i was today years old when i learned of this phenomenon about Tina Turner and Australia!!! that's amazing that they have so much love for her work and this song. I love Australia for this!
Good on you Rob - yep, the Nutbush Dance (Maddison) is an institution over here. Every party, every wedding reception it always gets a run!! Cheers - Dance on!
In Australia you learn the nut bush in primary school i always thought everyone knew it especially the usa when i learnt it was just Aussie thing i was so surprised
This has got my day off to a brilliant start ! I am going to learn the nutbush(traditional version) in honour of dear Tina and as my duty as an Australian. Thank you Peter !!
They just played this on the radio so I searched for the dance as it’s been years since I’ve danced it. RIP to the Queen of Rock, Tina Turner. This song reminds me of group dancing it at various RSL and leagues clubs during my late teens the early 90s
Yes - very sad. RIP Tina. The bizarre thing is that I did a TV interview on A Current Affair 2 Days ago about the 50 year anniversary of the Song. Its due to air on Saturday ... and 2 Days later the great Lady paases on!!
Hey, what a fantastic video!! We are recently listening to Tina Turner songs after she said we passed away, and my mum mentioned that when we lived over in Brisbane in Queensland that her work colleague on her, leaving, do started dancing to Nutbush city and telling her all about it being a big Queensland thing. Then I surprised her by actually getting up and starting to do the dance exactly like the old version you are doing. She was like what I had no idea you knew about this and that you could do the dance as she didn’t know that I knew all about it. I learnt how to do the dance whilst I was working in a youth hostel in Brisbane and we would always show the tourist distance so surprise Mum.
Awesome stuff - It's definitely an Aussie original - I was surprised that people overseas just don't know it - so many comments from the USA - they've never seen it!! - Dance on!!
That's awesome Markos. My father has Parkinsons. I suggest you try my YMCA Simple Dance - the movements are slower but a bit more dynamic. Could be fun - thanks for the message.
Awesome John John, glad to hear that feedback! Look out for my next Dance video - 27 simple disco moves, I'm sure you will enjoy it! A few weeks away yet! Cheers to you!
@@petergaston-danceandmore, as a kid in the 70's, this dance was very popular and I remember being taught with more of the leg cross before turning to the left. Instead of the legs to the side step at the beginning we also moved the right leg forward twice, then left leg forward twice, then right leg back twice, then left leg back twice, then the rest was the same except for the cross step, as stated earlier. 🙂🕺💃
Hi Peter, Doing what you do best DANCING!!!! I remember when the "NEW" Madison dance came out. Oh my gosh, when you broke that out in the middle of the first Madison at a party or social gathering, people used to back away & give you room, so they could see what you were doing. It was like being John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever, when they clear the dance floor & he does his Solo dance to You Should Be Dancing. Oh Halcyon days!!!! Now I'm really showing my age !!!!! Great Dance Tutorial as always. You shouldn't be that fit, it's all that "Lofty" Running. Thanks for another fabulous download. Say Hello to your Dad for us. LOVE Ruth. 🎶🕺💃🎼💖💚💛💙❤💜😎🔥💥🎤🎶💋💋
@@petergaston-danceandmore Hey Peter I totally agree with you, it's usually the older ones who will get up & start this dance. You absolutely CRACKED 😆 me up when you said at the next Wedding you go to or... Bar mitzvah we both said it at the same time !!!!!! It took me ages to stop laughing, couldn't believe when you were laughing yourself when you said it. AWESOME 💃🕺🎶🤣😎
I just heard on the news that there's a new world record of Aussies doing the (I'm thinking), original version. Such fun watching, after so many years. I'm going to ask my (millenial), daughter to play it at her wedding next year. She may need to ask guests to watch the video to learn!. I know it will be such fun😂😂
