Aborigines dance to "Zorba": What song from another culture gets you dancing?

Afrikaans sing-a-long.

Medley of Afrikaans favorites by Jacques de Koning.

"My Sarie Marais":

I see your foreign truck driving and raise you two russian girls in a truck!

I love Enigma I find it to be very rhythmic and stirs something in my legs to shake around lul.
It sounds like Native American singing/chanting but it is in fact aboriginal Taiwanese chanting (it is beautiful).



And of course the Gregorian monks chanting sounds amazing and primal.



Basil Poledouris made an INCREDIBLE score for Conan that has to be one of the all time BESTESTEST movie soundtracks ever. This song in particular makes stand up and swing my gigantic Tachi reverse handle katana around my apartment like a raging beserker dance of death! Lol dance comes in many forms

Classic scene ending in music: "The Killing fields".

I sometimes wonder what that means: "This is not a love song".

I love drumming music, and on a long night it keeps me going, long after words fade.
I have a variety of Native American CDs, but my favorite on the web must be the Black Lodge Singers.

The sheer amount of fun and mirth, and ironic humor aimed at the establishment is amazing.
Here they sing: "Old McDonald had a farm" live:

I wish that one day, in my life,
I can have the privilege to sing along with that.

The Hassidic Bottle Dance.
New Brunswick, 2007.
Amazing stuff.

Well as far as the bottle dance goes, the first part looks very simple.
However, I would not advise anyone to begin dancing to this song!
Medical bills may follow.

Now this dance definitely takes some practice!
Dancing Rabbis.
Eventually an acrobatic performance piece turns into communal dancing.
I somehow doubt most Western people have ever seen this, which was once a common tradition.
It was the first time I saw this tonight.

Absolutely amazing dance in the above post.
I wonder if anyone could tell me how one can start learning this.
Does one first learn basic steps, or first the acrobatics and mime?

First two that came to mind.
Weird, Huh???





I would seriously go Russian for her.....




Play this going down the street for maximum effect......

When Worlds Collide

Actually I used to watch LINK TV a lot. They show videos from around the world. I liked a lot of them.

Don't have LINK TV on my current cable.
