TANZER - TANGO
‘Tango’ is a bizarre, funky disco banger, featuring lyrics in English and shabby Australian-Italian. Tanzer is an Australian singer of British, German and Italian descent who spent her childhood between Rome, Italy and rural NSW - a true culture-clash diva. ’Tango’s lyrics address a timid, anxious lover, coquettishly demanding they stop overthinking things and surrender to romance. The song is heavily influenced by the seductive 1990s music releases from Italian-Hungarian porn star and cultural icon, Ilona “Cicciolina” Staller. Cicciolina was an unlikely childhood hero for Tanzer, who grew up watching her on daytime television, running for parliament and exuding glamour and confidence across her many pursuits.
