You want homoerotic subtext, you need to watch Lady General Hua Mulan, a Huangmei opera from the 60s.

It ain't got nothing on the Mandarin one! I actually more or less knew this by heart as a teenager, although the pronunciations would probably be lackluster to native speakers. Got me weird looks by others, but hey, I think it sounds great.

We Swedes have Sailor Moon and Pokémon far better than them, IMO!

Gotta love Phil Collins in Disney movies; he sang in english, german, italian, french and spanish (latin) versions of movies like Bear Brother and Tarzan :-D .

Hah, that's awesome. And oddly hilarious.

See, I am inclined to agree regarding Sailor Moon, but imho the German version of the Pokémon themes is slightly superior. Speaking of which, I should at some point upload that "Zac Efron sings the Orange League theme" video I have lying around somewhere and which I totally did not make myself in Windows Video Editor...
Your version of the Gummi Bears intro song is also among the best.

--- End quote ---
Leaping back a few days here, but in the Church of England despite common belief, what you actually say at weddings is "I will". "I do" is what is said at adult baptisms - which was quite amusing at my baptism, since there were two people being baptised: me, and a boy in the choir. Saying "I do", standing opposite each other, next to a priest.
