  • This is the 2nd version of this song that I've uploaded. I realized after I had uploaded the other one that I had cut too much of the song at the beginning and it started too quickly with Ann singing. So I added a few seconds to the beginning to help it have a smoother start. I hope you enjoy!

    one of my favorites of all time. And to think she had broken her back and was strapped into a metal truss every night and then took the truss off, took pain killers and DANCED to make the film. Amazing

    My all time favourite female dancer of Hollywood's Golden Era. Her Neandertal Man in On The Town along with this and Too Darn Hot, are all showstoppers❤

    • @tracykitching426

      @WolfGirl04 yes of course! She said he was Nethanderal, but the song was Prehistoric Man

    • @wolfgirl0410
      @wolfgirl0410  Год назад +1

      She never once said neanderthal. She wants a prehistoric man.
      Modern man is not for me
      The movie star and dapper Dan
      Give me the healthy Joe
      From ages ago
      A prehistoric man...
      She always used the term prehistoric man. I have the song on my channel under my playlist for On the Town, if you'd like to rewatch the amazing dancing again. She really is amazing with her machine gun taps!

    She did this number in a back brace. Her husband threw her down the stairs and broke her back. She was a true professional.

    • @wolfgirl0410
      @wolfgirl0410  4 года назад +4

      Her back was broken before the movie's production process started, and the brace was worn for the auditions.

    • @allthatjazzspaz95
      @allthatjazzspaz95 4 года назад +12

      @@wolfgirl0410 yes but she said in interviews she still wore a brace in the final cut, as a back injury like that doesn't just "go away". Amazing, regardless!

      @wolfgirl0410  3 года назад +5

      Abusive people don't need reasons to do the things they do. They will always feel justified in doing anything they want, just because they wanted to. Definitely does NOT make it right!! A fight with a loved one NEVER deserves to turn violent on ANY level. Disagreement is one thing, but any type of abuse is wrong, fighting or not! Personally, I never heard WHY their fight escalated to such a level, so I can't specifically answer your question though.

    • @ascent8487
      @ascent8487 Год назад +1

      I guess she was a true professional. Seems to me if your back is broken, it might be okay to value your long term health though. Good grief.

    I’m embarrassed to say this is the first time seeing this. I heard the song on the radio yesterday & Shazam’d it which led me here.
    Now off to find the movie.

    Thank you so much for this. Have you seen the rehearsal footage of Ann, in dance studio, and recording studio when she recreated this number in 1987 for the "100th Birthday of Hollywood" TV special...at the age of 64? Its here on YT.."Ann Miller Rehearsal and Performance".

    • @wolfgirl0410
      @wolfgirl0410  5 лет назад

      I enjoyed them both as well, but the few extra seconds at the beginning for this version helps, at least in my mind, to keep the song from feeling too rushed into. Lol

    She could allegedly do 500 taps a minute. After watching this number I believe it! In her autobio she illustrates how she dubbed all her taps in time to the steps on the screen. Dubbing is perfect.

    • @wolfgirl0410
      @wolfgirl0410  4 года назад +5

      I hadn't heard that. Just went and looked up trivia on her on IMDB. It says that she auditioned for her role in this movie while wearing a steel back brace due to having broken her back. Further investigation showed that she delivered her baby with a broken back, and that she had broken her back in a fight with her husband. All of that just made me have even more astounding respect for her amazing talents and strength. She was beyond strong! She was a Wonder Woman in her own right!

    • @taralorangesrenssen6799

      WolfGirl04 her husband threw her down the stairs. And she had a stillborn.

    • @wolfgirl0410
      @wolfgirl0410  4 года назад +4

      But still, to have gone through all that and continued to do so well in her dance. To be able to not let depression or fear stop her from persevering. She was just so amazing and strong on so many levels!
