I guess it's a sky thing really but late night music channel have a person signing to the music vids that appear.

Forgive me but at times it's the funniest thing on tv tbqh! Quite sad I know.

Attached image is just a sample of the wild movements during the songs.

Link is to a short vid taken with my camera phone so sorry about the pisspoor quality but you get the idea. [.3gp extension, Quicktime will play it or VLC should.]

Click here for hilarity and for amusement++ needs volume turned up and go to around 40s into the clip

I also find it hilarious the way, deaf people only come out at night according to these shows.

I find it hilarious how deaf people can listen to music

Everyone knows the deaf are nocturnal creatures.

that's because they are able to sleep through the noise of the little shit from across the road kicking a football around at 7 on a saturday morning.

no, its because in the Uk television stations need to put on a certain Amount of Signned programing, and Its put on at night-time, And is usually Recoreded by the deaf person

Hilarious eh? Did it ever strike you that deafness is not a yes/no state. Many people with hearing impairments have degrees of hearing ability - It is quite feasible that they can catch the rhythm and overall sound of the music without being able to pick up the lyrics.

Chinafoot · 13-05-2006 9:39pm

Saw them do "Yeah" by Usher..

Have to admit, it's quite funny after a night out.

Sure, pick out my post....

All I was saying is that, at first glance it seems absurd. "Radio for the deaf" and all that.

It is quite feasible that they can catch the rhythm and overall sound of the music without being able to pick up the lyrics.

Indeed, now that you mention it, its perfectly feasible.
