    The high school where this was filmed is closing this year. It's their last prom, and Kenny Loggins is going to be there. These kids have called it The Footloose Year!
    I'm so glad I was a teen in the 80s! So much fun!
    So many great dancers - no competition.
    We had a lot of glitter in our hair, but it was sick in AquaNet hairspray - the 80s hairspray!!

    The song was part of the soundtrack, it was made for the movie. Both movie and soundtrack helped each other succeed, it was everywhere.

    Everything about FOOTLOOSE as a movie is iconic. The song by Kenny Loggins is one that everyone knows and dances to and one of his most popular. The movie is iconic, especially for the 80's generation. This song made Kevin Bacon a household name. Growing up as a teenager in the 80's this movie was special. Most of us found it hard to believe that there were towns that didn't allow dancing and as a kid I was stunned when I found this out. The song was written for the movie and helped propel the movie, much in the same way Kenny's song - "Danger Zone" helped the movie TOP GUN. Kenny was the most prolific writer of movie songs in the 80's. "I'm Alright" for the movie CADDYSHACK, "Danger Zone" for TOP GUN, "Meet Me Halfway" for OVER THE TOP, "I'm Free" for FOOTLOOSE, "Nobody's Fool" for CADDYSHACK II. He was a hit maker for movies and made the movies explode. Movie makers knew it and called on him to write songs because his songs were so much a part of making the movies a lot of money.

    Definitely a Party! And a must dance to any time you hear it. Picture all of us older people in the car with a few friends and Footloose comes on! Yep, singin’ ‘n’ dancing’; just a whole lotta fun. And yes, JUMP was a crank it up song when it came on. I loved me some David Lee Roth!

    Travis & Suzi
    Kevin Bacon (Ren from Footloose) returned to local high school in Utah where Footloose was filmed after current high schoolers invited him for their prom last month. He agreed to come by to hang out with the students. Reason for his visit is that original school is scheduled to be demolish because new high school has current school's name. Clips of Kevin's announcement & visitation are on NBC's Today Show (Today Show's UA-cam Channel).

    Clearly, one of the best movies ever incredible 80s classic I was 14 when this song came out and I was obsessed with this movie when it came out and I still am! If you’ve never seen this movie, you need to watch this movie quintessential 80s . I’ve seen so many reactions to this and yours by far is my favorite!

    Kenny Loggins was involved in many of the biggest soundtracks of the 80’s. The song Footloose was written as the title track to the movie soundtrack. Legendary choreographer & directed Kenny Ortega did this movie & Dirty Dancing. Kevin Bacon was a very good dancer but nobody back then got close to Patrick Swayze who was a trained dancer (his mother owned a famous dance school in Texas and he and his wife were its star pupils).

    The song was released Jan 11th 1984 the movie was released Feb 17th 1984. Footloose is based on a true story. In 1979 the small town of Elmore City, Oklahoma faced a community crisis. The seniors of Elmore High School wanted to plan a senior prom, but dances were against the law thanks to a not-forgotten ordinance from the late 1800s that forbade dancing within the city limits.

    Once upon a time a man was at the doctor's office and said; " If I press on my shoulder, ouch, it hurts, and if I press on my knee, ouch, it hurts too, and if I push on my forehead, ouch, it hurts too. Doctor, what's wrong? "The doctor says;" Your finger is broken!" ;-)

    The song was written for the movie. Loggins co-wrote it along with another song for the movie, "I'm Free (Heaven Helps the Man)". The movie was about a town where the elders didn't allow dancing. Kevin Bacon saved the town ;)
    Blake Shelton did a great cover of it.

Back in the day Travis I would of loved to kill a dance floor with you as I did with my old friend. Simply awesome moves dude. Suzi busting a move also makes you 2 having danced in front of us, awesome. Travis as friends we could of got down as I did with my old buddies, hoping we can a little here.

