[itagui11]

I love the art of this video. I have a YouTube playlist called art in music videos, and your video will be included. Very nice.

@itagui11 Thank you so much Itagui! It is an honour to be part of your art collection!

Wowwww! Love this. Was just searching for the original Oils vid and unearthed your gem. Great song, still holds a lot of resonance despite PG's big sell out. Your strength and balance in your interpretation are fantastic. Aussie talent this Straya Day...., yay!

[RoToSherman]

@FesterFumble Thank you FF, I thought it was a great song even before I knew what it was about.

"Steel cawl aStraya hoym!"

Hope you have a good day

[milenna1992]

ohhh you are dancer i thought you made this playfully , good tribute ! :)

[RoToSherman]

@milenna1992 Thanks Milenna! Yes, I am a dancer, and this was a playful dance - you were right! I don't rehearse or choreograph any of my dances - for most of them the song was chosen about 1 minute before the dance begins! Love

[milenna1992]

@RoToSherman yes! keep the good job , and you'r right, the art is the best way to know yourself ,whether in dance ,music , paint etc. Good luck :)

[milenna1992]

haha you are crazy  , but it's cool

[sherieryan]

Good Try, I find you still too loose or perhaps rhythmic flow is a better term. Don't despair though you are very close. I think you should put up a whole lot more just like this and keep up the practice, entirely for my viewing pleasure :P

[RoToSherman]

@sherieryan Hahaha, thank you Sherieryan! Yes, I don't think I'd pass for a Peter Garret impersonator, but it was a lot of fun doing this dance. If I did another it would likely be to "Beds Are Burning". I'll let you know!

[RoToSherman]

@Sedgey33 Thank you! That is an excellent score!

[adccdaweed]

why are you nude o.0

[RoToSherman]

@adccdaweed Am I nude? Look closely if you dare...

[KaelHighriver]

Ok. You are cool. Try wearing pants next time though.

[RoToSherman]

@KaelHighriver Hahaha thank you KaelHighriver, and yes, I was trying to stay cool - it was Summer, 35deg Celsius!

[KaelHighriver]

@RoToSherman I'm in Australia. Summer here is 45 degrees. ^^

[RoToSherman]

@KaelHighriver Yes, on those days you will not find me dancing. You will find me lying on the ground in front of a fan, with a wet towel over my neck!

[LittleRedTedSaid]

excellent!! :D did you dance in yer daks because it's something to do with how ballet dancers wear tights to show off the beauty of the human body?????

[RoToSherman]

@LittleRedTedSaid Thank you very much! There's a few reasons I dance in my daks. One is that I'm forced to have a sense of humour about my dancing. Another is that I'm a superhero, and I must wear this costume to hide my secret identity. Shhh :D
