This is a great song by les Rita Misouko about Marcia Moretto who was a dancer and choreographer from Argentina. She died in 1981 in Paris at the age of 32 from a cancer. Two of her students were Catherine Ringer and Frederic Chichin. This is my English translation of the French lyrics. Marcia Baila - Youtube.com ===== Marcia Baila – Marcia Dances =====

Marcia she dances 
on satin, on rayon
with expanded polystyrene at her feet
Marcia dances with her legs
Pointed like scissors
Two darts which gives ideas
Sensations
Marcia, she is thin
Beautiful on the scene, beautiful like the city
Seeing her dance transforms me in excitations

Moretto
With your mouth
was large when you smile
and when you laugh
I laugh as well,
you love life so much
But what’s that cold I feel in you?

It’s Death,
which killed you Marcia
It’s death
that consumed, Marcia
It’s the cancer you got under your arm
Now you are ashes, ashes
Death was like something impossible
And even you who was as strong as a rocket
And even you who was life itself, Marcia
Its Death that took you.

Marcia dances a little Chinese
The heat
In the movement of the shoulders
Flat
Like an Incan hieroglyph
at the Opera

With her head
She dances just as well
And her face
Dances with the rest
She looked
for a new way
And  she invented it

It’s her, the grasshopper
The love sick mermaid
The dancer in flanelle
Or cardboard.

Moretto
With your mouth
was large when you smile
and when you laugh
I laugh as well,
you love life so much
But what’s that cold I feel in you?

But it’s Death,
that killed you. Marcia
It’s death which ate you up, Marcia
It’s the cancer you got under your arm
Now you are just ashes, ashes
Death was like something impossible
For you
Who was life itself, Marcia

And even you who was as strong as a rocket
And even you who was life itself, Marcia
Its Death that took you.

Marcia Baila

Marcia Baila

And the Ricky Martin Spanish cover version

Marcia Marcia baila Se va quitando su vestido
Marcia Marcia baila Pasito a paso yo la sigo

Marcia baila conmigo

Marcia Marcia baila
Anestesiando mis sentidos
Marcia Marcia baila
Iqual que baila un corazon

Un corazon Para no morir Tiene que bailar

Marcia da vueltas y vueltas por el salon
Baila desnuda la danza de la pasion
Yo me dejo llevar por su seduccion
Y al final siempre caigo en la tentacion

Marcia me da la vida Y me lo roba todo
Marcia baila conmigo Marcia me vuelve loco
