My mom loved this musical. She's no longer with us ,but I Remember her saying that she loved the Music Box Dancer. So I would listen to it every now and then and think of her as I listen. Coming up on March 12 will be 31 years since her passing. And I'll definitely will listen to it once again in her memory. I love you mom
I remember hearing this piece of music on a golf programme called " A round with Alliss. " I loved it so much that it inspired me to learn to play the piano. My parents bought me a piano and by the age of 17 I had passed all my Grades. Beautiful dancing . Maybe now age 55 I could learn ballet!! 🤣.
One of the best instrumentals in pop music history. I can listen to this song over and over again. It is a classic. Thank you to Mr. Frank Mills for composing this classic. A timeless classic full of beauty. I loved it in 1979 when I first heard it and I still do in 2018.
First time I heard it was in a greasy spoon café with the man I spent 33 years dancing with. We were never on a stage. It was nothing like this. It was better. We were in love. This was the last song ever played for him. But there are no sad memorys. That's why it was his last song. Remember the good. Always the good.
Wonderful tale from what is obviously personal experience. Heartfelt and sincere., to be sure. A big thanks for sharing somethings from so close to the heart. Condolences and best wishes. Funny how music connects such diverse folk as we. (Wonder if Lindsey will come along and correct my grammar....) Ciao, Shirley. Be well.
Almost 40 years later and they still get choked up with tears when they hear this. . So many memories And loved ones that are no longer with me and in my life.
Tocava muito em uma rádio da minha cidade aqui no Brasil em 1972, só que não falavam o nome ou se falavam eu não me lembro e pouco tempo eu encontrei por coincidência aqui na internet. Músicas internacionais eram febre por aqui.
this was one of the most beautiful music box tune I got when I was a kid. I found a music box in the trash when I was 12 years old. it was this thing fit touched my heart and caused a lot of problems with my family. but to this day I hold this dear. this was one of my favorite pieces ever that I first heard that made me getting to dancing. I will forever love this piece music. I don't care what my family says... This got me into dancing in college and to this day this is still one of my favorites. Love You Frank Mills thank you so much for your beautiful music
Oh .....how I love the sight of beautiful girls. Who are the beautiful girls and where do they hail from? I remember this tune from way back when ...I can't recall any more tunes from Frank Mills. Beautiful music.... beautiful dancers....a TH-cam treasure.
I remember when this came out in the later '70's. I was a little kid but still remember it playing on the Am radio in the Ford pickup truck we had back then. You know, the one with the metal dash and one bench seat the whole family (5 kids+mom and dad) crammed into the front of with no seat belts. Sometimes, when the cousins were out from the city, all the kids would ride in back with the privileged ones getting to sit on the spare tire and hold the dog's collar. When we got a little older, 10-11, we'd sometimes get to sit on the tailgate and watch the asphalt whiz by under our bare, dangling feet thinking how bad it would hurt if we touched a toe down, just for an instant. Tank tops and butch haircuts. No shoes all summer long. Ice cream cones were the best thing that ever happened. Poison ivy and getting up hay bales by hand with a tractor and a flat bed wagon. All these things come flooding back when I hear this song.
I was a sophomore in high school (Appleton, Wis.) when this song was very popular. In my electronics class someone was working on repairs to a radio when this song came on. One or two of the guys in the class did a parody of a ballerina slowly spinning around.
It's Matt I would like to dedicate this song Can my baby sister Ariel who I very much love and I adore I sure do miss you sis talk to you later your brother dependency outlaw
Does anybody else thinks this video should have more views? Not only the music is great, but the video itself shows such marvelous and beautiful ballerinas. What a great combination!
Such a timeless piece. Almost like frank is dancing with his fingers,delicate on the piano. Just like the ballerina. I’m no dancer but if I was, this piece I’d dance to
I'm no ballet fan. It leaves me cold. This time it's different. This time it's fantastic! Super girls perfect music and brilliant editing. This is three and a quarter minutes of pure joy and I'm not embarrassed to say so.
One of my wife's favorites. In the early years of our marriage, we did not have a TV. A good stereo and a lot of vinyl were all we needed. Thank you, Mr. Mills, for hours of listening enjoyment.
Only few make it as far as on this film. For the rest of us it helps to put out the cigarette , pour out the Vodka , throw the burger with double cheese in the garbage can and closely watch what our body may do for us. No diabetes-2 , no bypasses in the heart , no shortness of breath.
I woke up thinking of my 7-yr old granddaughter when this song came to mind. I usually have trouble remembering names of songs, but THIS one came to me in an instance!!
Finally found this song in 2019. Always loved this happy melody. I remember 1st time I heard it on the radio when I was young (am 52.now) we had a radio in our barn We played while milking cows. Could never find in any music store this original version until now. Thanks for sharing and happy to be listening and smiling to this tune again. God bless Frank mills.
In 1983 I enjoyed an extended holiday in the USA and Canada. As part of it I flew from San Francisco to Vancouver to board the train through The Rockies. As we disembarked from the plane the airline was playing this piece of music. Didn't know its title then but tracked it down years later So this piece brings back very many happy memories.
Music Box Dance would have to be one of my favourite music of all times. I asked my granddaughter, when she was 9 years old to come up with a choreography piece for a calisthenic solo to this music. I was in tears. Firstly at way her impromptu movements were weaving to this enchanting and magical sound . And secondly at the stirring sound of this magical piece of music. Music Box Dance will never completely fade away.
My brother loved this music. So we played it to him just before he died. Just for a second it bought him back. Now every time I hear this music I know he's around😊

