I was really in love with this girl and this was our song she made for s Playlist. I got ghosted and I heard she got married. I hope she's happy out there somewhere. This takes me back to our happy times together ❤️
Okay let's get this straight, if I had to choose one homemade video of a song on TH-cam I would choose this one. I love this, I've been watching this video since 2011 and I still find it amazing. The light, the setting, the girls, the atmosphere.... If you guys who made this ever read this comment, I am giving you my best compliments on this video... Great job!
It was "Dancer" that brought me here. I love the film and have watched it many times. Was a dancer in my childhood youth, but unlike Sergei's parents, mine wouldn't lift a finger to help tho they took great joy in bragging about having a daughter who people admired for her dancing talent. Dancing and training in ballet since I was 5 years old. At age 11, when I was admitted to the New York City Ballet training school (the US equivalent to Britain's Royal Ballet at the time), I had to go by myself to downtown Brooklyn on the NYC subway in the late afternoon after school and come home on it alone after dark. Tho I was 11 turning 12, I was not yet physically maturing. I was a late "bloomer" physically and still looked like a little girl of 9 or 10 years of age, One night, a man saw me walking home from the subway alone in the dark and tried to "befriend" me and convince me to come with him. Fortunately, I had good instincts and didn't respond. And fortunately, where we were walking, there were some other people around. So he gave up. If he had walked with me a couple of blocks more, we would have been in a dark place and no one around. I was lucky he didn't kidnap me. I told my parents when I got home; my dad called the police. They came to the house but it became clear my dad just wanted the attention for himself. So they questioned me but there was little I could tell them. There was not much I could say about what the man looked like. So the police just left. After that, my mother still made me go alone to the ballet school. I started resisting going. I didn't understand why at that time - I loved dance, ballet and modern - I didn't understand till decades later that I was resisting due to fear because of what happened to me. But my mother told me that if I didn't go, I'd have to give up ballet. I loved ballet so much. I started dancing when I was 3, just like Sergei and I couldn't stop. I would dance anywhere and everywhere, in stores, while online for the movies, and people's homes. But somehow, I couldn't make myself go to the ballet school. I grieved giving up ballet. When I reached 14 years old, finally physically maturing, having grown over 8 inches, I was no longer afraid to go places by myself. I started to take ballet classes again, but I lost much of my talent. You have to be dance training all through your childhood physical maturity so your muscles and agility grow properly for dance. It was too late by the time I felt old enough and savvy enough to go on my own. I grieved the loss of my dance life for years, But while in college, I developed academic inclinations and went on into university academia. It was then I was able to let go of the grief of losing dance. Because I knew then that one's dancing career and abilities started to decline after 30 - whereas intellectual pursuits lasted a lifetime. I am about to turn 75 and I am still teaching and writing and publishing. I am also very physically active. But I still miss dance. And I have watched "Dancer" many times over. I watched it again tonight and this time, sought out this song. Glad to have found it.
This song makes me cry like a little bitch cause all I can see is my momma dancing smiling in whatever you consider heaven to be.thank you I know she's adore this song.
I always sing this song to my dog because I like the part when she says "words can never make up for what you do" since my dog can't tell me what I mean to him.
My first love showed me this song. Obsessed with it 12 years later. Just started talking to her just recently and she's still got that beautiful old soul. Sent her this song hopefully she enjoys it as much as I still do.
This is a beautifully made video. I especially love the scenes where the model/actress is spinning in what seems a small enclosure of brick walls. The contrasting colors - blue walls/surroundings, red dress and orange hair - are so amazing. I absolutely adore this song and believe this video captures the overall feel and essence the lyrics and simplicity in the sounds portray. Very impressive. Love the video. Love Lykke Li. I have favorited this video.
haha twirling and scuttling in my room right now! some of you english singers have the cutest voices!! the way she says "dance" like "daunce" u can tell ha Americans (like me :D) wish we could speak that adorably!!!!
