Take a look at the first Moonwalk, in 1955: Bill Bailey (watch from 2:00 in this video: ruclips.net/video/y71njpDH3co/видео.html). MJ wasn't even born yet.

This guy is Harold Lloyd 1893 to 1971 and he was right up there with Chaplin and Keaton at the time. I like him the most! Correction: Feb 19, 2022. No it is not Harold Lloyd. Apologies. My bad.
@@areyouavinalaff I have read that it might be a guy called Jack Stanford, but he had a very different style, no where near as smooth as this. Who is this guy ?
@@ChubbyChecker182 no idea who it is, been looking around but can't find anything on him. The film is british pathé and they have it uploaded on their channel, in their description they say in France he's called le danseur elastique and that he "looks like" Harold Lloyd, but they don't actually say who he is... but I do know it's neither Harold Lloyd nor Jack Stanford. I'm wondering if he's a French guy touring in Canada or something.
MJ had so much inspiration from the great stars back then. The good thing is that, he made his own signature in music and in dancing. He gathered all the pieces together.
SO RIGHT BEFORE HIM THEY MOVED BACK AND FORTH LIKE MOTOWN,he gave dancers another Life, videos, also on stage with Janet,britney,usher,Chris brown,ECT.
I'm pretty sure its Harold Lloyd. Looks just like him and I know he was a dancer. Jack Stanford had his 'eccentric "rag" dance' that has a similar sort of style but he does not look like this fine fellow at all.
Yes.in one of the interviews he said i piked clues from them and adapted it to my style and music..mj fundamentally was a musician dance he said allowed him to express his music best
#Sho nuff, it really ain't!! That's fire though!! We all really doing the same things over and over, directly and indirectly!!! Love it though, Ion get tired. I likes to go and go!!!!!

@@balemkarap5090 a really good point to make which i read: "To say there is nothing new under the sun does not ignore inventions or advances in technology; rather, these innovations do not amount to any basic change in the world.

The dancer's name is Jack Stanford. He was born Charles Finnegan Williams in Colchester, Essex, on June 26, 1900, the son of Harold Hearne Williams, a chemist, and Eliza Finnegan. Out of respect for this great dancer who revolutionized the stages of half the world in the 1920s, 30s and 40s, it would be nice if the creator of this channel had mentioned him. I think that many of the dancers of urban dance, funky and of course Michael Jackson owe a lot to Jack Stanford.
Michael always used to say "Study the Greats, and become Greater". That was his philosophy, and he did just that with music, dance, film and showmanship. He drew inspiration, and copied from others and built on it and made everything his own, but he left enough of the original to pay tribute to those who inspired him. A lot of his work is a quiet nod to those who came before him.
From this clip - it looks like he was experimenting with various movements. Definitely a pioneer. MJ was able to eliminate the bad moves, and make the good moves better - more polished, precise, complimented by an arrangement of music that makes you feel like you're watching time stop.

So great. MJ always paid homage to the old schoolers and new schoolers. He never took credit for his dance moves. He always stated who he was inspired by. He loved Fred Astaire, Gene Kelly, James Brown. Jackie Wilson, etc. So cool to see how he incorporated all those inspirational people into his own style and a great tribute to them at the same time. I see the modern day artists doing this for him, such as Usher, Chris Brown, Ciara, Justin Timberlake, JLO, Bruno Mars, Beyonce, etc
I love and appreciate the biggest talents like Fred Astaire, James Brown and Elvis Presley but Michael Jackson was an evolution and simply achieved perfection. I am quite certain that this resulted from natural talent, intense work ethic and a rough childhood that drove him to this obsession to achieve perfection. He was the best, remains the best and will always be the best because you can't surpass perfection.
He always studied the greatest innovators of dance, choreography, music, theatre. All of MJ's influences came together in his own unique style. He was a student of the greats. Long live the KING! Xoxoxo
I would have appreciated if MJ had clearly pronounced this man's name. This is more than an inspiration, this is the original choreography. I think more MJ fans should see it, I'm sorry I never did before, but I'm grateful I've seen it just now.
I think he did. Sadly we can only see it from the front here, but to me this looks like the treadmill-move that MJ did almost every time before the final moonwalk during the Billie Jean dance break at the end of the song. Watch here; I put a time stamp: ruclips.net/video/2gCUNdiLcPU/видео.htmlm22s
In 114 seconds, he gives miraculous #moves His versatility, this clip, with precision #proves With his whole body, he does true #magic His dancing style easily defies pure #logic He mesmerizes our eyes in all the #ways He does it also with a stunning #grace He is wearing glasses and is #dancing I can't, but say, his style is just #amazing "Brilliant" is the only word to #utter This is in dancing a great #chapter!

