I guess this has been long over due, but here it is anyway. I rarely find myself liking the auld modern pop music thing, but I was drawn to this song when it came out. I liked it, it was just one of those things. Then I saw the video for it and instantly fell in love. It was amazing! There was just so much "ballet" about it; the costumes, the setup, the performance... There was also a great "Jackson 5 - Can you Feel It" vibe about it with the way the sound effects were added just for the video. Yes it was homoerotic, but I guess one could say that about any ballet involving only men.
I later came across an alternative video for the track(embedded above) which goes even further along with the homoerotic ballet imagery. I'm not sure if this is an official edit, it looks "fan made" but I'm at a loss as to what the original footage would be from. Either-way, I love this version also. The whole "gay-thing" might be too much for some people, but I doubt they would have the same problem if it were two women :-\
Look past your prejudices and become a better person.