19/12)2022 Hoje por acaso encontro essa bela melodia que fez parte da minha adolescência e Juventude ❤️A fantástica Bailarina 👋👋 Obrigada por esse presente 😍😍
Essa música é uma recordação de infância. Passava na TV, quando dava os capítulos do dia seguinte da novela Chispita, na década de 80 (quando foi exibida no Brasil). Há quantos anos não escutava!! Muito obrigado pela postagem!!!
Reminds of a girl that I dated in High School, she was taking ballet. And I would take her to classes and her shows, I loved watching her dance! That was 35 years ago, but I remember it like it was yesterday.
How EXQUISITE! Soooo many people choosing, these days, to spend their precious hours on this Earth fighting one another. Fortunately, Frank Mills and these STELLAR dancers choose to spend their time on BEAUTY AND JOY. Thank you very much!
@Gutless Spigot - Good day to you. Please. I'm a peace/civil rights/anti-poverty activist from the 1960's. I am FULLY aware of the level of suffering which exists & the need for ALL people to stand up for their rights & dignity (I volunteer for a battered women's shelter & child abuse prevention agency.) Otherwise, I've worked in private businesses and was a legislative aide to several lawmakers including a US Senator. Sorry, but with my own eyes & ears, I witnessed SOOOO MANY humans being dictatorial and, ENDLESSLY, combative, usually because they seek power. Ironically, once the get it, they're still unhappy and keep initiating ugly conflicts. I feel sorry for all of them. PEACE TO YOU.
@Gutless Spigot - Good evening. This time, my Email listed your reply. I had NOT seen your original post until this afternoon, or I would have responded sooner. No, I was not "busy dancing." I work in a child care center & volunteer for 2 nonprofits. FYI - I've been working, outside the home, since I was 11 years old (my parents needed the money). My husband & I had our now grown children work outside the home in their early teens to teach them a sense of responsibility. I will not be making remarks demeaning your character as that serves no positive purpose. Otherwise, the fact is we all have a choice. We can be aware of all the injustices/pain, do whatever we can to relieve them, and then concentrate on the good & pleasant part of life OR we can let the sorrow swallow our souls. PEACE TO YOU.
@Gutless Spigot - Good morning. Sorry to hear it. Just FYI - I've endured major abuse from others including the worst crime that a female can experience. I, too, almost, drowned in the pain, but chose to look for the beauty in others. I hope you are able to find some contentment again and, sorry, but I'm going to ENJOY this video. ***Otherwise, I'm the volunteer moderator of a support group for adult survivors of child abuse.

