigger budget then.

80
00:03:42,220 --> 00:03:43,180
Yeah, but not by far.

81
00:03:43,260 --> 00:03:43,600
Not by much.

82
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:44,000
Some random.

83
00:03:44,700 --> 00:03:46,120
I'm pretty sure it would be a lot more.

84
00:03:47,299 --> 00:03:50,660
Like, even the green screen quality is, like, weird.

85
00:03:50,940 --> 00:03:52,160
Well, I don't know.

86
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,620
I'd imagine there wasn't many schools on CGI in Bulgaria at the time.

87
00:03:55,860 --> 00:03:57,060
I'm sure they were trying their best.

88
00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:58,660
Could have been much worse.

89
00:03:59,000 --> 00:03:59,780
Like, much worse.

90
00:04:00,020 --> 00:04:02,320
You remember that scene with the ship sinking?

91
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:03,900
That was really bad.

92
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:05,780
I think that's, like, the only one where I go, like, huh?

93
00:04:06,540 --> 00:04:10,360
2 minute 20 in where it's just like there's like a ship singing and it looks like a child

94
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:15,560
druid basically. It does like look like MS Paint so. Compared to some of the other stuff that we've

95
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:20,260
watched which is just completely full of CGI it's not that much worse I wouldn't say it's just

96
00:04:20,500 --> 00:04:25,120
completely random it seems but I wouldn't say it's it's horrifically worse than the likes of Black

97
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:30,560
Hole Sun and all that stuff maybe. I don't know Black Hole Sun had some idea behind it. Yeah it had a bit

98
00:04:30,660 --> 00:04:35,880
more of a cohesive style but I'm just talking purely about the actual CGI itself not the

99
00:04:35,900 --> 00:04:41,180
the video overall do you have any general theories about what's going on nelly uh well i genuinely

100
00:04:41,250 --> 00:04:46,700
think that it's probably fever dream that the guys share but if someone actually came out to me and

101
00:04:46,860 --> 00:04:54,300
said oh it's actually aliens doing tests on humans i would not i would i would totally see it like

102
00:04:54,530 --> 00:04:59,760
yeah no it's there the signs were all there we do have the opening shot of the planets exploding and

103
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:04,800
then the two hats sort of fly down towards Earth and land next to them.

104
00:05:05,050 --> 00:05:07,920
So they could be the kind of the implements of this test.

105
00:05:08,260 --> 00:05:09,680
Maybe the hat is the alien.

106
00:05:09,910 --> 00:05:11,640
Maybe it's like it thinks, you know,

107
00:05:11,710 --> 00:05:15,180
because that would be a pretty efficient way to like transport like aliens.

108
00:05:15,750 --> 00:05:17,740
And like they gain control over the people.

109
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,100
And then the rest of the video somehow happens.

110
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:22,080
Meaning Blackstyle.

111
00:05:22,580 --> 00:05:22,800
Yeah.

112
00:05:23,060 --> 00:05:25,460
Almost like you kind of think of the hat as like this,

113
00:05:25,690 --> 00:05:28,500
like almost like a weird sort of alien computer.

114
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:32,500
Kind of like Hal from 2001 Space Odyssey, but just like a hat.

115
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:34,280
Advanced hat.

116
00:05:34,500 --> 00:05:38,200
It would explain the giant eye, the CGI eye.

117
00:05:38,980 --> 00:05:39,940
Yeah, that was weird as fuck.

118
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:41,280
I have no explanation for that.

119
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:43,900
It looks a bit like a sort of Eye of Saruman sort of situation.

120
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,720
So what are you saying is because that's obviously 98 and they started shooting

121
00:05:48,260 --> 00:05:52,120
Marvel Universe 99, they actually got the idea from this video?

122
00:05:52,580 --> 00:05:53,360
Is that what you're saying?

123
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:59,820
No, it's some sort of overseeing eye of this potentially alien race, I guess.

124
00:05:59,940 --> 00:06:07,080
Should we actually have a very, very quick explanation of who the duo are and the translation

125
00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:07,720
of the song?

126
00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:09,400
Because I think we're missing that.

127
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,080
We've kind of barreled ahead of it too far.

128
00:06:11,220 --> 00:06:11,360
Yeah.

129
00:06:11,820 --> 00:06:14,220
It's just to take a step back, take a deep breath.

130
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:15,360
The video is still there.

131
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:17,060
We don't want to, but it's still there.

132
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:22,040
Donny and Munchil were a 90s Bulgarian duo.

133
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:24,920
They were kind of like making both pop ballads

134
00:06:25,060 --> 00:06:28,080
and kind of cheesy, catchy pop tunes like this one.

135
00:06:28,220 --> 00:06:28,940
They were quite big.

136
00:06:28,940 --> 00:06:29,580
They were everywhere.

137
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:33,780
They were kind of known for their visual eccentricity in a sense,

138
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:35,620
especially in the late 90s.

139
00:06:35,860 --> 00:06:38,980
The lead singer is, so their name is Donny Ant Munchil.

140
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,140
Donny is the lead singer.

141
00:06:41,580 --> 00:06:44,140
Ant Munchil is the other guy.

142
00:06:46,300 --> 00:06:47,800
I think he's a music producer.

143
00:06:47,900 --> 00:06:53,460
I think he also does a bit of background singing as far as I know especially Donny he was kind of

144
00:06:53,630 --> 00:07:00,340
his theory is known for his being out there and very colorful as a persona at least what he presents

145
00:07:00,450 --> 00:07:07,260
online sorry in front of people and he does a lot of like kind of colorful and fun in his head videos

146
00:07:08,300 --> 00:07:13,299
everybody knew who they were they were incredibly big and they probably still are and there's like

147
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:21,780
I don't know if they've done anything in the last 20 years or so, but in the mid to late 90s, if you were in Bulgaria, you knew who Donny and Monchie were.

148
00:07:21,850 --> 00:07:29,920
I guess in a way they were almost a little bit revolutionary because there wasn't really any sort of edgy music or lyrics out there.

