Ok, last week I realized my first crush (Olivia Newton John) was 31 when my heart was shot by cupid as I was 7.... Now I find out Toni Basil was 38-39 when she recorded this song and performed in this video???? 38?
@@nigelkthomas9501 Well in her face now that I know I can spot things that I never paid attention to. But the way she moves in this video is so under appreciated. Definitely a one of a kind for the era.
I was 12 years old when this hit dropped. ALOT of people don't know that she has trained most of America's top pop dancers. She is very important to pop history. Wonderful woman.
She wore her Las Vegas high school cheerleader uniform for this video. At almost 40 she still fit in to it and was in great shape. Tonie is a brilliant dance and choreographer....You Rock Toni....
Toni Basil is probably one of the most accomplished Hollywood talents that almost nobody knows. Dancer, actress, singer and choreographer extraordinaire. I started out knowing nothing about her and as I learned more became more and more impressed with her accomplishments.
Good evening. 55 year old male here. Musical tastes range from Tiffany to Norwegian death metal. No exaggeration. In my humble opinion, the choreography in this video is nothing short of pristine. Cheers, everyone!
Reminds me of "Beavis and Butthead: Virtual stupidity". Somehow the rythym and drum/base sound brings it back. But great song. I was quite surprised when in 2000's some other band came out with a civer of a song and well, the harmony was anachronistic that i started to dig, and came to Toni Basil. :)
Does anyone know if this chant is what we can hear in the movie Man on fire with denzel Washington, when he cuts the tip of the fingers of the mexicain police officer in his car. A tune is aired on the radio of the car that is very like this chant. Is it this chant actually ? 🤔
I saw this back in the 80s for the first time as a child, and it still fascinates me. After years of videos from Madonna, Michael/Janet Jackson, Britney, Beyonce, various ballet, what have you, I think this is still my favorite 3-4 minutes of dance. It's camp and artsy and minimalist while still being infectious and fun. It is completely unconcerned by vanity or the need for sexiness. It feels youthful and unpracticed yet somehow polished and sophisticated and extremely precise. Timeless.
YOOO FR??? I knew it sounded similar! Listening to APT made me think of cheerleaders. I don't know the lyrics and title of this song, only the tune, so I searched desperately haha
Happy 80th birthday Toni !!! This video will always make me feel young at heart. Hard to believe she was 39 in this vid. She looks like she's in her young 20s.
Very creative video too. There was nothing like it at the time. She really used the new medium of video in a way that highlighted her choreography and dancing talents.
I can't believe this song is 40 years old now and I still listen/see it on here and I'm 66 y/o. I used to dance to this song back in the early 1983-1984 at dance clubs as a young sailor. I still do the steps to keep my legs strong/toned up til I drop dead.
I'am a 45 Year old man I grow up in the 80 s i'am a addict 80,s fan . I got two words for the generation suck ittttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt
I am very old(81). This thing kick starts me, what a great up beat lady and story. I read and learn from others. I missed her when it was in real time. So glad I saw this. The song line sticks too: You take me by the heart when you take me by the hand.
Oh, this oozes sex appeal, lol. I'm 44 and find it awesome that you are enjoying this! It was so far out and different from regular rock n' roll stuff! Very up beat is a great way to put it! Her talent is unreal as apparently she did choreography in some musicals in the early 1960's...I think. I have to look it up...
@@armenvondoms1815 At last a man who agrees and testifies, as I do, how young we are when those feelings start kicking in. I watch this video over and over. It makes me feel good and happy watching those odd moves she makes. The right leg pivot while looking straight ahead is so cool to me. Still wonder why she put the guys in there.
@@thetessellater9163 Did you miss out on the 80s? It's baffling to me that it's now seen as a decade of great music, but I guess it's mainly nostalgia. Of course it was a lot better than now, but that's not saying much...