Having trouble telling how I feel But I can dance, dance, dance Couldn't possibly tell you how I mean But I can dance, dance, dance So when I'm tripping my feet, look at the beat The words are written in the sand When I'm shaking my hips, look for the swing The words are written in the air Ooh dance, I was a dancer all along Dance, dance, dance Words could never make up for what you do Easy conversations, no such thing No, I'm shy, shy, shy My hips they lie cause in reality I'm shy, shy, shy So when I'm tripping my feet, look at the ground The words are written in the dust When I'm shaking my hips, look for the swing The words are written in the air Ooh dance, I was a dancer all along Dance, dance, dance Words could never make up for what you do Ooh dance, I was a dancer all along Dance, dance, dance Words could never make up for what you do Ooh dance, I was a dancer all along Dance, dance, dance Words could never make up for what you do Dance, dance, dance Dance, dance, dance Dance, dance, dance Dance, dance, dance Dance, dance, dance Dance, dance, dance Dance, dance, dance Dance, dance, dance Dance, dance, dance Dance, dance, dance
the first ii ever heard lykke it was this song but it was on s sidewalk in a city and a fan wad hollering in their direction and her percussionist was playing on the rail and playing a tiny keyboard for percussion . i was transformed nothing has been the same since ii play four of her song regularly at events, this one included, they do get requested even tho my audience is unfamiliarity with lykke. all of her air-play is in the over-sea.
this is a great video, and an amazingly cute, positive song, sooo far away from all the spears, aguilera, gaga and such....THANKS LYKKE LEE for making real music fun and awesome.....U got another fan!!!!!
I love how at the end she's dancing past all those different people and some of them are flat-out sprinting to their train or whatever. Also, when she's in front of the cafe, she's sort of dancing like she's going to bump into this one guy and he's giving her this look like "that bitch better not bump into me!" lol
at first i did not really appreciate the video, but the second time i watched it , i was moved this is really beautiful, i have a 14 year old daughter, and i hope she never loses, what this little girl is experiencing !
could u be any more of an dancer? im sure, but im dont have to, u've already reached perfection, hope i can see u live. much luvv to every fann and her especially.
I'm a big black man from america, and I am happy that I did the same thing as this young girl while I was in copenhagen. We must never lose our joy, as it spreads to others around us. Dance dance dance
Pará fue ayer el 2008.. Salíamos con mis amigos.. Vivía con mis viejos.. Hacíamos de todo.. Hoy ya es todo distinto.. No veo más a mis amigos.. no tengo mas a mis viejos.. Y no se puede salir a ningun lado.. Pandemia de 💩💩 Escuchando música y bailando con mi hijita.. 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️😷😷😷
She's from Sweden (like me ^^) but I think it's recorded in Copenhagen train station...I was there this summer. Well, I don't know :) But she is soo great! :D
....this beautiful song and this beautiful video express the true joy of living...c'mon heads up,I know it's a vale of tears on the whole but let's dance,dance,dance....
This video kicks much ass!! Kudos!!! Already loved her... and the song... the video is utter perfection. It is exactly what this song makes me feel. Just want to happily dance through life with this as my soundtrack. Thanks!
michael najera I do! It's funny because...whenever everyone else is dancing (at some event or another) I feel more awkward about it But I dance while out shopping... Checking the mail... All kinds of mundane tasks... Though you could never get me to dance...at an actual dance At parties I'm a wallflower ;p)
I had this song on my phone freshman year, and I loooved it. Im not sure why, but I love Lykke's voice and I loved the beat and, of course, the lyrics. I would play it constantly, and everytime I did my best friend would be like "uhhhhg that crazy tribal music again??" Some people are so used to mindless pop music. smh.
Everything I see by this artist shows me she is one of the most talented and innovative artists in the world today. Everything she does is fresh, provocative, interesting, and innovative. But not at the expense of the quality of the music. Refreshing and inspiring;.
Jakub Wrona Nah, some songs by Lykke Li appeared in my Pandora playlist some time ago. Then when i was watching this episode i was like "Is this Lykke Li playing in the background? Gotta check".
The song itself sounds like it's being sung by a kid, imo. So, childish, innocent-style dancing fits, I think. Dancing is simply a form of self-expression, after all. I don't think the director was really going for a Michael Jackson style music video =)
This is the best song to listen to on a sad day. It literally makes you smile and you all of a sudden forget about your worries.
U still alive my guy ?
And I think Elvis Costello for some weird reason while listening to this.
This song With the morgan masson surf video is pure bliss
I was really in love with this girl and this was our song she made for s Playlist. I got ghosted and I heard she got married. I hope she's happy out there somewhere. This takes me back to our happy times together ❤️
Dance dance dance …always ✨Hoping to come Back in another 15 years 🤩
If u see this, please remind me!!
I'd love to come back
Thank you
You should do a Playlist with your favorites songs here in youtube. Always work for me!😊
I see this.. 2 year later.. i remind you! Every day just dance, dance, dance ❤
come back if you love to...
Come back 😊
come back

