I'm 58 years old now! When this song came out back in the 1980's, this song was BANGING all over! I always love this song. I wonder if the younger generation now, have ever dropped their moves to this track?
The younger generation don’t even talk to each other let alone get their electric boogie on! Just love that 8 Track recording with a maximum 3 second sampling capability
Yup yup, it's a multibillion-dollar business, with millions of practitioners, sponsors, etc. - so popular it's now going to be an Olympic sport in 2024.
Miss those days back in the 80s in the bronx new york man my time my era a lot of this generation don't know this was part of hip hop rap n culture were it was big I know it started in the 70S but it hit big on the 80s for what I remember it was underground in the 70s no rap music yet on radio only Disco then my generation was saying disco is dead but I like disco now I'm older now so I hear it different
then it took uk by storm glad I was part of this era.going to diffrent cities to challenge other crews in shopping centres.my fellow dancer they were the days God I miss them simple times
I remember the days when every mall you went to breakdancers would face off to each other and the big ghetto blasters, tapes with mixed songs and a roll of vinyl mat
I wish I would've grown up there. To bad I was born in the south Bronx and split to TX back in 81. I would have been a KING. PAINTING or a BBOY. It's in my heart. I Love N.Y.!!!
Yeah definitely. I grew up in DFW during the mid 80s and 90s. NYC had so much more culture back then where things originated from. We didn't have shit in DFW
What started out as innocent innovations made many guys who played in small venues in New York to California into billionaire business men of today. This is the genius of blacks who took lemons and made lemonade and along the way created an industry that made so many rich in the process
Oh, this brings back memories of our dance crew in high school. I was the windmill, swipes, head spin and hand spin specialist. Another was robot/ pop-locking. Those were the days.
This was the black urban version of punk. Do it yourself attitudes. They created the scene themselves. Record companies were confused, they created their own style of street fashion, their own dance routines and moves. It was fresh and exciting and original. And it was fun!!
Where are those poppers? Lol.hey its all good.i love watching this and any old school videos of breakers and poppers.im 51 now but i use to hang with the best of them.cant break too much anymore thou but i can still do some shit.i can thou still pop my ass off.im always goofing and dancing for my grandkids.lol.they love it.i got my 5 year old grand daughter doing some shit.she is getting good.i show them all my old vhs tapes of me and my crew from back in the day.
I grew up with it in Paris i was 10 and i've learned back spin at the time at : " La tour MontParnasse " Hip hop is in my blood still the death long live to Hip hop...
It’s amazing to see how it started and now what these people are capable of nobody could have imagined the things these people are doing however there more gymnastic then dance this has soul.
This is original. Bboy I am 52 now I remember breaking in ny and Boston pumas fat shoe fat shoelaces windbreakers Lee jeans . Man nothing like the original bboy. Am a original bboy 4 Life
heureusement que j ai connu cette bonne chanson breakdance et d autres entre la Funk La Disco le Rap et la House of Chicago les années 80 c était pleins de styles different mais bon en musique pour les jeunes et avec le recul les meilleures années pour moi !
All remember the real Electric boogie master's were my pops crew out of Los Angeles EBM...they were the shitt 🔥 👌 💯 real poplockers and breakers those were my pops oldskool days...
While I just missed these times, I was really young back then. My time was the 1990's and you better believe when breaking came back in the late 1990's-early-2000's I was all about it. I was popping and locking all over the underground rave scene in Miami, Tampa, Orlando, and Jacksonville. I was damn good... One thing is for sure, things aren't like this anymore. Kid's today are an absolute bore fest. If they're not watching and trying to emulate idiocy on Tik Tok they're pitching a bitch about politics. What kind of a life is that? Well...whatever, we Gen X'ers knew how to do it right. Case in point- this awesome music video brought to you by Generation X.
Todays hip hop lacks flavour. Don't get me wrong it's good and amazing skills. But, just hasn't got soul. The cardboard, the tracksuits, the crowd, the music....80's.
I love 80s and 90s hip hop and rap, and at primary school in our assembly hall as small kids Hey You by the Rock Steady Crew was in the chart, and some of the boys and me (no other girls would try) tried to emulate the breakdance moves on the slippery parqueted floor, and we were rubbish and looked like turtles on our backs lol legs akimbo and flailing! I was way better at robot dancing and body popping. Brings back those slippery hall memories! Great stuff and to see teens in the vid doing it properly.
Me Born on a Rain Forest, move to Hollywood 1977 , 5 years later, I was a King 👑 of the best crew in LA , Midnight Breakers ,Crush Crew, it all started with Lionel's Richard, and my best friend laron, my Dance teacher, (allnightlone)lionel Richie video.
Cool video BUT the East Coast was so much better at ground work while the West was better at Pop Locking..I lived on both coast in the 80s and saw that for myself..
I wish break dancing would have caught on and stayed on like skateboarding did it'd be sick if they had like a x games and a Street League for f****** breakdancing !
One of the most epic times to be alive. So raw, so original.
We need our culture to shift back to this
God yeah
Agree 👊
I'm 58, and yes it was
Oh dude, yes!!!!
I remember takein out the cardboard box laying it out in the driveway and breakin with my friends in the 80s.
we had a six by six roll of kitchen floor linoleum that we used to roll up and take around with us. Much better for slipping around on.
80s will never be matched by this boring generation
Memories of better times. People in the moment, present with eachother there in one spot, not holding phones up recording like robots.
Word up!!
THIS...
You're so right...
Bring back the 80's man...
I'm 58 years old now! When this song came out back in the 1980's, this song was BANGING all over! I always love this song. I wonder if the younger generation now, have ever dropped their moves to this track?
The younger generation don’t even talk to each other let alone get their electric boogie on!
Just love that 8 Track recording with a maximum 3 second sampling capability
@@jacobcrumb3323 Digital delays were used to sample before sampling
machines were produced, reversing tech back in the day. lol
Most of the younger generation don't have any moves to drop. 😂😂
Yup yup, it's a multibillion-dollar business, with millions of practitioners, sponsors, etc. - so popular it's now going to be an Olympic sport in 2024.
from spain : heeey 50 years old and still can spin on my back!!!!
White, black, brown, nobody cared we was all breaking and having good clean fun, i remember first learning to break 🙃 great times