Born in 1992: the Nutbush was taught to the majority of my generation in primary school and I, as a primary teacher myself, have taught it to al of my students. I also played it at my wedding! The millennials ought to know it just fine. They should also know how to the jump/turn part correctly (‘cause this ain’t it)
@@ceg8677 Yes - correct you are - I'm ashamed of the turn. That is why I made a shorts video on my channel titled - The Nutbush Dance, the correct way to turn!
I always was taught the transition was a four count I’m fairly sure. Jump legs spread, jump to cross the legs, jump turn, legs together, start anew. Yours is only three count with an extra count of rest at the end which might work better.
Pretty sure I learned it that way too, that's how I dance it now anyway. But when I learned the Madison at Sport & Rec camps there was no fancy jump turn that I remember. I think that came later at the discos when the song was paired with the dance. 🕺💃
@@petergaston-danceandmore that's exactly what I thought. I'm making a playlist for a friends birthday party which is how I found your video. This morning, one of the other organisers was saying we need to do the nutbush but with the alternative moves and I almost shrieked when I told her about your video. After all these years, I find out there is another person who remembers these moves too!
hahaha love it. I remember doing the old version in primary school and hated it as we had to practice it all the time. I love the macarena in it its so funny. This should go viral.
I bet your neighbour was having a laugh while you made this video, but it's all fun. Hoping to surprise a good mate next time we catch up, she and her brother always do the dance when the song comes on. Now I can too :)
I remember doing a way more complicated version of the first version you did, and I thought the second version was going to be that. Then I saw you mention it was the madison, and went down that rabbithole, and what do you know, I saw all the moves we did in the super complicated version of version #1. Fun. And now I have to go and learn me how to madison again because that was so much fun. :)
@floopyboo, yes, I remember it slightly different. We started off on the the right leg, but instead of to the right and the left, it was forward then back, and there was more of the cross leg before turning to the left.
I don’t know what country you’re in, but I have never seen this dance! Or heard the song. Very interesting. My sister and I watched your disco videos and really enjoyed them, and did many of the moves at the last 70s DJ dance we went to! Stay cool, and thank you! 🎉😊
Cheers and thanks. FYI - I live in Australia and even though this song is over 40 years old, nearly EVERY body in Australia would know this song and dance!! What country are you from?? Thanks again for watching and commenting!
Everyone has always looked at me like I’m crazy when I say that there’s another version of the Nutbush! I knew I didn’t make it up 🤣 will be pulling out this one at the next event haha. Great video!
Thank you so much. I needed to look for an original Macarena or Nutbush or make my own version but luckily i found this and this is perfect for my assignment. Again thank you so much 😊
Yeah or is the Macarana a copy of this? Because it was around before the Macarana. Maybe should be called the alternative version? Thanks for watching - cheers
Hi Peter, I don't know what you've started, but everytime I look at something on YT, there's another pop up of people dancing to THE NUTBUSH, & a lot of them are a few years old. Still nowhere near as good as yours never in a million years!! I think it might be having a comeback???? 🙋♀️😎💜❤💙💛💖💚😆😊💕💕💕💋14.12.20.
Aaaaarrrggghhhhh! NO! The jump is all wrong! It goes out, cross, out, turn (all whilst jumping). None of this cross first, pause last BS. Sincerely, A passionate Nutbusher
We did this on skates at the Roller Rink (Rollerama) in the early 80s. I think the back step was a double roll back? And the 1/4 turn was mayve been a rolling version too? But in the late 70s disco era we did it much like yours, but for the turn, thought we jumped 'out' before cross leg, 1/4 turn ...to make it a 4 beat move rather that a hold for 4 (or8). But i may be wrong? Also there was a other linedance done in aussie nightclubs in the mid 80s ...think it was called the 'bus stop'? But i never learned it. Anyone know the bus stop??
