    Oh, what, wow
    He's the greatest dancer
    Oh, what, wow
    That I've ever seen
    Oh, what, wow
    He's the greatest dancer
    Oh, what, wow
    One night in a disco on the outskirts of Frisco
    I was cruising with my favorite gang
    The place was so boring filled with out-of-towners touring
    I knew that it wasn't my thing
    I really wasn't caring, but I felt my eyes staring
    At a guy who stuck out in the crowd
    He had the kind of body that would shame Adonis
    And a face that would make any man proud
    Oh, what, wow
    He's the greatest dancer
    Oh, what, wow
    That I've ever seen (ooh)
    Oh, what, wow
    He's the greatest dancer
    Oh, what, wow
    The champion of dance, his moves will put you in a trance
    And he never leaves the disco alone
    Arrogance but not conceit, as a man he's complete
    My creme de la creme, please take me home
    He wears the finest clothes, the best designers Heaven knows
    Ooh, from his head down to his toes
    Halston, Gucci, Fiorucci
    He looks like a still, that man is dressed to kill
    Oh, what, wow
    He's the greatest dancer
    Oh, what, wow
    That I've ever seen (I've ever seen)
    Oh, what, wow
    He's the greatest dancer
    Oh, what, wow (ooh, ooh, ooh-wow)
    Oh, what, wow (hey)
    He's the greatest dancer
    Oh, what, wow
    That I've ever seen (I love your moves)
    Oh, what, wow
    He's the greatest dancer
    Oh, what, wow (that I've ever seen)
    Oh, what, wow
    He's the greatest dancer
    Oh, what, wow
    That I've ever seen (I've ever seen)
    Oh, what, wow
    He's the greatest dancer
    Oh, what, wow (ooh, ooh, ooh-wow)
    Oh, what, wow (hey)
    He's the greatest dancer
    Oh, what, wow
    That I've ever seen (I love your moves)
    Oh, what, wow
    He's the greatest dancer
    Oh, what, wow (that I've ever seen)

    We have to rely on the Dutch for decent pictures and sound quality from the 1970s.
    Kathy always looks so innocent in these early videos, with those braces.

    Comments on classic videos can never just be about how good the music is, the comments have to be really grumpy and exaggerate how terrible things are today.

    I always loved this song. I don't remember this choreography, but I was never into planned out routines.