A beautiful melody my Mother gave a music box when I was three or four and it had this tune and a nice Little dancer who danced as the tune played. To turn it on one simply opened it. I remember my Mother's smile as she looked at me whilst I watched the Little dancer move and enjoyed the music. Nice to hear over sixty years later!
This is one of the most beautiful pieces of music I have ever heard. The video is a stroke of genius and goes very well with the music. It is a shame we don't have more music likes this from Frank Mills. fortunately we have others like Richard Clayderman, Floyd Cramer, Billy Vaughn, Ray Coniff and many othes. This is music. It is not like some of the stuff we hear most often on the radio.
Linda Smith - Bless you sweetheart.. I also lost my mom last summer. She was a beautiful gift to this world (as we all in some way are). I was given a wonderful gift of knowing that our loved ones are living in awesomeness and are at their prime age. God gave me a beautiful vision of my mother and she was so very young (like I remember her as a little girl). We can never be so selfish as to want them back into a physical body that doesn’t work anymore. We will soon be with them to enjoy the wonders of eternity with our Heavenly Father. Be well and be blessed.
Incredible. Absolutely incredible. The last time I saw someone running on their tip toes was a cartoon of Fred Flintstone at a bowling alley! But these girls( Ahem: 'young ladies') are no cartoons. They are amazing athletes who have spent years in training to hone their skills and their bodies. You go, girls! The world stands in awe.
Only few make it as far as on this film. For the rest of us it helps to put out the cigarette , pour out the Vodka , throw the burger with double cheese in the garbage can and closely watch what our body may do for us. No diabetes-2 , no bypasses in the heart , no shortness of breath.
I watch this all the time. Love the music and yes the amazing talent and grace of this young lady. It just makes me happy so when I feel blue I watch and just want to thank God for life and everything is good again. Thank you so much❤
normally I don't care for piano music or ballerinas but this song and video of the beautiful dancers are fantastic to watch !!!!! I'm going to watch it over and over again.Thank you Frank & all the lovely performers
I watch this video everyday for inspiration. Beautiful music, beautiful video! Anyone else notice how much they enjoy dancing? No ego, no competition, just pure enjoyment of perfecting the art!
Part of aging. Sometimes situation in life effect . Like anxiety..cheer up! Pray to be strong! Mostly mothers do , I started emoting nearly 50s from 48 I think
Beautiful and talented women, dancing to the perfect music. The spinning was flawless, like they were being held perfectly centered by something. Thanks for the video.
I've always loved this song since I was young and even remember it playing on the radio along with the other popular songs in the 70's (wow, hard to believe looking back). I must say that this ballet dancing to the music is absolutely wonderful!! Beauty comes in many forms, and this is certainly one of them. A beautiful song with wonderfully talented ballet dancers!! Well done!!
They use something called pointe shoes, it's very interesting. From the Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre website. "What are the point of pointe shoes? Pointe shoes look dainty, but they really aren’t. The tip of the shoe is a rigid box made of densely packed layers of fabric, cardboard and/or paper hardened by glue. The dancer depends on it to be extremely sturdy: The entire weight of her body is balanced on a small platform in that box! The rest of the shoe is made of leather, cotton and satin. Each shoe is custom made, and hand crafted to fit each dancer’s unique specifications. No two pairs of pointe shoes are identical!"
I loved hearing this on a station that played big band, easy listening, jazz, standards, and swing. Such an array of variety really goes back to the 20s but rose steadily through the 30s and was truly in full swing during the war years. It finally faded out with the 70s. Still, the memories for many music lovers will endure.
I would like to add my words of appreciation , it has all been said below , she is more than perfect and the music is fantastic !!!! yes this video should have at least three times what is recorded, pure lovely
Absolutely beautiful. I am a bodybuilder, and ex-college football player. I can tell you that these women are 90% muscle, and some of the best athletes you will ever see. And to top it off, they have to smile and look "feminine" as they do moves that would dislocate most of our joints. Lynn Swann of the Pittsburgh Steelers, and Arnold Schwarzenegger have one thing in common. They took lessons from ballet dancers to improve their ability to stretch and move. Just so much fun to watch these dancers move like they do. Incredible.
Bill Brown In professional mindset and focus both disciplines are kindred spirit~ and as for entertainment YOU graced your audience with a victory smile~
+jeanette skirvin Also a lot of genetics is involved. I'm not a world class bodybuilder, but I'm pretty good at the regional level. Ballet is no different. You have to have a good genetic gift to prosper at the professional level. But even with great genes, the work is intense. I know how hard these people work. A lot of similarities between ballet and sports.
Every frame of this video is beautiful! But when four dancers dance on the street/subway, it simply fills my heart with such joy that I feel I have been given wings to fly!
This song sounds and feels just as great in May 2019 as it did 40 years ago in spring 1979 when it was in the current rotation on AM and FM Top 40 radios stations.
My mom loved this musical. She's no longer with us ,but I Remember her saying that she loved the Music Box Dancer. So I would listen to it every now and then and think of her as I listen. Coming up on March 12 will be 31 years since her passing. And I'll definitely will listen to it once again in her memory. I love you mom
I'm sorry to hear about your mum. I'm glad to hear that you have a way to keep her in your heart and thoughts. May she rest in peace
When you listen to this music again I'm sure your mum will too.
For some reason this little song always brought tears to my eyes. Almost 40 years later it still does!
Me too Leah I can't work out why
Leah Andrew me aswell theres something so beautiful about it but it also feels like its past or lost like a loved one.
Also makes me cry. No matter how many times I listen to it
sometimes it is good for music to move you so much xx
It's an instrumental , not a song.
I remember hearing this piece of music on a golf programme called " A round with Alliss. " I loved it so much that it inspired me to learn to play the piano. My parents bought me a piano and by the age of 17 I had passed all my Grades. Beautiful dancing . Maybe now age 55 I could learn ballet!! 🤣.
Used to hear this song a lot on Radio 2,it was a favourite of Sarah Kennedys
Music has No Age any more than Friendship, One of the Joys of Life

