I Love this song...I started watching the video but my computer is too slow so I never got to the dance move. Last Night, I spent another lonely Christmas...Darlin' Darlin' U shoulda been there.~Prince. | |

At 2:22 there is a dude that reminds me of Karl Lake doing the robot on the Chappelle. I wonder if Dave got that idea from Soul Train?

That's a common dance move that just about anyone would do when grooving. |

That was a robot. The yellow sweater and bowtie look was all the rage for automatons in those days.  | |

I doubt that P copied Kurtis Blow but this looks like a dance we did in the mid 70s called the Watergate. I don't know what they called it in Cali. "After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill...the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill...you stay in wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes." | |

Kurtis wasnt a disco artist,but since recorded rap first appeared in 1979 , all the rappers were rapping over popular disco music ie Rappers Delight (from Chics Good Times) , Freedom (from Get Up And Dance by Freedom) etc etc etc. I know I got to be cooler than that cat you're sittin' with.... | |
