A compilation of Carlton's dances from the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air TV series. btw the song is "It's Not Unusual" by Tom Jones. For all those who asked in the comments.
We're having a Carlton dance off with vShuffle. To get involved upload your Carlton dance to Vine with #DanceLikeCarlton. Also, this video has no dislikes!
Apart from the deceptive complexity of the dance, what makes it a perennial classic for me is how Alfonso Ribiero conveys Carlton's blissful abandon, the sheer ecstasy he feels when he dances.
Classic Tom Jones who was immortalized with the dance of the "Carlton Banks" on "Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" and "One Piece at Crazy" (What do we call this series here in Brazil), this song also danced the dances samba rock by infectious beat that will not let us quit!!
For some reason it kinda pisses me off when everyone keeps saying that this is the Fresh “Fortnite Dance”. It’ll always and only be “The Carlton Dance” imo.
*CARLTON:* It's not unusual To have dad be proud of me It's not unusual 'Cause I love conformity And when I see dad hangin' with Will instead of me It's not unusual to see me cry I wanna die *TOM JONES:* It's not unusual to mess up at any time And when I see you so down and out It's such a crime *CARLTON:* Did you ever wanna be loved by anyone And then you let them down I blew it yesterday My trust fund's gone away *TOM JONES:* My friend it happens all the time And life will never do *CARLTON:* What you want it to *TOM JONES:* Don't give yourself Such a hard time! *TOM JONES:* It's not unusual to feel bad at any time, It's not unusual to feel sad at any time *CARLTON:* But if I ever am in a jam at any time *TOM JONES:* It's not unusual to find that I am there for you, Whoa whoa oh whoa oh, Oh whoa oh whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
Alfonso Ribeiro had to act like a nerdy weirdo, but he was (is?) an hell of a dancer and he could sing very well. He was a magnificent sidekick of Willy Smith.
Alfonso Ribeiro, one of the greatest underestimated TV 's actor of the 90's in comedy's domain.... he hasn't had the career he deserved..... so sad..... he was so funny :-D
After first time of him dancing to .. R Sir Tom.. ya jus waited every episode for Carlton to get his freak on! Amazing how he looked like he was made of rubber... ya never tire of his dancin’.. ever!..this is bloody brilliant.. like the ..Carlton dance show🤣🤣🥰
As you probably know after last night, he said he was pigeonholed as a Carlton character, and he didn't get the chance to show there was more to him than Carlton.
TheEnergyMagic Alfonso literally played the Carlton character too well. A similar thing happened with Jaleel White as Steve Urkel. It is impossible to move past those roles because people don't separate the actor from the character in their minds.
I don't vote usually on TV progs but may have to break my ban for Carlton as I grew up with Fresh Prince and when he appeared on Graham Norton? I so danced along like a mad eejit!! :)

I just had a thought.....we all should be like carlton. To hell what ppl think about us, we should do our own thing and enjoy doing got to the fullest. That's what I get just by watching this man enjoy himself as he dance.
it's the joy on his face every time he dances that makes me smile.
Me too.
Same here
Yep
Exactly!
It makes you appreciate life fr
It's not just the dance, is the way he really enjoys it and is so contagious!!!
I remember watching this show with my grandpa when I was younger:)
He might look like a complete idiot when he's dancing, but no one can deny that he's having the time of his life.
hummmm muit bom adorava esse seriado...
If you ever need to smile just watch this video and it's guaranteed to put a big old smile right on your face!!!! :-)
Haha I still think this is 100x better then the dougie.
@TheDevilsMessenger4 He joined the new group of Ghostbusters in the 90s. Dunno what became of him after that.
Damn Alfonso Ribeiro, ROFLMFAO.
Thx Will for slapping him.
You could make a whole new show just about Carlton
I love The Fresh Prince,
But I have to say, Alfonso AKA Carlton stole the show

lol nostalgia chick
1:03 which episode??? Reply fast!!!
I have a question ? What year is this series ???
Carlos Collazos This series started in 1990.
what episode was 5:52?
It seems like such a deceptively easy dance to do. But nobody can do it nearly as well as Alfonso.
That's so very true. But we now see what a great dancer Alfonso Ribero is. So, it's not so surprising that he does it so well and so uniquely.
