      Some people have criticized the original 1960s Star Trek for putting their female crewmembers in micro-dresses and go-go boots. But the actresses were originally supposed to wear shirts and trousers -- it was Grace Lee Whitney, who played the Yeoman Rand character, who asked the costume designer to give her something that showed her legs, of which she was justifiably quite proud.

    • @dangerousdavescott
      @dangerousdavescott 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The mini skirts were Whitney's idea, but it came as a response to a "suggestion" Gene Roddenberry got from the network when Star Trek got the green light to go to series to make the female uniforms sexier. He shared it with his people and Whitney suggested the skirts to show off her dancer's legs.

    Micro-mini's were pretty much the style of the time - especially in the entertainment industry. No one ever really defined the "legal" length of a micro-mini, some schools would send girls home to change according to their own rules, but micro was the style and length was really as short as any particular girl wanted to wear it....

    I remember hearing this song as a young girl. Nancy also had some other hits such as "Sugartown", "Bang Bang" & "Somethin' Stupid" a duet with her dad Frank Sinatra. Nancy recorded the title song from the James Bond movie "You Only Live Twice" in 1967. She also starred with Elvis Presley in "Speedway" in 1968. Nancy did a few collaborations with Lee Hazelwood including the songs "Summer Wine", "Jackson" & "Some Velvet Morning".

      One of the reasons she made the centerfold was because Hef just about worshipped her father. Security was always extremely tight at the Playboy Mansion, but there was a standing rule that only two people could show up unannounced and still be allowed on the premises anyway: Frank Sinatra and Queen Elizabeth II. As far as is known, neither of them ever took advantage of this indulgence.

    As mentioned before, miniskirts were big in the 60's, and we were as distracted as you, Phil! I was in my teens then, and miniskirts were much appreciated. And also as mentioned before, there were girls sent home from school for wearing skirts that were too short. Every once in awhile, when school started in the morning, you'd see a few girls kneeling on the wooden floor near the front door with some teachers observing. They had to kneel with torsos straight up, and the hems of the skirts had to touch the floor. If not, call Mom, and off you go! Guys at our school also had a dress code. Our hair could not touch the collar of our shirts, or the tops of the ears. Our shirts were required to have collars, they had to button up to, but not including, the collar (dress shirt), and we couldn't wear blue jeans. Had to be slacks, although they did allow a new kind of pants called jean slacks. Basically just a dressier version of blue jeans, but they weren't blue. And no necklaces for guys. And, they frowned on rings for anyone, depending on the kind. Wrist watches were OK, and ID bracelets, which were a thing back then, were OK, too. You had to look like you were dressed to be somewhere important...like school, where you actually learned something useful. Like how to read and write, to start with. Two things that seem to be getting lost. Thanks for a great reaction to a fun song! God bless you!

    This came out when I was in 6th grade. No pants and certainly no blue jeans were allowed in school and stockings or opaques were mandatory- no bare legs! Our skirts could be no shorter than three inches from touching the floor when kneeling or we were sent home to change. By the time I graduated we were into mini-skirts, hot pants, and bell bottoms. More than a decade of assassinations, war, and the draft were finally ending and we graduated into the early 70s with gentle singer-song writers (don't miss out on Dan Fogelberg- "The Same Auld Lang Syne" "Leader of the Band" and "Old Tennessee") herbal tea, Boz Scaggs, and Kansas.

    This video was produced for Scopitone video jukeboxes which were somewhat popular at mostly adult establishments in the 1960s. I think that's one of the reasons they were showing more legs, a little risque for American TV.

    When this came out I was in 7th grade. I found a picture of Nancy Sinatra in a pink bikini, cut it out of the magazine and put it in my school notebook for "inspiration."
    One day my deskmate (Kathy Hughes) needed to copy some notes I'd taken in class and I handed my notebook to her without thinking... and, of course, she looked thru my notebook and found the picture.
    I was teased the rest of the year.
    The song was pretty good for the times but her duet with Frank on "Something Stupid" was much better.