I still envision all the trains covered in graffiti. The city was colorful! Precious times!
Talented and gifted dancers. Phenom. I’m so glad I saw breakdancers live in the eighties.
thisis the real Breakin / Poppin not the gymnastic garbage of today
I remember the days when every mall you went to breakdancers would face off to each other and the big ghetto blasters, tapes with mixed songs and a roll of vinyl mat

Those red K Swiss ol school suits were nice👌 ! The PONY suits were FRESH also!!
No one did it better then crazy legs, freeze and Ken swift
Crazy legs Eddie and his gurl og smurfette .boy the still around
What started out as innocent innovations made many guys who played in small venues in New York to California into billionaire business men of today. This is the genius of blacks who took lemons and made lemonade and along the way created an industry that made so many rich in the process
This music sounds so much better when watching breakdancing.
Well, it's just a breakloop followed by scratching and some other records on the table with vocals/doubling
Where did all of this go?... So sad that great things disappear.
Those were the good old days. Now, sadly there are guns
Miss the real days. Back in Jersey City.
They need to bring those jumpers back out
Go to Montgomery wards on jc pennny or when in L.A
The garment district the tru holyest of holy grail of fashion.
Those were the days.
Oh, this brings back memories of our dance crew in high school. I was the windmill, swipes, head spin and hand spin specialist. Another was robot/ pop-locking. Those were the days.
Best era of hip hop fashion 👌 kangols n adidas outfits ah miss those dayz
No no this was not hip hop come on yall don't be quote if u don't actually no
Juzz saying
I love hip hop
memories of our dance crew,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,The Best Years
Legend classic song old school music my favorite song
The best thing about being Gen-X is that everything from my youth sucked, but it was new, so it's heralded as the GOAT LOL.
Damn wood kill for all those people tracksuits 💯 pure 🔥🔥🔥😎
Old school from when I was a dancer myself. These moves you don't even see that much these days.
Honestly u probably never will cause hip hop is dead as door knob
B-Boying is bigger than ever, you see it plenty, just not as a mainstream dance.
same here,today they seem to use way to many gymnastic moves.not proper in my book.
🤸♂️🤸♂️🤸♂️🤸♂️🤸♂️🤸♂️🤸♂️.........Electric boogie
J'avais 13ans a l'époque et je dansais comme un pied
Looking back no gang fight just brothers have fun with skills
NEVER SEEN THIS 1 BEFORE. 84 WAS A GREAT YEAR. WE WERE B-BOYING AND POPPIN BEFORE THE MOVIES CAME OUT. LOCO ALBUQUERQUE N.M 🙏
Hellz yeah miss these days.
This was the black urban version of punk. Do it yourself attitudes. They created the scene themselves. Record companies were confused, they created their own style of street fashion, their own dance routines and moves. It was fresh and exciting and original. And it was fun!!

This is a jam. I am surprised I haven't heard any modern musicians sample parts of this song. If so, I need to check them out.

old school rocks, i don't know what's going on with hip hop these days. i just understand i'm rich, i'm beautiful, in the name of jesus.
Todays hip hop lacks flavour.
Don't get me wrong it's good and amazing skills. But, just hasn't got soul.
The cardboard, the tracksuits, the crowd, the music....80's.
