A compilation with the best of James Brown's Dance . The other video was removes by RUclips, this is the extended version of the video and appropriate.
Mr.Brown: the Godfather of Soul; whether it be Hip Hop, Funk, etc. The old school. Thank you for showing us Soul, and giving us the blueprint! Much respect... 👍✌👌☝️💯❤
Just Wow.....wow......wow....in the top of soul songs and dance. The best....R and B songster and dancer of course. Today,,,,if you want to do a quick work-out just put James on RUclips. You can do a two song workout and never feel it!
You all need to research anyone can dance moves that are taught to them, but being a natural awesome DANCER, i think you will have to make a new list - - Remember Paula Abdul taught most of these people their stuff and their respective recordscompanies,
The best part is that there is no rigid pattern to his moves. He just improvises around different styles; does whatever he feels. He is like a kung fu master of dancing.
Michael Jackson copied many of his dance moves directly from James Brown but also invented some of his own, of course. I'd say James Brown is Michael's daddy when it comes to dancing.
He is the baddest dancer and singer that I remember. I grew up with him we all tried to dance like him.. still have to try..ha, wish he was still alive😞 Canellas
Ok, i came here to watch James Brown's moves dance and people is always comparing him with Elvis or Michael Jackson (if you called him ''Wacko Jacko'' you are a totally ignorant and a press kid). They are three different artists, Elvis was a talented guy with a beautiful deep baritone voice and charisma, James Brown was a natural dancer and Mr. Dynamite!!, Michael Jackson was a very talented guy and he always said that James Brown and Fred Astaire were masters for him, he inspired his moves on street dance and of course, from the masters and black dancers.
James Brown looks like he just danced to what he felt in his soul at the time. Amazing rhythm from head to toe. loved dancing to J Browns music. Funk and soul to the core. He did this long before there was the moon walk. awesome!
Eric Cooper why you getting off topic??? You are the same thing of what you hate you are a black KKK member fucking hypocrite hates racism treats an entire race like they were all racist.Your the one here saying racist insults.

Wow! Where have I been all my life? James Brown is Dance God. The hand shaking thing at about 1:20 is perhaps the origin of Thriller. And Elvis was a poor imitation! (Though I love Elvis). Michael Jackson and Elvis were of course gods but this man is the magus, mustard, motherload. He does those moves Jazzily, without preparation, from the soul.
+timtak1 And Elvis' wasn't from the soul? It's not like he spent hours in a dance studio working on his moves. Think again before you take another jab at the King.
Sorry...I am sure that Elvis put his heart and soul into his dancing, which I love, but I am feeling having seen this video that, as is often claimed, the King was a tad derivative. But then, I am sure that James Brown was influenced by someone. James Brown was influenced by his preacher and Gospel singers apparently. Perhaps God is the ultimate source of all inspiration.
+CooManTunes Elvis died on the shitter. BFD. He couldn't polish James Brown's shoes let alone dance. A bunch of karate kicks on stage like a fucking moron. Michael Jackson? LOL! He didn't even own his own damn nose much less any dance moves!
+CooManTunes Perhaps we may allow that the King was the best entertainer but James Brown was the best dancer? (I bet there have been other great dancers since.... please inform me anyone). I like Elvis's karate kicks :-) But, in any event, I think his dancing was not anywhere near as good as that of James Brown. Michael Jackson probably did not "own" his moves, but he was good though, like Elvis he was a great entertainer. Did James Brown invent ("own") his moves or were they something that many others did less well before him? I have seen a moon walk video where a whole load of other guys were moon walking, well before Jackson. And are black guys genetically better at dancing? They seem to be better at running. Are they worse at swimming and cycling or is that just a function of who has the bikes and pools? Black people may be better at everything!
+timtak1 Black people may be better at everything? LMAO!!! What a terrible joke, you clown! James Brown was the last true original, but it's a FACT Elvis is better than anyone before and after him when it comes to looks, moves, charisma, voice, kindness, generosity, etc. The list goes on and on and on and on and on. He was the complete package and that's why he's called THE KING.
WOW! That's all I have to say. James Brown was a fucking revolution. His music and movement hits you right in the soul man. He energizes your every cell. I won't be able to sleep for the rest of the night now so that sucks but it's okay cause I'll just listen to Mind Power, The Boss, Down And Out In NYC and many more by the Funky One.
"James is my inspiration in life, he is my hero............... I got to put all his dances mixed up with my own....... #BigSmokeOG The very Best Rapper,singer,dancer,actor and entreprenuer of thiz Generation coming Soon!!! May the world look out!!!!"
I wish in the movie they would have captured all these moments in this clip -- I don't think they quite captured the man's evolution. They could have had the actor re-create all these snippets and whiz through time in a montage; it would have given the full impact of the GFOS's full-impact on the music industry. I think they missed the essence of the band, the magic of how they used to swing, dance, and twirl their trumpets. They over-emphasized James' micro-management and ego. I now it's hard to squeeze in 50 years of soul & funk but he did have a deeper impact on R&B -- he brought soul mainstream; invented funk; he inspired rap -- he was a complicated man but just needed more props. But you have to empathize with the producers -- who can play Soul Brother Number One besides Jimmy himself? And how do you keep a movie to 90 minutes for a man whose life was history, a comedy, and dare I say, even a tragedy? Christmas 2006 will always be a sad day. RIPGFOS.
What a work of pure ART. Prince, MJ, Chris Brown, and all the others really got their dance moves from this MAN. I just thank God that he was given the opportunity to be with us and to leave behind just a legend. Love you Mr. James Brown,
Michael Jackson was one of the worlds greatest and most talented entertainers. He came from time of choreographed dancing and yes he was the best around. James Brown 's dancing looks spontaneous and from the bottom of his soul. Those legs just moved to the beat and what endurance . When he was older and couldn't do the fancy dancing much anymore, but still had the voice; he brought a show = still was an awesome concert.
WAY to much talk about MJ. We all know he was influenced by Jame Brown and copied moves. Most of you that are from my era know this. Please show the respect Mr. Brown deserve for his originality and true showmanship. ....none like or ever will be.......good god,eeeeeeeeeeeoooooooow . ......get down with your bad super funky self.
First off: real men don't dance. They sit quietly in a corner with a beer in hand way from the dance floor. But IF they were to dance, they'd have to dance like James Brown.
philcracken Are you kidding me? "Real men"? Any dude that can dance like James Brown is gonna get so much action, when he moved the women went crazy. THAT is a real man.
philcracken the best part of a night out is watching drunk people dancing.its fuckin hilarious.i once attempted a james brown move and put my back out.
James brown was the man then came MJ and they would shut the dance floor down and broke so many barriers for blacks and I love and miss them both I could only wish to move as they did. MJ learned from James brown and always showed him respect rest in peace two legends

