apropos of absolutely nothing

I would pay money to see somebody choreograph a contemporary ballet pas de deux to the song "Gaeta's Lament" from Battlestar Galactica. It would be a beautiful adagio, morphing into something huge and powerful when the drums kick in. Alternatively, do it on ice, with some really athletic side-by-side and throw jumps at the end.

I never had it in me to be a professional dancer, but there is and always will be a choreographer living in a back corner of my head, drafting movement to the music I'm hearing.

By the strangest coincidence, I just watched the episode where Gaeta _sings_ "Gaeta's Lament," and then anghara posted the instrumental version in her blog and I was listening to it as I read your post! omg - it would SO work as a figure skating dance routine. Or some kind of interpretive jazz...

I've actually never seen the episode in question, which makes it funny that I've fixated on the music. But yeah, it's gorgeousness incarnate.
