   I remember seeing that video ages ago and not really getting it - now that I've been adopted into the cult of WAS I have of course discovered it's true funniness.  I still don't think it's one of the best shorts they've done - makes me think of the Mighty Boosh, and then I think they would probably do it better.....

   I'm sorry!!! You know I love WAS and everything they do - it's just that video isn't one of my faves.....I'll go hang my head in shame now 

   OK I just watched it again and i'll give them extra points if they improvised the whole thing, cos some of the lines are great and if they just came up with them there and then, that's genius.

   Talking of their genius lines - I love this attempt at rapping on Nihal's radio show a while ago

    Kerstin, I agree with you that Keith is girlier...the first thing my dad noticed about Keith (besides his grey hair) was how effeminate Keith is.
    
    plus, the bass is much more manly than the guitar. it's simpler (only four strings) and is tuned lower.K is a jerk, P is dreamy, D is steamy and Chris is respectable.

    what a great and simple post, Adrian. I agree. although I wanna say again, that I quite like "feminine" men. ahem. but Chris is a beautiful exception.

    Poor Keith, everyone discussing his manliness or lack thereof! 

    53 degrees video was fun - I would go and see WAS playing CCR covers, that would be cool!

    Reading video was ok for me hearing Chris & Keith, but I couldn't make out the interviewer, but that's usually no great loss...

    Interviewers are so annoying, they should just let the guys get on with it and say whatever they want. 

    There's a great wee bit at the start of the Impatience video on this site where Keith complains about interviewers trying to be funny with them...

    I already asked it on youtube, but does anyone know who that person is on that photo? Chris told me his name, he's an austrian psychologist I think I remember that, but I forgot his name. was too excited back then. and made a fool of myself because I always thought it was bud spencer. haha. oh, the shame.

    Hmm I'm sure that distiction is really hard for any non-native speaker to pick up, although as you say his spoken German is by accounts quite impressive.  I've never heard him speak Spanish though I believe he can do that too.   That is pretty awsome, I'm always impressed by people who are multilingual by choice rather than by accident of birth or circumstance.

    Darn, I wish I had Youtube access right now because I think I have one favorite'd where he speaks a little bit of French.
    
    I'm jealous of his multi-lingual skills. I can sorta get by with understanding Spanish because Tagalog (the most spoken language in the Philippines along with English) uses a lot of Spanish words, but French was tough for me!
    
    I think my favorite fake-accent Chris does is that Australian one he does for the Brain Thrust Mastery testimonials.What's the Word - your next best resource for all news on We Are Scientists
