Body Talk: the interactive edition

Well, I tried. I really tried. I so wanted to give you an insight into my quite strange (frankly) creative processes by producing a video of a sexy rumba to the tune of Body Talk, but helas, my lack of expertise and the limits of YouTube prevented me. I DID try to find a video of dancing from Istockphotos, but all I could find were people break dancing or a rather sappy couple stumbling round incredibly slowly and not at all sexily against a sunset backdrop.

So what you have instead, is Bodytalk: the Interactive Version.

Thanks to Loulabelle who sent me to these two rumbas, I give you first, Michal and Joanna, who are the real deal. This is an incredibly sexy rumba and EXACTLY the sort of thing I was imagining for Katie and Rob, only they won't be as good as this. In order to get the right mood, bear with me for a moment and scroll down to my prevous entry and turn on the Imagination YouTube video and then watch the dancing to the tune. You won't get it quite in cync (believe me I have tried) but it does fit incredibly well, and makes me realise that I am barking up entirely the right tree here...






When you've done with Michal and Joanna try the same thing with this SCD couple, James and Ola. Only here, do make sure you turn the sound down so you don't get sappy Westlife singing... It doesn't work quite as well, but there is something sublimely surreal about watching Westlife singing in the background with an entirely different song going on...




I've just tried and realised that this video suffers from a surfeit of Westlife and a dearth of dancing, but c'est la vie.

Oh and many thanks to Loulabelle for putting me onto both...

Glad the rumbas helped!
