Back in the 80's I used to be a robotic dancer and toured with a show. We went through the UK and abroad. I headlined the show and my theme music was Blue Monday by New Order. It warms the heart to see these dancers still performing this style of dance. Some of them are truly incredible and have taken it to new heights! I'm still very fit for my age and this makes me want to perform again. Some old robots can still dance.
Well, IF you decide to get back into it...Please do AND make a video sir!! I'm sure I'm not the only one commenting here that would love to see some old school dance! I grew up in the 80's and miss that stuff!
I remember when both styles of dance came out, both are still pretty cool after all these years. Hats off to all the break dancers out there, absolutely amazing!
This is a SICK SICK SICK SICK compilation. I'm 51 and I tried break dancing like most kids in the early 80s. This touches me way down deep. Who ever mixed these dance segments to safety dance is BOSS!!!!

All Praise to these VERY TALENTED individuals. I'm 61 now. There was a time in my life I could have made some of these moves. Incredible!
I grew up as a street dancer in the 80's. Now, I am old and not so much of a dancer. I still remember and am happy to se the younger generations not only taking on the style, but improving and taking to another level. Amazing.
I'm old enough to have been around for the birth of both of these and I just realized that locking and popping or "doing the robot", as they said back in the day, is what evolved into dubstep. I have a lot of respect for dancers who can dubstep, I mean the absolute muscle strength it takes geesh 😯
These kids are amazing! I wish I could’ve done some of these moves back in the day. Holy shit the strength it took just to do the windmill was brutal. But to do that and then go into a one arm handstand?
When break dancing came out in the 1980’s I was in my 30’s so I really didn’t give it a lot of notice back then. This video shows some amazing athletes preforming to music. It’s the best break dancing I’ve ever seen. Those with the odd body moves are every bit as talented as those spinning and doing summersaults. I can’t get over just how fast some of them were.
The fact that you recognize now is a compliment to all who do this type of dance. I was lucky I was in junior high when breaking first started and we as kids walked around with a boom box and card board so we can battle other kids in the city, it kept us out of trouble and it was fun ! Im 51 now and I'm amazed how it evolved.
I’ve always enjoyed robotic dancing but from its inception, I’ve always loved the athleticism and danger element in break dancing to near obsession. I grew up in the 80s got into it shortly after it began. It was banned in my high school because during the lunch break a couple guys and I would grab sides of cardboard boxes and start showing off our dance moves behind the school’s cafeteria till the day one of the guys popped his shoulder while performing a spin. I spent the 90s backup dancing for recording artists and danced on a couple televised dance shows and in clubs throughout LA. Good times. Great memories. It’s awesome to see these kids doing their thing and putting their own stamp on it.
I'm old and gray now (79) but I love to see people who have the ability to dance to various types of music and show thier expression and love of the music plus their skill in interpreting how the music moves them. for Over many years I have seen people in many countries astound us with how they bring movement into the sound of various types of music. Thank you for videoing it for all to enjoy.
Hell yes I’m 46 and I miss the real Mtv days when they actually played music videos. First song to air was Video Killed the Radio Star by the Bugles on August 1st 1981 🤘😎🤘
Sensacional! Alternância de dois estilos de dança ao som de outro estilo musical em que todos eles pautaram a nossa geração dos anos 80. Simplesmente maravilhoso. As gerações atuais JAMAIS saberão o que foi viver esses dias... Recordar é viver!!!
I too still remember seeing it in the early 80s, and just loving it. The only thing I could ever do was the caterpillar. Back then I didn't know the difference between robot and break dancing. But I'm still thrilled to see it. These young people take it to another level. My Favorite are the robots, but the break dancers Blow my mind, how Incredibly athletic and powerful they are.
Rocking it. Dropping it. Popping it. Locking it. Ain't no stoppin it. Out of the atmosphere.... Awesome collaboration.... hats off to all . Up rocking. Or top rocking. And ground work. Stay in shape and you can dance forever
I can't dance a lick but I absolutely enjoy watching these talented, dedicated performers. All dance is a feast for the eyes and soul. I shouldn't be, but I am, so jealous! Well done!
I remember this tune!!! I have to say these kids have taken BREAK DANCING to a whole other level. I mean holy shit. We did the windmill, head spin, the robot the worm etc, all on cardboard or the school floor back in 84. These kids are awesome to watch! I wish I could hold a handstand after I was finished wind Milling…..IMPRESSIVE!
Eu sou das antigas mas adoro assistir estás danças , se é robot ,break ou qualquer outra , gosto muito ,todos os participantes são incríveis PARABÉNS a todos
Amazing dancing and of course this song. When I first heard it, Z100 was only a brand new name in the radio station industry. Everyone was saying that they play the best dance music at the time and it was this tune that got me to listen to them. Of course the MTV and the music videos. Wow, love this track and the break dance video that you paired up with it. Beautiful.
It amazes me what these guys can do ,I remember when breakdancing was fresh many years ago, but the new b boys and girls take there moves to the next level I'm 57 years old and I almost broke my hip just watching this . Awesome video 🔥🔥🔥👍
Old skool breakdancing was done in the streets and alleys. Not in America got talent. Or indoors....gyms. Kids now days dont know from a whole in a ground what breakdancing is all about.
@@dogsoldier-yh3qp true however we all evolve as ppl and can't hate on that if that made sense. I am 52 I'm from the old school but am amazed at some of the " kids" and their moves these days
The Milk 🤣🤣🤣😂 I love your sense of humour, watching these amazing dancers now feels "painful" for me. And I agree with you totally. I'm 65 and was a lead dancer in my youth. I would need reconstruction after attempting anything like this now 😂🤣
This is a great song..The 1980s will never be the same again..There was something different and melody about songs that separated them from today .. I am not going to bash music from today because there is still some great songs out there, however the ecclectic style aif music and colorful fashion from the 1980s left it's legacy.
What impresses me the most about the Robotic style is that they do their crazy moves without momentum behind them. Break dance of course is crazy athletic and powerful, but making it look like your legs run on servos when you power up from a prone position on the floor to standing in a smooth motion, that is some next level strength and control.
Loved “Breaking “ and The Rock Steady Crew etc were amazing But I don’t think anyone even thought about doing some of these moves! Let alone actually preforming them Breaking should definitely be an Olympic sport !!! Who agrees?
Believe this or not bro...most of these in this video...are not human. No real human being can possibly flex their bone structure and their body muscles so complex and at such rapid speed as displayed here. You may or may not believe that though but that's okay.
I only discovered this song in the last 10 days - while playing dancing videos - and I absolutely love it! Not usually my type of music but I have been playing it frequently since. The dancing in this video is fantastic too. Such talent!
It is amazing what the body can do! Totally unreal some of this stuff, never dreamed I would ever see these amazing moves! Back in the day, “awesome!”❤
I enjoyed watching this video thinking just how much I would have loved to have so much talent as they had, heck even a tenth found/ would have made me feel alive beyond my wildest dreams. Thanks for showing us this compilation,
Why the fuck do you want to associate new wave or even synth pop with breakdance? That is clearly somebody who posts this only to get lots of views...i hope no other new waver is viewing this post...

