    Difficult to explain to those not alive at the time how much fun this craze was. Once you learned this simple dance, you didn't want to stop. Everyone was laughing, smiling, having a great time.

      As a 24 year old who recently learned the twist- if paired with music of the time, I feel like i can feel a fraction of the feeling yall had back then. ❤

      @@carycimino7699 I remember the last of that transition to color programming. Sometimes an announcer would say the name of the show and say something like, "...now in color", and a still frame would have the words "in color" with a different color for each letter. Having a color TV was a big deal back then.

    This is first song I remember dancing to. This song was playing on the radio and our mother was having us dance to it. Our parents getting a kick out of watching us do the twist. They both gave it a shot to show us how to do it. This was in about 1960 when I was 3 or 4 years old. The 50s and 60s such a great time to be a kid and grow up.

    Certainly one of the greatest songs of all time! Today's teenager cannot imagine how this song hit the people in 1960 and influenced them for their whole life. It was not only the music and the dance. It was a groundbreaking, happy and completely new feeling of life which no one has ever seen before (& maybe till today!)

    Around the mid-1990's, Chubby Checker performed at a trade show here in California. One of my co-workers from the small company we worked at, jumped up on the stage (un-invited) and started twisting with Chubby Checker. Prior to this, she had a few adult beverages and decided "what the heck!" I was sure Chubby would have her removed. To my surprise, Chubby didn't seem to mind. In fact, they were bumping hips towards the end of the song. The entire audience enjoyed the impromptu performance. Chubby was a good sport.

      The Fabulous Fifties & the Swinging Sixties were the best two decades of the second half of the 20th century. There was an economic boom & prosperity in Europe, America, Japan & elsewhere. Till the early 60s, there was optimism about the future and a general sense of well-being. Have a look at movies and documentaries from those two decades. You'll have an idea of how life was back then, including people who took pride in how they dressed and looked. It all changed in the late 60s.
