Answer 1

Que angustia trae la mujer en el vídeo. El Tango es uno de mis favoritos en cuanto a verlo bailado. Por lo que sepa yo de los bailes demás, es el único en que se demuestra enojo y amor de passión a la vez. Me encanta bailar, pero desgraciadamente nunca he llegado al nivel del Tango.

What anguish the woman in the video has. The Tango is one of my favorites as far as watching it danced. From what I know about other dances, it's the only one that shows anger and passionate love at the same time. I love to dance, but unfortunately I have never reached the level of the Tango.

Es verdad, te transmite la angustia... Me encanta el baile de Al Pacino en Perfume de mujer, bailan "Por una cabeza"... otra belleza! Puedes verla acá: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Py9JcjGtfSg - Benz, Feb 8, 2010

¡Oye Benz, gracias por el enlace! Curiosamente, he estado pensado ultimamente de ver esa película de vuelta. Se me hace que "Por Una Cabeza" también sale en la primera parte de "La Lista de Schindler." - 005faa61, Feb 8, 2010

No me acuerdo si Schindler, pero hay una de Schwarzenegger, me parece que es True lies... - Benz, Feb 9, 2010

Poruna cabeza en "La lista..." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6FOUTWbu5WM y en la peli de Schwarzenegger: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=It8IEGoLyKo - Benz, Feb 9, 2010

Answer 2

Awesome! thats cool bro!

Answer 3

Who wouldn't love such a combination of intensity and sensuality?Never did it or saw it live but the few views on the screen I have seen convince me of why people would devote themselves to this dance.

Answer 4

Don't know how to tango, would love to learn.

However I will definitely learn when I go to Buenos Aires, sometime in the unforeseeable future...
