So I don't want this topic to be cruel or making fun of anyone, but I wanted everyone to share any videos they come across online of people that dance to swing music, but what the're doing is something makes you wonder where they heck they learned to...
Yikes, I didn't even notice that before. I also love how halfway through, their bounces are off. How is it that we can improvise this on the spot and it rocks, and they choreograph it and it's still wrong?
Quoted from "aircooled66" What were my rules again?

Hey, this one actually isn't bad. Sure, they aren't the best dancers ever, but they are actually doing lindy hop and doing stuff that you'd see on the dance floor of a standard lindy dance.
Just cause they are at AM doesn't automatically mean they suck (just usually, haha)
THIS is a Fail full of WIN!

They know that they're shooting this and are ironically calling themselves awesome but it's really their "basic" that makes me chuckle, but I keep wondering the whole time if that creeky tree/sign won't just fall and kill them already. And the d00d literally says "durrrrr"
I like how the janitor just walks by in the background.
Ok, I'm not all up for being an ass about a swing club in nowheresville doing a little self-promotion. And that "janitor" is probably just a member of the club cleaning the floor, so there's no need for that snark.
ON THE OTHER HAND: Did anyone watch to the end?
"NO EXPERIENCE IS NEEDED
ANY OF ARE MEMBERS ARE WILLING AND ABLE TO TEACH"
OK, I swear this is the last link I'm gonna follow today: swing dance " your the one that i want"
I think they do manage a single charleston basic in there. YOU'RE failing. I know.
Again, at least get the english frakkin language kids. PLEEEZ.

Even more amusing is that clip was from the 2nd half of the talent show (after their "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" performance posted earlier). So they came back to demonstrate extra talent.... and got critiqued favorably by the panel of judges at the end!
So maybe there's hope for another round next year!
I get it and appreciate it but I also know that at differant times I thought I was cool enough to capture on film and now I find them to be comedy. I have some now that I think are cool but two years from now will bang my head and ask why god why did this make it to the internet.
I am greatfull that I have not appeared on here yet and sincerly thank the people that have managed to overlook my tresspasses. ;-)
Yikes. Well they must have some talent if they got this far without any lessons at all. Just think what a few lessons would do! I'm sure there are dance teachers in the Chicago area....
New commercial for New Idea magazine in Australia. It's quite awful. I first saw it sitting on the couch at Swing Camp Oz on the off day at the surf club.

I love how unexcited the guy is dancing this routine. And why does he keep touching her on the hip? Ewwww.

I'm guessing neither have a good enough connection that would enable him to lead her back.

The girl is doing all the leading. I think the guy is an un-willing victim.

I kept waiting for the first guy to do something other than run under her arm. Oh wait, there's an arm slide.

Ha! It's a rip off of the video of Bjork's cover of the Betty Hutton song.

I especially like the part where he just humps her. Charming.

Mike Tyson sort of dancing swing.
Do you know how awkward it is to have a political argument with a naked man?
Capt Morgan
hahahahaha!
I think that was supposed to be Jive, but it was more like:
Tyson: "I'm gonna keep kickin' and you dance around me"
Capt Morgan
Who doesn't love "Swing The Mood"?
Toon Town Dave
Not only is he wearing a cheap polyester suit but it's a cheap polyester suit that doesn't fit! I wonder what Maisie thinks.

At least some people in the crowd were clapping on 2 and 4.

"The Swing" thread has officially reached a new high (or low depending on your point of view).
Check out this video by Angel Taylor: "Like You Do"
I see lots of yanking arms, some girls "leading", the pretzel, and even the "put our arms behind our head and slide away from each other" move.
All beautifully shot, but still...
Shanabanana
I'm much more offended by the use of autotune on the singer than casual unpolished bopping around swing dancing.