He's been my main man for 40+ years. Gotta have my daily James.
Nem sei o que falar. O cara é bom mesmo ... demais, contagiante, o máximo.
"Influenced" . . . now there's an understatement. :)
Love JB and The Famous Flames are pretty awesome too!
Purely the BEST EVER! Michael learned from this legend.
James Brown. 'out-a sight'.
Really nice moves. It's cool to see people like Sam Rockwell (now that MJ is dead) that keep his dance alive
Très bon montage,BRAVO
Legend. Had the moves. Love this man.
2:30 3:10 WHAT?!?!
the pinnacle of american culture right on
Bill Cosby groovin at 2:32
He inspired MJ to dance like that
You all need to research anyone can dance moves that are taught to them, but being a natural awesome DANCER, i think you will have to make a new list - - Remember Paula Abdul taught most of these people their stuff and their respective recordscompanies,
Cold
I honestly believe he was supposed to be born in the year 2068 😜
what's the song?
1:06 he looks like wayne brady!!! LMAO
The king! nothing less ...
The best part is that there is no rigid pattern to his moves. He just improvises around different styles; does whatever he feels. He is like a kung fu master of dancing.
Right, and it's that who make him more intense. No thought, only alive more than everybody else.
Hiya Tim from a different Timothy. 3-31-2022
He got seal shit on his shoes
The man who gave us Michael Jackson.
true exactly
before him , no one knows how to dance looks like :)
+Raimondas Umbrasas wrong. The Nicolas brothers.
newer heard about those , but they rly amazing, i wachet after your comment. thanks:)
Exactly
damn, brother was doing the robot before robots were even invented..
Michael Jackson copied many of his dance moves directly from James Brown but also invented some of his own, of course. I'd say James Brown is Michael's daddy when it comes to dancing.
lol
***** lol :D I totally agree with you thchillz. However, you are drunk. Go home. x)
+CooManTunes that's rude and wrong, but funny
He copied them but he perfected them.
He didnt invent anything. None of them did.
The ultimate master! The man whom every entertainer borrowed from.
Well said
m. saint mi
He is the baddest dancer and singer that I remember. I grew up with him we all tried to dance like him.. still have to try..ha, wish he was still alive😞 Canellas

JB, What a legend! As a die hard MJ fan, you can tell how much he was influenced by James Brown. These moves are sooo sick
That's right babe!!