Overall the 80s was better than today also as in morality of trusting between people and treating people right and honorable since today city life at least in snall town CA is like a prison system in the way do not care about the worth or full wellbeing of their fellow citizens. People actually think that today is way better like a social utopia ??
I loved this song in the 1980's and it was played at Roller Palace in Sheepshead Bay. I saw her on Laverne and Shirley as well. Great singer and performer!
@@nunziolagana7912 it was a song by ‘Racey’, a British band, it was about a girl ‘Kitty’. It was written by Chinn/ Chapman who wrote many songs in the 70’s for bands like Sweet, Mud, Suzi Quatro etc
I never realised just how good the choreography was on this when I was a bit younger. This is really great. God bless all of the ladies involved in this video. Hope they had good lives.
@@marcuspitts2482 I always wondered about the backing cheer leaders. Hmmm .... something about those 'ladies ' doesn't look quite right. Glad to see I'm not the only one who noticed that.
Yo la amo desde 1979 y apenas vi el subtítulo del salmo 137 dios los bendiga en Cristo Jesús dios es bueno ahí están los mandamientos que no es religión son preceptos,,para un mundo mejor ,dios los bendiga a este canal y los que escuchan este salmo de dios🙏🤗😍😠👏👏
40 years on and this song still rocks!!!.... It is so captivating to watch them dance and don't seem to get tired of it.... Not sure if it is the song or the video or me!!! ....Thank you... Toni Basil... cheers!!! 🤩💙👏🥂🎉
I was a few years short of being born when this song came out, but it is an absolute BOP! Love when songs stand the test of time and multiple generations can enjoy it.
Back in 2015, I had imbibed a fair amount of alcohol and my girlfriend of the time's great niece challenged me to a dance off. If I had the video of me doing cartwheels as a 42 year old male, while dancing like this and leaping over a very roaring fire. Ahhh, that was some dance off.
well actually she's done a lot more....David Bowie's glass spider 'theme' she did .. as well as talking heads 'once in a lifetime' video ..quite a lot actually.
Originally released as a single in the U.K. in 1981, “Mickey” made its way to the United States in 1982 to widespread success, with its iconic cheerleading-themed music video being played in heavy rotation on MTV and the new wave pop hit reaching No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.
JC Whitney thank and have the same of luck the email and any other side is intended for use in getting the guide for your help in any case of any other questions or
Great !! What more can I Say? Better than the singing and dancing Now!! More imagination and seemingly more talent too. ( at least she s not dancing as a female in her bra and Knickers, like a lot of the female artists do Now!!
She's mostly a choreographer now. She was one of the founding members of The Lockers, a street dance group who opened for acts like Frank Sinatra and Funkadelic. In the mid-'60s, she started doing choreography for film, TV, and music videos-work she continues to today. She Sang "Mickey" 41 Years Ago. See Toni Basil Now at 78.
My favorite music videos are from the late 70s to early 80s when you can tell they were improvised on the fly as compared to later videos which were bigger productions.
this song is one of the best examples of why New Wave was so much fun to listen to, and the airwaves were chock full of fun songs like this at the time. It was almost too good to be true.
I'm a musician my whole life and am no fan of dancing but her dance is just mesmerizing. Exactly on time, transition movement between the beat, even form, grace and also her ballet moves are solid.
🎉 Retro music greetings from coastal Mississippi. 1981 when this spirited video came out. I was in ninth grade when this came out. This is the cheerleader anthem 😂 always a classic ❤
Maybe you might kind if agree that the 80s was also better morally socially in that people didnt intimidate or taje advantage of people since now in small city CA it sucks . Selfishness like it's a new virtue now set in every aspect of life . That anyone needs a little boost they are hard to find it . If you now live in a nice neighborhood you do see much good I assume , but for me thar was becoming the good ole days of actually before even 2019 and further way back . During Covid things went south and being respectful to another is like gone almost . Like if the bad ones win the day . Sorty for the pessimistic words but I meant as a observation. I blame the overall government for the messes today deliberately likely allowed to kill neighborly mutual concern .
