A Gibson Grabber and a girl with a zebra motive one piece bathing suit...

[Blazer]

Oh yeah, 1989 I was 13 and I was entering puberty and found that outfit that that Girl Harmonica player was wearing in this clip at 1:50 "Quite appealing" 

And oh yeah, the bassplayer is playing a Grabber.


Gosh, has it really been that long ago?

[Dave W]

There was a bass player in that video?

oh yeah, I remember this song
you really had to look carefull for that shot, but it was worth it.
Almost as appealing as the quick shot of the Grabber  (which isn't played on this song at all I guess)

I find some of the camera angles have enduring appeal.

And it did start the Lambada craze, forcing middle-aged white couples to move their hips in a way the Good Lord never intended.

[TBird1958]

 Even if I can't move my hips around like that anymore (I am 50 dammit!) I can tell you all that girl's undies are fun!

Is it possible that you have an accordion confused with a harmonica?  I can understand SOME distraction, but that seems substantial...unless I'm distracted enough that I missed a harmonica.

Well in Europe the small knob variant of the accordion (with the piano like keys) is called a Harmonica.

But we were both wrong here because what she's playing is called a "Bandoneón"

To continue about the Lambada. Here's a song from the anime series Ranma1/2 called "Ranma Lambada" which is actually a pun, since the R and L are interchangable in japanese so it could either be pronounced as "Ranma Ranbada" or "Lanma Lambada"


To translate what they say:
Akane: In our Tendo dojo.
Tendo's: Our home.
Akane: Ranma who went through hard training.
Tendo's: At Juusenkyo
Genma: It's quite a tragedy.
Male Ranma: When ever I get splashed with water.
Female Ranma: I turn female with all the troubles attached.
Tendo's: Akane's fiancee.

Ooooo......Kaaaayyyyy.....

It's all clear to me now.  Or something.

If it were octagonal, would it be a concertina?  I have one of those I inherited from my dad.

So the zebra girl plays with her small knob? That's all I needed to know.

The prog version- where the girls are ------------NOT!
