Sweet Child of Mine

Just one of those all time great metal classics by Guns 'n Rose:



And some covers:

The following nostalgic version is by Taken by Trees, with Victoria Bergman, former lead singer of the Swedish indie-pop band, Concretes:

Acoustic guitar player Trace Bundy's cover is something truly exquisite.



Adam DeGraff of The Duelling Fiddlers does a mind-blowing violin interpretation.



Following is an advertisement using sitars and in an Indo-Asian style. I wish they had made a complete version of the song. I think the singer is supposed to be Ali Akbar Khan.



New Age pianist Scott Davis does a beautiful piano rendition:

Äffi

I love dance. I'm not a great dancer myself, although I do enjoy the act of movement. I guess that is part of the reason I do martial arts. When I say that 'I love dance', I specifically mean that I love to watch a beautiful dance performance. I enjoy to see the human body in motion. Probably the best dance performance I've seen is the following one, entitled "Äffi" by Marijn Rademake, choreographed by Marco Goecke.



The emotional intensity of this performance mesmerises me every time I watch it.