149
00:07:29,950 --> 00:07:35,100
I was almost probably a little bit too young to understand more edgier video clips at the time.

150
00:07:35,180 --> 00:07:42,840
But just looking back at it now for sort of 1998 in Bulgaria, they were definitely sort of out there,

151
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:48,460
combined with the fact that all of their songs are a little bit cheesy and also really just kind of catchy,

152
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:49,780
made them really, really big.

153
00:07:50,100 --> 00:07:50,940
Were they big and liked?

154
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:52,940
I would say they were very, very liked.

155
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:58,740
I can say for a fact that considering the lyrics of the song, which we can get into in a second,

156
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:07,680
They were national TV and I'm sure they won awards and they were not silenced or censored in any way, shape or form.

157
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:14,760
I don't want to call them like celebrities because in Bulgaria, like a country of 7 million, that's a very, very vague thing to say for people.

158
00:08:15,460 --> 00:08:16,660
But they were very big.

159
00:08:16,850 --> 00:08:19,920
Just the fact that they have colorful, those videos were like in the late 90s.

160
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:24,860
I imagine they were quite big in a kind of younger audience who might have not understood what they were saying.

161
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:27,100
But damn, those colorful videos.

162
00:08:27,700 --> 00:08:30,920
No, but I was just going to say, when you see those dragons, you know, it's pretty catchy.

163
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:32,240
You want to keep on watching, you know.

164
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:33,400
Do I read the lyrics?

165
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:35,380
J-Lo, do you want to take the honor?

166
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:37,380
Also, translate the title.

167
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:39,479
How would I translate the title? Hang on.

168
00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:42,560
Heart of Colored Spots is how I've translated us.

169
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,700
God, so you want me to read the lyrics in English?

170
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:46,220
Yes.

171
00:08:46,460 --> 00:08:47,780
Yeah, okay, so...

172
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:51,640
They're in the Google Docs, so we're not expecting you to do a live translation.

173
00:08:52,180 --> 00:08:54,420
Right, okay, that's going to be, like, really funny,

174
00:08:54,540 --> 00:08:58,460
because it's the first time I've actually really thought about, like, what this song says, really.

175
00:08:58,940 --> 00:09:00,920
So, it starts off with,

176
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,400
Happy old men run along the shore,

177
00:09:03,820 --> 00:09:06,540
and little babies scream sullenly,

178
00:09:06,680 --> 00:09:09,880
and I walk around with a hat of colored spots.

179
00:09:10,220 --> 00:09:15,680
Fat ladies with magnifying glasses like glasses dance pogo instead of rhythm of cha-cha-cha,

180
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:18,740
and I walk around with a hat of colored spots.

181
00:09:19,300 --> 00:09:21,500
Bold uncles in suits of seriousness,

182
00:09:21,750 --> 00:09:23,980
in underpants do something in the grass,

183
00:09:24,380 --> 00:09:27,420
And I walk around with a hat of colored spots.

184
00:09:27,820 --> 00:09:33,460
When I dream of crazy spots, then I jump out and everything gray turns it into beautiful.

185
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:34,820
Oh, it's positive, that.

186
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,600
Priest boldly sniffs some things.

187
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:38,400
What?

188
00:09:39,780 --> 00:09:40,920
The fuck is that?

189
00:09:41,300 --> 00:09:41,740
I don't know.

190
00:09:43,940 --> 00:09:44,860
I should actually say that.

191
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:45,520
I'm Bulgarian.

192
00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:47,400
Priest boldly sniffs some things.

193
00:09:48,780 --> 00:09:49,120
Yes.

194
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,000
God, how the hell did I miss that?

195
00:09:52,340 --> 00:09:55,100
Good mothers beat me children, right?

196
00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,720
And I walk with a hat of coloured spots three times.

197
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,500
So yeah, that's the lyrics of the song.

198
00:10:02,530 --> 00:10:05,080
I like how it's all nice and lovely,

199
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:07,140
but just occasionally just goes, bang,

200
00:10:07,660 --> 00:10:09,200
there's a priest fill of cocaine outside

201
00:10:09,900 --> 00:10:11,000
and my hat of coloured spots.

202
00:10:11,300 --> 00:10:15,780
My big issue, the only issue I clearly have in this video

203
00:10:15,940 --> 00:10:17,180
because otherwise it's a masterpiece.

204
00:10:18,020 --> 00:10:21,060
But the fact that the title of the song,

205
00:10:21,819 --> 00:10:24,360
hat with colour spots on it,

206
00:10:24,700 --> 00:10:26,820
but neither of the hats that we see in the video

207
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,120
actually has coloured spots on it.

208
00:10:29,260 --> 00:10:29,700
Yeah.

209
00:10:29,900 --> 00:10:30,720
It just squares.

210
00:10:31,180 --> 00:10:31,320
Yeah.

211
00:10:31,560 --> 00:10:32,700
They're more like checkered hats.

212
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:33,200
Yes.

213
00:10:33,420 --> 00:10:33,900
False advertising.

214
00:10:34,220 --> 00:10:34,840
It is false advertising.

215
00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:36,500
We should see them.

216
00:10:36,660 --> 00:10:37,980
Back to the lyrics for a second.

217
00:10:38,300 --> 00:10:39,780
The lyrics, when they go a bit dark,

218
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,180
does that make any more sense in Bulgarian?

219
00:10:42,220 --> 00:10:44,280
Is it like a sort of folk saying or something?

220
00:10:44,380 --> 00:10:45,320
Or are they literally just saying

221
00:10:45,420 --> 00:10:46,700
good mothers meet children?

222
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:47,940
No, it's a good pun.

223
00:10:48,020 --> 00:10:48,080
It's a good pun.

224
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:49,560
It's a good pun.

225
00:10:50,140 --> 00:10:51,120
Beat meek children.

226
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:52,860
I'm a bearded out guy.

227
00:10:55,199 --> 00:10:57,080
Priests sniffing some things.

228
00:10:58,179 --> 00:11:01,900
And serious men rolling in grass in their underpants.

