‘Dancing On The Ceiling’ – An Old School Mash Up
Because of the positive response my previous videos have had, here’s my latest ‘dancing video’. This will probably be the last one I make of these, so it’s a little longer (over 7 minutes), and I’ve tried to include as many people as possible (some by request). Some weren’t possible, simply because they didn’t suit the edit.
As always keep the comments below respectful & on topic, otherwise they will just be removed and you may be blocked.

I must say that this is just exciting and what a pleasure . If just a TV Station ( like PBS ) would catch on and do a special of one week with not some but all of dancing movies available and try to get the ratings …it would be surprising to see how many people viewed .
As a baby boomer , I was able to recall almost all of the movies especially the acts they were and will stay unique in our minds . The dancing acts were just original and will stay as so . I viewed the clips a few times and I wanted to move but my body would not follow …..

Wonderful video, brings back so many good memories. I graduated from high school, graduated from college, got married, and had my first child, in the 60s. In those days people lived in the real world, and we all tried to get along and to love one another. I truly miss that time. Thank you for your great work.

Here is where we must remember to direct our focus much more often!!! It seems to be, we are all caught in such serious considerations, we forget to remember and mostly are distracted from Love and Joy which is actually our natural state.

I’m smiling and smiling through tears of joy. Watched all 7 minutes several times.
I think I must have been a professional dancer in heaven before this earthly journey. . . .unfortunately my “thoughts” never came to fruition.
But I can still dream. Watching these famous dancers helped me balance all those thoughts and memories through the years.
Thank you. Thank you. Fabulous job!
