Thanks Internet.
How did I know the internet would deliver an animated gif of 4 of the greatest seconds in last night’s episode of Mad Men? Peggy and her boyfriend Abe dancing are almost as good as Pete and his wife doing the Charleston a few seasons back…
- AND -
Where are -our- generation’s organized dance moves? Who is -our- Chubby Checker and subsequent dance making brethren? If we don’t have one, I’m commandeering this one from Peggy’s boyfriend. Now I just need a girl who can pull off this subtle version of the twist while making just a hint of “duckface.”
If that doesn’t work… I guess I’ll just be taking my dance cues from Ron Swanson.
This is a fun little video highlighting the change of fashion over the past 100 years, accompanied by changing music and dance style. While I enjoy the dancing, I think the music is a bit more impressive since it keeps the same melody but changes instruments with each genre. The only downside to this video is that it isn’t a little longer. Ha, I’d have liked to see more of the regrettable 90’s… why was everything baggy?!