229
00:11:02,180 --> 00:11:02,980
It's literally the song.

230
00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:03,640
It's literally the lyrics.

231
00:11:03,900 --> 00:11:06,340
I like the lyric, bald uncles and suits of seriousness.

232
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,080
I like the phrase suits of seriousness for some reason.

233
00:11:09,500 --> 00:11:10,660
No, I don't know.

234
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:11,880
It's literally what they're saying.

235
00:11:12,100 --> 00:11:14,380
And I really struggled to figure out how to translate it.

236
00:11:14,500 --> 00:11:15,500
But it's literally what they're saying.

237
00:11:15,580 --> 00:11:17,540
doesn't make sense in Bulgarian either.

238
00:11:17,820 --> 00:11:18,020
Okay.

239
00:11:18,340 --> 00:11:18,580
Does it?

240
00:11:19,220 --> 00:11:20,840
No, I'm just reading it in Bulgarian now.

241
00:11:21,010 --> 00:11:22,820
Like, I just put the lyrics of it

242
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:25,160
and it doesn't make any more sense whatsoever.

243
00:11:26,140 --> 00:11:28,420
It's like, it's a very accurate translation, basically.

244
00:11:43,420 --> 00:11:44,400
Okay, now going back to the video,

245
00:11:44,660 --> 00:11:46,680
It starts off with exploding planets.

246
00:11:46,990 --> 00:11:49,640
I don't know if you want to reveal that you're a physics teacher or not.

247
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:50,280
Yeah, that's fine.

248
00:11:50,420 --> 00:11:53,620
What do you make of the exploding planets at start?

249
00:11:53,750 --> 00:11:54,700
Does it look accurate to you?

250
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:58,780
Planets don't tend to explode, you know, in general, you know,

251
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:00,820
unless they collide with another planet or something.

252
00:12:01,100 --> 00:12:03,080
That is a pretty weird thing.

253
00:12:03,250 --> 00:12:06,160
So if I just see a planet like explore out of nowhere,

254
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:08,780
I'd probably think like aliens or something,

255
00:12:09,300 --> 00:12:11,640
especially if there's just like two hats flying out.

256
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:15,780
Additionally, like with the amount of speed that the hats would have,

257
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:17,740
they would probably miss Earth.

258
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:21,340
So this seems, you know, deliberate that they landed there to me.

259
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,140
Maybe the hats are going from planet to planet,

260
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:25,600
destroying them one by one.

261
00:12:25,860 --> 00:12:26,300
Oh, yeah.

262
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,580
And this kind of feeds back to Nelly's idea of it being away

263
00:12:29,770 --> 00:12:33,500
through their defenses as someone who's doing Domain Mochel.

264
00:12:34,020 --> 00:12:35,380
That would be an excellent movie plot.

265
00:12:35,500 --> 00:12:37,460
Maybe they don't actually see the hats.

266
00:12:37,860 --> 00:12:40,520
Maybe they just exist, but they can't see them,

267
00:12:40,610 --> 00:12:41,560
like no one can see them.

268
00:12:41,680 --> 00:12:45,340
Or maybe Donnie Munchio can't see them, but everyone else can.

269
00:12:45,620 --> 00:12:47,500
And they'll be like, those guys are weird.

270
00:12:47,950 --> 00:12:48,620
Stay away from them.

271
00:12:48,970 --> 00:12:51,020
I don't get how, like, as soon as the hat lands,

272
00:12:51,190 --> 00:12:55,280
like, you see, like, this ghostly figure just kind of come out from the person.

273
00:12:55,560 --> 00:12:59,280
I was trying to understand that when I was, like, watching this video before this podcast.

274
00:12:59,590 --> 00:13:00,740
Does that mean that they're dreaming?

275
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:05,040
Yeah, that was probably the only, well, one of the reasons why I would think they're dreaming.

276
00:13:06,180 --> 00:13:08,140
What was the term?

277
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:09,240
Out-of-body experience.

278
00:13:10,180 --> 00:13:10,720
That's the one.

279
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:12,520
They're actually dying.

280
00:13:13,300 --> 00:13:15,760
And that's their ghosts escaping their bodies.

281
00:13:16,540 --> 00:13:18,760
You mentioned lucid dreaming in the show notes.

282
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:23,360
And I have had it where I kind of feel like I'm having an out-of-body experience.

283
00:13:23,540 --> 00:13:25,160
And then I just realized, oh, I'm just fucking dreaming.

284
00:13:25,560 --> 00:13:28,020
Which does kind of feel a bit like you're just sort of getting up,

285
00:13:28,260 --> 00:13:30,340
like a ghost of yourself getting up from your body.

286
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:34,860
So that's how I interpreted that bit at the start to be just them in a dream.

287
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:36,760
Shit, that makes a lot of sense.

288
00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:39,100
You know, I think next time I have a lucid dream,

289
00:13:39,260 --> 00:13:40,480
because it happened really fucking rarely,

290
00:13:40,680 --> 00:13:43,520
I'll probably think, let's see if I can have like the same dragon

291
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:45,880
dancing along in the same tune with old girls.

292
00:13:46,380 --> 00:13:48,200
I feel like I'm missing out on something, guys.

293
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:50,540
Like if you're actually lucid dreaming and having so much fun

294
00:13:50,700 --> 00:13:52,300
and clearly you can see dragons.

295
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:54,780
What am I missing out on?

296
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:55,980
Have you ever had one?

297
00:13:56,100 --> 00:13:56,420
Myself?

298
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:57,020
Lucid dreaming.

299
00:13:57,220 --> 00:13:57,380
No.

300
00:13:57,840 --> 00:13:58,180
Oh, they're good.

301
00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:00,940
Here's a trick because I used to be kind of mildly obsessed

302
00:14:01,260 --> 00:14:02,700
due to Waking Life, that movie.

303
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:03,620
Oh, fuck's sake.

304
00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:07,200
Good way to tell is if you look at your hand

305
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:10,640
and you have more fingers or you have like fractal fingers

306
00:14:10,660 --> 00:14:12,300
spouting off your fingers and shit like that.

