Music that time forgot (probably for the best) (80s Talk Post)

Idiot Spins Out And Crashes Mustang Into Oncoming Traffic

This is probably some sort of convention. All of the cars will leave at the same time at the end of the day to show the cars one more time. You'll notice the crowd and the Camaro/Firebird (not sure) in the last frame.

Wow.

I'm back.

arsenault: if you think that Pontiac Firebird was a WRX, well... good work.

No, it wasn't a self-link. It was just a funny video, and my first submission to the Sift that has entertained me so much.

For everyone who jumped on the "evidence" of the first comment, I direct you to watch The Simpsons and about a dozen other comedies that have made the "it's okay, cruise control!" joke when no one is driving.

Lordy lord.

Allegro non troppo (1h 20min)

pyrex says...

"Allegro non troppo is a Bruno Bozzetto animated film released in 1977. The film is a parody of Disney's Fantasia, though possibly more of a challenge to Fantasia than parody status would imply. In music, an instruction of "allegro ma non troppo" means to play "fast, but not overly so". In the context of this film, and without the "ma", it means Not So Fast!, an interjection meaning "slow down" or "think before you act" and refers to the film's pessimistic view of Western progress (as opposed to the optimism of Disney's original).

The film features six classical pieces:

Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune by Claude Debussy
Slavonic Dance No. 7 by Antonín Dvořák
Boléro by Maurice Ravel
Valse Triste by Jean Sibelius
Concerto in C Major by Antonio Vivaldi
The Firebird by Igor Stravinsky

The classical pieces are set to color animation, ranging from comedy to deep tragedy. At the beginning, in between the animation, and at the end is black and white live action film, displaying the (well, not the actual) animator, orchestra, conductor, and filmmaker, with many humorous scenes about the (again, not actual) production of the film."

Finally, additional props to sometimes for posting the sad cat segment of this intriguing movie.
