    I’ve watched this so many times, it’s brilliant.
    It’s not just the dance moves, the attitude etc, it’s everything- the outfits, setting, expressions… brilliant and easily my favourite version of this.

    Watched this for the umpteenth time. What impresses me is that there is a whole lotta ballet up in the choreography, along with the Frug. I imagine several ballet dancers wanting to dance this just to take a break from the “regular,” sometimes staid, choreography they’re used to dancing and enjoying the hell out of it.

    This should come with an addiction warning. As much as it is an hommage to Fosse, it doesn't look dated. The sass from the ponytail dancer is perfect, her personality makes the whole thing. Clothing is perfect take from Rich man's frug. It is perfect fun-and this from someone who doesn't even dance.

Having found this I thought I'd check out other frugs, and there seems to be a ton of them, with many of them done to this song as well. Let me just none of them come even remotely close to demonstrating the same level of professionalism, precision or artistry as this.
