    or do you find his music too mechanically? Then watch the DancingFlower..

    Not at all. I like his music. I wouldn't want to dance more than a couple of tandas to his music, but I would say that for almost any orchestra.

    Some of my favorites of his: Racing Club and El Rapido.

    Who's Biagi?

    the Rod Stewart of tango music..

    I don't like his music much. He was on to a good thing while he played with D'Arienzo, but didn't know when to stop. His off-beat accents just got sillier and sillier, until they sound as though he was just doing it to annoy. My loss, probably.

    I used to hate Biagi's off accent hectic beats. Then I learned to listen the melody of the songs, and it is just brilliant. I listen to him everyday now.

    It's a lot of his piano embellishments he typically throws in (where they are not needed, IMO), that soured me on most of his tangos. I think I'm not typical though, as a lot of people seem to like his stuff.

    I *love* Biagi the Magic Hands. By far my favourite orchestra.

    you just don't know how to cook them :D)

    You complaint is not something that has ever occurred to me.

    I can't imagine it would be worth the effort. I don't know how hard the couple dancing here were trying, but it got the better of them comprehensively!

    I hope you're just using that video for the song, rather than the performance. Those guys most definitely did not nail it :)

    So, everybody takes the easiest and most obvious solution to a musical problem. Nothing creative or original about that. Looks like a game of musical chairs.
