OK, here goes.
Someone feel free to correct me if I'm off.
(In some cases where there are multiple artists who sing the song, I'll guess which one it is and who's moves he's trying to imitate)
Personal commentary from me in smaller text.
The
Evolution of Dance:
- Elvis Presley - Hound Dog
- Chubby Checker - The Twist (Sometimes confused with Chuck Berry, Chubby Checker really did this song)
- Bee Gees - Stayin' Alive (or) Night Fever (They both have the same sound at times, and I can't tell.. it's probably Stayin' Alive though going by his moves)
- The Village People - YMCA
- Carl Douglas - Kung Fu Fighting
- Brady Bunch - Keep On
- John Travolta & Others from the movie Grease - Greased Lightning
- AC-DC - You Shook Me All Night Long
- Michael Jackson - Billie Jean
- Michael Jackson - Thriller
- Willy Wonka (Movie) - Oompa Loompa (original movie, not Johnny Depp remake)
- STYX - Mr. Roboto (Duh
) - (Don't know this one - probably late 80's early 90's break-dancing song)
- The Bangles - Walk Like An Egyptian (From the 80's, and played during the Super Bowl back then when the team The Bengals were in it.)
- The Chicken Dance - Artist unknown as so many people covered it.
- Tommy James & The Shondells (or) Billy Idol - Mony Mony
- Vanilla Ice - Ice Ice Baby (he definitely stole that riff from Queen's Under Pressure no matter what he says. Ding ding ding dah dah ding ding.
) - MC Hammer - U Can't Touch This (anyone remember the MC Hammer cartoon with his talking shoes? Yeah.. ok.. so I'm old. LOL)
- B-52's - Love Shack
- Sugar Hill Gang - Apache (not to be confused with Sir-Mix-A-Lot's remake of this song named Jump On It)
- House Of Pain - Jump Around
- Sir Mix-A-Lot - Baby Got Back (I Like Big Butts and I cannot lie) LOL
- Chumbawumba - Tubthumper (yes this is the actual name, I have the CD lol) (I get knocked down, but I get up again, no you're never gonna keep me down)
- Haddaway - What Is Love? (made famous by Will Ferrell and Chris Kattan on SNL, and then their characters spun off a movie called A Night At The Roxbury)
- Rednex - Cotton Eyed Joe (another duh if you are in FIRST - you are required to know this song and dance to it..)
- Los Del Rio - Macarena (I'm with him on that one, it had it's time and now it can retire, and never be played again.)
- N'Sync - Bye Bye Bye
- Eminem - Lose Yourself
- Outkast - Hey Ya (shake it like a Polaroid picture!)
- Jay-Z - Dirt Off Your Shoulder (why is that in there with all the other "classics"? LOL)
- Vanilla Ice - Ice Ice Baby (revisited - Word to your mother!)
- N'Sync - Bye Bye Bye (revisited - and that's the end.)
All in all a pretty good mix and a hysterical video!
If anyone knows that break-dancing song, feel free to post what it is.