307
00:14:12,370 --> 00:14:12,900
That means you're dreaming.

308
00:14:13,030 --> 00:14:13,660
And it works.

309
00:14:13,820 --> 00:14:15,360
I think every lucid dream I've ever had

310
00:14:15,660 --> 00:14:17,260
has began with me looking at my hand

311
00:14:17,270 --> 00:14:19,320
and realizing I've got 65 fingers or something like that.

312
00:14:19,450 --> 00:14:21,640
So just get into the habit of looking at your hands

313
00:14:21,730 --> 00:14:23,040
and eventually you'll do it in a dream.

314
00:14:23,370 --> 00:14:23,840
And there you go.

315
00:14:23,870 --> 00:14:24,260
You can do it.

316
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:26,740
That genuinely sounds like an absolute nightmare.

317
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:29,440
Just looking at my hands, like just fingers.

318
00:14:30,060 --> 00:14:30,620
Just fingers.

319
00:14:30,820 --> 00:14:31,720
This whole thing is fingers.

320
00:14:32,180 --> 00:14:34,280
What worked for me in the end was a little bit different.

321
00:14:34,700 --> 00:14:37,260
But I would basically try and make notes

322
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,400
of what's happening to me when I'm falling asleep.

323
00:14:39,740 --> 00:14:42,900
as in I would just think, okay, now I'm falling asleep.

324
00:14:43,740 --> 00:14:46,880
And then like right between the time when I would actually fall asleep

325
00:14:47,220 --> 00:14:49,460
and not fall asleep, I would almost be like in a half-half state.

326
00:14:49,820 --> 00:14:52,460
So half of it, half of me would be somewhere else basically

327
00:14:53,060 --> 00:14:56,360
and starting to dream and thinking about something like really unconscious

328
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:57,640
or like illogical.

329
00:14:57,820 --> 00:15:00,120
I was falling asleep and then thinking about some sort of a machine

330
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:01,220
or something like that.

331
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:03,000
And the other part of me was like still awake.

332
00:15:03,959 --> 00:15:07,880
And eventually like I just kind of caught myself in a dream.

333
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:09,560
And that was really fun.

334
00:15:09,620 --> 00:15:12,020
Was this fun as seeing dragons though?

335
00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:12,700
No.

336
00:15:12,980 --> 00:15:14,020
I do remember flying though.

337
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:14,880
I remember grass.

338
00:15:15,020 --> 00:15:17,460
Were there any lip-shaped UFOs, anything?

339
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:18,800
No, no dragons.

340
00:15:19,340 --> 00:15:23,140
No weird microphones that turn into like snake type of thing.

341
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:24,200
No bad CGI.

342
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:26,600
I only get them like once or twice a year.

343
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:32,200
But next time I do, I'll make sure to dump the CGI model set 1995 all over the dream.

344
00:15:33,660 --> 00:15:34,120
That is good.

345
00:15:34,180 --> 00:15:35,800
Going on a Dungeons and Dragons adventure.

346
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:42,140
Right at the end, though, there's definitely, like, aliens sort of arriving in Sofia, where I imagine this was shot.

347
00:15:42,380 --> 00:15:42,660
Yeah.

348
00:15:42,980 --> 00:15:47,540
I think that kind of convinces me that it's an alien hat.

349
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:48,820
Like, they want it back.

350
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:51,220
They destroyed the planet, and they want it back.

351
00:15:51,420 --> 00:15:55,200
But if they want the hat back, why did they send the hat to begin with?

352
00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:59,400
Oh, oh, oh, maybe, maybe the exploding plant was a prison.

353
00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:03,520
And they escaped out of the prison.

354
00:16:04,340 --> 00:16:09,660
So the Lep spaceships are some sort of gigantic galaxy-sized alien race

355
00:16:10,210 --> 00:16:13,040
who had a prison planet, and they were imprisoning the hats

356
00:16:13,460 --> 00:16:15,580
because they're clearly badass because they can blow up planets.

357
00:16:15,900 --> 00:16:16,280
Yes.

358
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:18,660
And the end of the video is them trying to get the hats back

359
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:20,280
because they're actually space outlaws.

360
00:16:20,540 --> 00:16:23,980
I think we should totally ask Donnie Wumchill to go on this podcast.

361
00:16:25,420 --> 00:16:28,320
Because I'm genuinely curious who thought about this, this video clip.

362
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:29,480
It's fucking special.

363
00:16:29,980 --> 00:16:30,980
I mean, it is Bulgaria.

364
00:16:31,110 --> 00:16:33,440
I'm sure that I know at least a few people who know them.

365
00:16:33,940 --> 00:16:34,140
Yeah.

366
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:35,320
Yeah, so maybe.

367
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:38,840
But also, I'm not sure if I want someone in their mid-50s

368
00:16:38,900 --> 00:16:41,640
to come and try to explain something from like 25 years ago.

369
00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,240
David, can you guess how old they are in this video?

370
00:16:45,340 --> 00:16:45,840
In this video?

371
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:46,280
Yes.

372
00:16:46,380 --> 00:16:51,080
Let me find a bit of them where they're not blurry or in space.

373
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:53,140
I'm guessing they're younger than they look.

374
00:16:54,439 --> 00:16:55,240
Yes, yes.

375
00:16:56,060 --> 00:16:59,320
They look about maybe mid-30s, late-30s, I'd say.

376
00:16:59,540 --> 00:17:00,180
Yeah, the 29.

377
00:17:00,420 --> 00:17:01,000
29, yeah.

378
00:17:01,140 --> 00:17:02,640
They had a hard paper round, I guess.

379
00:17:04,959 --> 00:17:08,439
I was completely shocked when I realised this last night.

380
00:17:08,589 --> 00:17:09,839
Those guys are younger than me.

381
00:17:10,199 --> 00:17:10,420
What?

382
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:13,880
I guess all the rock and roll lifestyle must have taken out of them.

