With very special guest Gordon Webster
This version of Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen is great and the dancing outstanding. Thanks for sharing.
I've always wanted to see a swing dancing short and never realized it :D
I swing danced for the first time last night and it was one of the funniest night of my life. I'm I'm high school
It's coming back and will be much fun !!!!
It remind me of the way it felt when I visited London and there were free expressive scenes on the street, such as people walking by and inviting me to walk with them, seeing a couple embracing on an escalator, men calling out lovely if I said hello , and a musician dressed in an animal costume playing heavy British rock in the Tube(subway) for money. It was Christmas time. 1993.Loved it.
This was brilliant!! Very whimsical and wonderful, plus the style it was shot in was beautiful, and the transitions were smooth. The contrast of colors against the scenery was also really cool. It makes you want to break out into spontaneous dance!
a competition.... i had no idea... I love it
Very nice, good to see your still going.
Name of the song is Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen =)
The song is called Bei Mir Bist Du Schon, an old Yiddish song . Recorded with English lyrics by the Andrew Sisters .
thanks JPBPUNK for let"n us know who did this version just wish wife and myself could
dance this we love all you young"n get and enjoy your music no matter what it is
moldy oldy from THUNDER DOWNUNDER

Joyfulness. Once common in European cities like London and Paris. RIP
Swing Dancing in London - Super !!!
Boy we can sure tell it was 9 yrs ago BUT GREAT JOB DANCING
Great introduction, well done script, nice editing, great set-up, thank you for uploading. May I suggest to include more of the lower body (leg/foot work) if you are filming dancing as it is an "essential" part of Swing Dancing (all dances actually). Nice work, Ciao, L
lancelot1953 May I suggest you must shoot the entire figure at all times. No cut off midriffs, no close ups of the feet, nothing.
Just voted for you. I can already predict you winning by a landslide :D
We used to do what you call swing dance
As slow bop to rock & roll
whats the name of this music where can ibuy it i love the swing of the tune
its just great to see people enjoying themselves yes sir im a mouldy oldy
who cares just enjoy looks like 15 tone deaf people poor babys cheers
omg... where can i get that beautifull clothes??? swing and lindy hop are awesome dances ^_^ LOVE IIIIIITTTTT!!! And I dance it
Is swing making a comeback, late the late 90s?
If you dance well, almost ANY man or woman will gladly dance with you - and maybe more. In my experience with a lifetime of dancing is that it the absolute best way to meet women, and make friends, too. I have found that the East Coast style of swing dancers are the friendliest - the West Coast style of swing dancers, not so much.
Классный танец. Без физподготовки хрен сможеж.
Voting!
Great music and dancing and I am watching it over and over again. I wish they have done something like this for the subsequent London Swing festivals. By the way who is the band?
It's time for another update Rob, please :]
~Tye
What happened to you?
ok you london hoppers are pretty cute! I want to come dance with you! Can anyone host me?
Is that the best you can do
The best dancers are from north England
Birmingham Manchester
We did that dance 6o years ago
Gordon Webster - Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen
Thumbs up although I'm too late to vote. As for the camera-work: Fred Astaire insisted his dance numbers be filmed full-frame. Let's see those happy feet. Less good are headshots in a dance number.
Dhalia Guzman Quite so. Gene Kelly ditto. Enough said.
ALL WANTED TO DANCE WITH THE LADY IN RED
RIP YUMMY ICE CREAM
When you’re eating an ice cream on Embankment and you turn round to see a woman dancing on Lothbury!
THE CORNETTO I COULD HAVE ATE THAT
SUPER
THE TARDIS!!!!!

Tune : Bei mir bist du schoen
For a second there I thought that was George Osbourne at 2.28.
what is the name of the song ?
Music by…?
Something Strictly Personal,guys:I walked the Same Path,back in Early August,Y2K, alone but not lonely!Now,I Know ...Why!Note the Capitals, Please.I,even,have a photo, taken by the 'undersigned', gotta search My Family Album,same spot where the Video starts.Until then,I look at this each morning,to REMIND me who I am!Love,B.
Why do my comments keep getting deleted . That is twice now . People have asked the name of this music and I told them, the origin of the tune and the name of the group who made it famous . I see the person who asked is deleted also . Is it wrong to answer questions on here ?
paacer. No, nothing wrong. I have no idea why they would have gotten deleted.
HOW DARE SHE WASTE PERFECTLY GOOD ICE CREAM
triggered
Normally, I'd agree but that was stunt ice cream.
That what i was thinking
I can't find a recording of this music on ITunes.
Look harder. The Andrews Sisters had a monster hit with it.
who's the artist??
If I may ask, besides the music how can I tell the difference between a swing and Jazz?
King Arthur Swing is one of the many possible rhythms in jazz. On the other hand some swing isn't really jazz at all ...
Hmmm how come everyone's just doing swing out variations? Aren't their other moves in lindy? :-p
Yes, but this is Swing Patrol, it's aimed at a particular kind of person if you want to be a purist, there are other longest established independent and dedicated teachers and club nights out there.
I don't particularly like how this looks, and it's really easy to be snobby about it in just the same way I used to be snobby about modern jive, but I guess it has it's place and it's getting people dancing. Is to say that dancers who have learnt with swing Patrol do stand out on the dance floor, but not necessarily for their finesse.
Awesome! Love to see this. But this is back in the day when London was for the English.
Who's the singer?
What's the song playing in the background?
+RainSaffy123 "Bei Mir Bist Du Shoen", by the Andrews Sisters.
what is the name of the song ? PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Its a an old Yiddish song called Bei Mir Bist Du Schoein by Sholom Secunda and made famous by the Andrew Sisters .
paacer Sanks ... MUCHISIMAS GRACIAS..
Wasteless Murder of a perfectly good Cornetto
Peoples! You HAVE to show some knickers in this type of dancing!
Was this supervised by the nuns!
Rhythm, rhythm!
Maybe they wern't wearing any?
Back then possible - today never - the prude society has returned.
At 2m 05s you can see she has black knickers on if you freeze the clip.
Thumbs down to this comment. Bravo to them.
what about her ice cream!?
Островчето на пл. Хелзинки е подходящо за такова шоу !

Fedora Alert.
Where can I find the best Lindy Hop school in London?
It's bigger on the inside
Once I was talking down the street and me and a girl I’d never met before bumped into each other and then spontaneously started swing dancing. Now I'm a registered sex offender.
I hate videos that flip from scene to scene in .4 seconds.
Great video, worst singing of "Bei Mir..." that I have ever heard.
why did you have to ruin a perfectly good ice cream ha? was that necessary ? >:(
It dont mean a thing if it sint got that swing
ITS BIGGER ON THE INSIDE.
She is way too cute 4 that dweeb, she would have never chased him.
I agree
Hmmm . . . the message I got was that she was chasing that moment of 'Ooo, fun!' that she had whilst dancing.
someone is talking with a lot of experience :)
Women love men who can swing.
Judging peoples' looks? It's about swing dancing.
Back in the day before Islam......
You need to go dance like that in the Muslim neighborhood
Why? That pig prick all ar wouldn't like it, but who gives a sh*t.
the dude ban religion world wide problem solved
This is pretty crappy and uninteresting.
What is the song being played ?
