The First Video of the Week for the Jan.01 - 2016 through Jan. 08 - 2016!

     For this first week of 2016 - we picked a vintage vid by Dr. 240252 - posted on Dec. 31 - 2015 - titled Foxtrot "Rozsi"(a Hungarian nickname for a ladies' name - Rose) - composed by Markush - a famous Hungarian composer who also wrote a well known Tango (I Was Only a Joke to You) - but arranged by a famous Warsaw composer, arranger and a brilliant musician - Henryk Gold who from 1925 through 1939 - shined as a big star of Warsaw's magnificent musical scene. He was one of the few who escaped the Nazi massacre of the Jewish artists and others as well.
     Warsaw - a cultural mecca of gigantic proportions - was decimated by the Nazis who worked "in cahoots" with the Red Soviet - Communist butcher - Joseph Stalin.

     At any rate - the visuals - bring you excellent snapshots of sparkling New Year's Eve celebrations in Warsaw circa 1927. The comments under the video - are also - well worth reading!

    Wishing you a great first week of 2016 with the Healthy and Happy 2016 - to follow! Absolutely do not forget to click here next week!

The Youtube video of the week - Dec.22 - 31 - 2015 - Polish Tango 1935 by 240252.

       This week - will be the last one for 2015 - Dec. 22 through - 31 - we strongly recommend a totally fabulous old Tango posted by 240252 on Dec. 15 - 2015 - titled "Polish Tango - 1935".
       It was composed by a well known Tango composer Artur Gold with the lyrics by a famous Warsaw lyricist - Andrzej Wlast - who also produced tons of top notch musical revues - which prominently featured a lot of Warsaw's finest singers, dancers, musicians - circa 1930 - 1939.
       The lyrics shine with simplicity - but they can resonate with tons of people. I hope that Google translation services will do them justice. You can still enjoy the marvelous music and a lot of excellent comments by the video producer - 240252. Yours truly also made a comment which you might like - not boasting or anything - mind you.

        At any rate - with the holidays - upon us and the New Year's Eve - right behind them - all of us here - wish all our numerous "clickers" - a totally fabulous Holidays 2015/2016 and very Happy New Year - 2016 - to follow!

Our Commentary on Youtube Video of the Week for the third week of Dec. 2015 - from Fri. Dec. 15 - 2015 till Fri. Dec. 22 - 2015!

          For our commentary this week - we chose a Polish Tango uploaded by Dr.240252 on Dec. 6 - 2015 - titled "Give Me Your Pale Lips" - composed for the Warsaw Revue titled "Toys for Warsaw" from 1929. At that time - Warsaw had tons of exciting venues - full of talent of all kinds. The splendid orchestration was performed by the famous Polish/Jewish composer/arranger - Henryk Gold enormously talented - celebrated and famous - in Warsaw circa 1929 - 1939. He was one of the few who escaped Hitler's - Socialist Nazis' - massacre. Before the Second World War's beginning with the Germans attacking Poland and Warsaw in 1939 - Warsaw was a rich cultural mecca - boasting many artistic achievements of all kinds thus Warsaw maintained a well deserved reputation of a "Paris of Eastern Europe".
         The visuals will give the viewers a snapshot of Warsaw movies and cabarets' scenes which flourished in Poland from 1929 to 1939. The commentary researched superbly by Dr.240252 always gives the audience a lot of interesting info. My favorite section is - usually - the viewers' comments which are answered superbly by Dr. 240252. One can learn a lot in an easy way - without any extensive studying.
       Our team here - hopes that all of you are having a nice holiday season 2015/2016 and all are enjoying the festive atmosphere of the winter holidays - without any special stresses - notwithstanding the national and international news which can - at times - be depressing.
      Have a great week - everybody - and don't forget to click here - a week from today - same channel - same time - for our next Commentary of the week!

Youtube Video of the Week - Dec.8 through Dec.15 - 2015.

