There’s a great Youtube video of the opening ceremonies of the 1976 Olympics. The whole thing looks like a long American Apparel ad — check out just after the 5 minute mark when the mayor of Munich appears in some awesome folk getup. He must have been performing at the drums in the park off Mount Royal before heading over to the stadium.

The whole video is made up of pixelations and other artifacts of the compression process. Meanwhile, the vocals themselves are completely fake, pumped through auto-tune to correct the fact that Kanye can’t sing. But still… kinda cool:
