"Something to break the ice"..... or "Argentinian tango dancers"

After viewing (studing) several videos as well as attending to several live performances of of professional tango dancers, i have came up to the conclusion that Argentinian tango dancers (and i mean the pros) have something to their dance that no foreigner can achieve. Maybe is the fact that besides translating the music they hear they also incorporate and the lyrics to their dancing framework (building a more complex emotional structure). Some reasons that i can cite are the fact the lyrics are in their mother language, they are born in a tango culture while "gringos" discover it later to their life.

Anyway, i am waiting your opinion on that.