    This was 3 years before DD.
    The song and the film pretty much came out at the same time.
    It's important to know that the premise of the movie is that it is a small rural town where dancing, and rock music, is highly looked down upon by the local church and its pastor, who preaches against it.
    Kevin Bacon's character is new to the town and comes from Chicago, and tries to loosen up the town, especially the kids, by teaching them to dance, etc.

    Choreographer (1984): Lynne Taylor-Corbett. As per Kevin Bacon, his dance scene in the warehouse, Bacon said he had 4 stunt doubles: "I had a stunt double (Peter Tramm), a dance double and two gymnastics doubles." All dance for film had at a minimum, a choreographer on set even if a dancer put in some of his/her own ad lib choreography, i.e., Elvis' "Jailhouse Rock" film; while everyone said Elvis choreographed the dance scene, choreographer Alex Romero worked w-him & (it's said)Gene Kelly was on set also, while Elvis(it is said) had much input. "Dirty Dancing" 1987.

I say this in the kindest and comical way but your parents failed if you haven't seen this brilliant movie. Please, please watch it. Do a reaction to it. You'll love it. Kenny Loggins was almost single handedly responsible for amazing movie soundtracks in the eighties. Danger Zone from Top Gun, check it out.

    FYI: "Footloose" the Movie was released 17 Febuary 1984, So the movie probably assisted the songs "Footloose" and "Let's Dance" to their spots on the Charts....... The Song "Footloose" was written for the movie......

    Very fun reaction! Great movie and a great ending scene.
    As far as Kevin Bacon or John Travolta in a dance off with Patrick Swayze, there is literally zero competition. Swayze would have put them both to shame within seconds. Travolta in his prime was an excellent dancer, and did have some training I believe. Swayze, however, was a professionally trained ballet dancer since childhood. He turned to acting after a serious knee injury ended his dancing career, but the skills remained.

    (In this movie, a tragic death was the cause of the ban)-“On the drive home, Ariel describes how, five years earlier, her older brother died in a car accident after a night of alcohol and dancing. Their father Reverend Moore then persuaded the town council to enact strict anti-liquor, anti-drug, and anti-dance laws.”- So this wasn’t just an Uptight preacher laying down what “He” believes. His tragic loss, and deathly afraid to lose his daughter, is the reason for the ban. But that’s what makes this a great story. Because in the end, they still hold the party across a town line. But Dad and Mom get to end the movie with a greater respect for their daughter, and a better relationship! Too deep? lol . Ya I thought so to. And all because this Movie brought out the best of 80s music and dance! Love ya guys/ladies!!!

    The movie Footloose was based on a small town here in Oklahoma...

  • @kenharness1417
    @kenharness1417 8 місяців тому +1

    Footloose the movie was actually based on a true story. From Wikipedia: "Footloose is loosely based on the town of Elmore City, Oklahoma. The town had banned dancing since its founding in 1898 in an attempt to decrease the amount of heavy drinking. One advocate of the dancing ban was the Reverend from the nearby town of Hennepin, F. R. Johnson. He said, "No good has ever come from a dance. If you have a dance somebody will crash it and they'll be looking for only two things-women and booze. When boys and girls hold each other, they get sexually aroused. You can believe what you want, but one thing leads to another." Because of the ban on dancing, the town never held a prom. In February 1980, the junior class of Elmore City's high school made national news when they requested permission to hold a junior prom and it was granted. The request to overturn the ban in order to hold the prom was met with a 2-2 decision from the school board when school board president Raymond Lee broke the tie with the words, 'Let 'em dance.' "

    That’s totally true about muscles being tight and making it seem like u may have carpal tunnel. My hands were numb at one point and I had a friend that was a masseuse and I must have mentioned it to her and she said to come in for a massage. Soon as I had one the numbness was gone. Both my parents had carpal tunnel surgery so it was feasible that’s what it was but in reality it wasn’t. I wonder sometimes if they even needed that surgery.
