I'm a music nut, and I'm always on the lookout for nifty stuff to listen to. Sometimes, though, what I'm looking for is...hard to find.
There used to be a show called Bluetorch TV that featured info about skating, boarding, bikes, etc., and often had stunt reels set to music.
One I remember to this day: the song was essentially a rap revision of "Anything You Can Do, I Can Do Better"...except it was "Anything I Can Do, I Can Do Better" and was all about the drive to self-improvement. The video had one extremely cool feature- while the bike and skate stunts were going on, they had an inset of a balding white guy doing the rap's lyrics in sign language...even capturing some of the scratches & breaks accurately.
At least, at first...
As the song continued, the ASL aide begins to pop 'n' lock, robot, spin and generally unleash a bunch of old-school break-dancing moves as his inset circle grows, supplanting the stunts and relegating them to the background.
I captured this on a VCR tape when it first aired, but cannot find said tape at this time. And so far, my google-Fu has failed me.
So I ask: anyone know this clip or have any ideas where/how it may be found?
