Love it, and love Kusturica. His work has been weaker in recent years, but he's a solid artist. Love "In the Time of the Gypsies." Nice post!

Still, holds no candle compared to this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Gypsy_Van_Front.jpg

Gypsy home built in 1968 on a 1937 GMC F-16 Chassis. The framework is oak, and the interior is handcrafted in fine woods and leather with antique furniture. It can sleep six (a double bed is located in a loft beneath the dome visible above the cab), and it has a full-sized stove, a sink, a shower, hot and cold running water, a coal burning stove, a living/dining area and a back porch.

Originally named "Leviathan," the truck was present on the first day of building People's Park, April 20, 1969. It was also driven, with friends, to a Spring, 1969 love-in on the top of Mount Tamalpais near San Francisco.

He cuts out some stuff from the other performance in this one

Step on my trip
step on my trippin'

step on my trip just
just step on my trippin

step on my trip just

step in my trip just
step on my trip man

just on my trip... on my trip ya'll


confused,
abused,
overused in my walking shoes.

i never turn back,
cause i know the score.

i never reuse what i do
performin' this.

too late .
my fate.
i regurgitate
all the words that i say.

listen up,
don't miss the forward (foreword?),
just pick it up now
off the floor and

guess who?
yea you...

you're the ones that im talking to.

you're never gonna guess
whats coming next.

let your mind inside
when i manifest,

but

inside
this rhyme,
you will find
my mind

just step in my crazy livin'

just step in my trip just,

step on my trip
step on my trip man

step on my trip just
yea step my trip man

step in my trip just
step in my trip man

yea step on my on my trip ya'll

cause i got
no pecs
to flex
all day long
i dream about sex
but im impotent
and im semi (hard)
so i cant remember when i got it up last

i stink
i need a drink
roll another spliff to help me think

i live on the road just like a gypsy
cause stayin in one place
is (swell and ?)jiffy but

sunshine
moonshine
change the way
that ima read your mind
livin inside this solar flux
we're all trapped in a
perpetual paradox
but

you're here
im near

the way that i flow is oh so clear

just step in my crazy livin

just step on my trip just

step on my trip just
step on my trip man

step on my trip just
step on my trippin

step on my trip just
yea step on my trip man

oh so
it was in my mind that i see
flow outta me easily
so easily that my mind is free
to blaze every (mile) of my fantasy

cause when i get on this mic
im flowin so awfully tight
so awfully tight
that my rhymes are like
the claw of a tiger thats ready to strike


now when i get on the street
create a brand new beat
feel free to come up and meet me
dont be shy you can never distract me
when negative vibes attack me
get into my mind and hack me
i act like nothin's happenin
theres no way to stop me

stop me...


*** (parenthsis contain not so sure translation... )

Only took a few months. That other video really helped understand some of the words better.. but its still not 100%. More like 95%.

(unintelligible sung phrase.. "i wasted away?")

see
my
heaven raining down
inside of me

time
will always dictate evolution
so
i
let it wash all over me
like waterfalls
and memories
eternally

see
my
heaven raining down
inside of me
time will always dictate
evolution
so
i
let it wash all over me
like waterfalls
and memories
eternally

i melted away
my existence is gone
the life that i once had means nothing at all

i am lost inside

slow down...
slow down!

i melted away

my existence is gone

i have melted away

(unintelligible... "as i?")

oh so
it was in my mind that i see
flow outta me easily
so easily that my mind is free
to blaze every (mile) of my fantasy

cause when i get on this mic
im flowin so awfully tight
so awfully tight

oh to stop me... today

oh the music

it's in my head
it's in my head

the music

it's in my head
it's in my head

*** (parenthsis contain not so sure translation... actually it would be great to get more opinions )

Sounds like Gypsy music with no emotion and triple-tempo.

Wow! Gypsy fiddle is the best fiddle.

You have been awarded 1 Power Point for fixing the embed code for Dead Pool video Haunting & beautiful river scene from "Time of the Gypsies". Thank you for helping maintain VideoSift's reliability.

For those not in the know, the style this man's playing in is known as Gypsy Swing. A genre started by a Belgian jazz guitarist named Django Reinhardt who is known as of the greatest guitarists of all time. Not only did the man play such upbeat material such as this, he did so using only two fingers.

All out SiftWars.

Everyone who doesn't agree with you or holds other opinions is part of "them". They are somehow defenders or sympathizers with ________ (insert banished username). REVEAL YOURSELF! Are you now or have you ever been a member of the "others". (Insert required Godwin's statement)

Go back to where you came from you gypsy scum. We are superior because we are tolerant, except for people who ask for tolerance. We don't tolerate anyone who is intolerant. Why don't you hang out with your live-and-let-live trash. You're either with us or against us.

Electro Gypsy for sure.