Same guy who hung off a giant clock on the side of a building. He was also missing his thumb and index finger on one hand. From a bomb blast thought to be a prop. Didn't slow him down a bit.
Ya can't be the king of pop if you COPY everything someone else has done cause then you're not an original, you are a plagiarist. The moonwalk was done by some fella in the 30's.
@@stonystoner895 *Michael Jackson is the greatest artist in history. He didn't copy anything. Moonwalker was inspired by children who danced in the ghetto. No one in history has made a better and complete Moonwalker like Michael. You can cry he is the greatest arist You are jealous.* 😭
@@stonystoner895 then look up African American footwork in the 1920s..this guy isn’t the first to do a lot of these things either..he probably just perfected it just like Michael Jackson did later on.
@@erpmoc8242 No it's true MJ said himself he got inspirations from the past and also from the gueto Old dancers from 30s/60s like James Brown/Fred Asteire and etc MJ improved them and bring back to the 70s/80s/90s (with his own spin on it and message) And it was great
Well I have also heard that MJ learned a lot from the mime Shields of Shields and Yarnell. He had regular routines of robotic dancing and it was stated that there were actual times they spent together practicing
IM sure MJ wanted to bring the best to stage, He worke Extremely Hard, but i remember seeing J5 on Ed Sullivan show.. and I knew he would be Great. HE WAS AMAZINGLY TALENTED @ 9
@@ralphgonsalves7944 I had the very good fortune of working for a concert promoter in the 1970's, and we put on several J5 shows during one of their tours. MJ must have been around 15 or so. I watched from backstage, and all I can say is that I have never seen children working as hard as those youngsters did (IIRC the two younger ones who were still not teens yet were included in the show).
The lesson with MJ is this: study your craft, no matter what you do. If you're a dancer, study the great dancers that came before you, emulate and then innovate. Same can be said for any designer, any electrician, etc. Don't just do your job - Study your craft.

If you watch the old videos of the original people from America dancing, you would clearly see he mimics and copied their dance moves. He is good but he is missing rhythm and soul.
He is my grandmother’s second cousin, my father remembers going to uncle Lloyds house . I don’t know if he was referring Harolds father or Harold. I know some people are going yeah right, he was talked about many times in my childhood. I’m just glad he is still remembered. He was a pioneer of stunt comedy. He can be seen wearing glove(s) in later films, it was a prosthetic a finger was lost due to the fact that real explosives were used in film .One of Harold’s signature looks is his glasses. Not sure if this is him though, then again I’m not familiar with a lot of silent film. He did wear a glove(s) in some of his films so he was like Jackson in a way.
My brother and I used to get yelled at back in the 70's when were 12-13 yrs old, for laughing too loud at HL movies late at night. Now I binge watch HL movies and documentaries on YT sometimes. It wasn't until recently I learned about his finger injury and that the films were only released for TV broadcast around the time my brother and I were watching them.
That butterfly 🦋 move !! Whoa 😳 outstanding !!😇 way ahead of his time.. Michael created some other artists moves and combined them ..The rest was all his own.. A Legendary masterpiece… that man danced from the heart ❤️ RIP Michael.. your Legendary style will continue to live on in our hearts and minds.🙏🏼

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻Harold Lloyd was the best silent film star .. He did everything the others wouldn't - or couldn't .. He made me laugh so much more than Chaplin , Keaton , Laurel and Hardy , ..more than anybody .😃😂🤣🤣. from that era .. or ANY era for that matter .😂🤣😂🤣🤣. the Best Silent Film Star .. The BEST motion picture star .. In fact .. just my humble opinion.. More than any star living today as of 2021 !!! .. No Person that is a celeb today can even begin to compare to Harold Lloyd ..😋 The ONLY true GENIUS of Comedy , He started a whole genre ... The First ..The Original.. the originator of what is now known as 'Romantic Comedy ... also did very well at suspenseful melodrama and 'film - noir' .🤪. 'The Kid Brother' a superb example.🤠.It appeared that he really went through hell making that film.😲☹️😕🤯😬..A man **Multitalented** beyond words..beyond belief..

