DANCE FEVER

Recently, I contracted the fever, Dancer Fever. No, I’m not the one dancing, but it has been on my mind. Maybe it’s because I joined Nikki in watching ‘So You Think You Can Dance’ this season. Maybe it’s because I was asked to be a returning judge for the Jazz Dancer Auditions.

Who's to say how I got it, but allow me to share some of my favorite dancing:

Berries & Crème:
Very odd, very quirky, but it makes me laugh every time.


the commercial:



Hooked on a Feeling:

Impossible tobogganing, the gift of flight, the ability to create three-dimensional boxes from thin air… is there anything the Hoff cannot do? Throw in some Dachshunds and Angels in, say, the Amazon Rainforest, and you’ve got something special. Truly, truly Hoffrageous.



Aicha:

Gellie Man, you genius! Never mind the fact that your video failed to impress your prospective online girlfriend. Never mind the fact that she disrespected you by sending it to the entire world. Even if you can’t spell, “Aisha”, you’re still a creative mastermind in my book. Your teenage angst and cinematic use of Minnie Mouse bed sheets is unprecedented.

“She moves how???” That’s right, Gellie Man, like a briz… like a briz.

I anxiously await your next masterpiece.



Finnish Delight:
Forget Napoleon Dynamite, it’s obvious the Finns created the most entertaining dance sequence ever two decades earlier. BEST. MUSIC. VIDEO. EVER!

That Finnish music video has always been one of my favorites. :) I am now going to have to start doing the berries & cream dance though. What parent wouldn't shove those right down the kids mouth just to get him to shut up? That is classic. "I'm a little Lad that loves berries & cream". :) hahaha, that's still so freakishly funny.

Here are my thoughts on who should star in future remakes...
1) Berries and Creme - Denver. Why? Who wouldn't love seeing him in a little outfit like that?

2) Hooked on a Feeling - no one. Why? You can't mess with perfection and who else but the Hoff would agree with that?

3)Aicha - Morgan. Why? He has great dance moves just like this kid and I think he could handle the vocals as well.

4)Finnish Delight - Burke Family. Why? From what I understand there have been many a family talent shows as well as many family t-shirts. I think it would be a perfect remake.

By the way...did "Greese" steal the ending car flying away scene from the Fins?

I love video, I want to love it tender.
