Daniel
is now getting into watching "The Fresh Prince of Bel Air," which led
to us watching "The Carlton Dance" on YouTube. It's soooo bad, I lumped
it in with other unforgettable (for better or worse) dance moves of the
1980s.
But actually, that show was from the 1990s, as was Seinfeld with The Elaine, and the dance craze The Macarena--all of which I thought were in the '80s. Did no one in the '90s learn anything about taste from the '80s?
What are your most unforgettable dance moves from the '80s? My list of 7 includes 2 must-haves because of their brilliance and others ranging all along the "Great" to "Grating" scale: The Moonwalk, Thriller, Bobby Brown's Genie Pants Dance, Walk Like an Egyptian, The Cabbage Patch, The Electric Slide, and The Running Man.

- Diane Grey Kalafut: John, you are a GREAT dad. Daniel may not appreciate it now but how COOL is a dad that will show the dance moves of generations gone by to his young son.... so blessed!
- Christine Mancuso DiVuolo: I am surprised you don't have the Ickey Shuffle on your list. The "Churning butter" was always a fave of mine. And wasn't it MC Hammer doing hammer time in the big gold genie pants (you know you had a pair)
- Linda Buck Roach: When was Madonna's Vogue? That was a classic. I thought I was so sexy when I "vogued!!" HA HA. I think it was from the 90's.
- John Roach: Mixing up "My Prerogative" and "Can't Touch This"??? How could I? Where do I turn in my neon-colored '80s Solid Gold dancer card?
- John Roach: I forgot "The Curly Shuffle." Although that might have just been popular among we weird O'Hara folks . . .
