Yes, I don't normally do this but... I there anyone around who has the ability to steal Part One of Hanson's tour diary from AOL for me? For some reason It won't let me view it cause of the region I'm in even though I can see part 2 just fine. >< And I really want to see it. *sigh*

Really, I don't even care if somene records it of their screen with a camera or something, I just want to be able to see what's going on in it. xD

Here you go - the original Flash file (so no quality loss). For FLV playing, I like VLCPlayer.

It's a cool clip, I hadn't seen it. Zac and Tay look so couple-cute in their interaction in the last few seconds as it ends. :)

Oh, your LJ style doesn't differentiate hyperlinks very well, but just a note that "Here" off the top is a hyperlink (and so is "VLCPlayer").

Heh! The quality's really nice of both of those clips! The guys look great. I'm liking the Part 2 (here) also.

Yayyy thank you! You're such a star, you know that right? <3

And what the? O_O Ok that was definitely weirdly couplish. I'm not really sure if I get why Taylor touched Zac's arm while walking past him lol... other than for Zaylor-y reasons! :D

Aww! No, *you* are, for keeping my fanfic authoring completely inspired by a steady stream of Zaylor pics, clips, linkage and original writings here on your ElleJay! Not to mention being all-round one of the coolest lives-across-the-ocean individuals we North Americans spot 'round these parts. :)

Gratuitous 90s throbbing, strangely-addictive techno track as a weak tribute:

Awwhhhh 90s music.... gosh that made me nostalgic. I have a soft spot for 90s techno haha. I was listening to some just the other day but I actually forgot about this song. :D

Well, that's cool that you knew it! This was a Canadian group, and the song did well in certain pockets of the US/Canada, but I wasn't sure if it ever charted or anything overseas!

And in reading up more about it, I discovered this track is generally considered "Eurodance" and not "techno". I got my electronica delineations wrong. :( Haha. I don't know my electronic music subgenres as well as I should, I guess.

Yeah I thought it was Eurodance but I generally am a bit iffy on those classifications. It did quite well in Europe (maybe unsurprisingly, since Eurodance was all the rage here in the 90s), played at a lot of my school discos!

Ever heard of E-type? He's a Swedish Eurodance artist, I think he's still around but I loved him in the 90s hehe. Especially this song:



And lol for some reason this song of his makes me think of Zaylor these days:



And I do have to admit that I do still have a huge softspot for Haddaway. :)



And La Bouche :)



Aaand, omg. Lol. I just found so many songs I love. If you are interested I could just zip them all up for you and send them your way. Little best of 90s Eurodance. ^^

*sigh* Why was everything better in the 90s? Nostalgia, nostalgia...

Heh, totally unfamiliar with E-Type. Those two tracks were new to me! That horror-movie cliche skewing in the first was kind of clever.

Kind of funny you thought of Zaylor with the second one! I actually originally had a random thought of Taylor quietly singing/humming bits of "You're A Superstar" to a just-drifted-off-to-sleep Zac when they're cuddled up in bed together and Tay's stroking Zac's hair and tucking it behind his ear with one hand while Tay rests his own head, propped up, in the other hand, lmao.

Haha, the Haddaway I only knew right away from the recurring "Saturday Night Live" sketch involving it (and that got made into the movie "Night At The Roxbury"). There were so many episodes in the Chris Kattan/Will Ferrell era where they were clubgoers who always rocked out to it.



I never knew the "Sweet Dreams" either. Yes, you can send a link to an audio ZIP if you like and I'll throw them on my portable MP3 player the next time I'm setting out walking and exploring the city! I'm big on contrasts so I think it'd be much fun to take an early morning city walk while the city's still quiet, sun just coming up, birds singing and with this Eurodance playing in the headphones. :)

Cool to get an actual European's guide to Eurodance! :)

Gvuyfvehvfvrg. Ok you do realize that that Zaylor image made me melt completely? Good Lord how cute. A little cheesy but cute.

Haha, well, I guess it wasn't the worst place to know What is Love from...

I'll snoop around my Eurodance nostalgia folder today and pick out some favourites for you. There is lots of weird stuff in there. Esp the German's liked to make it well odd. For example...



This song still sort of creeps me out... The contrast between the childish la la la in the background and the dude that sounds like some very dirty old man. It's slightly unnerving and so wrong haha. And yet at the time when it was played everywhere it was constantly stuck in my head!

Oh yes, I am definitely aware of the portion of cheese/cliche factor in my little Zaylor-in-bed vision (and why I was too shy to mention it originally, haha!) but it's still a lot of fun. For some reason I picture them all wrapped up in huge white puffy sheets, comforters and pillows - and each others' arms. Kinda like these generic images (thanks, Google Images!), but uh, replace with the girl with Zac (LOL!). Loved Tay's touching-Zac's-hair gesture from Zac's painting activity recently, so why wouldn't he naturally extend that to bed as a gentle gesture, you know? LOL!






Oh yes, some strange (and interesting) stuff originates from Germany for sure. The (few) Germans I've known have given me some insight on the culture - musical and otherwise - from their opinions. And a lot of German cinema, music or art results from the culture that has certain expectations of behavior and the thought that the reactionary subconscious or psyche to balance that out comes out in interesting ways through art forms.

Awh lol... you just inspired a little story for me with those pictures.

I can definitely picture Taylor being a hair playig kind of type. I wonder if he is hoping that Zac will let it grow a bit again as much as I do... :P

Though I have to admit I rather like Zac's hair at it's current length, it's long enough to fall over his face a little and it just SUITS him like this. I don't really like it properly short, he looks so YOUNG when he has it all cut somehow lol.