There’s a 31 minute version on TH-cam.
I played it twice after I heard this on the radio today 🎶 🎵 🎶
oh~ me too. in 1979 I first heard this music when I was a child
And I still love to listen and watch this now in 2024❤
First time I heard it was in a greasy spoon café with the man I spent 33 years dancing with. We were never on a stage. It was nothing like this. It was better. We were in love. This was the last song ever played for him. But there are no sad memorys. That's why it was his last song. Remember the good. Always the good.
The word is memories NOT memorys.
@@ndhan72 Who cares, she's expressing her feelings not spelling techniques.
Thank you for sharing your memory of him. It gave me a pang in my heart.
Good for you, I bet they were 33 amazing years.👍

Almost 40 years later and they still get choked up with tears when they hear this. . So many memories And loved ones that are no longer with me and in my life.
I just adore it.
I remember the first time I heard this... during a power outage in the late 1970's, I had my portable radio on, and out of the darkness came magic.
Was it the ice storm of 78? I was 13 years old then and was living in Illinois. We had no power for almost a week.
+Jeff Swanson; You mean she kissed you?
BEAUTIFUL Memory !! :D
Well said.
That is a great story!!
Love this song, but the beauty and skill of the dancers is pure magic!!!!
Passei 40 anos procurando o nome dessa música e enfim encontrei ; lembrança dos meus 15 anos
De 1979

Ah 1979 what a great year for music that was. Great video. x

Absolutely!
Besides this tune Breakfast In America came out!
I think, "This music is the best dance tune or melody." In high school days, I would hear and appreciate this dance music. Thanks a lot.
this was one of the most beautiful music box tune I got when I was a kid. I found a music box in the trash when I was 12 years old. it was this thing fit touched my heart and caused a lot of problems with my family. but to this day I hold this dear. this was one of my favorite pieces ever that I first heard that made me getting to dancing.

I remember when this came out in the later '70's. I was a little kid but still remember it playing on the Am radio in the Ford pickup truck we had back then.

Tank tops and butch haircuts. No shoes all summer long. Ice cream cones were the best thing that ever happened. Poison ivy and getting up hay bales by hand with a tractor and a flat bed wagon. All these things come flooding back when I hear this song.
Sounds like you had some really nice memories with this song (well, except for the poison ivy) lol Yeah, I do, too.
Mills is clasic dance , no modern......
I was a sophomore in high school (Appleton, Wis.) when this song was very popular. In my electronics class someone was working on repairs to a radio when this song came on. One or two of the guys in the class did a parody of a ballerina slowly spinning around.

Such a timeless piece. Almost like frank is dancing with his fingers,delicate on the piano. Just like the ballerina. I’m no dancer but if I was, this piece I’d dance to
been watching this over and over, always brings joy.... never grows old!
Ja ouvi esta maravilhosa musica há mais de 20 vezes e quanto mais ouço me da vontade de ficar ouvindo.
Got to perform this as a duet on piano at one of my high school concerts.
Beautiful "moment' I will never forget.
2 years later . . . 20 years later. This will still be GLORIOUSLY BEAUTIFUL!
I'm no ballet fan. It leaves me cold. This time it's different. This time it's fantastic! Super girls perfect music and brilliant editing. This is three and a quarter minutes of pure joy and I'm not embarrassed to say so.
To be fair, the dancers look cheesy and irritating in sundry ways - but, good tune.