My first memory in life is dancing around the lounge room going absolutely feral with my mum. 30 years later I will still get feral when it comes on and my mum will tear up. ❤
I know it's hard to believe but Toni Basil was in her late 30s when she made this music video she was born in 1943 and the music video was made in 1981 which was also the year the song was released when you look at her in this video there's no way you would believe she's in her late 30s she looks a lot younger.
I am sure she looks great for her age and all but she's heavily made up here make up wise . Unless she had plastic surgery but I dobut it . Not a critisim of her at all she just had a bit of help . Sadly the entertainment industry has always been fickle .
I always loved this song and video. It always puts me in a good mood and smile. ☺️ Thank you Toni Basil and cheerleaders. Toni and the squad did a great job with it. 👍 I do wonder the names of the cheerleaders in this video and whatever happened them. 🤔 All of them wore sweaters with the year '80 on them. That would mean they're probably all turning 60 this year. 😳 Wow, time does fly. I know because I'm a year older than the cheerleaders. I did read that they were part of a winning squad from Carson High School in Los Angeles.
I love this video so much even after all these years.....Toni is been bless by keeping her self in good shape being a dancer all her life....and she also was a cutie pie.... still is....I seen other performers who age just beautifully just like Toni she 's a true classic......

It's absolutely insane when you look into everything she has done and accomplished, and yet, apart from this song, almost no-one knows about her.

Toni Basil's song Mickey was a big joke icon of 80s in terms of lyrics,music and video.Yet the energy of the singer and dance troop is amazing.
I loved this song in the 1980's and it was played at Roller Palace in Sheepshead Bay. I saw her on Laverne and Shirley as well. Great singer and performer!

@@marcuspitts2482 I always wondered about the backing cheer leaders. Hmmm .... something about those 'ladies ' doesn't look quite right. Glad to see I'm not the only one who noticed that.
@@marcuspitts2482 OH sh*t!! You're correct, My childhood dreams just got shattered
And just like that - I'm suddenly 10 years old on roller-skates.
Ah yes, I loved roller world. I was so active back then. 😭
Yep, that and Plastic Bertrand.
Nine.
And I'm 19 and in the Navy.
Girl sammmmmeeeee
One of the best choreographers out there. She's worked with EVERYONE!!!
Yo la amo desde 1979 y apenas vi el subtítulo del salmo 137 dios los bendiga en Cristo Jesús dios es bueno ahí están los mandamientos que no es religión son preceptos,,para un mundo mejor ,dios los bendiga a este canal y los que escuchan este salmo de dios🙏🤗😍😠👏👏
40 years on and this song still rocks!!!.... It is so captivating to watch them dance and don't seem to get tired of it.... Not sure if it is the song or the video or me!!! ....Thank you... Toni Basil... cheers!!! 🤩💙👏🥂🎉
Have you listened to the original version called Kitty by Racey
@@robertphelps1574 yes I did.. but I still prefer Toni's version.
I was a few years short of being born when this song came out, but it is an absolute BOP! Love when songs stand the test of time and multiple generations can enjoy it.
These girls rocked! I’m not gonna lie, Im a 52-year-old black man and whenever I hear this song I dance around like a high school cheerleader!
That's beautiful dude💕
Back in 2015, I had imbibed a fair amount of alcohol and my girlfriend of the time's great niece challenged me to a dance off. If I had the video of me doing cartwheels as a 42 year old male, while dancing like this and leaping over a very roaring fire. Ahhh, that was some dance off.
Love it! ❤😂
I'm listening in 2024 here. Love great music over the years. I'm 71, with a 25 year old body thanks to yoga and Jesus
Toni Basil is now 80 and still looks fabulous! Sounds like ya'll have a lot in common!!
I too have a Hispanic gardener that keeps me young.
@@eberp9270 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yoga is satanic...
Oh yea! Let’s see it! We will be the judge of that!
