Why couldn't I have been born in India?

The Hindi answer to every bad musician America has to offer:

I wonder what the hindi word for "thriller" is...

I love that first one--I think.

It's so 70's.

Does Columbia Pictures know about it?

*stares* Somehow... that was more disturbing than the original "Thriller"...

Wow.

When you get the second one to sync perfectly with the "Couch Spaz" icon . . . it's a beautiful thing!

I was unaware that Angel from the Rockford Files was such a good dancer.

Just a question about that first video. Is that guy smoking the cigar in the tan suit suppose to be a bad guy? You know, like a gangster? Or maybe he is the dad of that girl in the green dress?

By the way Pec, since we are celebrating bizarre Indian videos, you must see this one

Dude. That was the AWESOMEST video ever.

If I were a chain-smoking gangster type in a cheap suit, and I had some afro'd funkster dance around me like that, I would have given up my life of crime in a heartbeat - just out of gratitude for the entertainment it provided me and millions of faithful Bollywood viewers.

There is a scene in "Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story" (1993) where the directors attempt to bring into focus the struggles that Bruce Lee went through as an Asian actor breaking into the American movie scene during a time when Asian roles in movies and television were mostly limited to reinforced stereotypes such as chinese launderers and the like.

The scene showed Bruce Lee in a theatre watching a Jerry Lewis movie where Jerry avoids some situation by pretending to be Chinese in an over-the-top buck toothed, bad accent kind of way - which solicits a disturbing response from Bruce who wonders aloud if that is how Americans picture the Chinese.

I say, I am reminded of that scene because after watching that first video, I see yet another laughable, but stereotypical image of the typical American.

Rock on you graceless, hairy chested, acrobat, rock on.