383
00:17:14,060 --> 00:17:14,900
All the hat wearing.

384
00:17:15,060 --> 00:17:18,339
They are tapping their nose quite a bit in this video, or at least at one point.

385
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:21,020
Oh yeah, that's when they talk about the priest who sniffed up.

386
00:17:21,260 --> 00:17:22,000
Ah, of course it is.

387
00:17:22,110 --> 00:17:22,839
Yeah, that makes sense now.

388
00:17:22,890 --> 00:17:23,020
Cool.

389
00:17:23,900 --> 00:17:26,520
Because I was watching that going like, is that some new cocaine?

390
00:17:26,750 --> 00:17:26,860
Yeah.

391
00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:27,980
Yes, yes, yes.

392
00:17:28,300 --> 00:17:28,640
Yes, yes.

393
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:32,420
Which brings me back to the question of how did that pass through censorship?

394
00:17:32,620 --> 00:17:37,360
Like they were showing this video and uncensored lyrics in like daytime telling.

395
00:17:37,630 --> 00:17:38,340
How did that work?

396
00:17:38,500 --> 00:17:41,300
Would that be a controversial thing in Bulgaria at that time?

397
00:17:41,540 --> 00:17:43,920
Just say some random news presenter said it.

398
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:47,680
Would there be a big backlash about them shit-talking priests?

399
00:17:47,900 --> 00:17:48,700
Not just talking priests.

400
00:17:49,180 --> 00:17:54,820
More just the fact of them talking about coke and drugs and naked men.

401
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:55,680
Yeah, I don't know.

402
00:17:55,820 --> 00:17:57,240
Because like right around the same time,

403
00:17:57,240 --> 00:17:59,060
the band's like, I don't know, Hippodule,

404
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:02,380
who are just like much more like explicit compared to those guys.

405
00:18:02,500 --> 00:18:07,520
You don't have to be a genius to like, well, maybe you have to be a genius to have all the meaning of this song, but you know what I mean.

406
00:18:09,360 --> 00:18:12,660
They don't ever use curse words in this song.

407
00:18:12,980 --> 00:18:17,300
You can sneak a slightly darker thing into a nice cheery sounding song.

408
00:18:17,360 --> 00:18:19,880
I'm sure there's examples of that happening in the UK as well.

409
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:27,860
I think right at the end when like the spaceship arrives, I think this is like Independence Day remake in a way, like a really shit Independence Day remake.

410
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:31,520
Because Independence Day came out like the year before in 1997, I think.

411
00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:36,660
six no six or seven yeah nine yeah so i think they probably thought oh this is really cool let's do

412
00:18:36,780 --> 00:18:42,540
that in sophia with our cgi like the first time you see the lips is coming over the the buildings

413
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:48,760
yeah cgi doesn't look quite as bad as elsewhere yeah the cgi in the real world is in like the real

414
00:18:48,780 --> 00:18:53,500
world sections isn't too bad actually like there's that in there the mannequin which kind of does it

415
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:59,259
what's the term that melts t-1000 is it that one yeah yeah it does the t-1000 thing just mildly

416
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:02,800
terrifying looks good though you don't see it coming when it's just sitting still do you think

417
00:19:02,820 --> 00:19:08,200
that the dragon reminds you of the dragon from shrek i try to tell me the trick also stalled from this

418
00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:15,060
tv show sorry this music video this video clearly inspired most most of 20th century's films into

419
00:19:15,420 --> 00:19:21,640
well to be fair there are also at some point singing on the platform up in there which you know star

420
00:19:21,780 --> 00:19:27,300
wars that's true yeah yeah i wonder if elon musk watched that when he was a kid oh you know he did

421
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,540
You know, he was like bopping his head on it.

422
00:19:30,260 --> 00:19:31,860
Pogging with the old ladies.

423
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:33,660
I think speaking of Star Wars,

424
00:19:33,780 --> 00:19:35,000
there's a bit where they're getting crushed

425
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:36,840
by a kind of spike trap thing.

426
00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:39,020
And it's fairly funny to watch

427
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,200
just because they look fairly unfazed by it.

428
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:43,340
Obviously, because it's probably not really there.

429
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:43,960
What?

430
00:19:44,180 --> 00:19:45,520
Just kind of going, whoa.

431
00:19:46,420 --> 00:19:48,240
What do you mean that it's not really there?

432
00:19:48,420 --> 00:19:50,720
You know, they don't actually stop it as well at the end.

433
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,480
It's just like, the camera just cuts out.

434
00:19:53,780 --> 00:19:55,360
Oh, wait, no, yeah, it's the next shot.

435
00:19:56,660 --> 00:19:58,080
Thank God our heroes are saved.

436
00:19:58,940 --> 00:20:00,720
It's back to Ropey CGI dragons.

437
00:20:00,900 --> 00:20:03,780
I think the dragons are the Ropey-est part CGI-wise

438
00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:05,960
because they do just look like they're out of a game,

439
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:07,220
like directly out of a game.

440
00:20:07,300 --> 00:20:09,900
But more like a 2001, 2002 game.

441
00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:11,000
PlayStation 1 game.

442
00:20:11,100 --> 00:20:12,200
The Dungeons & Dragons movie.

443
00:20:12,540 --> 00:20:14,400
The people making reference to Dungeons & Dragons,

444
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:17,340
the only Dungeons & Dragons I'm making reference to

445
00:20:17,580 --> 00:20:21,660
is that movie from Akamabuchi, 2001?

446
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:23,180
You streamed it?

447
00:20:23,360 --> 00:20:24,160
I'm trying to remember.

