I’ve watched this video a million times and every time I watch it, I’m taken aback by how beautifully this little girl moves. This girl is only nine years old and somehow she’s managed to display strength and grace to a degree that is impossible for most humans. I think what’s especially cool about what she does and how she does it is that there was insane amount of labor and discipline, both physical and mental, involved in making her able to move like this. I think it’s so inspiring that someone so young will put that much work into a something, hopefully, because she loves it.

I’m absolutely stunned. this is so amazing, and she’s only nine! You can tell that she’s using every single one of her muscles to exhibit her passion for her dance. and the song is so pretty! I feel like i’ve heard it before, but i forgot what it was called.

it’s called nostalgia. i don’t know who the artist is, though.

It’s from the soundtrack of the French film Amelie, the song is called Comtine D’un Autre Ete: L’apres Midi (track four): Amelie: Original Soundtrack Recording

And the choreography is soooooo pretty.

“When you create a regulatory agency, you put together a group of people whose job is to solve some problem. They’re given the power to investigate who’s breaking the law and the authority to punish them. Transparency, on the other hand, simply shifts the work from the government to the average citizen, who has neither the time nor the ability to investigate these questions in any detail, let alone do anything about it. It’s a farce: a way for Congress to look like it has done something on some pressing issue without actually endangering its corporate sponsors.”
