Very cool, and very different. Fascinating.

Oh! Oh! Oh! My new favorite thread.

This is one Hubs plays a lot. It's a mashup of classic Hollywood music dance numbers to Bruno Mars' Uptown Funk.

I sure lurvs me some Gene Kelly.

It's very well done. And it's Chemical Brothers :thumbsup: (interesting to see artists mature over time).

You should cross-post this into the Music free-for-all thread.

One more from me (today)

The closing credits from A Night At The Museum where Dick Van Dyke (with Mickey Rooney and Bill Cobbs) is still bringing it home (at 80 years of age). Wow!

I knew Bruno Mars. I didn't know Uptown Funk until the mashup. I'd love to see Bruno and James Corden!!!!!

There are certain songs that will just live on -- that one will.

But are you ready to roll?

...and it was all done in one take with no rehearsal. This was confirmed when the Nicholas brothers were at the Kennedy Center Honors (1991).

I have to work on my organ improvisation. Right now all I do is make it up as I go along.

I've probably posted this one as often as I've posted the Fred Astaire Uptown Funk mix, but once more won't hurt.

What an adorable kid! It is physically impossible to watch that video without breaking into a huge grin.

And that version of Can't Stop The Feeling just overtook Timberlake's orig. Shout out to the guy in the Spongebob shorts.

I know a lot of people roll their eyes at Taylor Swift but I love the dancing in this video, and the way she makes fun of herself. Plus, I really like the song. So shoot me.

(Just my arrogant opinion but I suspect Swift is a better dancer than she plays in the video. She nails fifth position too easily for a newbie. Yes, I too was forced to take dance lessons my entire childhood.)