448
00:20:24,220 --> 00:20:29,840
it i can i remember streaming it but i think i got drunk enough to mostly blackout is it good

449
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:36,700
slash bad it's uh bad slash worse oh that sounds like right up my street yes oh yeah yeah okay i've

450
00:20:36,700 --> 00:20:42,280
just looked up a looked up a picture and i remember it it has like proper actors in it yeah uh it has

451
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:47,740
jeremy irons and cgi dragons i think jeremy irons was quite good if i remember if i remember it uh

452
00:20:48,220 --> 00:20:52,700
you remember wrong as good as you could be in one of these anyway i watched that tonight that looks

453
00:20:52,700 --> 00:20:58,620
one uh he's very jeremy irons in this movie he's for none but my point is point is when you watch

454
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:04,020
the movie you get to why i keep on making reference to the movie because it's very much like there's a

455
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:08,580
lot of points when i'm like yeah this is this is just out of the movie i took towards the end of the

456
00:21:08,700 --> 00:21:14,600
dungeons and dragons movie it does go full-blown playstation one cinematic cdi i think it inspired

457
00:21:14,740 --> 00:21:19,899
that as well i'm telling you this movie music video is in the center of all fantasy movies of the early

458
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:26,200
notice. So whoever the director of this movie is, you need to face up because so many movies

459
00:21:26,260 --> 00:21:28,480
would have not existed if it wasn't for your genius.

460
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:45,860
To get to your question from the talking points, David, the music video is shot in Sofia.

461
00:21:45,900 --> 00:21:47,040
I've heard good things about Sofia.

462
00:21:47,170 --> 00:21:50,060
You can do a tour of the locations of this video.

463
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:51,120
No, Sofia is really cool.

464
00:21:51,620 --> 00:21:52,540
Well, it is cool.

465
00:21:52,900 --> 00:21:53,440
It's mostly cool.

466
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:56,480
Yeah, I really like all the crazy clubs

467
00:21:56,690 --> 00:21:59,260
and little dives that you can just randomly go in.

468
00:21:59,500 --> 00:22:00,980
We don't really have this in Burgasse, do we?

469
00:22:01,340 --> 00:22:02,780
No, nowhere near, I think.

470
00:22:03,120 --> 00:22:06,000
We have a couple, but Burgasse is a lot more boring in general.

471
00:22:06,820 --> 00:22:10,220
It's a really, really nice place to relax and be calm.

472
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:12,780
So I take it Burgasse is where you're used to from.

473
00:22:13,020 --> 00:22:14,400
Did we mention this before we started recording?

474
00:22:14,500 --> 00:22:16,220
both from the same place in Bulgaria.

475
00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:17,820
We've known each other for a while.

476
00:22:18,340 --> 00:22:21,080
Our hometown is small enough that you either know someone

477
00:22:21,220 --> 00:22:22,700
or you know someone who knows someone.

478
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,300
I think we've known each other for over 15 years now.

479
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:26,220
I was trying to remember this.

480
00:22:26,360 --> 00:22:27,480
When did we actually meet?

481
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:29,060
Because we didn't go to the same high school.

482
00:22:29,140 --> 00:22:30,760
I think you were friends with some of my friends.

483
00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:32,540
Usually how it goes in Burgas, isn't it?

484
00:22:32,740 --> 00:22:32,840
Yeah.

485
00:22:34,300 --> 00:22:35,820
That's the thing with small towns.

486
00:22:36,300 --> 00:22:38,940
People are just there, especially people roughly the same age.

487
00:22:39,060 --> 00:22:41,180
I know the feeling I'm from a relatively small town.

488
00:22:41,180 --> 00:22:42,120
I don't know if it's that small.

489
00:22:42,380 --> 00:22:47,520
We were out with my friend in like a little tiny shop next to the sea called Absolute.

490
00:22:47,820 --> 00:22:50,420
And we're like having beer there or like getting beer from there.

491
00:22:50,460 --> 00:22:51,900
And that's like the earliest I remember.

492
00:22:52,060 --> 00:22:53,720
I can't think of like anything earlier.

493
00:22:53,820 --> 00:22:56,420
That sounds like the most Burgas thing to be honest.

494
00:22:56,660 --> 00:22:58,900
That is, yeah, it's like classic Burgas, yeah.

495
00:22:59,360 --> 00:23:04,780
Yeah, just meeting someone at Absolute going to drink beers on a bench in the sea park.

496
00:23:05,260 --> 00:23:08,020
David, benching is an actual word in Burgas.

497
00:23:08,860 --> 00:23:09,660
As in bench beer?

498
00:23:09,820 --> 00:23:10,780
Yeah, just drinking on the bench.

499
00:23:10,860 --> 00:23:11,640
It's called benching.

500
00:23:11,780 --> 00:23:12,100
That is nice.

501
00:23:12,450 --> 00:23:14,620
Ever since the Rona started,

502
00:23:15,260 --> 00:23:16,520
I've definitely gained a whole new appreciation

503
00:23:16,790 --> 00:23:18,600
for just drinking in parks and shit again.

504
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:19,480
It's great, isn't it?

505
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:21,460
I never understand why we used to do it so much.

506
00:23:21,940 --> 00:23:26,000
It goes beyond age and gender in Bulgaria.

507
00:23:26,230 --> 00:23:28,480
The moment when you can look old enough

508
00:23:28,580 --> 00:23:29,860
that shops will sell you alcohol,

509
00:23:30,220 --> 00:23:31,320
which is around 16 usually,

510
00:23:32,100 --> 00:23:34,720
you're just going to benches and parks and you drink.

511
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:36,500
And there's like adults there

512
00:23:36,660 --> 00:23:39,660
and even like a broad spot going on benches

513
00:23:39,820 --> 00:23:40,560
just to drink there.

514
00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:41,760
It's an experience.

515
00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:44,080
That and also going to the karaoke bar.

516
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:45,700
Oh my gosh, yeah.

517
00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:48,280
That was a whole different story.

518
00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:51,300
To be fair, that's the only like non-Chao-ga bar in Burgas.

519
00:23:51,940 --> 00:23:53,800
And now you have to explain what Chao-ga is, Nelly.

520
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:55,580
Oh yeah, you have to explain what Chao-ga is.

521
00:23:55,740 --> 00:23:56,140
Okay.

522
00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:58,540
You've put yourself in that situation, do it.

523
00:24:00,620 --> 00:24:01,700
So what are you going to explain it?