Good ol Harold Lloyd lmao this dude was hilarious .. Extremely innovative and inventive .. I always wished him and Chaplin did something big but he's def a #Legend !!!!💯✌🏾
Sick moves for the 30s, especially the knee work and on the ground 0:48 , he loved the marionette dances, like today when we cut the invisible string, Loyd was doing it hundred years ago
@@MeneTekelUpharsin: Yes. Many people incorrectly think that this is Harold Lloyd. This is, in fact, Jack Stanford. Lloyd, like Chaplin, had his imitators and lookalikes. This guy, with the outfit, glasses, and hat, took on a look that was popular in the day. He just happens to bear a resemblance to Harold Lloyd. Stanford specialized in this type of dance routine. It wasn't a common bit then, so no one else was doing it. Look up Jack Stanford. He's described as a cross between Charlie Chaplin and Harold Lloyd.
This is older than the 1930s ... I am guessing early - mid 1910s..the lettered intro card would not be necessary in the 1930s .. because the 1930s had sound recording by that time 🎬🎙️🎥 🙂... 1927 was the first sound film... I think it was an Al Jolson film short... him singing..
Whenever I view videos like this. It's as if I'm viewing bits and pieces of the movement of human physiology evolving and improving. The way that all these dance moves have transitioned into techniques over the decades of dance and rhythm. The vigor of youth is lasting longer and longer as we minutely inch up on the evolutionary ladder.
Wow! I wonder if Michael ever saw this and got some of his moves from this! He could have cause he loved these old comedians! This was perfect to this song!
Just like the "moon walk" is old. It's been done a long time ago, during the jazz era. There was even a female dancer that was the queen of the "moon walk".
😄😄Oh shit this is spooky asf and playin Mike's music too!...Thought: Someone should do a side by side with Mike and this Dude to this Music that would be cool ❤

@@Facts-Over-Feelings oh he himself stated that he learned the dance from watching the greats and kids in the street. Even you cannot say for sure if he hasn't seen him. He saw talent, and not the race. And there is no need to shout.

Thanks for this!! There were so many great Black, White, Indigenous, Romani, Asian & so many other brilliant dancers at that time ( & through history) learning from each other on show circuits, around camp fires, front porches, on travels & at celebrations. Very few were filmed, but you can still find some on RUclips. The great Harold Lloyd also learned from them and added his artistry. Amazing how we continue to learn!
Janet said she and Michael when they were young would watch these classic performers like Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers which they had a love for. She even featured one in the video All Right With Me.
@@gerardmcmillan8591 Cab Callaway, Cyd Charisse, and Heavy D made cameos in the classic music video, the story centered mainly around Callaway, whom Janet and her dance companions are going to meet, after discovering he was performing in town, at the end of the video the real Callaway gives her back her watch that she lost at the premiere.

I think he did. Sadly we can only see it from the front here, but to me this looks like the treadmill-move that MJ did almost every time before the final moonwalk during the Billie Jean dance break at the end of the song. Watch here; I put a time stamp: ruclips.net/video/2gCUNdiLcPU/видео.htmlm22s
I think he did.
Funny to think he was probably looked at as a crazy person since there literally was no music he could be dancing to like that from his time.
History has shown that most people who become revered and considered legends are generally not fully appreciated during their own lifetime.
@@ATLienForLife man, imagine if what Michael got was only part of what he deserved...I can't wait to see how much more his music spreads
@@Yemeno45 True that. And I've always said the same thing about Prince.
There was great music to dance to at that time-- the Jazz age was in full bloom..
@@cowisdom1 not like that though....
I'm 57 and I still miss M.J. and his music. He was taken from us way to early 😞
I am a big fan of MJ. I feel this guy's move is genious and unique. Amazing!!
Hey bud, got some M.J. style music coming out hit my channel up thx!!
Harold Lloyd is hilarious! I love this almost as much as I love him in the "Grandma's Boy" movie! 🕺🤣
Was that a silent film,?
@@jenniferrock1585 not after she was done...😏
@@jenniferrock1585 - Yes, "Grandma's Boy" is one of Harold Lloyd's funniest silent films.
Except that this isn't Harold Lloyd. Look again.
This is Jack Stanford.
Michael Jackson is the .... Jack Stafford ..of the 1980s.... Not the other way around ...😊.. just my opinion
Wow!!! Reminds me of how amazing Michael was. He had the gift like this guy.
In 114 seconds, he gives miraculous #moves
His versatility, this clip, with precision #proves
With his whole body, he does true #magic
His dancing style easily defies pure #logic
He mesmerizes our eyes in all the #ways
He does it also with a stunning #grace
He is wearing glasses and is #dancing
I can't, but say, his style is just #amazing
"Brilliant" is the only word to #utter
This is in dancing a great #chapter!

