My favorite Tanz der Vampire bootlegs

 As some may know, I'm a big fan of the musical Tanz der Vampire. I have seen both of the Finnish versions live, and in 2018 I went to see the German version. I have also seen almost all productions of this musical as bootlegs, so I decided to give some links to people who also love this musical. Not all of these are bootlegs since I'm going to link the German recorded version with English subtitles if someone is new to the musical.  

Edit: It appears that the videos do not work on mobile :( So you have to use a computer to view the videos. 


 
The recorded version from Germany with English subtitles. This is the first part, you have to find the other parts from YouTube. If you are not familiar with the musical, this is the version I recommend. 


The Dutch version. This is not a bootleg either, it is recorded version of their musical. Unfortunately this is not the whole show, some scenes are missing and some scenes are from bootlegs.


The Russian version. This is a full bootleg of their version. This is one of my favorite versions and I wish I could see this live.


The Broadway version. This version is just awful. If you are new to this musical, I do not recommend watching this. I only recommend watching this if you are a fan of this musical and want to see something incredibly cringe. This is obviously not one of my favorite versions but I wanted to link this here that you can see this monstrosity.


I cannot put the video here, but here is a link to the Japanese version. It is a replica of Vienna's 1997 version, so Draussen ist Freiheit is the old version, which is the only thing I do not like about this version. This is also one of my favorite versions.


But that's the full versions. Lets see the clips.


Totale Finsternis from Hungary. I saw a bootleg of the Hungarian version and have listened their CD recording, and I really liked their version. This version is okay, maybe not the best, but okay. I hope I will see the Hungarian version in few years.


Ewigkeit from Hungary. This chorus is incredible, and I really like how the actors perform their moves. One of my favorites from this song. This is also not a bootleg, it is officially recorded video.



Draussen ist Freiheit from Russia. This is propably my favorite song from the musical, and the Russian version is just perfect. 


Wenn Liebe in dir ist from Russia. This is my absolutely favorite version of the song. I loved Kirill Gordeev as Herbert and he's easily my favorite actor for this character.


Tanzaal from Vienna. This video has Drew Sarich as von Krolock, and he's one of my favorites. This version is also pretty good from chorus, set and costume perspective. I love the Austrian original version, I wish I could see it live at some point.


You knew this was coming :D This is Totale Firnsternis from the Seinäjoki production of Finland. I saw this version twice in 2011, and I absolutely loved it. This production is still my favorite production of this musical of all time. Too bad this is an audio bootleg.


Die Roten Stiefel & Das Gebet from the Seinäjoki production of Finland. My favorite song from the musical with the Finnish voices, I love <3 This is also an audio bootleg unfortunately.


Woah, this post was long :D But I hope you enjoyed! <3

Circle lens review: I-Codi Colors of the Wind Evergreen

 I have many contact lenses to review and this is my first time doing a review for contact lenses. These contact lenses are from Ifairycon, and you can purchase them from here. 
Please notice that this review is not sponsored.

 

The lenses in case.



Base curve: 8.6
Diameter: 15mm
Water content: 38%
Life span: 1 year


These lenses are easy to insert. They do not stick to my finger and attach my eyes easily. It takes me few seconds to put contact lenses to my eyes, and these were not exception. These lenses are enlargening, propably one of the most enlargening lenses I own. Color is vibrant green and beautiful. Of course my eyes are very light blue, so the color pops out more.
These lenses were very confortable, but please notice that I do not have sensitive eyes, so most lenses are confortable in my eyes. These lenses are meant to be worn for 12 hours and I can easily wear them that long. These lenses have different shades of green in them, which makes them vibrant, and they have also a very thin dark circle around them, which I like, because it gaves them doll-like effect. These lenses also were not dry in my eyes, but I do not naturally have dry eyes.



One lens in. 


Outdoor light.


Inside light. 


Bathroom light.


Older picture of me wearing the lenses, taken in 2019 Yukicon.


The color is 10/10, beautiful and vibrant. I love the many shades of green.

The design is also 10/10, they are very enlargening and give the illusion of bigger eyes.

The opacity is 10/10, as my eyes do not show through the lenses at all.

The comfort is 10/10. I had no problems with these lenses. But like I said, I haven't got sensitive eyes.

The naturalness is 2/10. They are not natural, but that is not what I'm looking for.

The enlargement is 10/10. These give effect of very big eyes.


These are propably one of my favorite lenses. :) Thanks for reading!
