Oh, yeah . . . I had those videos to put up, in a kinda sorta stream-of-consciousness order . . .

First, here's Little Jodie Foster doing a Serge Gainsbourg song with Claude Francois on a French variety show sometime in the 70s - the original was by Gainsbourg and Brigitte Bardot, and when I saw the title I expected that Foster would be doing the Bardot part. Nope. Here's "Comic Strip:"



(and HERE's more of Foster on that show, doing a solo number, shot in classic William Shatner, "Rocket Man," 70s variety-show-style, though without nearly as much cheese)

And from the first thought ("songs in foreign languages") we move to the next one ("songs in foreign languages with subtitles"), with this song in Flemish from a Belgian kids' show:



(oh, right, I didn't say the subtitles would be accurate, now did I?)

And continuing along that "inaccurate subtitling" thought, Hitler has some car trouble:



(this original video led to another video that is funnier - if you follow video games at all - but has already been linked to and embedded everywhere, so I went with this - if you haven't seen the sequel, follow the link . . .)

And continuing with the fine theme of Hitler humor, who else but Mel Brooks knows how to find the yuks in Nazis, with this video that actually wound up "banned" from most TV in the USA when it was released to tie in with his To Be Or Not To Be movie (I have it on Beta tape somewhere from when it was shown in the USA Network's Night Flight, surrounded by warnings that it might be "offensive"):



Enjoy.