Art is always re imagined as time goes on, copied, or improved it's all in appreciation of the past Artists 😊
He’s amazing, but Michael truly had his own style.
Same for me
Michael Jackson studied all the great entertainer of the past. But he stole nothing from them. He had his own style.
@@gianca60 Taught to him by Jeffrey Daniel.
I 💖 MJ ✌😃
no it was taught to him
but he was good
Everyone has something in common with somebody they've never seen. Walk, talk, gestures, dance ...
#Word, that's fire.🔥🔥🔥 Seen a dude the other day, as testament to this fact, that danced better than M and talked a little like him too. That's because God created us ONE BIG FAMILY, actually we all related. Descendents of Eve and Adam. # The 1930s Michael Jackson 🕵🏼♂️🕵🏻♂️🖤🖤🌚💩
@@earnestinecole4030 maybe Michael is alive and it was Michael himself?🤔
Same guy who hung off a giant clock on the side of a building. He was also missing his thumb and index finger on one hand. From a bomb blast thought to be a prop. Didn't slow him down a bit.
My favorite out of all the silent stars.
Harray for Harold Lloyd
I guess this isn't Harold Lloyd. This is Jack Stanford.
Inspiration of King of Pop!
Ya can't be the king of pop if you COPY everything someone else has done cause then you're not an original, you are a plagiarist. The moonwalk was done by some fella in the 30's.
@@stonystoner895 *Michael Jackson is the greatest artist in history. He didn't copy anything. Moonwalker was inspired by children who danced in the ghetto. No one in history has made a better and complete Moonwalker like Michael. You can cry he is the greatest arist You are jealous.* 😭
@@stonystoner895 then look up African American footwork in the 1920s..this guy isn’t the first to do a lot of these things either..he probably just perfected it just like Michael Jackson did later on.
@@erpmoc8242 No it's true
MJ said himself he got inspirations from the past and also from the gueto
Old dancers from 30s/60s like James Brown/Fred Asteire and etc
MJ improved them and bring back to the 70s/80s/90s (with his own spin on it and message)
And it was great
@@erpmoc8242 he did copy tho
This dude is smooth; great dance moves and improvisation as he danced.
Well I have also heard that MJ learned a lot from the mime Shields of Shields and Yarnell. He had regular routines of robotic dancing and it was stated that there were actual times they spent together practicing
#Gire, so great and so cool. The trivia is too much. Putting me in a zone.# The 1930s Michael Jackson 🕵🏼♂️🕵🏻♂️🖤🖤🌚💩
IM sure MJ wanted to bring the best to stage, He worke Extremely Hard, but i remember seeing J5 on Ed Sullivan show.. and I knew he would be Great. HE WAS AMAZINGLY TALENTED @ 9
@@ralphgonsalves7944 I had the very good fortune of working for a concert promoter in the 1970's, and we put on several J5 shows during one of their tours. MJ must have been around 15 or so.
I watched from backstage, and all I can say is that I have never seen children working as hard as those youngsters did (IIRC the two younger ones who were still not teens yet were included in the show).
This gives me so much Joy watching it, and he's smooth with it🤓
The lesson with MJ is this: study your craft, no matter what you do. If you're a dancer, study the great dancers that came before you, emulate and then innovate. Same can be said for any designer, any electrician, etc. Don't just do your job - Study your craft.
I love the outward palms at the end, reminiscent of the pose that MJ would do at the end of a lot of performances
How can you not love Harold Lloyd, wow so flexible and years ahead of his time, a comedy genius!
Except that this isn't Harold Lloyd. Look again.
This is Jack Stanford.
This guy could have taught MJ a move or two...oh wait, he did😂
MJ took notes!! RIP king of pop!!
Outstanding! Can definitely see where MJ could mimic this. Perfect!
Janet said she and Michael when they were younger followed and loved the older dancers/performers like Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers.
@@gerardmcmillan8591 AFRICANS AND BLACK AMERICANS HAVE BEEN DOING DANCES LIKE THIS AND BREAK DANCING STYLES LONG BEFORE THE CAMERA WAS EVER PUT ON THEM AND WHITES WOULD IMITATE THEM. WHITES WOULD ALSO PUT THERE FACES ON BLACK MUSIC ALBUMS TO. NOTHING NEW.
VERY FEW PEOPLE CAN'T EVEN COME CLOSE TO MOVING LIKE THAT IN TODAY'S TALENT SHOW OFFS !
Haha! This was amazing!! The song was perfectly in sync to this guy's phenomenal dance moves. 1930s MJ for real lol. Loved it!
If you watch the old videos of the original people from America dancing, you would clearly see he mimics and copied their dance moves. He is good but he is missing rhythm and soul.
Amazingly 👏🏾 Done! No Wonder Mj was Inspired!💜💜💜
My grandfather and I used to watch Harold Lloyd when I was a kid and I'm not going to lie we loved it.
0:12 When you are in a forest and feels something scratching your leg
He is my grandmother’s second cousin, my father remembers going to uncle Lloyds house . I don’t know if he was referring Harolds father or Harold. I know some people are going yeah right, he was talked about many times in my childhood. I’m just glad he is still remembered. He was a pioneer of stunt comedy. He can be seen wearing glove(s) in later films, it was a prosthetic a finger was lost due to the fact that real explosives were used in film .One of Harold’s signature looks is his glasses. Not sure if this is him though, then again I’m not familiar with a lot of silent film. He did wear a glove(s) in some of his films so he was
like Jackson in a way.
Follow up this is Harold Lloyd the name of the clip is The Elastic Man to those who are interested.
My brother and I used to get yelled at back in the 70's when were 12-13 yrs old, for laughing too loud at HL movies late at night. Now I binge watch HL movies and documentaries on YT sometimes. It wasn't until recently I learned about his finger injury and that the films were only released for TV broadcast around the time my brother and I were watching them.
@@SandySez laugh loud and free
That's interesting 🙂
So cool. Lloyd was one of my favorites! I enjoyed Lloyd and Keaton the most of the silent comics.
This guy indirectly invented break dancing
0:50
Es genial, que elasticidad, parece un dibujito animado! Michael Jackson, quizas se inspiró en él...🤔😄👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
@James Hama I love you too
Wow! Such a talented dancer!!! Looks like he beats every one else even MJ.
Wowderful. What a fantastic creator of movement,wildly wowderful. Then, Harold's other genius. A STAR . Great posting.
I know the gifted and talented when I see them. This guy's both!!! 🕴🏽
MICHAEL JACKSON ACTUALLY USED TO WATCH VIDEOS OF HAROLD LLOYD TO PICK UP ON HIS DANCE STEPS 👍
That butterfly 🦋 move !! Whoa 😳 outstanding !!😇 way ahead of his time.. Michael created some other artists moves and combined them ..The rest was all his own.. A Legendary masterpiece… that man danced from the heart ❤️ RIP Michael.. your Legendary style will continue to live on in our hearts and minds.🙏🏼
I'm watching on MJ'S anniversary of death 😭
Not me.
Perfect example of entertainment devolving vs evolving....

