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.

I'm aware. :-) But since I've never seen the ep, my brain instead pastes the song onto about three or four different stories in my head, none of which features amputation, but all of which would do nicely as ballets.

(I like my versions better. <g>)

Bah. I like a little bit of amputation in my ballets. :)

Though don't ask me to choreograph one, I'd be stumped.