What-If Machine I can do it just as good
He was a professional dancer before the TV show
That dance helped him win Dancing with the Stars
@@georgegarcia7008 I agree, Alfonso 'owns' 'the Carlton'...!
With so many angering and depressing things on the internet, the Carlton Dance is guaranteed to make you smile!
Lex Tan
It helped me though literal depression
No, I can't do it properly :(
So true, I smile every time!

Hey are you the author of "Act Of Will"?!
@@youjustgotburned3980 No, I'm not, but I appreciate what I'm assuming is a compliment!
He looks so happy dancing.
I´m sure, he always is happy while dancing, like me.
Yes and he make us happy too
How can you not smile while watching this?
Exactly!
Impossible
Like a Cheshire Cat!
Rest well uncle Phil.

Um maluco no a pedaço
A tradução correta seria "The Nutty on the the Block"
Colocou no google tradutor foi? One piece at crazy fica como "um pedaço no maluco"
I've decided whenever I'm sad I'm just going to watch this video. Love Carlton
I agree..
nathaly _ Carlton💗💗💗
Me too, this song is happy when i'm sad, carlton was right
😢😇
nathaly _ same
For some reason it kinda pisses me off when everyone keeps saying that this is the Fresh “Fortnite Dance”. It’ll always and only be “The Carlton Dance” imo.
That smile he has is just brilliant!
i cant count how many times i did this XD
There is only ONE "The Carlton" dance. And no one could do it better than Carlton. This still makes me smile.
*CARLTON:* It's not unusual To have dad be proud of me
It's not unusual 'Cause I love conformity
And when I see dad hangin' with Will instead of me
It's not unusual to see me cry
I wanna die
*TOM JONES:* It's not unusual to mess up at any time
And when I see you so down and out It's such a crime
*CARLTON:* Did you ever wanna be loved by anyone
And then you let them down
I blew it yesterday
My trust fund's gone away
*TOM JONES:* My friend it happens all the time
And life will never do
*CARLTON:* What you want it to
*TOM JONES:* Don't give yourself Such a hard time!
*TOM JONES:* It's not unusual to feel bad at any time,
It's not unusual to feel sad at any time
*CARLTON:* But if I ever am in a jam at any time
*TOM JONES:* It's not unusual to find that I am there for you,
Whoa whoa oh whoa oh,
Oh whoa oh whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
😄 I LOVE THAT EPISODE!
He's the boss, nothing else to say
No matter how bad one's day can get, there's always the Carlton Dance to bring a smile your face
it will never again be such a good series like this
its legendary
They keep on trying but the new comedy series’s dont even make me laugh
"The Carlton" makes me smile every time. Thank God for Alfonso Ribeiro!
After all these years, I STILL haven't see anyone come close to doing this dance like he does it!
lol my brother dose it a lot
Carlton is funny
This the happiest thing on UA-cam ..my mouth hurt from smiling
😄😆😄
I love this man .To me he was The Fresh Prince in every way.
They were all great on that show. Great cast!
I can't stop laughing at his face at 0:53
Same here! I can't help but think "Poor Carlton!" LOL
Me neither.
Alfonso Ribeiro had to act like a nerdy weirdo, but he was (is?) an hell of a dancer and he could sing very well.
He was a magnificent sidekick of Willy Smith.
Totally agree.
He has immortalized this dance. And it makes me, others and everyone HAPPY. We need more Carltons!
i love the way hes always so happy when he does it...hes got such a big grin on his face :D
He is absolutely awesome
So much energy and life from Alfonso Ribiero on Carlton Banks character. That is what makes it one of the best movie/tv shows character ever!
His dancing is so captivating you can forget what a great song: "It's Not Unusual" really is.
And how good a singer is Tom Jones by the way?
Very good. And Tom had other songs. Let's see Carlton dance to those.
Alfonso Ribeiro, one of the greatest underestimated TV 's actor of the 90's in comedy's domain.... he hasn't had the career he deserved..... so sad..... he was so funny :-D
I know I'm 7 years late, but he's back in business hosting AFV
his face when he dance as well just makes him so much funnier
Carlton is so underrated
I loved Carlton. He was my favourite. This never fails to make me laugh and feel good. Props and thanks for posting. Great editing too.
Lol, man where did he get this dance from. Its amazing
He looks so happy doing his dance. Gave me chills of joy watching him.
😄😆😄
Amazing motion. Carlton's style. An unforgettable character.
