Madness

Last night Adam Lambert performed the Tears For Fears classic Mad World. This had me searching for the original, which I have heard on '80's radio, but was really too young to have known as a new song. The video includes an exceptional display of New Wave dancing beginning at 1:45, including an amazingly bizarre 40 second solo demonstration starting at 2:15. You have to appreciate the dancer's confidence and tenacity for what is truly one of the silliest things I've ever seen someone do in earnest. More importantly, this will be worked into my 30-second circle dance routine for upcoming weddings. Too bad I couldn't break this out at the Killer B shindig.