I am thinking of doing that....it would be good to try at least......keep a look out. Thank you for commenting.
We were there at the beginning my friend.....magic times and thank you for commenting.

Dubstep is not that old as you think.
It's more along the lines of 2010's.
And I would not consider it any kind of "music". It's just noise.
😮😊

They already have the recognition.
@@gogoyubari366 Exactly! Was kinda strange to say otherwise.
Does anyone know what era my picture is from, id like to say 80's may the 80's be with us

We can dance like that in our mind, those kids need to enjoy, the body won't let them do it later.

That was a bloody good song and it fit any genre of music and had a groovy beat to dance to. Man I miss the eighties

I keep watching this video over, and over, and over again and I enjoy it more every time. Amazing display of raw talent.
I've never been one to be into break dancing or Robot dancing but I enjoy watching it . I envy the ones that can do this . It's pretty amazing.

LOL. Forgot about the caterpillar. Always wanted to breakdance, but figured I wasn't coordinated enough. A buddy of mine was good at it
Thanks to you!
once in a while, some completely off the charts videos are recommended. amazing athletes and moves !!!
Rocking it. Dropping it. Popping it. Locking it. Ain't no stoppin it. Out of the atmosphere....
Awesome collaboration.... hats off to all
. Up rocking. Or top rocking.
And ground work. Stay in shape and you can dance forever

The 80"s will live forever!
That’s what they said about the 1880’s
AMEN or LIKEWISE!
I've been seeing this stuff since day it began and never get tired of it. It amazes me to see it stand the test of time and continue to flourish.
I really needed this. It's just positive energy & loving the people who do it.
RAW tallent, Handsdown!!! How much i miss the 80s.
I remember this tune!!! I have to say these kids have taken BREAK DANCING to a whole other level. I mean holy shit. We did the windmill, head spin, the robot the worm etc, all on cardboard or the school floor back in 84.

Amazing wouldn't even begin to describe the talent in these people.
The 80th....the best time in my live! I feel so young when I hear it today!
Wow just wow just saw this and absolutely loved it. As a product of the 80's it brought back so many great mems, thanks!

Yup, thats true hahaha
Has it been 40 years? That original video was for shit.

Lived in the 80's i love how they redid this song
Nice. Lke comparing BMX freestyling with Skateboarding, which actually became really popular after this in the 80s.
That's some incredible dancing. I couldn't look away from this video.
It takes so much skill to be able to move like that. They are all so talented.
Talented moves but not real dancing.
I absolutely 100% love it, I'd love to watch more of it, what wonderful works of art.
Thanks! I'm totally uncoordinated so I appreciate what these folks can do.