I've done the Bus Stop on my channel Gypsy Steve and yes you are right about the turn - I've done a Short on my channel with the correct turn. Well done - I had trouble just standing up on Skates!!
Thankyou kikkik6856 - it was abit of fun. ( please don't mention the close ups 🤪)We did the actual interview 2 days before Tina Turner passed away!! So they postponed it.
The original is better however the new one is also cool. Probably old folks could manage that better. The steps instead of jumps are clever. Still l like to jump. 😂
Oh wow - I was interviewed by A Current Affair on Tuesday about the 50th Anniversary of the song and the Dance and then 2 days later she died! How strange! ( The interview should be on Tonight - channel 9)
I agree Daniella - its not that new, in fact we were doing it before 1996 when the Macerena was released ( I didn't invent it that's for sure) It is more recent than the original dance which I remember doing at my primary school disco in the 70s - so in comparison to the original version ... it is a newer version. Any way - thanks for commenting. Dance on!!
The first dance is the madison and was around before nutbush city limits came out in 1973. When Tina Turner re released nutbush I believe in the 90s this was developed and every body hated it
@@petergaston-danceandmore ha ha oky doke. Im thinking, I’m never going to be on a dance floor ever again at my age to use your new innovations so I guess it’s ok if gen whatever alphabet they’re at now wants to adopt it onto the original. Lol cheers 😁👍
@@petergaston-danceandmore Not too sure I'd believe that.. I've been around almost 2 decades and I've never seen or heard of a "New" version. So hard to believe there's been a "New" version dance that I nor anyone I've shown this to has heard of before 1993!
i agree - my transition is not the official one. It should be out, cross, turn land out, together and clap on 4. Just did an interview on a current affair channel 9. 50th Anniversary of the song. Airs on Saturday 27/5
Your "original" version turn is the criss cross turn, which is NOT the original version. I'm 60 and have been doing the Nutbush for over 35 years so and it was always a jump, then feet together with clap, THEN back into side steps
Hi Quentin - yes, that's how I used to do it - I have addressed it with a shorts video on my channel showing the correct way and the proper criss cross. Cheers - Dance on!!
Can you at least make the steps 12 bars long to match the phrases of the song? It doesn't feel natural to do the kick, kick, jump, cross, jump, together in the middle of a lyric.
Don't blame me Matthew - I'm just showing you the alternate version, I didn't choreograph these - look at some of the dances I did make up like Hot Stuff, I will survive and I'm too sexy - they all work with the phrasing. Cheers Peter
I... I've never had such a negative and visceral reaction to anything in my life as I did to this 'new' version! I dont use the word much, but that... That's blasphemy mate
wow ...you need to get out more, I mean seriously, I didn't invent that "new" version and its been doing the rounds since the late 80s. I crack it out half way through the traditional song and the confusion on people's faces is priceless. Thanks for your feedback...Dance on!!
The low impact is good for old people but the new one is shite. The macarena is a different dance to the Nutbush. There is one Nutbush dance dating back to NSW, Australia,1970's. No country tries to ruin its heritage (even 20th century heritage) by "adapting" things like a known dance - only bogans with no sense of culture would do that. Imagine the Ukrainians doing that with the kozachuk. Simply wouldn't happen.
Settle down mate - 1/ this "new" version was around in the 80s before the Macarena so how can it be "adapted" 2/ I didn't create it - it has been done by many before me.
i was today years old when i learned of this phenomenon about Tina Turner and Australia!!! that's amazing that they have so much love for her work and this song. I love Australia for this!