2009 for me and it still sounds as good as the first time I heard it!!!!!
I'm watching this video also already for years, its beautiful.
same guys, same
Whole heartedly agree!!

I always sing this song to my dog because I like the part when she says "words can never make up for what you do" since my dog can't tell me what I mean to him.
I was just singing this to my dog!
Do you still have your dog?
I still remember when this song was realeased. Still love it!
Girl in this is so beautiful and full of life, this song always brings up my day!
This song makes me feel happy, even when i'm sad.

Same here.. first discovered her from Little Bit
Same :)
12 years now lol
Same! my friend shared it recently, so it takes me back to my high school days listening to this song.
Essa garota é demais. Há tempos que ouço suas músicas e não enjoo.
Dance dance dance, tonight e possibility são as melhores.
You have to admit, she's got an angelic voice.
How long have you been gone deaf?
My first love showed me this song. Obsessed with it 12 years later. Just started talking to her just recently and she's still got that beautiful old soul. Sent her this song hopefully she enjoys it as much as I still do.
Still have an X on her?

haha twirling and scuttling in my room right now! some of you english singers have the cutest voices!! the way she says "dance" like "daunce" u can tell

This song actually makes me want to dance.
Especially when the trumpet kicks in.
:)
czesio mówi: ZAJEBIASZCZY kawałek nuty!
czesio chce tańczyć jak ta pani!
That song is awesome!
Greetings from Poland!
lykke li and her amazing music brought me here
She looks so glamorous, really suits her with the style of the music.❤
Having troubles telling how I feel, but I can dance, dance, dance;
Couldn't possibly tell you how I mean, but I can dance, dance, dance.
Hell yeah!!
Used to watch and listen to this video when I was in college 🥹❤ and now it’s 15 years after. ❤❤❤
...time...poof!
Having trouble telling how I feel
But I can dance, dance, dance
Couldn't possibly tell you how I mean
But I can dance, dance, dance
So when I'm tripping my feet, look at the beat
The words are written in the sand
When I'm shaking my hips, look for the swing
The words are written in the air
Ooh dance, I was a dancer all along
Dance, dance, dance
Words could never make up for what you do
Easy conversations, no such thing
No, I'm shy, shy, shy
My hips they lie cause in reality
I'm shy, shy, shy
So when I'm tripping my feet, look at the ground
The words are written in the dust
When I'm shaking my hips, look for the swing
The words are written in the air
Ooh dance, I was a dancer all along
Dance, dance, dance
Words could never make up for what you do
Ooh dance, I was a dancer all along
Dance, dance, dance
Words could never make up for what you do
Ooh dance, I was a dancer all along
Dance, dance, dance
Words could never make up for what you do
Dance, dance, dance
Dance, dance, dance
Dance, dance, dance
Dance, dance, dance
Dance, dance, dance
Dance, dance, dance
Dance, dance, dance
Dance, dance, dance
Dance, dance, dance
Dance, dance, dance
Its about time some new music that doesn't sound like a 130 beats per minute crammed into 3 minutes to make a single. Thanks Ms. Li!
