dance is surely king and when ballet is incorporated it gets an extra star. like this little film by young australian director cale ‘good times’ mason and stylist sarah scaife starring lovely dancer simone kerr. nice color, nice edit, good moves. extra effort would be appreciated in story and maybe a better hair do… but what do i know about hair, you should look at mine. if you’re into ballet inspired clips here’s amelia and another dub davami from previous posts. by xy

do you speak english? “si… prisencolinensinainciusol”
italian pop star, adriano celentano doing prisencolinensinainciusol on RAI tv in 1972. it is considered by many “to be the first RAP song…” and you thought the brothers made that shit up? it’s supposed to be italinglish and to sound english but it’s actually jiberish:
“in de col men seivuan, prisencolinensinainciusol ol rait, uis de seim cius nau op de seim, ol uait men in de colobos dai, trrr – ciak is e maind beghin de col, bebi stei ye push yo oh”