I think I could manage the new version (I am 82) 😉
This has got my day off to a brilliant start ! I am going to learn the nutbush(traditional version) in honour of dear Tina and as my duty as an Australian. Thank you Peter !!
Well said ChiChi - Dance on.
Omg, the new version is silly!
The oldie is forever the goodie. RIP Tina ❤
Fair call 😎
RIP Tina. Nutbush was her first hit in South Africa 50 years ago, we love her just as much down here but we also didn't know this dance.
Thanks for the message Edmund - dance on!!
The Old Version is Best R.I P Tina Queen of Rock❤
I’m from the US I just heard about this dance and I had to look up it looks so fun to do
Cool - it's been well known in Australia for 40 + years!
You are great Trucker Pete.. i don't like the new version, but then I'm a child of the 80s!
Thanks Laura - stick with the original and the Best!!

Absolutely!
I do too!

You’re truly an Australian hero!

The old version is the best
I've done both versions. I never knew that we Aussies were the only country in the world to do this. Yep... we're awesome... Vale Tina.

Great! I still prefer the original though.
The moves look like my aquarobics routine and I hope the instructor will play Nutbush.
I'm sure that will happen Christina 😎
When we used to do Nutbush in primary school we used to shout “Eat my shorts” during the jump

他の動画とタイミングが半拍違うようだけど、どちらが正しいんですか？
The correct way to turn is to be seen in the shorts video I did. This turn is wrong. As for the timing it should be on the beat.
Nutbush song with macarena moves ….. love it
Cherylyn Barnes invented this. You should credit her for her invention sorta thing.
Thanks for letting me know - I certainly didn't claim to invent this, just sharing it. Cheers
New version looks like an adapted Macarena
Fair comment - except it was around before the Macarena. Thanks for watching.
I was dancing to this the traditional way the way i was taught in primary back in 2016 when i found out she died
Oh wow - I was interviewed by A Current Affair on Tuesday about the 50th Anniversary of the song and the Dance and then 2 days later she died! How strange! ( The interview should be on Tonight - channel 9)

@@jodienovello5881 😁🕺
Looks like you're mixing the macarena into the Nutbush.
Let's just keep it to the original 🤣
The "new" version was around well before the Macarena!
@@petergaston-danceandmore Not too sure I'd believe that.. I've been around almost 2 decades and I've never seen or heard of a "New" version.
So hard to believe there's been a "New" version dance that I nor anyone I've shown this to has heard of before 1993!
@@Royal_BloodLust No worries - Dance on!!
The f is that second thing?
Try it ...you might like it!
That’s the Macarena gone wrong dude - what you call the new version
Yeh - the Macarena was 1993, we were doing this one in the 80s...go figure.
So basically the dance is a mix of the Macarena and the nutbush...in which one of my church mates can do flawlessly
Yep - except this was around well before the Macarena! Cheers - Dance on!
The new version is like the Macarena
Yep - except it was around before the Macarena...which means it's not really that new..but it's newer than the old version😁
Just No .... Original is always the best
The new version isn’t so new. I was dancing this version in 2001.
Fair call Kate - I was doing it back in the 90's but it's "new" for most people who don't know it. Cheers
Yeah nah there's only one version and it is jumping, jumping and more jumping then out, cross, out turn.
i agree - my transition is not the official one. It should be out, cross, turn land out, together and clap on 4. Just did an interview on a current affair channel 9. 50th Anniversary of the song. Airs on Saturday 27/5
WOULD YOU PLEASE SELL ME THOSE NIKES YOU ARE WEARING??????
Mate - so sorry I think I wore them out and they are gone man🤔
Your "original" version turn is the criss cross turn, which is NOT the original version. I'm 60 and have been doing the Nutbush for over 35 years so and it was always a jump, then feet together with clap, THEN back into side steps
Hi Quentin - yes, that's how I used to do it - I have addressed it with a shorts video on my channel showing the correct way and the proper criss cross. Cheers - Dance on!!
The new version is sinful.
Hahaha - what does that even mean? .... I love it
Fucken oath brotha
What?!?! There’s a new version?! Seriously?? Lol
When I say new ...I mean its only 35 years old compared to the original that is 45 years old!!😆
Can you at least make the steps 12 bars long to match the phrases of the song? It doesn't feel natural to do the kick, kick, jump, cross, jump, together in the middle of a lyric.
Don't blame me Matthew - I'm just showing you the alternate version, I didn't choreograph these - look at some of the dances I did make up like Hot Stuff, I will survive and I'm too sexy - they all work with the phrasing. Cheers Peter
I... I've never had such a negative and visceral reaction to anything in my life as I did to this 'new' version! I dont use the word much, but that... That's blasphemy mate
wow ...you need to get out more, I mean seriously, I didn't invent that "new" version and its been doing the rounds since the late 80s. I crack it out half way through the traditional song and the confusion on people's faces is priceless. Thanks for your feedback...Dance on!!
That is jumping not dancing...
The low impact is good for old people but the new one is shite. The macarena is a different dance to the Nutbush. There is one Nutbush dance dating back to NSW, Australia,1970's. No country tries to ruin its heritage (even 20th century heritage) by "adapting" things like a known dance - only bogans with no sense of culture would do that. Imagine the Ukrainians doing that with the kozachuk. Simply wouldn't happen.
Settle down mate - 1/ this "new" version was around in the 80s before the Macarena so how can it be "adapted" 2/ I didn't create it - it has been done by many before me.
Don't like the new version
Thanks for your feedback Doona!
If Ukranian troops blasted this out of loud speakers while doing the dance the Russians would surrender in droves and come over to their side!
Dancing beats fighting any time!!😎😎😎😎
