'Trekkie' Tangos!

Ok! I'm a 'Trekkie' (StarTrek that is).
So, I was watching the absolutely fabulous new series 'Enterprise' the other night and humming the tune....Been a long time....., it dawned on me that the theme song, is up for a Tangos take off! 4/4 sweet as a pie and nice with el palmas!
What do you all think, anybody up for showing off their skills and posting a Trekkie Tangos.
Go on, make my day.

Cheers
Jim.

More flamenco trivia - West Side story tune "La-la-la-la-la America" is a (slightly deranged) bulerias.

Juan Martin described this as 'distasteful', I believe.
