My name is Tina Roth Eisenberg. I am a 'swiss designer gone NYC'. swissmiss is my visual archive of things that 'make me look'. I am a graphic designer and run my own studio in Brooklyn. Contact me if you would like to team up, have a link suggestion or just want to say hello: submissions {at} swiss-miss.com.
Simply sensational! I've known this video for quite a while now but watching it never fails to delight...!
I'm never sure whether I should be embarrased or not that such a violent form of expressional dance actually existed here in Germany but then again...naaa. It's just great.
Unbelievable moves by unbelievable people... :-)
It's actually an outtake from the 70ies of one of our most favourite and still running sports shows called 'Das aktuelle Sportstudio'. They hired a special 'color designer' to design some alternative jerseys for the German soccer league.
Contrary to popular belief the dancers are NOT German soccer players!
OMG they're dancing a Brazilian song!! The singer is asking for the blessing of several African gods (some African religions are very popular in Brazil). Nonsense! I can't understand a single word in German, but the song was enough to make me LOL. Thanks!
@Torben - kaum zu glauben aber "Netzer" war auch mein erster Gedanke...
...und sofort habe ich mich an mein Königsblaues Günter Netzer T-shirt erinnert das ich 1974 während der Fußball Weltmeisterschaft mehr oder weniger ununterbrochen getragen habe...
what the.... ??
hehehehehehe, wow :D
