Awaodori (阿波踊り) , a Japanese traditional dance

I will introduce Awaodori (阿波踊り) this time. Awaodori is a Japanese traditional dance which people walk street with dancing. This is danced on summer in Tokushima prefecture (徳島県) of Shikoku (四国). This dance have a history of four hundreds years. Pepple danced with duple sound which is played by drums and recoders, etc. And People danced with saying 「えらいやっちゃ、えらいやっちゃ、ヨイヨイヨイヨイ、踊る阿呆に見る阿呆、同じ阿呆なら踊らな損々…」 or phrase like 「Yattsutosa-yattsutosa(ヤットサーヤットサー)」. This meaning is that 「It's crisis. It's crisis. Dancing fool, watching fool. Both are the same fool, so why don't you dance?」. In short, dance crazy with no worry. It is really funny dance.
