      😘@@IfThisIsLev yes and I was wondering if and I know dancers can just be in their own zone : ) and perhaps for the video you were focus on that, though it would have taken the video into a much higher happier place. You know? So much that would have said...generations together, sharing the happiness by making eye contact etc. Is this type of dancing actually just done solo though sharing the same space? Asking truly cause I know here, usa Cambridge MA when we dance alone it's "unusual". I will say there was one club when I was an adult that on the Thursday nights when it got jammed packed, one girl caught my eye cause she would just get out there doing her thing an finally I realized what the heck am I waiting for...also I noticed women would hit the floor dancing together. Whatever, hope this doesn't cone across like I"m criticizing, I am not, just watching easy to have an "opinion", love ya!! ☮💖

    Hello. Not really sure where to start, to be honest - I used to be an actor (I was in a car accident which put paid to that), and in 2000 I was lucky enough to be in a play about Northern Soul, which toured around the country. I knew some of the tunes beforehand, and in order to learn the dance moves, me and the rest of the cast went to a few all nighters (Rotherham, Bridlington, Scarborough) while the play was still in rehearsal, and the thing that struck me, apart from the awesome music and the incredible moves, was the passion. The sheer, unbridled joy - a shared love and ownership of the music and all that it meant. And that, dear stranger, is what I just saw. Your absolute joy was so beautifully and perfectly communicated - it was so infectious in fact it got the passer-by dancing too.
    I don't know who you are, and I know we'll never meet, but I want you to know that I love you to bits! Yes, there'll be detractors - I've read some of the comments below - but you've got a passion, and you're showing it and sharing it - first locally, then globally. Nice one. Don't ever change. xxx

    After 52 seconds into the video features Clifford T. Frazier of the Moods singing an old song from his early days of recording. CLIFFORD FRAZIER: Singer/Actor/Writer Cliff started his professional singing career in 1967 with a group known as the Notations. He left that group to start recording with the group The Green Berets, who charted billboard at #34 nationally and abroad. Many of the songs recorded are still charting in the UK to this day. Cliff has toured with the Wild Onion Storytellers organization, studied voice at the Chicago Conservatory of Music. He has worked as an actor in over 12 major motion pictures, was a primary character in the radio soap opera “Garnd Blvd.” and he’s been seen in cameo roles on several network television shows and TV commercials. He has toured with the Black Ensemble Theater Company, and was nominated for a Jefferson Award for his role as the king in the play “The Other Cinderella.” He is a published poet and songwriter. He has written songs for the legendary Coasters and the DelVikings. Now with the Moods, Cliff sings first tenor, baritone, bass and lead singer.