That awesome sweet compilation
all these years later, this still makes me smile :)
I never get tired of seeing him do the Carlton dance.
love love love it, no one does it like Carlton, doesnt matter how many times I watch it I still howl laughing !!!
This made my day.
After first time of him dancing to .. R Sir Tom.. ya jus waited every episode for Carlton to get his freak on! Amazing how he looked like he was made of rubber... ya never tire of his dancin’.. ever!..this is bloody brilliant.. like the ..Carlton dance show🤣🤣🥰
I can watch this on an endless loop.
this is so catching, I want to dance this now if only I could do it like him.
Carlton is so funny. sometimes i think he should’ve been the main character
Unfortunately the dance is even bigger than him it seems. I'm surprised his career didn't really take off since everyone loves him so much
agreed - hes amazingly talented but for some reason it just didnt work out...
As you probably know after last night, he said he was pigeonholed as a Carlton character, and he didn't get the chance to show there was more to him than Carlton.
TheEnergyMagic but he did the carlton dance on the show
TheEnergyMagic
Alfonso literally played the Carlton character too well. A similar thing happened with Jaleel White as Steve Urkel. It is impossible to move past those roles because people don't separate the actor from the character in their minds.
TheEnergyMagic But amazingly enough, Will Smith went on to be one of the biggest names in Hollywood.
I don't vote usually on TV progs but may have to break my ban for Carlton as I grew up with Fresh Prince and when he appeared on Graham Norton? I so danced along like a mad eejit!! :)
I swear that is the biggest smile I have ever seen.
Four for you carlton banks
You go carlton banks
Like if:
Steelers RB Le'Veon Bell does the "Carlton" dance from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air to celebrate his TD.
Brought you here
Its the joy on his face while dancing is what makes it funny . Love it
I love Carlton funny short great dancing guy!
youtube recommended this to me after 13 years... I'm not mad tho
I love his happy face when he dances :D
Happiest dance ever ! I smile just watching this. It sends me joy waves through my screen.
this guy can dance. he's a legend.
who also thinks of carlton and imagine him dancing everytime you hear this song?
Hahah IDK why, but this made me so happy.
Pure, unbridled joy!!!! I fully intend to do this dance at my son's wedding reception!!!!!!
00:31 - When the family appeared on the Oprah show, that had to be Carlton's funniest dance. The way he moved his hips! Haha.
really makes me happy whenever I see this.. I never get tired of watching this kooky dance by him.
Carlton fuiste mi motivación para saber que en esta vida todo es mejor con humor ...hagas lo que hagas que te salga del alma 🤗😘
The happiest dance ever =)
Best one was when he danced to Opera's show opening theme.
Oprah lol
İ agree
You can't watch this without smiling...too damn perfect.
this is too perfect
REPENT FOR THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS AT HAND TURN FROM SIN AND TURN TOWARDS RIGHTEOUSNESS THROUGH CHRIST JESUS
JESUS CHRIST IS COMING BACK SOON AND WE MUST BE READY FOR WHEN HE COMES BACK
Someone needs to put this video to the song because im happy by pharrell it fits perfect
This is my new favorite dance it had me dying
I just had a thought.....we all should be like carlton. To hell what ppl think about us, we should do our own thing and enjoy doing got to the fullest. That's what I get just by watching this man enjoy himself as he dance.
Nothing I can ever do in life will ever make me as happy as Carlton is when he's dancing.
I miss watching this show. It will never get old. I always watch reruns and I love them!!:)
I watch this video every night before I go to bed it makes me smile.It doesn’t mean that my hubby doesn’t make me smile.😊
I just love to watch him dance, there is so much joy just watching him.
A true legend, a true performer : Carlton Banks
I love Alfonso Ribeiro. He's super talented and I'd love to meet him.
This makes me so very very happy!
Can't get enough of this dance!
Were it not for Courtney Cox (and you can even include Eddie Murphy) there would be no Carlton Dance.
The man can dance !! Awesome !
his dance in the Oprah one was the best one :D
hes a fantastic dancer
Carlton um mito!!! Nunca morrerá nas dancinhas. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
the carlton dance is immortal...
Ask yourself: when's the last time you were as happy as Carlton when he's dancing?
Mijei de riii melhor seriado
say what you will but watching this makes me happy dance like no ones watching nailed it