the film "Dancer" (2016) brought me here. It was suitable to be there; thanks Sergei Polunin for inspiring me more
Me too
Me too! what an incredible movie and what a great song for it.
the first ii ever heard lykke it was this song but it was on s sidewalk in a city and a fan wad hollering in their direction and her percussionist was playing on the rail and playing a tiny keyboard for percussion .
i was transformed
nothing has been the same since
ii play four of her song regularly at events, this one included, they do get requested even tho my audience is unfamiliarity with lykke. all of her air-play is in the over-sea.
i first heard her sing on the app sound cloud now im obsessed with everything she does but not in the creepy way
this is a great video, and an amazingly cute, positive song, sooo far away from all the spears, aguilera, gaga and such....THANKS LYKKE LEE for making real music fun and awesome.....U got another fan!!!!!
I love how at the end she's dancing past all those different people and some of them are flat-out sprinting to their train or whatever. Also, when she's in front of the cafe, she's sort of dancing like she's going to bump into this one guy and he's giving her this look like "that bitch better not bump into me!" lol
A garota que fez esse vídeo para a música é sensacional! Ficou tão nostálgico quanto a música. Amo demais! ❤
Essa mulher é uma deusa!!!!
This looks like it might have been shot at Copenhagen's main train station. Wonderful song by the way...
thought so too
Dora Kalogianni There's no doubt, it Is "københavns hovedbanegård"Hurra for us! ;-)
***** lovely place and beautiful city! I visited the Copenhagen last November :)
at first i did not really appreciate the video, but the second time i watched it , i was moved this is really beautiful, i have a 14 year old daughter, and i hope she never loses, what this little girl is experiencing !
I ❤ this song. I love to dance it with my school 😊 its old.but its still a.good song.
Love, love, love from Serbia! Lykke Li is HUUUUGE here!
Filmed in Copenhagen, it seems. :D
Love your voice, Lykke Li. :)
Thanks for your comment, I was just finding out if it was Copenhagen's central station, because I was there last year, it's very beautiful :)
could u be any more of an dancer? im sure, but im dont have to, u've already reached perfection, hope i can see u live. much luvv to every fann and her especially.
I found this when I was 14 or 15 and then used to ride around in my first car blasting it on two 12" subs
me2😂
I'm a big black man from america, and I am happy that I did the same thing as this young girl while I was in copenhagen. We must never lose our joy, as it spreads to others around us. Dance dance dance
this reminds me of when i was a kid, i remember playing with my skirt and spinning and not knowing how to really dance but wanting to anyway :)
Keep doing it girl. Never stop dancing even when others tell you to stop.
Very cool it has a positive vibe to it :D
Ohh...that's simply beautiful. Lykke Li sounds amazing!!
Barıştan geldim. Her geçen gün sana daha çok hayran oluyorum Barış Murat YAĞCI❤🇹🇷

I love her voice...
2008, no te olvido. Precioso momento.
Deja vú.

Vivía con mis viejos..
Hacíamos de todo..
Hoy ya es todo distinto..
No veo más a mis amigos..

