Yes, I love anything done in slow motion because the performer must be in total control at all times. Any small mistake is magnified in the time bending.

I used to participate in lots of dance-drama when I was in school, mostly as a back stage lead-singer…and I think I absolutely know what you are talking about David.
The songs those were slow were the toughest one to rehearse…the dancer/s used to be quite ok to pick up the fast-numbers, but the slow songs were usually more expressive with all kind emotions that needed them to “slow down” and both me and the dancers/ actors/ actresses used to struggle a lot…matching words with action and expression – all three together were pretty exhausting but rewarding the end.
