Before there was Lady Gaga, there was Carmen Miranda. While this clip has a longer lead-in than another of the same song on YouTube, I think it's worth the wait for the sharper image. If you love her style, as I've done for ages, there's lots more where this came from.

Drat! I still can't see the video and I adore Carmen Miranda!
Wow! Look at the gold platform shoes she had on!
Fun clip.
Sarah, try going to You Tube and searching for: Carmen Miranda - "Give Me a Band and a Bandana"
Lynn, she was so famous for the wild headwear, but her shoes were pretty fabulous, too.
Wow. The fact that she can dance in those heels is amazing! I can barely cut a rug in 2" heels!
I like the pink palms on her gloves. Unique.
Wow! video is so good.
I forgot about this post until I read your post foe Esther Williams. Are you familiar with Jimmy Buffett's song," They Don't Dance Like Carmen No More" I was nine years old when she died and I cried!