       For this week - we choose a humorous vid by 24025 titled "Paul Whitman - Hot Lips" uploaded on Dec.1 - 2015. You will see funny shots of various lips - in action. The band's arrangement sounds top notch but the visuals will - most definitely - make you smile.
       All of us - like the "contraption" to put the lipstick on - which - thank God - was not patented or widely distributed. It's nice to have a light moment while watching this vid - since the week was full of dramatic, heavy news items of every kind.
       At any rate - let us know your views regarding our choice of Youtube's video of the week.

       Have a great second week of December - in which - hopefully - all or most of your Christmas shopping is getting almost done so you can enjoy the season!

       To all our friends celebrating Chanukkah - happy Chanukkah 2015 to you and yours with Chanukkah lights shining bright in your menorahs and in your lives!

Youtube's Video of the Week - Thanksgiving Wk. - Nov.23 - Nov.30 - 2015.

      Okay - everybody - now that the Thanksgiving weekend will end soon and all of us ate enough turkey to last us for a full year - we need to jump on Youtube - every weekend - until the DWTS comes back March 21 - 2016.
     My most favorite Youtube website - where we frequently put our weekly comments - you will find using the following info: my Youtube name is Tango3721 - and my favorite website where we comment the most - is 240252 - the Youtube name of the talented producer who uploaded more 2 thousand videos in the last eight years. That producer of those informative and entertaining - a few minutes long, little uploads - is an extremely erudite - Eastern European physician with a total command of English, French, Polish, Spanish, Italian.
    After you watch a few of his short "productions" you will easily enter the world of the supremely talented musicians (mostly jazz and pop but some classical artists as well), vocalists, some ballroom dancers, movie stars and so on.
    His short commentaries give you a wealth of info in an easy way. However - what we are in awe of - is the fact that 240252 - frequently emphasizes the creativity of some forgotten or persecuted artists - who nevertheless - gave the world tons of beauty enjoyed by a lot of people but - unfortunately - the creators - themselves - couldn't share in the "rewards" of their outstanding talents - due to their - at times - unhappy - circumstances happening at the wrong time of their lives.
    For this week - click on this week's vid - by 240252 - titled Bert Firman - Positively! Absolutely! You will find our comment there as almost every week - but you will also discover that Bert Firman - lived a happy life with several successful careers to his credit.

    Have a great Thanksgiving week and click here next weekend for another video of the week!

A Conclusion to the finals and the Mirror Ball Winner announced - DWTS - Season 21 - Tues. Nov.24 - ABC.

     So - listen - everybody who watches DWTS - like religion - we have looked through the viewers' forums and we have some good news and some so-so pronouncements. We always try to emphasize the up-beat, optimistic stuff - to hold us over until the new season starts on March 21 - 2016.
    The set designers and the costume people did an absolutely amazing job on the final show on Tues. Nov. 24. As far as the hair people are concerned - they did okay since most dancers looked glamorous. The minor exceptions would be - Mon. Nov.23 - 15 - Erin Edwards - the M.C's hairstyle didn't go with her shiny, evening gown because my little goddaughter commented that her hair looks like a "nest of some bird" - however on Tues. Nov. 24 during the final show - Erin's hair looked fine for a change - even if her comments to a contestant Victor Espinoza - sounded rude - but who is being "catty" or anything like that?
    Wendy Williams - a popular talk show hostess announced that Erin Edwards and her lawyers won - 75 million dollars judgment stemming from her being videotaped nude without permission while she was taping a sport story for CNN in Nashville,TN - while she worked her regular job - a few years ago. She must like that job - however - since she "plugged in" her "other job" - last night.
     Back to the DWTS finals - Bindy and Derek won but our favorites - Sharna and Nick came in - second. We are very happy about it. Hurray!!!

     All of us are waiting for the next season of DWTS - which starts on March 21 - 2016. The veteran judge Len Goodman will be back! He is currently judging a British Ballroom dance show - "Strictly Come Dancing" which is a Daddy of its American version - DWTS. 
    We will all have a great winter and until March 21 - 2016. Keep reading and clicking this post for super sparkling comments - not boasting or anything like that.

    Happy Thanksgiving and the Holiday Season to all!
