with kids still killing it all around the world.

You're right, of course.

My body could not do that!
That was great.

If everyone would dance like that now, we wouldn't need to have aerobics classes! And Don Cornelius was the BEST host of all the music/dance shows. Love this trip down memory lane.

My parents got a glazed look when I'd turn on Soul Train and watch the whole thing. But they knew I got incredible music through a jerryrigged old mono Panasonic cassette recorder hooked to an antique shortwave radio that could pick up Chicago stations at night. I recorded hundreds of hours nary elsewhere heard but my car in the midwest.

From many of the men in this clip you can see the morph into hip hop dancing.

I remember when I had knees. . . .

.... Not one had a waist bigger than 28 inches around. And their bodies are so flexible and nimble. And this jive shit should be listed as a sin - shaking your tush around like that - for God's Sake someone is bound to get all excited and aroused.

My generation never did stuff like this - of course it was so far back and long ago - my youth is like a fog or a mirage - at my age it is very difficult to remember.

Here is my favorite video version of that song...

Other planets. Other galaxies. It's just too good to fade away.

We need to get on board...

(and great dancing too!)
