Back in 1985, I was working on my third solo album when the band came to me and asked me to produce the next Fleetwood Mac project. At that point, I put aside my solo work – which was half finished – and committed myself for the next seventeen months to producing ‘Tango in the Night.’
Lindsey Buckingham
I like structuring verses, choruses, but sometimes the verses might be a tango and the choruses might be death metal.
Daron Malakian
I wouldn’t go so far as to make ‘You Don’t Own Me’ a tango or ‘It’s My Party’ a hip-hop thing. Believe me, those things have been suggested to me. But I thought if I could stay true to the song, the arrangements would work. I’m really enjoying singing them.
Lesley Gore
Honestly, I don’t really know the rules of tango!
Laurie Hernandez
I don’t know if a penny’s dropped somewhere, but you’ve had ‘Lark Rise to Candleford,’ you’ve had ‘Cranford,’ you’ve had ‘Last Tango in Halifax,’ you’ve had ‘Call the Midwife’… I think the largest portion of the viewing public are over 55, and they like to see people they can identify with.
Judy Parfitt
I did go to public school, but that’s only because my parents were abroad. As a matter of fact, I think that’s helped my work. I can go from Victoria Wood’s ‘Dinnerladies’ to playing Barbara Cartland, from ‘Coronation Street’ to playing Celia in Last ‘Tango’.
Anne Reid
I don’t do so much acting work now, as there aren’t the parts except for ‘Tango’. So if I didn’t have the cabaret work, I don’t know what I would be doing.
Anne Reid
It’s a joy doing ‘Tango.’ I’d do it till the day I die, frankly.
Sarah Lancashire
‘Tango’ is very much an ensemble piece and I was devastated when I read the script.
Sarah Lancashire
My body’s weird and bent in different ways, but it’s handy for the tango!
Caroline Flack
Everyone should learn to tango in Argentina before they die.
Ian McKeever
I grew up listening to everything. You know, from Argentinean folk music, tango, jazz, rock, just everything.
Gustavo Santaolalla
I wanted to have a reaction from the audience. I wanted to be able to talk to somebody, and not be talking just to myself. That’s when I did ‘The Conformist,’ ‘Last Tango in Paris,’ etc. And I found it was incredibly rewarding, something new.
Bernardo Bertolucci
A while ago, I got a chance to learn tango for a performance in my college.
Sai Pallavi
It started at 49 with ‘Tango in Halifax’ and then ‘Happy Valley.’ I can’t complain at a time when most actors are disappearing. I seem to have become very visible.
Sarah Lancashire
We believe that we should come to an agreement with the Palestinians. But we need two to tango.
Silvan Shalom
I’ve discovered all kinds of music and done all kinds of music over the past 40 years, from playing tango with Piazzolla to all the different bands I’ve had.
Gary Burton
Yes, I love going to fittings and talking about the history of a costume. For ‘Versailles,’ a play set in 1919, the costume designer told me that pocket squares had just been introduced. The tango was becoming fashionable in London, and dancers used them to mop their brows. I love to learn fascinating stuff like that.
Gwilym Lee
‘Tango’ was a good experience, looking back on it, and it seems to hold up pretty well.
Lindsey Buckingham
In my childhood, I was very fond of western music and dance forms like Hip Hop, Salsa, Tango, etc.
Koena Mitra
The money part is one of the most difficult things. Coppola always said I should do a tango movie. If it hadn’t been for him, I don’t know where we would have gotten the money.
Robert Duvall
People very rarely know my real name but recognise me as characters from my shows, such as ‘Last Tango In Halifax.’
Nicola Walker
I’ve always wanted to learn the Argentine tango.
Jodie Sweetin
Even though I had pushed through the Tango album, it was just not a very good environment to be in on a daily basis. In many ways, this is the best time of my life.
Lindsey Buckingham
When I last looked, there weren’t queues of eager guys under 40 hanging outside single ladies’ doors begging them to give up work and have their babies. It takes two to tango and the same number, without medical help, to make a child.
