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 (interesting to see artists mature over time).

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

That mashup introduced me to Uptown Funk! And Gene Kelly -

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!

(All were great!)




Edit to add:

Slim, you beat me to it. Mine's in color.

Oh, say what...? you didn't know Bruno Mars before a mashup vid with Gene Kelly. Don't make me repost a Car Pool Karaoke.

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?

I heard a football game once broke out around a Bruno Mars concert.

Every time I have seen them do that and jump right into splits, I hurt.

You are right. It looks painful...

...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).

Um. Yeah it was all improv. It was all done in one take -- and beautifully done.

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

I love all the new dance posts!

[raison de arizona]

This is just the most adorable I have ever seen!

[AndyinPA]

I've seen that one before, but it will always charm!

[neonzx]

Apparently, we want to dance, dance, dance.

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

[Slim Cognito]

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.)
