    I hate it when they mess up good songs.
    The idea of the video is fun though.

    You mean they messed up the Black Eyed Peas song with the video, or the Black Eyed Peas messed up the Pulp Fiction theme with their song?

    That theme is in itself an adaptation of a piece of Greek folk music, so where do you start the loathing? :D

    :D

    However, i think i should inform you that women dance too--most of time along with the men( in a separate line outside men's "deployment").

    Ah...Another thing. The Greeks ,during dancing, form a semi cycle. :D

    PS; Pulp fiction theme has been obviously influenced by greek music. However, the way it's played dates more to the beginnning of the century than folk music does.(Here,when we say folk music we mostly refer to songs--at most--of the 19th century that,of course, survived and are played till nowdays). Although this does not exclude this different manner of playing from folk music.

    Greeks dance in a bunch of different ways. They do dance in circular, semi-cercular, lined formations and also in individual pairs.
    Also there are dances that are performed only by men, dances that are performed only by women, dances that are performed in a mixed state (women and men together) and dances that are performed by both men and women but in separate formations.
    PS: Greek folk music as a term does not stand. Every part of Greece used to have it's own music patterns and hearings. For example, there were areas (and still be) that sticked to traditional music, whereas Smyrni had it's special musical creations.

    Sure it does. It's Greek, and it's folk music. From here you can subcategorize it all you want, I am ignorant of further details.

    What I mean to say is that these subcategories are in fact major and cannot be united under the name of folk music. It is like trying to say European folk music; just can't be a term like that... Folk music is a subcategory itself!