The hardest working man in show biz. The Godfather of Soul.
I'm 100% convinced his legs are made of rubber
Tommy Bowles... Or some sort of flexible steel.
No theyre not
Derek Weinert TV it’s a joke 🤦🏾♂️
James Brown is timeless. His talent and ability to let his legs run wild on stage still amazes me to this day. SO Cool! This guy got soul
Dude is WAY too smooth.
I do not think there cannot be another James Brown. I grew up on his music I am still crazy about his music
James Brown looks like he just danced to what he felt in his soul at the time. Amazing rhythm from head to toe. loved dancing to J Browns music. Funk and soul to the core. He did this long before there was the moon walk. awesome!
Wanna see how Michael Jackson learned how to dance... Here ya go...

Wow, so Prince really studied James like a text book!
Michael Jackson or James Brown........you can't decide!!! RIP to them both. icons. legends.
Absolutely man but you don't even need to decide...
***** & Michael. But not Lil Kim, for sure...
Michael Jackson can’t do a split so it goes to James Brown by default lol

What a work of pure ART. Prince, MJ, Chris Brown, and all the others really got their dance moves from this MAN. I just thank God that he was given the opportunity to be with us and to leave behind just a legend. Love you Mr. James Brown,
Imagine James Brown as a Boxer> seriously.
+Ced Ric relax
jajajaj
Seth Bateman Fun fact:James Brown actually took boxing lessons
They don't make em' like JB no more lol
Amen!!!
the legendary michael jackson was influenced by the another legendary person james brown
James Brown GO HARD!!!!!!!!!!LOL
Michael Jackson was one of the worlds greatest and most talented entertainers. He came from time of choreographed dancing and yes he was the best around. James Brown 's dancing looks spontaneous and from the bottom of his soul. Those legs just moved to the beat and what endurance . When he was older and couldn't do the fancy dancing much anymore, but still had the voice; he brought a show = still was an awesome concert.
Can someone tell me which song is in this video?
It's the first time I'm listening to james Brown thanx to MJ, and I really like him!
This is called *If* *You* *Don’t* *Give* *A* *Doggone* *About* *It*
Wondering what was "wrong" for youtube in 2009 lol
i'll give my right eye to know all his moves.
So that's where Prince got the splits and rise on heels from!
james brown is the best for ever
Elvis Stole James Browns Whole Style As An Entertainer And Never Gave Him Any Credit CULTURE VULTURE
And thats also the reason why he was that good musician. He loved to dance, he felt the music, not just made it.
They were totally different in their styles. So there's no comparison.
Soul = James Brown
¡¡ The Best !!
James BROWN STANDS ALL BUT HIM SELF RESPECT UNTO YOU ALWAYS 💯 💪🏿 MY BROTHER. R. I. P🙏🏾🙏🏾
No doubt Mr James Brown danced a lot, in the art of their songs, and dances better than he, alone mesmo.Isso is a precious work of art.
He is a star,and will be.
WAY to much talk about MJ. We all know he was influenced by Jame Brown and copied moves. Most of you that are from my era know this. Please show the respect Mr. Brown deserve for his originality and true showmanship. ....none like or ever will be.......good god,eeeeeeeeeeeoooooooow . ......get down with your bad super funky self.

James Brown Makes It Look Easy, BUT Just Go Try To Copy His Cool Moves!!!
First off: real men don't dance. They sit quietly in a corner with a beer in hand way from the dance floor.
But IF they were to dance, they'd have to dance like James Brown.
LOL! excellent
philcracken Are you kidding me? "Real men"? Any dude that can dance like James Brown is gonna get so much action, when he moved the women went crazy. THAT is a real man.
philcracken the best part of a night out is watching drunk people dancing.its fuckin hilarious.i once attempted a james brown move and put my back out.
philcracken lmfao hear me
So true, real men are confident and proud of their moves, James Brown was an animal on the dance floor, he gave women heat flashes.
i didnt expect someone named michael jackson to admit it,anyway just stick to your opinion and lets leave it at that
It's like his legs were making their OWN Music
GOD DAMN. That ni_ga need to get that bad foot fixed! *Respect.
Nice suits. Nice shoes. Nice moves.

Sometimes, I fear that he may actually break his ankles,
but thank God, he never does.
=)
Is he Michael Jackson father??

Mystical, facinating, trance-inducing music.
JB was the truth. The innovator of most of what we see today.
James brown was the man then came MJ and they would shut the dance floor down and broke so many barriers for blacks and I love and miss them both I could only wish to move as they did. MJ learned from James brown and always showed him respect rest in peace two legends
Boneless looking legs
That must have ruined his joints
Its snowing on Mount Fuji

They didn't call him Mr. Dynomite for nothing!
GO JAMES BROWN!!!!!!!
You are blind. On his best day MJ couldn't move half as fast as JB did in his prime.
