4 me the best rudeboy, gangster, pimp of the year, fred 'Ass-Stare', crazy legs, B-boy, DMSR, seriously funky dance move Prince has ever done is between:

1. 'The Kick steps' at the end of the 'When Doves Cry' video:
Such fucking timing and precision and balance. Think about it, Prince did his kick step after turning 360'degrees and still did his move better then BrownMark

2. 'The Hop skip n' jump' at the middle of the Alphabet St. video:
Now Im an o.k dancer but this is not as easy as it looks-trust me-b4 U can think U have 2 jump back and do it all over again-this is a demonstration that 'crazy legs' Prince is a master of co-ordination

3. The Detroit Crawl as in It's gonna be a beautiful night on the SOTT video:
This is like a Russian dancer who's taken an E and vodka cocktail and Prince pulls it off. When I was 14 I tried doing this move at a slumber party when I was smashed on rum and cola-I ended up spraining my wrist and being off scholl 4 2 weeks

Probably my favourite move of Prince if I had 2 pick one would be the kick step though-I don't think he could do that shit again if he tried

The end of the violet the organgrinder video is one of his sexiest !!

But he, I'm gay !

He also has a strange way of kickink his boots down to the ground, this is extra sexy if he's got his legs a bit bend through the knees !

Another funky funky V, V funky move is in the Diamonds & Pearls video when Prince climbs up on the couch-bounces down on2 the couch and then falls on2 the floor with a perfect Prince splits OOOHHH (FunnyWay holds his head) OOOhhh (funnyway raises his hands to the heavens)

@ the end of lil red corvette

sex-y

And I have to stress there has not been many better dance moves than when Prince jerks his body in Darling Nikki-like a vibrator having a fit...

Was that the first time he did the splits?

FunnyWayOfStoppinTheJuice said:

Ya see him do the splits in the dirty mind vid...that's the earliest i've seen him do 'em.

I'll have 2 go watch that again...

I really like the bit in Kiss where he's standing on a little platform and sort of jerks his body over...

His entire set on SOTT during HOUSEQUAKE!

FunnyWayOfStoppinTheJuice said:

This has always been one of my favourite Prince videos. For some reason i've never truly appreciated the 'kick steps'.

I've just gone back and viewed it. You're absolutely right... 4minutes 55 seconds into the song prince does
the baddest ass move!! It's over so quickly you have to view it over a few times to take it in.

He reminds me of myself out there on the dance floor! lol!

Thanks for bringing the move to my attention

nO PROBS :THUMBSUP:

I now know Prince's greatest dance move ever and it is one truly worthy of

...it has 2 be...













If I was Ur Girlfriend, SOTT video,87' when he does the yo-yo splits 3 times and then take Cat 4 a lie down on the heart-shaped mirror...one word 4 that 1...WOW!

The windmill jump in the air-into the splits-and back up again- at the start of Housequake on Lovesexy 88 video

Oh how right U R CC-That was some crazy legs shit

I always said that #1 was one of the coolest moves I've seen anyone do. Of course, this may have something to do with the fact that I love his outfit (that hat) in this video and how they all move to the beat. Electric!

Let's not forget some of his moves in the Hot Thing performance.

Got to agree with Housequake, Sign o the times tour.

And it's not really a dance move, but in one concert (think it was Gold tour) prince kinda sprinted across the stage and then seemed to just slide on one heel for a fair distance. I was seriously nervous for the fella and his ankle.

The dancing in Girls and Boys...the taking off of the jacket...the putting on of the jacket...the hitting of the floor and sliding over to Mary...
The Arfasenio Hall performances...when he performed The Max...

can't 4get the electric slide he does with the rest of the band in the rave dvd and the attempt at 'civilised' dancing with mary Sharon in under the cherrymoon

I love all hes dancing in the rave video.

i love it when he asks how many splits he should do, he says "how about 14" then only does 9 lol bless him

FunnyWayOfStoppinTheJuice said:

that's my favorite

OMG... what about the whole 10 minute jam on the Sheila E Romance 1600 vide for Love Bizarre.

Wooden leg dance and all jumping and kicking he did. I can watch that performance over and over.

I also like the way he drags himself around on the floor by his hands like a snake and them jumbs up from the splits on the SOTT tour and the LOVESEXY tour.

COOL!!!

Damn, I was gonna say that...

That Diamonds & Pearls couch-bounce-to-floor-split move is really smooth. Always dug that. Wonder how many takes it took for him to get THAT right. Very cool.

But the best move, to me, is that weird ballet-looking move, where he jumps straight up and scissors his legs twice before landing. I tried that as a teen, when I first saw him do it (the "Kiss" video?), but was sad to find I could scissor only once before landing.

Durn that little cricket!!!

the "Ozzy Osbourne" from the ONA live DVD.

andykeen said:

I like that too but without checking, remember it a little different. He asks the band to, "give me 14", and he then goes down and up on each of the 14 band hits for a total of 7 complete splits.

I may be wrong though, been working hard and late today!

He is doing great in the boot Toronto lovesexy tour video, better than the official lovesexy video. ALso HOt Thing in the SOTT movie... when he jumps back and does the superfast hand moves around his head...

4m ...the best prince performance was in japan when he sing the question of u...i love that

The Red Corvette video steps are classic - there is a video for a contemporary funk group of that era (early 80s) called Midnight Star. The video os for a old school classic called No Parking on the Danefloor and there is a Prince imitator doing the Red Corvette moves in it. Cool and funny!
