El Chiki Chiki Se Baila Así

I've been in a bit of a let's-make-fun-of-Mr.-Stibitz mood lately. So...

A while ago, during our Spanish Language Culture unit on music, we were discussing the coexistence of traditional and modern music in Spain today. Mr. Stibitz showed us a video on YouTube of a traditional group, then said that he had a video of a song more like our music here. This isn't the video he used, (I couldn't find it,) but it's the same song and it has the same overlays to show the steps. His video was slightly more school appropriate, though. (Don't worry, it's not that bad at all.)



We all thought it was pretty funny that that's his idea of American music. The song's called Chiki Chiki (or Baila el Chiki Chiki- Dance the Chiki Chiki) by Rodolfo Chikilicuatre, and most of the lyrics are about how everyone does the dance:

Rajoy dances it, Hugo Chávez dances it, Zapatero dances it...they dance it in prison, they dance it in school, my mother dances it and also my grandmother! etc, etc, etc...

The Chiki Chiki is danced like this:
One: The breakdance
Two: The Crusaíto (It's another dance- I don't know exactly how to translate it)
Three: The Moonwalk
Four: The Robocop

So now we're studying Spain the the 20th century, and the effect of Franco's dictatorship on the nation. He showed us a few videos about Franco, including the reading of his will soon after his death. Then there was a video with Franco attempting to speak English- it was so bad you couldn't understand a thing. Next, someone making fun of the previous video, who had added subtitles saying not what he meant but how it sounded, making little more sense then before. Finally, Mr. Stibitz's Word document with all the links had a video titled "Mistery" (spelled like that!). He said something like, "YouTube is so much fun, and I couldn't resist," then clicked it and we got this, called "el chikichiki lo canta franco" or "Franco sings the Chiki Chiki:"



This is one of those times when there's no better way to end a post that to shout ONLY AT IA! I mean, c'mon!
