For old people like me, it's absolutely wonderful...

Reminds me it's almost 5-years since I binge-watched my Fred Astaire collection of 13 films (which span 1933-1957)...

Him with dancers like Joan Crawford, Ginger Rogers, Eleanor Powell (my favorite), Rita Hayworth (his favorite), Judy Garland, and Cyd Charisse...

Astaire, Gene Kelly, Michael Jackson: Three incredibly unique entertainers who parlayed a so-so voice and a dynamic & flexible body into being three of the greatest male entertainers of all time, IMHO...

Awesomely done. Can’t tell if it just works or is manipulated,,,but it’s a great vid.

Wow! Thanks a bunch - that really put a smile on my face.

I can’t begin to imagine how much effort and time it took for them to put that together.

Uptown Funk isn’t rap. The vocal line is a melody.

Ok boomer 😉 It’s a fun song-I love it and can’t help but dance whenever I hear it. It’s not rap.

Seen it many times but absolutely love it. I harkens back to a time when Hollywood produced great entertainment produced by some seriously talented people. Unfortunately that doesn’t happen any more.

It was very enjoyable. Those are still some of the most gorgeous women who ever lived.

The dancing was great. The background noise was horrible. I didn’t wait until the end.

First video - if that doesn't bring a smile to your face there's something wrong with you.

Second video - yeah, now waiting for them to come and put the cuffs on me.

Very good. Not a fan of most modern popular music...but I do enjoy that song/rap/funk.
