Wakey, wakey! It's Monday again...
After a weekend that saw Madam A and I in Cadogan Hall for a performance of Fauré's Requiem, followed by a day of basically monging-around - because the fine weather on Saturday turned to utterly dismal rain yesterday - it's all over again, and off we go to the hurly-burly of another working week...
Sigh.
Thank heavens, on this Tacky Music Monday, for our long-time house faves here at Dolores Delargo Towers, the Kessler Twins!! [...and their safety gays, of course...]
Have a good week, dear reader.
Oh, those bitches. I remember them appearing a while ago (probably here) and one commenter describing them as having rehearsed "almost enough." It's interesting to see where Abba got their one-profile-one-head-on pose.
ReplyDeleteThis was a particularly clunky routine, I must admit - good observation about the "sideways heads" pose... Jx
DeleteThe Kessler Twins had a surprisingly good sound (especially on Mas Que Nada), but oh those costumes and that choreography. I wonder what future generations will be saying about our current trend of crotch-grabbing choreography.
ReplyDeleteEvery generation has something to say about previous generations' dance routines... Jx
DeleteFuck Monday.
ReplyDeleteThe only thing waking me up today will be two Brazilians in the shower with me.
Lucky you, I say!
DeleteI had a "Blackpool breakfast" - coffee and cigarettes... Jx
I'm familiar with that song! I never knew who it was by though. It makes me think of the Austin Powers movies which we enjoy. Have a good week, Jon!
ReplyDeleteIt's a classic Sergio Mendes number - see here for the original, and I love it!
DeleteThe one that's indelibly associated with Austin Powers is Quincy Jones' Soul Bossa Nova - here. Yeah, Baby, Yeah! Jx
Cool! Thank you, Jon!
DeleteDe nada! Jx
DeleteLes charmantes sœurs Kessler sont de renommé internationale mais pas tellement dans leur pays d'origine, les États-Unis.
ReplyDeleteC'est amusant à quel point les danseurs sont gays.

Yet they had a "resident" slot on the Ed Sullivan Show, from whence this clip came... Jx
DeleteOMG I love the Kessler Twins.
ReplyDeleteThey are they are the epitome of being so awful they are fabulous!
It's the sheer unease on their faces as they try to synchronise - gets me every time! Jx
