I actually found Rosie Perez on there by mistake. I was just cracking up about the classic clothes and also noticed some of those dances that they are doing today was stolen from that time period.

Also, in the second Soul train clip, you see dancers with pants like MC Hammer, in which "Shabadoo" who use to do poplock dancing and dance with the Lockers(<--I think that was their name)was wearing those balloon pants first before MCHammer.


Shabadoo on the left

Another thing, that famous shake dance Beyonce is famous for...well in that first Soul train clip I posted, there is a girl wearing pink, that favors "Cat" that is doing a little of that dance. In which "Cat" did do that shake first that Beyonce was famous for last year. Cat did that dance in "Sing of the Times" As a matter of fact didn't Cat dance for Soul train at one time? (Correct me if I'm wrong)

Thanx for the heads up, cat daddy

Loved it!

I always preferred the ST line with couples. When did they stop doing that?