524
00:24:03,360 --> 00:24:04,400
It's pop-folk music.

525
00:24:05,340 --> 00:24:06,840
It's like folk music with pop elements.

526
00:24:07,220 --> 00:24:07,460
Okay.

527
00:24:07,700 --> 00:24:11,580
I did go, I did look through like classic PopFog videos.

528
00:24:11,580 --> 00:24:12,280
Oh my god.

529
00:24:12,620 --> 00:24:14,680
And one of them was funny enough.

530
00:24:14,700 --> 00:24:15,840
They were quite sad.

531
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:17,680
Like think of Milko Kalejiev.

532
00:24:18,060 --> 00:24:23,060
He's just like a middle-aged man with like a shirt that it's half-buttoned with some naked

533
00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:23,820
cheeks around him.

534
00:24:24,020 --> 00:24:24,860
Just it's sad.

535
00:24:25,060 --> 00:24:25,620
It's not funny.

536
00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:28,260
Did you do the Domenon Monchil songs?

537
00:24:28,500 --> 00:24:29,220
Domenon Monchil.

538
00:24:29,540 --> 00:24:30,500
No, no, I haven't.

539
00:24:31,060 --> 00:24:31,900
I'm just trying to think.

540
00:24:32,260 --> 00:24:32,660
Next time.

541
00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:33,240
Next time.

542
00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:36,120
Oh, have we been to, I'm sorry, J-Lo?

543
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:38,500
We've done karaoke together, haven't we?

544
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:40,860
I don't know, but I used to hang around that place a lot.

545
00:24:41,020 --> 00:24:41,840
To tell memory lane.

546
00:24:42,170 --> 00:24:46,820
In 2009, 2010, in the winter of Christmas, around Christmas time,

547
00:24:47,310 --> 00:24:51,240
there was this time when it was me, my sister, and some other people,

548
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:52,780
and we went to karaoke.

549
00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:54,780
And then some more people showed up.

550
00:24:55,140 --> 00:24:58,400
And then suddenly it turned out that pretty much every single person in the karaoke bar

551
00:24:58,430 --> 00:25:00,480
were people that we all knew.

552
00:25:00,530 --> 00:25:03,480
So the whole karaoke bar was just a massive group of people.

553
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,240
And I really want to say that you're probably there as well.

554
00:25:06,580 --> 00:25:07,820
And I can probably look through pictures.

555
00:25:08,260 --> 00:25:11,040
Did I sing Rammstein?

556
00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:14,480
It's completely possible because that song was always sung by someone.

557
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:17,060
Yeah, that was kind of my repertoire there.

558
00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:20,240
Get drunk, 2 a.m., sing Rammstein, leave at 4 a.m.

559
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:22,980
Sorry, just looking through the pictures that night.

560
00:25:23,300 --> 00:25:25,840
The guy on the left, do you recognize this guy?

561
00:25:26,620 --> 00:25:28,640
Yeah, I think I want to score.

562
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:29,860
Oh, no.

563
00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:31,380
No, no.

564
00:25:31,620 --> 00:25:33,060
Yes, what's his name?

565
00:25:33,820 --> 00:25:35,000
Like, everyone was there.

566
00:25:35,260 --> 00:25:36,400
You must have been there.

567
00:25:36,460 --> 00:25:37,200
Probably, yeah.

568
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:39,440
Did the whole town just come out for the night?

569
00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:40,860
It was like so much, yeah.

570
00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:44,780
The whole town of about, like, five years of, like, age group.

571
00:25:45,020 --> 00:25:47,680
That's not you right in the background to classic season.

572
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:48,220
Oh.

573
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:49,960
Oh, yeah, I was there that night.

574
00:25:50,120 --> 00:25:50,660
Of course I was.

575
00:25:51,500 --> 00:25:51,840
There you go.

576
00:25:51,860 --> 00:25:52,440
Is that you?

577
00:25:52,660 --> 00:25:53,480
No, no, no, no.

578
00:25:53,660 --> 00:25:54,420
Because I was...

579
00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:55,840
Can you see the guy with the white shirt?

580
00:25:56,120 --> 00:25:57,160
I was there with him.

581
00:25:57,360 --> 00:25:57,600
Oh.

582
00:25:57,980 --> 00:25:59,720
Yeah, like, you were in the background.

583
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:00,340
Yeah, yeah.

584
00:26:01,300 --> 00:26:01,540
Okay.

585
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:02,560
That was a good night.

586
00:26:02,660 --> 00:26:04,000
I have some videos from that night.

587
00:26:04,100 --> 00:26:05,420
I don't remember much from that night.

588
00:26:05,540 --> 00:26:09,460
I got really drunk and I spoke to literally everyone and I was very happy.

589
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:11,540
I've had nights like that in Kirkpatel.

590
00:26:11,660 --> 00:26:16,380
There's a pub called McGinley's and there's been nights where I swear to god my entire school year has appeared.

591
00:26:16,700 --> 00:26:16,920
Yeah.

592
00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:19,680
It was just like, oh, we're all here. Okay, let's get drunk.

593
00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:21,040
So maybe we can deal with each other.

594
00:26:38,220 --> 00:26:42,440
I know I often say on this podcast how a music video is something I watched as a kid,

595
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:44,700
but I really did watch this as a kid.

596
00:26:44,980 --> 00:26:46,660
The duo were everywhere growing up.

597
00:26:46,860 --> 00:26:50,000
They were a pure force of nature, if you will, and loved them or hate them.

598
00:26:50,300 --> 00:26:56,360
They were there on national TV singing about Prits sniffing coke and business people having

599
00:26:56,580 --> 00:27:02,260
orgies in the grass. Now this video is not good but it's so fascinating and baffling that all I can

600
00:27:02,330 --> 00:27:07,380
do is recommend it, like really recommend it. But feel free to turn off the sound especially if you

601
00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:11,340
don't understand the lyrics. Unlike Nelly this is the first time I've seen this baffling collection

602
00:27:11,370 --> 00:27:15,140
of images and I enjoyed it. Though I'm fairly convinced by our theory that the video is a dream.

