I love the rhythm of life.

I feel it in my bones.

Sweet Charity!

Faith and Hope too!

Flap your wings and fly to daddy.

ok, here's a blast from the past. I had totally forgotten about these two, but they were huge at one time.



if my guess is right, that last video in the playlist is based on coreography for Boulevard of Broken Dreams (Gigolo and Gigolette) possibly originally from the original moulin rouge? Anyone know?

another example...



(and by the way, get ready for a Mina playlist in the audio zone soon)

It's a comic riff on a Parisian Apache dance:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_(dance)

The dance is sometimes said to reenact a violent "discussion" between a pimp and a prostitute. It includes mock slaps and punches, the man picking up and throwing the woman to the ground, or lifting and carrying her while she struggles or feigns unconsciousness.
