Loose Sync

Loose lips sink ships, but loose sync is the shit.

Excellent post by arbitrary_greay about "loose sync":

There are some cases where the performers can be putting their own spin on the same steps and yet still seeming in perfect sync. I like to call this "loose sync," as usually the music for these performances don't have the emphasis on the beat and feel looser

Loose Ships Lip Sync

[koganbot]

Want to title a post "Loose Ships Lip Sync" but can't find any videos that fit. Closest I get are these two:

Sedov Dancing Ships' Waltz in Klaipeda

Tall Ships - Mexican boat singing

Then there's Shim Soo Bong's "Men Are Ships, Women Are Harbors," which isn't really on topic, but it's a good track and a great title, if a little problematic:

And IU does a beautiful version herself:

'Nasty Man' from 1989

Maybe I should check out more of this trot pop stuff from that period.

Ha! Turns out a coupla Beasties covered this.

Any thoughts about the recent incarnation of LPG? I like it a lot. Somehow they feel like the trot version of Boney M, though I don't know if that comparison would make any sense in relation to trot.

I haven't thought much about any incarnation of LPG before - I like the goofy atmosphere but wish they'd ham it up a bit more with the vocals. Maybe add some of those growls the grand old ladies did (and one of the beastie boys manages to feel at home with those affectations).

I guess this is even more recent LPG http://youtu.be/SHp_DdmiY_Q - very odd video. I guess trot can work as sex music.