The man sold his soul to Satan for success. God is watching him in Hell.

Amazing dancer
That's true.
This is Harold Lloyd, one of the greatest, great stuntman and comedian. They don't make them like this anymore.
Hello beautiful
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻Harold Lloyd was the best silent film star .. He did everything the others wouldn't - or couldn't .. He made me laugh so much more than Chaplin , Keaton , Laurel and Hardy , ..more than anybody .😃😂🤣🤣. from that era .. or ANY era for that matter .😂🤣😂🤣🤣. the Best Silent Film Star .. The BEST motion picture star .. In fact .. just my humble opinion.. More than any star living today as of 2021 !!! .. No Person that is a celeb today can even begin to compare to Harold Lloyd ..😋 The ONLY true GENIUS of Comedy , He started a whole genre ... The First ..The Original.. the originator of what is now known as 'Romantic Comedy ... also did very well at suspenseful melodrama and 'film - noir' .🤪. 'The Kid Brother' a superb example.🤠.It appeared that he really went through hell making that film.😲☹️😕🤯😬..A man **Multitalented** beyond words..beyond belief.. Truly an astonishing individual.. 😀😃😎😊😎😁...An amazing individual in a class by Himself ... The real Cinema Teacher ..of all others to follow ..💪🏻🤳..🤴🏻..Long Live King Harold ...🗿.There will **Never** be another like Him..unfortunately....🎓❤️ 🙏🏻🕯️🌹💢I am So looking forward to Judgement Day .🌝☀️💢. He will be back...💢🧥🎩🎓❣️👍🏻👍🏻That's Right .. He Will...

