Question
Help my sister the vidmaker out, will you? I need to know if choosing a foreign-language song for a vid is a bad thing. There's this really good Jap song that seems to fit Teal'c and my sis wants to make a vid out of it, but I'm unsure of what the viewing public thinks. It's got a nice, strong beat, very warrior-ish, quite fitting for Teal'c. Anyone who answers will be peppered with hugs.

I don't think it's a bad thing at all. One of my favorite music videos uses a German song. I don't understand a word of it, but it's still a great video. *g* And part of the fun of vids is getting introduced to music you wouldn't otherwise hear. I think a Japanese music video would be fun. :)

...is good.

In fact, I wonder why more vidders don't use instrumental/foreign songs. I mean, I've got thing song here that could just be so good for a team vid!

And I hope we get to see this vid soon, the ones I've seen before are just *gorgeous*.

Care to point out that song to me, Meg? I've been resuscitating my love for anime soundtracks lately, just to experience those really good Japanese songs again. I'd love to hear the song you have in mind for a good team vid. :)

Yoko Kanno - Ghost In the Shell - Inner Universe (TV Size)

Yoko Kanno - Turn A Gundam - Moon

Anamu & Maki - Que Sera Sera

Anamu & Maki - I Hate U

Anamu & Maki - makuchi na yoru

Anamu & Maki - yasashisa no koe

See Saw - Hack Sign - Obsession

See Saw - Hack Sign - In The Twilight

Utada Hikaru - Hikari (PLANITb remix)

There's hundreds more but those are the goodies right now. "Moon" has a very mystical, resolute, we're marching on into certain death bravely and tragically.

With little interludes for memory. I can so see this being a great vid. And obviously you and your sister have way more than enough talent to make *anything* work.

I say she should go for it! If all else fails, any Japanese-speaking Teal'c fans out there will be ecstatic. ;-)

Go for it! For me, good music makes the video, not necessarily the lyrics. :)
