An American in London - Week 5 "Almost Adjusted"

[redsmarties1471]

No you pronounce it thames as in tems..:)

[lewistrundell]

tems is how you pronounce Thames. I know that it seems strange but thats the way it is

[Cooliebear5000]

3:21 Lol, I can't believe there was a sign that said 'please speak up- we're hard of hearing'

[wb5704]

newsflash: there is diversity in america. stop arguing over whether she's "american" or not.

[mrmattJingo]

la vie en rose - Louis Armstrong

[Mark86Co]

@worldismarble That thing you said about saying "Cheers" I do that all the time I don't know why or how it even came about because I'm sure people used to say "Thank You" or "thanks", they probably do, but for me "cheers" is habit

[schmagum]

3:25 That's Foley Street! The pubs you passed are the King & Queen and the Crown & Sceptre. I've been there many times.

[Gavestonful]

The tune being played towards the end is that of the French song "La Vie en Rose" - trans: The rosy life. The English version was called "Take me to your heart again".

[bigbeeftomatoes]

i got here by searching an american werewolf in london

[fabbii24]

aragog in london!

[MEEEEpo]

Hi, what's the song at the end called ?

thanks :)

[2608adrian]

you are chinesse not american !

[mrmattJingo]

@2608adrian your a dickhead buddy

[2608adrian]

@mrmattJingo

no no no, she is chinesse not american

[mrmattJingo]

@2608adrian she is american!!!

[2608adrian]

@mrmattJingo

she could be an american citizen... but as far as her face is concerned, she is 100% chinesse. she should have said "A Chinesse-American in London"

[mrmattJingo]

@2608adrian no. your just racist man :l shame shame

[ChlorineHeart]

@2608adrian CHINESE. NOT CHINESSE. She was born in America= She's American...

[2608adrian]

@ChlorineHeart

ok

[2608adrian]

@ChlorineHeart

Turkmenistan's GDP growth rate of 11% in 2010 ranks 4th in the world, but these figures are subject to wide margins of error.

[MrNinjaSpartan]

@2608adrian By that logic...white Americans are European Americans. So if a white guy where to ever post a video of himself in London on youtube... he would have to call it "A European American in London". You're retarded.

[2608adrian]

@MrNinjaSpartan

you don't have to argue with me... i understand what you are doing here.. you re trying to help out your rice eating friend. so instead of this you should go take the feathers off that duck in your living room and put it to dry... also you should do something about that union smell in your house... maybe taking a shower... but don't be cheap with the water... you know how "you people" are.....

[MrNinjaSpartan]

@2608adrian "you people"

I'm British and white at that, you've made yourself look like a fool.

[rainaye]

what's the name/band that sings the song from 0:56 to 1:35?

[xASxDragoon]

the river thames is not pronounced 'tames' but 'tems'

[BoyMunkey08]

The River Thames is pronounced " Tems" =)

[crouchingtiger1000]

the tate was a power stason

[samholdsworth]

bah hate the tate its just empty rooms i was walkin through one time n got told off for what i thought was nothing but it turned out that the section off black tiles in the middle of a white tiled floor was expensive art.........?.........okay.

[swannmannbaggywaggy]

The bridge is also called the Wobbly Bridge. When it opened, it was designed to move with people on it. But too many people went over and it disturbed them, so they had to go back, close the bridge and change it!

[ryangiggs69]

It was derelict for ages, lot's of tramps used to sleep in there.

A lot of druggies too, thank God it's all cleaned up and interesting now.

Cheers Mate !

[chris23ace15]

[GweatTeacherOnizuka]

I love your editing style, the music you chose is so entertaining, the singing in your other vids... "Just WOW!!!" and your comedy, I just wanted to say you have made my Christmas Day very very entertaining & fun.

[TorontoTributes]

[worldismarble]

[WatEverMan2009]

@worldismarble Just watched your American in London series and it was fantastic, really enjoyed it and glad you liked London despite our weather. Please tour the world and make somemore vids?

[sherluc]

JONAS BROTHERS? Oh dear... I think they're scary to me. Just because they can control the minds of pre-teens. Okay not really scary but somethingsomething.

You're a pretty good dancer, dude. I can't even whatchumacall do the two-step. Serious.

[worldismarble]

i'm a pretty sucky dancer. my friends tell me that i have potential, but they're just really nice about my lack of skillz :BBBBB

[maggieeex3]

the streets of london don't seem too different from some of the streets in new york.. except for the cool old-looking cars.

ooh ooh i have a question: when someone sneezes, do they say God bless you? or something else?

[worldismarble]