Good ol Harold Lloyd lmao this dude was hilarious .. Extremely innovative and inventive .. I always wished him and Chaplin did something big but he's def a #Legend !!!!💯✌🏾
Sick moves for the 30s, especially the knee work and on the ground 0:48 , he loved the marionette dances, like today when we cut the invisible string, Loyd was doing it hundred years ago
Except that this isn't Harold Lloyd. Look again.
This is Jack Stanford.
@@randallulrich So multiple people were doing this type of stuff? I see many people thinking this is Harold Lloyd.
@@MeneTekelUpharsin: Yes. Many people incorrectly think that this is Harold Lloyd. This is, in fact, Jack Stanford.
Lloyd, like Chaplin, had his imitators and lookalikes. This guy, with the outfit, glasses, and hat, took on a look that was popular in the day. He just happens to bear a resemblance to Harold Lloyd. Stanford specialized in this type of dance routine. It wasn't a common bit then, so no one else was doing it.
Look up Jack Stanford. He's described as a cross between Charlie Chaplin and Harold Lloyd.
Amazing, way ahead of his time, very talented. 👍✅👍✅
That’s very good 😁
I loved his performance which shows that even in the 30s people already were experimenting with more experimental dances and moves
This is older than the 1930s ... I am guessing early - mid 1910s..the lettered intro card would not be necessary in the 1930s .. because the 1930s had sound recording by that time 🎬🎙️🎥 🙂... 1927 was the first sound film... I think it was an Al Jolson film short... him singing..
Hello beautiful
Whenever I view videos like this. It's as if I'm viewing bits and pieces of the movement of human physiology evolving and improving. The way that all these dance moves have transitioned into techniques over the decades of dance and rhythm. The vigor of youth is lasting longer and longer as we minutely inch up on the evolutionary ladder.
I guess no one is feeling this LOL.
#ImDrunk🥴 woo!
Wow! I wonder if Michael ever saw this and got some of his moves from this! He could have cause he loved these old comedians! This was perfect to this song!
Everything has been done already! You can tell Michael take some notes watching this guy dance!
MJ perfected it . Thanks to the past legends
Just like the "moon walk" is old. It's been done a long time ago, during the jazz era. There was even a female dancer that was the queen of the "moon walk".
"I want to take you on a Moonwalk, baby!! Want to take you on a magic carpet ride..."
*Michael was inspired by the best and became better than them. MJ* 👑
How can you be better than the best when there is no best and just better.
I remember seeing him Sunday morning on tv. I liked him too.
Wow. I had no idea. Incredible. I’d say MJ learned some moves from him.
MJ looks like hes moving in sllow motion compared to this guy...Its as if this dude is making fun of his moves if u play them both side by side lol
😄😄Oh shit this is spooky asf and playin Mike's music too!...Thought: Someone should do a side by side with Mike and this Dude to this Music that would be cool ❤
HA! You’re Joking, Right? RIGHT!
🤣👍
Michael improvised the moves and gave their moves his flavour.

Looks like he did every breakdance and popping move in 1 minute of action.
Great dancing, but definitely not every breakdance & popping move, he didnt even once go on his back, which is a lot of the moves from Breakin
His moves came first and most likely he was inspired by someone earlier than him, NOTHING IS NEW.
Thanks for this!! There were so many great Black, White, Indigenous, Romani, Asian & so many other brilliant dancers at that time ( & through history) learning from each other on show circuits, around camp fires, front porches, on travels & at celebrations. Very few were filmed, but you can still find some on RUclips. The great Harold Lloyd also learned from them and added his artistry. Amazing how we continue to learn!
he looks like a marionette puppet. I love this.
Janet said she and Michael when they were young would watch these classic performers like Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers which they had a love for. She even featured one in the video All Right With Me.
That was classic dancer Cyd Charisse known for her slender sexy build and luxurious long legs.
@@andrewforte3852 And Cab Callaway was in the music video too.
@@gerardmcmillan8591 Cab Callaway, Cyd Charisse, and Heavy D made cameos in the classic music video, the story centered mainly around Callaway, whom Janet and her dance companions are going to meet, after discovering he was performing in town, at the end of the video the real Callaway gives her back her watch that she lost at the premiere.
Too Smooth.
