The Russian Vector

The (first) random posting ever!

Na-Na... the epitome of what boy bands really are. Twenty-somethings who dance and sing around a stage, usually with some suggestive clothing and deliver their singing and physical prowess to those who surround them on stage. Boy bands were really the thing in the late '90s, early 2000s and in Korea, still are (see K-POP). 

Regardless of what you think, they can sing (if it's live, I'm not sure) and sure dance. They may not be able to play a single instrument... but their performance says it all.

This band predates 'N SYNC about a year or so ('N SYNC, 1995), and in post-Soviet republics, it's like seeing an adult movie for the first time, but with clothes on; same amount of sweat, though.

Now with today's random-as-hell-filler post, is the Russian boy band Na-Na with their twist on the Russian folk song "By the Long Road," featured here about three months ago.

Pay attention to the guy sliding when the video starts and how he's grabbed by the audience.

"I'll Never Be Your Woman"

Alright, this is the last post concerning those damn AmazonMP3 credits. I spent the last of them this past Friday, along with incurring a debt of 63¢ on a debit card. I learned it's hard buying three songs for $2.04.


Out of three I bought, this is one I've heard before, or at least, the introduction. And its lyrics are a bit cryptic (like moi) but I just listen to the melody and sound, not the lyrics. Anyway... it cost .69¢ and allowed me to buy another two songs (that I've featured here and here on this blog), so I guess it's all good?


Anyway, for Sunday's listening pleasure, from the one-hit-wonder of the one-man-band, White Town, from 1997, is "Your Woman."