Brillant song. It just proves that when people cover songs they can make them into hits!
One of the most fantastic one hit wonders ever!
Another one of my favorite songs from the 80's, she was a beautiful woman & she had all the moves & they all did a great job in this video.
Love this classic hit song, back my high school days. Still remember all my class cheerleaders my high school days back 19801982, 1983.
The choreography is AMAZING!!
One of the best one hit wonders, in my opinion.
Toni nailed it. It couldn't have been any better.
I was in my 20s when this song came out..an all time favorite..LOVE TONI 😍
ONE of the Big hits of 1982. Her only Big Hit. But she left her mark on Pop culture with it.
well actually she's done a lot more....David Bowie's glass spider 'theme' she did .. as well as talking heads 'once in a lifetime' video ..quite a lot actually.
Originally released as a single in the U.K. in 1981, “Mickey” made its way to the United States in 1982 to widespread success, with its iconic cheerleading-themed music video being played in heavy rotation on MTV and the new wave pop hit reaching No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Although this is a cover.
The original,original was by UK band Racey,entitled’Kitty’.
I use to wait all day for this to come back on, on MTV!!!!!
Aún a mis 55 años escucho temas como este de los años 80...clásicos !!!
This is truly a solid classic! DEFINITELY unique and Will easily stand the test of time. Really quite amazing!

Most people don't know Toni Basil was an accomplished dancer and choreographer.
OMG! I haven't seen this video since the 80's and now she's turning 80! Love it!!
ホントに色んな意味でスゲエ
特にダンスがキレッキレ
チアリーディングか…
動きがヤベエ、キレッキレ
Great !! What more can I Say? Better than the singing and dancing Now!! More imagination and seemingly more talent too. ( at least she s not dancing as a female in her bra and Knickers, like a lot of the female artists do Now!!
I’m a 65 year old teenager and street sing this and many others, the foot fall love it. ❤
She's mostly a choreographer now.
She was one of the founding members of The Lockers, a street dance group who opened for acts like Frank Sinatra and Funkadelic. In the mid-'60s, she started doing choreography for film, TV, and music videos-work she continues to today. She Sang "Mickey" 41 Years Ago. See Toni Basil Now at 78.
My favorite music videos are from the late 70s to early 80s when you can tell they were improvised on the fly as compared to later videos which were bigger productions.
I was only in kindergarten when this song became popular in 1981? Wow, how time flies!
I loved this song. I was pretty young at the time but I loved her dancing and the energy injected into the song
Simply amazingly hypnotic!!! Her talent oozes out of every movement.
This song reminds me of 10th grade 1982 ❤ love mickey
can remember dancing to this in the local teenie boppers disco. hard to believe Toni it 70+ now
Boy do I miss this song/video. Yes the 80's!!❤️❤️💃💃🤸♀️
this song is one of the best examples of why New Wave was so much fun to listen to, and the airwaves were chock full of fun songs like this at the time. It was almost too good to be true.
ゴリエで知ったこの曲 原曲も素敵ですね
Love this song !! I wish I could go back in time. ❤
I'm a musician my whole life and am no fan of dancing but her dance is just mesmerizing. Exactly on time, transition movement between the beat, even form, grace and also her ballet moves are solid.
Forgot how flipping amazing this was! Toni Basil is the best!
🎉 Retro music greetings from coastal Mississippi. 1981 when this spirited video came out. I was in ninth grade when this came out. This is the cheerleader anthem 😂 always a classic ❤
Even at age 71, I never tire of this number. Classic!
Maybe you might kind if agree that the 80s was also better morally socially in that people didnt intimidate or taje advantage of people since now in small city CA it sucks . Selfishness like it's a new virtue now set in every aspect of life . That anyone needs a little boost they are hard to find it . If you now live in a nice neighborhood you do see much good I assume , but for me thar was becoming the good ole days of actually before even 2019 and further way back . During Covid things went south and being respectful to another is like gone almost . Like if the bad ones win the day . Sorty for the pessimistic words but I meant as a observation. I blame the overall government for the messes today deliberately likely allowed to kill neighborly mutual concern .
