The thumbnail pic had me do a double take. Then I saw it was an actual video.

Where'er You Walk G.F. Händel

Lady Writing a Letter with her Maid Johannes Vermeer

Painters had it bad. Funny how what we now see as "golden age" creativity was mostly born out of sheer necessity.

The video is for a tune that was meant to throw Italians a curve ball:

Quote:

The song is intended to sound to its Italian audience as if it is sung in English spoken with an American accent, vaguely reminiscent of Bob Dylan; however, the lyrics are deliberately unintelligible gibberish with the exception of the words "all right".[1] Celentano's intention with the song was not to create a humorous novelty song but to explore communication barriers. "Ever since I started singing, I was very influenced by American music and everything Americans did. So at a certain point, because I like American slang—which, for a singer, is much easier to sing than Italian—I thought that I would write a song which would only have as its theme the inability to communicate. And to do this, I had to write a song where the lyrics didn't mean anything."

Think you just threw me a curve. You, of course, were referring the Celentano tune, not the Händel aria, yes?
