Spunk Watches Italian Music Videos

DSCF2362

Spunk has started watching Italian music videos. His current favorites are Anna Tatangelo’s “Sensi” (Feelings) — https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xB6QA7snWqk, and Litfiba’s “Squalo” (Shark) — https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gbcYNU71JOo.

In “Squalo” there are a couple of women painted up as skeletons who dance in the darkness for a few seconds at various times throughout the video. Spunk would start pawing at the skeleton figures every time they came on screen. I wonder how he sees the figures that makes him want to touch them.

I put on another Italian music video, but Spunk lost interest soon after it began, jumped down and started playing with his toys on the floor. When I replayed “Sensi”, he bounded across the room, slid up to the computer and intently watched the video again — he seemed to be enamored by Anna.

The lyrics to “Sensi” in Italian and English are available at http://lyricstranslate.com/en/sensi-feelings.html. I did not find an English translation for “Squalo”.

  1. Ha ha ha… This is so funny! Spunk seems to be very interested in that clip… Is it the Italian music are the moving pictures?

    • Thanks, Herman! Well, he definitely responded to the music when I replayed Sensi and he can running to watch it again. But I think he’s taking cues from Guildenstern and likes pretty women.

  2. TV watching cats are the best! My Crystal watches TV sometimes. Naturally “kitten” shows are on her list, but her favorite is a documentary called “Raccoon Nation” — she watches intently — all the way through. I found Parrot Confidential, which she also watched a lot. My older cat, Aspen was fascinated with a Fred Astaire dance video — his tastes must be more in line with Spunk’s. 😀

    Thanks for the Tuesday smile. Hugs!

  3. Love that Spunk! (And Rosenkrantz and Guildenstern, and all the others!)
    Thanks for the smiles this morning!

  4. That’s pretty interesting! Our cats seem to have music styles they like, or dislike. Harmonica music is not a favorite of theirs. Something about the frequencies emitted. I found they really like my old 12-string Ventura tuned to G-minor.

    Do the snakes have any preferences?
