There's a 'ghost' in Michael Jackson's short film Ghosts that reminded me of Shabba Doo even with make up on. The way he pop locks out the wall I always wondered if it was him after all these years but never bothered to read the credits. Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off | |

I used to watch both these movies over and over.
But the best song that came from those two soundtracks was Din Daa Daa. | |

I stiiiiill can't believe the first soundtrack didn't include Tour de France or Ice T's rap over the Beatbox track. Total let down. I'm sick and tired of the Prince fans being sick and tired of the Prince fans that are sick and tired! | |

I have a friend who is big into b-boying (break dancing) and he said that both turbo and ozone got into drugs pretty bad. They both still dance and ozone has a studio in L.A. Turbo (who is credited for inventing the moonwalk a.k.a the glide) stillhas his moves. I always like the song at the end of the movie called street people [Edited 2/1/05 14:01pm] "Thinking like the Keys on Prince's piano, we'll be just fine" | |

'Beat Street' is one of my favorite films
I never really got into the 'Breakin' movies,I thought they were cheesy and silly.But I dig the theme song "There's No Stoppin Us".Reminds me of the summer of 1984. | |

I love the song and also some of the other songs from the soundtrack such as "Reckless" by Chris "The Glove" Taylor & David Storrs and my favorite is a "Shannon sounding" song called "99 1/2" by Carol Lynn Townes.
As for the movie, I haven't seen the first one but I did see the second one and thought it was simply "OK". I still want to see the first one. Andy is a four letter word. | |

That's because it was him! In 1987,Madonna asked Shabbo-Doo to choreograph her 'Who's That Girl' tour,and he also appears as a dancer on that tour.Unfortunately,the choreography on that tour is atrocious | |
