Hey, coffee break :)! And since @[sfascia carrozze] accuses me of watching (essentially) unwatchable movies, I dedicate Seduction Surrender to him, from the film Vamp of 1986 (and if anyone remembers From Dusk Till Dawn, just know that those directors and screenwriters took some inspiration from this little film here!) Grace Jones, dancing as Katrina in "Vamp" (1986)

At the moment of the protagonist's first transformation in the film "An American Werewolf in London" (Landis, early '80s) Un lupo mannaro americano a Londra- trasformazione a version of Blue Moon can be heard in the background, almost ironically and in contrast to the dramatic scene portrayed through the director's depiction of pain; I think it's this one SAM COOKE - BLUE MOON

Fela Kuti - V.I.P
Fela brought his music to the Berlin Jazz Festival in 1978, along with all the trappings of his band Africa '70. The structure used by Fela in most of his songs is "responsorial," creating a sort of dialogue between himself and the choir. The song featured in this clip is VIP.
VIP stands for Very Important People, but a VIP is a man too rich for Fela, often in power; the VIP does not see the poor on the street, does not want to see them, and frankly does not care. For Fela, therefore, VIP means Vagabonds in Power, nothing more.

"Him no know hungry people
Him no know jobless people
Him no know homeless people
Him no know suffering people

Him go dey ride best car
Him go dey chop best food
Him go dey live best house
Him go dey waka for road
You go dey commot for road for am
Him go dey steal money

Na "Vagabond in Power"!

Him be wrong man
Na "Vagabond in Power"

Expensive Shit (Yes, Fela Kuti in this song is indeed talking about extremely precious and expensive excrement, referring to a famous incident in 1974 during a raid on his home and his subsequent arrest for possession of marijuana; Fela threw the stuff down the toilet and ate a joint to avoid being arrested again. He was still taken to jail by the police while waiting to fulfill his physiological functions, so that there could be evidence of the drug content in his intestines. But the other inmates "helped" him by substituting Fela's "expensive shit" with their own, so that the next morning the authorities found no trace of marijuana.)