Ugh I don't know
This music was used as a children education music which was released in 2013.
A beautiful melody my Mother gave a music box when I was three or four and it had this tune and a nice Little dancer who danced as the tune played. To turn it on one simply opened it. I remember my Mother's smile as she looked at me whilst I watched the Little dancer move and enjoyed the music. Nice to hear over sixty years later!
This is one of the most beautiful pieces of music I have ever heard. The video is a stroke of genius and goes very well with the music. It is a shame we don't have more music likes this from Frank Mills. fortunately we have others like Richard Clayderman, Floyd Cramer, Billy Vaughn, Ray Coniff and many othes. This is music. It is not like some of the stuff we hear most often on the radio.
Thanks
such fabulous grace and elegance from the dancers... they do justice to this fantastic tune
Transports me back to a wonderful time in my life. When all of life was good and I still had my little man, Matthew. Going to Uni and having a ball!
Getting ready
Beautiful music and wonderful video, the music led me back to my middle schoolday,1978 in Seoul. I miss the days..
I dedicate this to my Mama who passed away 7 years ago today, Sept. 17, 2019. R.I.P. Mama!
Linda,My mama passed away six years ago next January I'm very sorry for the passing of your mama seven years ago
My condolences, dear Linda. I pray that memories of her warm your heart. Blessings from Richmond VA
And to you, Ken R ☺☺
I lost my mom, in June 2006...we played this song for her
Linda Smith - Bless you sweetheart.. I also lost my mom last summer. She was a beautiful gift to this world (as we all in some way are). I was given a wonderful gift of knowing that our loved ones are living in awesomeness and are at their prime age. God gave me a beautiful vision of my mother and she was so very young (like I remember her as a little girl). We can never be so selfish as to want them back into a physical body that doesn’t work anymore. We will soon be with them to enjoy the wonders of eternity with our Heavenly Father. Be well and be blessed.
WORDS CANNOT EXPRESS WHAT YOU SEE IN THIS FILM. ABSOLUTELY AWESOME.
Incredible. Absolutely incredible. The last time I saw someone running on their tip toes was a cartoon of Fred Flintstone at a bowling alley! But these girls( Ahem: 'young ladies') are no cartoons. They are amazing athletes who have spent years in training to hone their skills and their bodies. You go, girls! The world stands in awe.
Only few make it as far as on this film. For the rest of us it helps to put out the cigarette , pour out the Vodka , throw the burger with double cheese in the garbage can and closely watch what our body may do for us. No diabetes-2 , no bypasses in the heart , no shortness of breath.
Music & dance !! very beautiful
I can listen to this over and over again over any other music that I have in my music library. Brings back memories of the early 80s for me.
영혼을 맑게 해주는 아름다운 음악

I love this! So much talent, and love watching these women do their Ballet.
I have always liked the " MUSIC BOX DANCER" music but now i have an appreciation for the arts.
I watch this video everyday for inspiration. Beautiful music, beautiful video!
Anyone else notice how much they enjoy dancing?
No ego, no competition, just pure enjoyment of perfecting the art!
Beauty and poise, how can you NOT love this.
오랜만에 Frank Mills의명곡 "Music Box Dancer" 잘 듣고, 멋진 영상도 잘 보고 가네요. 그럼, 이 곡을 듣는 모든분들 행복한 시간 되세요.