603
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,920
It reminds me of one of those Ropey 90s slash 80s TV shows

604
00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:20,560
where the hero is sucked into a computer

605
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:23,000
and has to win a game of Dungeons and Dragons or something.

606
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:26,140
Imagine the new Jumanji movies, but in Bulgaria in the 90s

607
00:27:26,300 --> 00:27:27,320
and running on Windows 95.

608
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:28,980
And you pretty much got this video.

609
00:27:31,300 --> 00:27:32,680
But yeah, overall, I enjoyed it.

610
00:27:32,700 --> 00:27:33,980
And the song is catchy.

611
00:27:34,120 --> 00:27:36,720
My final point will be a quick one.

612
00:27:37,100 --> 00:27:40,260
First off, it was really nice to just think back

613
00:27:40,460 --> 00:27:42,680
and get transported back into 1998.

614
00:27:42,700 --> 00:27:47,760
Even though I was about eight when I would have first seen that video, I definitely remembered

615
00:27:48,060 --> 00:27:53,900
this song, but I never really appreciated how just that shit crazy the imagery is behind

616
00:27:54,180 --> 00:27:54,340
it.

617
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:55,500
And it's got everything.

618
00:27:55,910 --> 00:27:57,560
So go and give it a watch.

619
00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:02,780
My best moment is, among two, this is the guy who is not a lead singer, looking very angry

620
00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:08,120
at the camera while doing very bad dance moves with a single flowery hair clip in his hair.

621
00:28:08,460 --> 00:28:09,500
It's just iconic.

622
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:12,640
and the worst moment for me is the dancing ladies

623
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:14,400
that were kind of pointless weren't they?

624
00:28:14,540 --> 00:28:16,240
They do have the dragon you know.

625
00:28:16,420 --> 00:28:18,620
Yeah but you can remove the dancing ladies and keep the dragon.

626
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:19,880
You can have the dancing dragon.

627
00:28:20,360 --> 00:28:21,980
That's actually my best moment.

628
00:28:22,180 --> 00:28:24,520
It's just something really intriguing like when you see that

629
00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:26,500
you just want to keep carry on watching right?

630
00:28:26,580 --> 00:28:29,920
There's a shot where they seem to be standing on a bit of rock in space

631
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:33,340
kind of just drifting away just drifting into the cold depths of space

632
00:28:33,620 --> 00:28:35,080
but they're just dancing away like nothing's wrong.

633
00:28:35,460 --> 00:28:36,820
Have you got a worst part?

634
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:38,740
Probably that ship sinking.

635
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:40,800
So at about 2 minutes 20 in,

636
00:28:40,980 --> 00:28:42,100
like this cartoon ship,

637
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:44,500
nowhere else to any of the rest of the video

638
00:28:44,740 --> 00:28:45,640
other than it's weird.

639
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,080
My best moment is about 2 minutes 15 in,

640
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:50,220
Momchill jumps into the other guy's arms

641
00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:51,580
like something out of Scooby-Doo

642
00:28:52,060 --> 00:28:54,180
because he's getting scared by the dragons.

643
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:56,800
I just appreciate the hijinks of that.

644
00:28:56,900 --> 00:28:57,800
They look so scary.

645
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,860
My worst part is the CGI flexing microphone

646
00:29:01,140 --> 00:29:02,840
that's kind of wiggling around in front of their face

647
00:29:03,260 --> 00:29:04,360
for quite a lot of it

648
00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:05,960
because it's just too high up.

649
00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:07,000
It's like covering his eyes.

650
00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:08,800
That's bad microphone technique.

651
00:29:09,340 --> 00:29:11,260
So what's your overall rating, Nelly?

652
00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:12,620
Oh, aye.

653
00:29:12,820 --> 00:29:13,300
Oh, aye.

654
00:29:13,900 --> 00:29:14,420
Oh, aye.

655
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:16,380
Here's a bit of inside baseball,

656
00:29:16,660 --> 00:29:18,440
but my original idea for the conclusion

657
00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:20,780
was that we each say it like yes or no

658
00:29:20,940 --> 00:29:22,080
in our native languages.

659
00:29:22,580 --> 00:29:24,560
So what is yes in Bulgarian?

660
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:24,980
That.

661
00:29:25,420 --> 00:29:27,000
Yeah, I think I put that in the original document

662
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:28,480
and either I didn't put it clear enough

663
00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:29,760
and we just kind of skirted over it.

664
00:29:29,900 --> 00:29:30,800
It just became eye or no.

665
00:29:30,980 --> 00:29:33,340
I don't remember seeing it, but...

666
00:29:33,340 --> 00:29:34,380
If everyone's wondering.

667
00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:37,800
And it's now for me, four minutes of CGI glory.

668
00:29:38,340 --> 00:29:39,520
It's a da for me.

669
00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:40,620
I just really enjoyed it.

670
00:29:40,690 --> 00:29:41,400
I think it's brilliant.

671
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:43,960
It does remind me of Sharknado almost a little bit.

672
00:29:44,940 --> 00:29:46,160
That's a good thing, but...

673
00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:48,080
It's not a good thing, but it's not a bad thing either.

674
00:29:48,300 --> 00:29:48,920
It's a thing.

675
00:29:49,340 --> 00:29:53,160
Yeah, it definitely has that trash, but good film sort of style to it.

676
00:29:53,290 --> 00:29:56,400
You know, sort of that pandemic slash Sharknado feel.

677
00:29:56,500 --> 00:29:58,620
There must have been a similar meeting when they were...

678
00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:01,380
Maybe I'm kidding myself that there was even a meeting involved.

679
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:05,120
But it's like the meme that was flown around there and everywhere

680
00:30:05,140 --> 00:30:09,880
it was like if you ever think that you don't have good ideas remember someone approved shark

681
00:30:10,100 --> 00:30:12,440
canado to be made it's true

682
00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:31,460
first thanks for jello for being our uh our guest host yay thank you very much for inviting me guys
