Tsinghua teachers and students sang the song L’Internationale in multiple languages to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party...
I've spent the last half hour trying to find the version with subtitles. I love it too! Hexbear's limited availability of older shit is making all my bookmarks useless. This is the band but not the specific performance I'm looking for.
There used to be a comment on the video from a guy with a cyrillic name where he not only translated every verse, but also romanized it, so you could sort of follow along even if you only read english.
It was pretty fun to try to sing along to the Mandarin version, even if it's incredibly hard.
Sorry, they're more like mental bookmarks. I tend to use the save function to save posts on the site that have conversations I want keep to from the comments (like what leftist movies do you like! or what books on china do you recommend?) but then I also search for posts based on the comments that I remember. I totally get the need to archive stuff, it just sucks. Is there no quick and easy read only caching system that could be put in place for posts of a certain age? Sadly my web dev background is all in php so I'm afraid I can't help much. But for instance on an old php based link blog I run I've got a step in the sql_query function of the Post.php page where it md5s the sql query string and then searches if there's a file with that name, if it doesn't exist it makes the query, stores the query result object in a file named for the md5 query, and then I've got a cached version of the post. then I've got a flag in that cache function that lets comments and edits update the query. This way actual activity is the only thing hitting the database rather than every refresh of the page.

I just remembered I shared it elsewhere !
I love how the musician was just saying "... and now for our last song-" when someone in the crowd yelled out "THE INTERNATIONALE".

send me your old bookmarks! I can unarchive those posts.