I am a regular 44 year old adult, married, father of 3 kids, and I am crying as I am hearing this music right now. What is happening?
Part of aging. Sometimes situation in life effect . Like anxiety..cheer up! Pray to be strong! Mostly mothers do , I started emoting nearly 50s from 48 I think
Beautiful and talented women, dancing to the perfect music. The spinning was flawless, like they were being held perfectly centered by something. Thanks for the video.
I've always loved this song since I was young and even remember it playing on the radio along with the other popular songs in the 70's (wow, hard to believe looking back).
I must say that this ballet dancing to the music is absolutely wonderful!! Beauty comes in many forms, and this is certainly one of them. A beautiful song with wonderfully talented ballet dancers!!
Well done!!
I give this a ten thumbs up good piano music
Thanks
@@irataylor3131 I love you too
this is a feel good music when you down listen to this happy song....
It's an instrumental NOT a song.
Lindsay Evans it’s the principle of the thing which matters. It’s happy music. There. FIFY. Stop being so critical of other’s remarks. You happy now?
This song has always calmed & soothed me......no other song can ever do that with me. It's one of the most beautiful sounds in this world.
My mother had a music box that played this.I was young. She past away whin i was young so this peace holds alot for meaning to me.
AMAZING!!!! How can anyone stand on their very tippy toes like that. She's amazing! Merry Christmas Everyone.
Serephima Wings Takes a very special person too be sure.
They use something called pointe shoes, it's very interesting.
From the Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre website.
"What are the point of pointe shoes?
Pointe shoes look dainty, but they really aren’t. The tip of the shoe is a rigid box made of densely packed layers of fabric, cardboard and/or paper hardened by glue. The dancer depends on it to be extremely sturdy: The entire weight of her body is balanced on a small platform in that box! The rest of the shoe is made of leather, cotton and satin. Each shoe is custom made, and hand crafted to fit each dancer’s unique specifications. No two pairs of pointe shoes are identical!"
The world is still an amazing place!
I loved hearing this on a station that played big band, easy listening, jazz, standards, and swing. Such an array of variety really goes back to the 20s but rose steadily through the 30s and was truly in full swing during the war years. It finally faded out with the 70s. Still, the memories for many music lovers will endure.
Beautiful music always reminds me of my mum a beautiful lady taken to soon.
Perfect ,Beautiful Dancer ,for this song Breathtaking
I watch this everyday several time it's so beautiful, Awesome.
I would like to add my words of appreciation , it has all been said below , she is more than perfect and the
music is fantastic !!!! yes this video should have at least three times what is recorded, pure lovely
I never tire of this video!!! Such amazing beauty and grace!!
The Hammer.. oh please.
Yes it is just gorgeous..
Oh yes ..poetry uses words to speak to the soul,the body does that in dance,and the music is the delicate backdrop to a,,this magic!
Absolutely beautiful. I am a bodybuilder, and ex-college football player. I can tell you that these women are 90% muscle, and some of the best athletes you will ever see. And to top it off, they have to smile and look "feminine" as they do moves that would dislocate most of our joints. Lynn Swann of the Pittsburgh Steelers, and Arnold Schwarzenegger have one thing in common. They took lessons from ballet dancers to improve their ability to stretch and move. Just so much fun to watch these dancers move like they do. Incredible.
Bill Brown In professional mindset and focus both disciplines are kindred spirit~ and as for entertainment YOU graced your audience with a victory smile~
Bill Brown That girl in the black outfit was SO pretty and her dance was very (I found) pleaseantly erotic.
Bill Brown Well said sir.
+jeanette skirvin Great comment. I just wish I could move like these ballet dancers, and have their flexibility.
+jeanette skirvin Also a lot of genetics is involved. I'm not a world class bodybuilder, but I'm pretty good at the regional level. Ballet is no different. You have to have a good genetic gift to prosper at the professional level. But even with great genes, the work is intense. I know how hard these people work. A lot of similarities between ballet and sports.
The symmetry is amazing. My eyes have been opened to what ballet is.
This music and video are the most uplifting I have ever seen/heard. Magnificent!
i loved this song since i was a little girl and still do til this day and this music video is perfect with talented women ♥
..a classic and gorgeous 1979 "one hit wonder." :-]
Las melodías de Frank Mills, no tienen comparación, las mismas, todas todas.....llenan el alma de nosotros los amantes del amor y la naturaleza.
You can handle it
5k
Every frame of this video is beautiful! But when four dancers dance on the street/subway, it simply fills my heart with such joy that I feel I have been given wings to fly!
Simply beautiful...they are the music and they make it look so easy. Many thanks to the wonderful dancers for sharing their incredible talents.
This song sounds and feels just as great in May 2019 as it did 40 years ago in spring 1979 when it was in the current rotation on AM and FM Top 40 radios stations.
the balletrina/s are so beautiful the dancing amazing
Beautiful music, and fantastic ballerinas. Could happily watch this video all day long.
This speaks to my soul.
OMG! The one spinning with her hair flying free gives me chills!!! How beautiful!!!
I love this song - this was the first record that I bought and its great to play on the piano!!!!
One of the best riffs EVER for any genre of music
A really Beautiful song. Great memories as a kid. At my Grandparents house on a Friday Evening BBC2 the intro to Around with Allis
Ballet is my inspiration, motivation, love .....
Ballet is the best definition of the word beautiful
