- The original recording of The Wah Watusi by the KCTU dancers has recently been discovered! This is the uncut version to give you a little more perspective into these recording sessions from the summer of 2014.
When the news can dent your faith in the human race, this video restores it. I hope six years down the road, all involved are happy and well.
Seriously one of my favorite videos on all of TH-cam
Me too! - I just found this version while looking for the older one
I’ve seen this video so many times because I love this show. This copy looks like you enhanced it. Beautiful picture. I wish I had all of these shows on DVD. I would pay over 100.00. Thank you so very much who ever is responsible for posting these videos.👍
"We're on camera" is still THE classic line from the video. Fantastic job of converting to HD.
Found this today because daughter age 13 was asking about the Watusi. Wonderful production, great outfits very 60's took me waay back to then. Excellent choreography, and you all look so dam cute!!! It is now 8 years after recording this and I am sure things have changed for you, but like so many stars of film, you will always have this to look back on and share with your own generations to come. Wait until the smartie says "grandma is just clueless" and you can bring this out and say, "hey, I was funner than you!!!" Kudos to all in front and behind the camera for this.
Let's do this again in 2024! Everyone can donate a few bucks
This is really great! Love this! Please do more!!! I know this is like 7 or 8 years old but this is a great concept! Current "kids" doing dance and skits that look like they're from the 50's or 60's! We need stuff like this!
Absolutely beautiful - thank you for posting! Like many commenters stated, this show gives me faith if not hope in the future of America, may be all is not lost. It is wonderful to see young people acting like "ladies" and "gentlemen", like we were taught in my youth (born 1950). I was fortunate to live the "American Graffiti days" and this presentation brings me back to a time of innocence, freedom, and optimism. Thank you James for this uplifting production - you are our future, may God bless you all! Ciao, L (Veteran)
So cute god bless these young kids
I treasured every second of this!! I hope I can find more of these and share them with all my friends - and even the people I hate. 🥰🥰🥰
All respect to the guy who kept the cardigan from slipping off his shoulders!
This is the BEST dance video on TH-cam! Well done all!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🤩🤩🤩💯💯💯💯
Loved this
It's 2014 here hence the video quality. They dress up for the 1960's song. Great stuff from very talented young folks.
It looks very believable too.
Would not have known this wasn't film from 1964 without being told at the start of the video. Great job! lol
Dìtto!
Thanks for putting this up again.
My kind of music in my day. Loved the young folks. Jogged my memory, how to Watusi.🤩
All adorable, and love the girl with the big smile.
Love it!~ u kids are awesome!
This screams for a "where are they now?" follow up.
where are they now?
Definitely a much crisper, better balanced image, certainly nothing like 1960's television! I remember that era's TV well, with it's Black & White transmissions and the TV set's "Fine Turning" knob, to rid the screen of "Snow!" Today's television is as much a curse as it is an upgrade from the 60s!
These kids are Great !
They definitely got the clothes and hair styles of the early 1960s down pat!
The best of TH-cam!
James, I don't know what you're doing now but it was refreshing to see cute kids dancing instead of the usual content those of us who have cable are forced to endure - freakshows and infomercials!
Still enjoyable. Nice to see this version.
I did radio show in 1970 reminds me of myself great job One of my favorites
The "Watusi" by the Orlons got to #2 on the charts in the summer of 1962...a CLASSIC!
I've got this on vinyl on the 'Top 10 Hits Original Artists' Wyncote label LP! I kept thinking of one of my first fancies in life, Gillian Bailey - Billie in 'Here Come The Double Deckers!' - watching the girl front and centre with the pony tail.
love this! Had me fooled!
They got the clothes and hairstyles down to a tee!
The low-def version actually had me believing it was from the 60's
that's great!!!!
I'd love to get dance lessons from Caroline!
Cool! Have you thought about doing a documentary about this whole experience?
Please enjoy this new version of the world famous Watusi Dance:
Please note:
Tusi (Noun)= Swear
Matusi (plural) = Multiple Swearing
Watusi = Peope Who Swear or like Swearing
Who are they, specifically? When will there be a reunion?
Is their going to be a reunion anytime soon?
Made me smile.
So, what happened to the dancer, 7 years later
This remastered video puts a new spin on the legendary KCTU program and dancers. Great job! Have you ever considered doing a reunion show?
Cute...good job.
This is cool
Saturday afternoon Dance Party on WGAL Lancaster pa
I wonder if the studio is in the middle of a corn field somewhere in Kansas
This video is begging to be Memed...! 😲👍
I watched the “original” about 10 min ago and was wondering how the “coloured” got in there….
You had color already in the 50s - I mean color movies.
One is the choreographer.
The young boy with the glasses, tie, and sweater is always smiling and enjoying his dancing so much. Who is he and whatever happened to him?
I agree. He's the best dancer up there, gets into it, not all stiff like the others.
Sad to think most of the guys in this video died in Vietnam.
This video was done in 2014 if u can believe that.
💀💀😂
This is not American Graffiti,,,. lol
Vintage footage!
If you consider 2014 vintage. 😊
@@rockyracoon3233 I was writing for viewers in the 2100s
Low budget all right!!! Imagine what these people would pay now to suppress and bury this! ;-0
I found Caroline on FB and sent her a message telling her how much fun her choreographed video was. She blocked me. 😔
Probably sees it as something she doesn't want to be associated with anymore for some reason. How sad.
That was rude of her.
What's the dark girl's name? Everyone name was mentioned but hers. How old were the dancers?
They look like 15/16 year olds.
instead of fox news, msnbc, abc, cnn, cbs and nbc...try this on for some much better, non hate, subjectivity.
0:43 I’m just wondering why girls do that with their hands? Why do they stick them out at their hips. Look at the center girl. She’s doing it. Is there some science or reasoning behind doing it? There’s no wrong answer
Looks like that was a LOT of fun & how cool of them to let y’all take over the studio like that.
I don’t mean to be a Debbie Downer, but you realize by now that the dance you were doing was NOT the Watusi right?
It was very good and very well rehearsed, but just not the Watusi I’m afraid. 😕
Fake 1960s show - great modern take-off!
Some of them look authentic in dress and dance. Others stick out as 21st century fakes. Great job though