My first memory in life is dancing around the lounge room going absolutely feral with my mum. 30 years later I will still get feral when it comes on and my mum will tear up. ❤
40 yrs old now....still a pretty good tune.
I’m going to be 40 soon too! Man those were the good old days 😄
She is 78 years old now..
@@muratdogrusoz5705 I mean the song.....
I will remember you when i‘m 40 listing to this song.
I graduated in 1982. Man this brings back memories
2023 y aún sigo escuchando esta canción como cuando tenía 14 años,muy bonita canción con mucha energía como cuando la bailaba .......bien Toni Basil
The energy of both the song and the video is wonderful. Such an upbeat choreography.
loved this as an 80s kid...still love it!!!
When I heard the APT., I immediately thought of this song.
Fantastic career spanning decades, worked with everyone, Bravo Toni!
Mis 80,s jamas volverán pero quedaron estas obras de canciones chingonas me hacen "transportarme" a mi juventud!!!!!!!
I know it's hard to believe but Toni Basil was in her late 30s when she made this music video she was born in 1943 and the music video was made in 1981 which was also the year the song was released when you look at her in this video there's no way you would believe she's in her late 30s she looks a lot younger.
Check her out as one of the hookers in EASY RIDER. That's the hot Toni.
right on, and that is in fact her cheer leader uniform she wore when she went to Las Vegas High
I am sure she looks great for her age and all but she's heavily made up here make up wise . Unless she had plastic surgery but I dobut it .
Not a critisim of her at all she just had a bit of help . Sadly the entertainment industry has always been fickle .
shlibber Oh I don't deny that . But she had the help of a good make up artist here as well .
She’s old enough to be my mum! Born same year! 75 in 2018.
One of my favorite one hit wonders from 80's
One of the songs on the radio when I was happy. Was always on the top 5 in my area lol.
She was gorgeous. I was glad to find out years after her hit with this that she had a very successful showbiz career.
Great dancer. Great dance teacher. She was, and still is, adorable.
This is a song that helped me through my freshman year of high school alot of great songs were out during this time
Bought this,with a WHS record voucher I got for my Birthday, Still got the old 45.
Brilliant.love it !!!
wow Think i still have a voucher some where in my box omg
I wanna know how many takes it took to nail the choreography. This really is impressive.
I always loved this song and video. It always puts me in a good mood and smile. ☺️ Thank you Toni Basil and cheerleaders. Toni and the squad did a great job with it. 👍 I do wonder the names of the cheerleaders in this video and whatever happened them. 🤔 All of them wore sweaters with the year '80 on them. That would mean they're probably all turning 60 this year. 😳 Wow, time does fly. I know because I'm a year older than the cheerleaders. I did read that they were part of a winning squad from Carson High School in Los Angeles.
THAT'S MY😊😊AWESOME TIMELESS CLASSIC 😊TO ALL THE GREAT CLASSIC 😊
I love the song.... and find the choreography just mesmerizing.
Brings back great memories of good days - so much more then, than now...it seems. Oh Mickey indeed!
Word of mouth is one of my all time albums , Toni is shamefully underrated, she’s the whole package ❤️
Kesini gegara Rosé rilis APT.
I love this video so much even after all these years.....Toni is been bless by keeping her self in good shape being a dancer all her life....and she also was a cutie pie.... still is....I seen other performers who age just beautifully just like Toni she 's a true classic......
😘 excelente video, cuando aún existía la decencia en la música
Genial, aunque escuchaba siempre esta canción, nunca había visto este video, buen clásico!!! 👉👉👉👍👍👏👏👏👏

Just an overall AWESOME video! Iconic 80s song! Toni is AMAZING ❤
Haha! I remember trying to dance along to this when I was younger. I'd put cushions on the floor just to do headstands against the sofa. XD
