Karaoke For The Deaf: Torn by Johann Lippowitz

This is almost guaranteed to put a smile on my face no matter how bad the week has been…

“Johann Lippowitz an interpretative Austrian Dance Artist” (real name David Armand) does a hilarious mime to the really good Natalie Imbruglia song “Torn”. I really like the song but that has no bearing on how much I like this interprative dance.

It’s stunningly brilliant and the “dance actions” are so spot on, right down to facial expressions and body posture, I’ve not met anyone who hasn’t laughed several times watching this.

Enjoy!

I really like the song Torn so added the lyrics below:

I thought I saw a man brought to life
He was warm
He came around like he was dignified
He showed me what it was to cry
Well you couldn’t be that man I adored
You don’t seem to know
Or seem to care what your heart is for
Well I don’t know him anymore
There’s nothing where he used to lie
My conversation has run dry
That’s what’s going on
Nothing’s fine I’m torn

I’m all out of faith
This is how I feel
I’m cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed
Into something real
I’m wide awake
And I can see
The perfect sky is torn
You’re a little late
I’m already torn

So I guess the fortune teller’s right
I should have seen just what was there
And not some holy light
But you crawled beneath my veins
And now I don’t care
I have no luck
I don’t miss it all that much
There’s just so many things
That I can’t touch I’m torn

I’m all out of faith
This is how I feel
I’m cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed
Into something real
I’m wide awake
And I can see
The perfect sky is torn
You’re a little late
I’m already torn

Torn
hoooooooooo hoohooooooo oooooooo

There’s nothing where he used to lie
My inspiration has run dry
That’s what’s going on
Nothing’s right I’m torn

I’m all out of faith
This is how I feel
I’m cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed
Into something real
I’m wide awake
And I can see
The perfect sky is torn

I’m all out of faith
This is how I feel
I’m cold and I’m ashamed
Bound and broken on the floor
You’re a little late
I’m already torn
