Churning through stuff at work in a very satisfactory way, but now I'm zonked, eating leftovers and zoning out on the couch. Zoning out is good for you, yes it is! (OMG, Mary Murphy has infected me with her verbal tics!)
This was the most exciting week of So You Think You Can Dance this season, with three or four performances that were among the best ever (Mia's piece for Kayla and Kupono, Brandon and Janette's Argentine Tango AND their number for Wade) and a solo by Ade that tore the roof off. Wade Robson made this wonderful piece for Brandon and Janette, to Roisin Murphy's song "Ruby Blue." "You are two thieves" he told them, and they ran with it.
Several of us had fun trying to guess which 80s song Mandy Moore would use in her choreography, because she almost always uses 80s music. We didn't guess right, but one of the bands that got mentioned was Adam and the Ants. Wow, that brought back some memories!
Adam and the Ants "Stand and Deliver" sure as heck must have been one of the inspirations for Johnny Depp's Captain Jack Sparrow!
Another song that came us was New Order's "True Faith" and it turns out that the video (1987) is wild!

Jack Sparrow indeed!
I'd never seen that video, but Adam and the Ants brings back memories of a happy season for me. Thanks!
