pro trick: you can watch series at kaldroStream. I've been using it for watching lots of of movies during the lockdown.
@Harrison Victor yea, I have been using flixzone} for months myself =)
Absolutely correct.
I'd give anything to return to the 70's. What a great time to be young! I loved it!
The 1970s were the BEST of times, it was the 1960s perfected and before the 1980s exaggerated self-narcissistic “look at me industrial complex” era began.
Yes a great time before HIV/AIDS we had no idea what was just a few years away..
It literally was "the best of times." This era was my childhood -- I was 10 years old when this song came out and started playing at our local Skate-Inn. MAN, was this song ever fun to skate to!! SOooo where's that time machine?? I wanna go back and let my daughter experience what life was like when it was still good! :P
I had a lot more fun when I was in my 20's in the seventies than I am in my seventies in the 20's...
I loved THIS SONG in 1976 - and still do! RIP VICKI SUE!
What do you remember the most about the 70’s? What cities were you living in in the 70?
Vicki Sue Robinson had one of the great disco hit of that era that she nailed the vocal on but more importantly it was just a good tune. RIP Vicki Sue Robinson.

Ella es Fantastica Vicki.Sue Robinson
I used to date Puerto Ricans looking like Ms. Vickie Sue Robinson back in the day... who was not Puerto Rican.....
She was biracial, Black and caucasian
Yes, Jerry Lewis. I didn’t realize that song was more than 6 minutes long.
hope we can turn the beat around coronavirus - got to hear percussion from the world
Vicki é uma gatinha, adoro essa energia contagiante.
And Gloria Estefan would go on to bring this back to life ...love bothers versions
Agreed; I was in high school when Vickie Sue's version hit the airwaves and I thought it could never be duplicated but then came along Gloria Estefan and she nailed it. Too bad it came from a lousy Sly Stallone movie.
Vickie owns it.
this song goes hard
Rip Vicki
She was as incredibly talented as she was incredibly beautiful
Terrific ❤
I REMEMBER WATCHING THIS VIDEO WHEN I WAS 7 YEARS
Great music.
I'm not in this generation of the 70s but this was fun
Jerry Lewis is dancing 😁😁😁
Lol
I still call it the 1976 jerry lewis telethon then after this it rolled to 9 million dollars
Great song, brings me back to my childhood
I love the dance on this latine disco inferno rythm. Revolutionize the contemporary dance
RIP ( Beauty) !

Vicki Sue Robinson Turn The Beat Around
MAGICO, MARAVILLOSO, FORMIDABLE Y OBSESIONANTE SONIDO INICIAL DEL PIANO O TECLADO SINTETIZADOR, NO SE CUAL ES.
R.i.p.Vickie
My Oldest Sister Veronica was born 1976, February 28,1976 Puerto Rican, Spanish, Latino, Puerto Rican the Bronx, New York. She from new York, she Puerto Rican.
I really like this better than Gloria Estefan's hit.
So y'all gon act like you don't see Jeffrey daniels (Shalamar) at 3"04 in the pink/red jumpsuit come to the front a d start dancing with Vickie Sue and then at 3:08 give us a GLIMPSE of what will become his signature dance....THE MOONWALK!
RIP Vicky sue
For many, this national broadcast was the first time they'd actually seen real disco moves. It was also the beginning of the backlash when they tried to reproduce them and wound up in the emergency room!
I love Disco music! Donna Summer ruled! Vickie Sue Robinson beat Gloria Estaban and the Miami Sound Machine to the punch.
😻😻💖💖
What a smokin hot mama she was back then.
January to July 1976.
I didn't know people were break dancing in the 70s
Breakdancing first originated in the '70s just FYI
@@stealthskater5674 I wouldn't know, I was born in the 70s, but I remember the 80s very well
@@ropongi1008 I read a lot
😮😮😮
A few years later a load of Homer Simpson lookalikies publicly burnt records of this music while chanting the words 'DISCO SUCKS'... Thank God the likes of Frankie Knuckles and Larry Levan had different ideas.
Jerry Lewis 🤣🤣🤣🤣
1:46 Humble beginings for Bret Hart.
I know Jerry Lewis was not in the background trying to dance, LMAO! Nah Jerry let the Soul Train dancers handle that!

Breakdancing was around in the 1970's? I thought it started it all in the 1980's.
Jeffrey Daniel (Shalamar) in red outfit.
Gloria Estefan sounds so much like her when she sings this song.
Reminds me of Fame
Voice gloria estefan
no caring was it black or white it was only music
Vicki Sue Robinson was black
@@gummy5862 Why is that important? You totally miss the point the person was making which is that Vicki Sue Robinson touched everyone no matter who with her talent. Did I help you understand the point? Your welcome!
@@tod3msn I’m p sure this person thought she was white based on how she looks in certain pictures and videos.
❤️❤️❤️👀🎶🎶🎶❤️👻
SUPER 🔝💯🇧🇷🐝
Was this a live performance or lip-synched? I can’t tell! Thanks.
Terry Crews já estava lá!

Bella canción pero los bailarines dejan mucho que desear, no bailan de acuerdo al ritmo
urning the Beat around is a serious offence in the eyes and ears of professional musicians. One time my dad was playing some jazz with a few folks and the bass player turned the beat around on accident and all the other musicians stopped playing and immediately killed the bass player. They take it seriously and they will swarm like a pack of wolves if necessary. This kind of thing happens all the time in the industry and it never gets reported. You have to be in the know.
Anybody wearing feathered boas these days ?
Chuck E. Cheese anyone?
Gloria esf.have's a nother hits out remarvel...singers,.but wjen i.had saw.a pict of this person, i.mistaken again can't all the times correctly,
But man in black….
Dancers just freestyling. Would've been cooler to see a synchronized group dance.
@@MichaelMosesHammer
You had to wait a whole year for that.
shames shes lip synchin'
Thanks to Jerry for ruining this
These dancers are awful- their approach just doesn't fit this song. Maybe got to do with being black & having to adapt to a Latin rhythm. Vicki Sue had to carry the song herself and she carried it
A lot of these dancers ended up having successful careers. This segment didn't really showcase the great dancing at the time on Soul Train. And this song was written and produced by African Americans. Performed by African American Ms. Robinson. This song was categorized as disco/r & b. Has some African-Latin rhythms in background.
Nothing that you write changes the fact that the dancers stink. And Miss Robinson is half white. Doesn't matter what race the Jacksons were, the song has a Latino sound to it and the black dancers just aren't cutting it. One of my favorites is Robinson's appearance on 'Midnight Special' when she let it all out and just took the show over. This performance is for Jerry's telethon and he chose the wrong dancers- they're off doing one thing while Vicki Sue is carrying the show. She's superb while the dancers shouldn't be there. The Mechanical Man? To 'Turn the beat around'? Not even close
@@garyranieri3856 It was the dawn of free style dancing.That's what Soul Train was all about doing your own thing.No regimentation.
They stink. Maybe dancing this way to other music styles might be appropriate but not this song
Umm Vicki was half black, half white. No Latin anywhere. Her last name is Robinson for crying out loud. Research before u make dumb ass comments.