    She had two further hits with, 'Something Stupid', a duet with her father, Frank. Her other duet hit was, 'Jackson', where she dueted with Lee Hazelwood. I'm surprised by your shock at the apparel. This was the sixties. As far as the short skirts and legs are concerned, it was not unusual at the time. Many of the stars and ordinary people (especially in the UK) wore mini-skirts and some of them were very much mini minis. I remember my father getting annoyed by the length of my sister's skirts, but even then, as soon as she was out of the house and out of sight, she used to roll it up further. There was even a car named after the mini (and it really was a mini, not like the mini of today which is just trading on the name).

    *"Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)",* written and originally performed by Cher, was covered wonderfully and with a totally different, haunting atmosphere by Nancy Sinatra, and it was Nancy Sinatra's version that was chosen by Quentin Tarantino for prominent placement in his 2003 movie, "Kill Bill Volume 1".

    I'm quite certain that the performance of this song very much appealed to most men of course but also to women because of the message of empowerment for women. I absolutely love Nancy Sinatra, my Favorite Sinatra. She was Fire Hot & a huge part of Miss Nancy's hotness was her showing her very Feisty Spunk in this song. No one else can really truly do justice to this song like Sinatra did.

    At the time I was into Motown and the Beatles who were beginning their psychedelic stage, so when it came out I thought it was catchy but cheesy.

    Nancy appeared in several motion pictures and had several television specials that were big rating hits. And not only was her father, Frank Sinatra an iconic singer, but he was also an Oscar-winning actor for the film "From Here to Eternity". Appeared in dozens of films in the 40s, 50s, and 60s. And Gene Kelly taught him how to dance and he became very accomplished at it.

    In the 60's there wasn't anything like videos. Most of what you see from that time was either concert footage or a Piece of music from a TV show. The only other source would be "mini movies" made by the record companies to introduce a new act or new song to the DJ's of the time.

    If you didn't know the music and couldn't hear it, then the movie clip would look like a group of happy go-go dancers in go-go boots looking flirtatious or seductive occasionally. If you listen to the lyrics without seeing the movie, then you hear a girl being very dissatisfied with her boyfriend, warning him she's going to walk over him.
    So it's limping on two thoughts. But sounds catchy.

    😊❤ Hi Phil and Sam! 😅 This was fun! 😅 Sam, I agree this song was very simple and a small vocal range. I can't think of a song but I know she has more to offer. I think this was meant to be kind of 'campy' and empowering women. Like saying, don't be a doormat, be the boots!! And speaking of boots, Nancy was wearing go-go boots. My experience and memories were that go-go boots were at least knee high, and they expanded to include over the knee and thigh high. 😮😅 What cracks me up is that they could show this type of content in entertainment. However, I distinctly remember that in TV shows, comedy or drama if they showed a married couples bedroom it always had twin beds!! They were not allowed to show, or even suggest two people in bed together!! 🤯😂 It could be a bit confusing for me growing up in this era!! LOL 😂 Luv you guys!! 😊❤❤

    The 60s were unique. This was a catchy fun song. She did a great job with itas well as a duet with dad. But to be honest she would not be known at all if not for father Frank. Her brother Frank Jr has more of a singing career and toured for many years although he didn't have any hits to speak of. When Dad or mom is an icon no child could ever compare. Boots is still a good fun song.

    We didn't think anything about them showing their legs, because women were wearing miniskirts and the bikini had become very popular. On the original Star Trek TV show, the women cast members insisted that their uniforms have miniskirts, because women back then wanted Women's Liberation to be reflected in their comfort with showing as much leg as possible. Even as a kid, back then, I applauded their desire to break stereotypes and show the world that independent, powerful women can still be sexy and own it.

    This particular video was known as a "Soundie." It played in a video jukebox that are also known as peepshows. A guy would put a quarter in the slot and the film would start. They were found in bars and pinball arcades. This would never be allowed on TV. Sinatra did a tamer version on Ed Sullivan.

    Jane H commenting …. I would not consider this provocative for the Swinging Sixties. The 60s was a very colourful time, musically & culturally, & the mini-skirt was all the rage, often worn 8-10” above the knee. Colors were bright & psychedelic patterns everywhere. The 60s really were revolutionary & exciting. This song was very popular. & was played on the radio all the time & danced to.

I bought the 45rpm, but everytime I played it when mom was near, she would yell to turn that trash off. Funny thing about mom was she was one of the biggest Elvis fans ever and was perfectly fine with his hip movement. 🤣
