What's your opinioin about Cristina Aguilera-s music video Candyman?
Nice, she even looks like Rosie the Riveteer.
Btw, you know it is her three times on stage (as brunette, redhead and blonde)?
I'm no fan of hers, but this video is nice.
Btw, did you notice the B-17 flying past in the clip?

B-17? Ther is too many leggs,pal , i missed B-17 ![]()
Did someone mention the Andrews Sisters
Yes, it's very nice music video with all those Cristinas!
I made a deep analize, you're right she is triplicated!
Have to admit I haven't seen it. Don't catch many music videos anymore. Too many other things going on. Guess I am getting out of the loop. Will try and catch it though.

The song was inspired by the 1941 Andrews Sisters hit "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy"

The songs of the Andrews sisters are my preferred

Véronique, you are correct.
It is inspired by the Andrew Sisters.
I personally like Glenn Miller for when it is quiet in the evening; Pennsylvania 6500, In the mood, Moonlight Serenade, etc.
(And to wake 'em up, I play Saint Louis Blues, hehehe :armata_PDT_25: )

Must confess that last night, I played Metallica One and Hero of the Day). ![]()
No, I'm not a biker or so ..... can't even drive one, hehe.
Véronique, I live near Dendermonde (Home of the legendary Bayard Steed) which is about 45 minutes driving from Ghent and Brussels.
I hope to go live in the Ardennes area (or closeby) in a few years, but that's just a thought right now (need to figure out some stuff first).

Hey congrats MAJOR Erwin. You're just a posting fool. ![]()
Look at him racking up that rank.
On the serious side you've added a lot to this forum and it's really nice having you here.
Hey Veronique and all, hope you've had time to listen to all
the great G Miller songs on my VI Corps music site. A lot of great toe tappers!

BTW, I've found something about Major Glenn Miller, some speculations abot his dead on:
http://www.bigbands.org/millercrash.htm
http://www.bigbands.org/miller_files.html
That smells like "Top Secret" :glasses:
Sorry, I'm not in the race for a higher rank,
one more site about mistery of G. Miller's death!
http://skygaze.com/content/mysteries/GlennMiller.shtml
Maybe not so far from the truth? Anyway , He give us great music with his famous and unique sound,copied by many big bands!
Well I dunno. Rumor is rumor until it is substantiated yes? Plus there are SO many stories. Which one do we believe? I say none.
It is easy to assume. It very well may be that his plane did indeed just crash. It happened ALL the time. The one that said, well we didn't find any bodies, well, is that proof? The English Channel is a big choppy, deep body of water, and we may never know.
It just appears to me that people like to believe in conspiracies and cover-ups, because face it; they are a lot more fun and imaginative. Qui?
So here's to Glenn and his great music and the gifts he shared with the world in the 40's. He made many people happy and he still is today. That is all that matters. ![]()

Typical human; we just love conspiracy theories especially when the circumstances are a bit hazy.
Personally, I think Miller's plane was just at the wrong place at the wrong time.
I even heard (well, read) that the plane flew under a group of bombers returning from a bombing mission. Apparently, a few bombers dropped their loads in the Channel (we all know a WWII plane didn't land wih armed bombs in its belly, right?) as they didn't had the chance to drop them on their targets.
One of these bombs (or several) must have hit the plane underneath.
That's just another theory.
I don't believe the French widow and that prostitute story at all (smells like revisionism to me!).