Y no se puede salir a ningun lado..
Pandemia de 💩💩
Escuchando música y bailando con mi hijita..
🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️😷😷😷
She's from Sweden (like me ^^) but I think it's recorded in Copenhagen train station...I was there this summer. Well, I don't know :)
But she is soo great! :D
....this beautiful song and this beautiful video express the true joy of living...c'mon heads up,I know it's a vale of tears on the whole but let's dance,dance,dance....
"I was a dancer all along"
My thoughts 4 and a half years ago, and it still feels weird to me
lovley song. sweet video ! :)
I like how the birds are flying around her while shes dancing.
i like how she says dance, dance, dance. :)
Great video for this song. :)
I loved her outfit.
Am I the only one that thinks of the song "Cat! I'm a kitty cat, and I dance, dance, dance and I dance, dance, dance" when I listen to this song?
+joannyyy I do too
i too too
best comment ever
This video kicks much ass!! Kudos!!! Already loved her... and the song... the video is utter perfection. It is exactly what this song makes me feel. Just want to happily dance through life with this as my soundtrack. Thanks!
I love you Lykke Li
The video is in my opinion weird, cute, fragile and imperfect like her voice
And here I thought I was the only one who danced in public like that... very cool...
Do you really thats adorable.
michael najera I do!
It's funny because...whenever everyone else is dancing (at some event or another) I feel more awkward about it
But I dance while out shopping...
Checking the mail...
All kinds of mundane tasks...
Though you could never get me to dance...at an actual dance
At parties I'm a wallflower ;p)
michael najera Even when the bosses are away... I've been known to boogie down at work...haha ;)
omg absolutely a gem !
This is how I like to think of her.
Lykke Li before House of Cards and automobile ads.
I miss her...
Iove the way she says Dance, Dance, Dance. Wonderful!
dance dance danceeeee
I had this song on my phone freshman year, and I loooved it. Im not sure why, but I love Lykke's voice and I loved the beat and, of course, the lyrics.
I would play it constantly, and everytime I did my best friend would be like "uhhhhg that crazy tribal music again??"
Some people are so used to mindless pop music. smh.
I love this song forever and ever...beautiful song and video
Dude I've been watching this vid for years at least 500 plays and just want to thank you
Thanks to the film 'Dancer' (2016)...i love Sergei Polunin
Same here
Just because she doesn't move like beyonce doesn't mean she's not dancing. There's something beautifully sincere about this video and I like it :)
1. Listen to this song.
2. Take Cha Cha classes.
3. Teach Cha Cha to your girl.
4. Dance Dance Dance.
5. Be Happy.
6. The End :)
:)
Your comment fits perfect with the song
Love that first dress!! :)
2019!!!
Everything I see by this artist shows me she is one of the most talented and innovative artists in the world today. Everything she does is fresh, provocative, interesting, and innovative. But not at the expense of the quality of the music. Refreshing and inspiring;.

She forgot the "e" when she spelled dance the third time lol.
love love loveeee the lyrics!!!!
House of Cards brought me here
what scene did this song play in? :o
theNewDanger02 foot jobs brought me here
nałóż dobre słuchawki i słuchaj !!1 cała przyjemność po mojej stronie
Very twirly.
I'm glad she's evolved into a more mature singer/songwriter these days.
me too but thankful for these songs too :)
House of Cards S3E07
You've also used Shazam? ;)
Jakub Wrona
Nah, some songs by Lykke Li appeared in my Pandora playlist some time ago. Then when i was watching this episode i was like "Is this Lykke Li playing in the background? Gotta check".
***** That's exactly what came acrross my mind when i was seenig that episode...one of those moments where you smile knowing the song :D
***** I guess your music taste doesn't catch up with manners and communication skills.
Josh H, you are the epiphany of a hipster douchebag. Congratulations.
Truly an amazing video!! I love Lykki Li!
That's not dancing, she's just spinning in one spot
A3DFX Dance, is an expression she is expressing her dancing in a different way.
There is numerous meanings behind the word dance.
Thank you for making this video.
you'd think they could have gotten someone who could actually dance. Not just twirl around or shuffle her feet :(
The song itself sounds like it's being sung by a kid, imo. So, childish, innocent-style dancing fits, I think. Dancing is simply a form of self-expression, after all. I don't think the director was really going for a Michael Jackson style music video =)
its for the effect, just simply shaking her hips moving in the air
I'm just so in love with the song and the video it's so old school, I dont know it gives me nice feelings. I love it
the coat is soooo beautiful!^^ ♥
OMG again such a beautiful song as all of her others love your music leekie hehe:)
the video is genious! ;)
The song, too, of course =)
her dress is so cute. I'm glad I found her music today, it's very good.
