OK, I'm not a huge fan of country music.

I'm not.

However, I really dig Mary Chapin Carpenter. I think she's an underrated song writer, and

probably more in line with folk song writing greatness than the pointless drivel that gets

put out now that they're calling country music.

At any rate, I saw her perform live once on T.V. and her dancing was just.....

Let's just say that one time Billy Ray Cyrus decided to show us what the Aechy Breaky heart

looked like as a dance step??? Well, Mary's dancing was sort of in line with that.

Marvin!

I know he makes it work to his advantage but he surely wasn't gonna be a threat to James Brown in the dancing department. But I loved his little spins during "Got To Give It Up" though. But yeah lol

BUT Stevie dancing compared to Marvin makes Marvin look like Gene Kelly. Seriously Stevie made me laugh my ass off when he was trying to dance during his BET performance of "What the Fuss". I almost thought he jumped the shark when he did that. He danced like that uncle that always appears in those type of big family reunions embarrassing his side of the family.

Sorry Stevie, but I had to call you out playa.

Mind's blank on anyone else lol

No... But it was HELLA FUNNY! I remember what they were saying about it.

None of the DeBarges can't dance worth a fucking lick either.

And while he's not really a "big favorite" but Smokey Robinson... He moves like he got a hump in his back.

I know he's not a singer, but I think this dance fail is the best ever.

Rihanna comes close, but not quite.

If you can find it, check out Roland Orzabal in the video for Tears For Fears' Change.

He looks like he's asking the director, "shall I move like this?"

As much as I love New Edition, Johnny Gill couldn't dance worth a shit!

He always seemed out of step with the rest of NE.

Imma die a painful laugh related death.

I've noticed that many acts who make dance music can't dance, such as Depeche Mode, Lisa Lisa, Duran Duran, Pet Shop Boys, Kraftwerk, Art Of Noise, Samantha Fox, Bee Gees, Donna Summer, Whitney "I Wanna Dance With Somebody" Houston, etc.

And while this is probably not so surprising but the Supremes and the Vandellas couldn't dance worth licks either. I saw footage of both groups and while the Vandellas seemed more like they were having fun with their performances even with the lack of sweet moves, the Supremes danced like ducks running from the guns on Nintendo's Duck Hunter. Even Florence Ballard and Mary Wilson danced with two left feet. Diana Ross seemed to be a better dancer after leaving the group. The Marvelettes on the other hand made both groups look stupid with their dancing. I was surprised by that honestly.

That's not the whole video, it cuts off before the dancing part.

• The only one that "danced" was Dave Gahan and I have to agree but he's a fine mover though. There's a GIF of him moving that hot body of his somewhere.
• Lisa Lisa just posed.
• Duran Duran definitely weren't trying to be dancers.
• Neither were the Pet Shop Boys, the one who wasn't deejaying was just sashaying lol
• Kraftwerk were NEVER gonna move onstage lol
• Same with Art of Noise
• Samantha Fox was like Lisa Lisa, she just posed lol
• The Bee Gees would definitely not try to dance. With the talents they had in other fields they didn't need to. Though I did like it when Robin moved around. That hair...
• Donna Summer had two left feet lol
• Whitney surely can't dance at all

HELL even with the part that he's looking like he's dancing, it looks odd. For some reason the full video ain't been posted.

Stephen Tyler of Aerosmith always made me want to scrub my eyeballs with borax after watching him dance.

Steven Tyler dances like he's drunk 24/7.

I'm not sure why but Jermaine Stewart's dancing in "Say it Again" always cracked me up.

I can't bear to click play.

Van Damme was in one of those Breakin'/Beat Street movies in the early 80's.

He actually reminds me of what Lara Flynn Boyle might look like in 50 years.

Mo White. EWF's music always blazed so you could always overlook

Mo's awkward dance moves.

Which reminds me that while Lucinda Dickey was apparently a trained dancer, that... seizing she did in the Breakin' films was ghastly.
