[@pamelaswatson2495]

Thank you for a wonderful salute to our black entertainers. These are the people who open doors for todays stars. They bowed down so we could stand up.

[@poohcatz60]

Yes

[@peterbaruxis2511]

I started a long comment but must've touched the wrong key and I think it didn't post, so- "yeah, what Pamela said."

[@danielwilson160]

Wow! I cannot get tired of a 52 year old song. A masterpiece that can go another 52 years.

[@RVing5150]

There's an extended version here on KZbin, played live at the Hague. It's wonderful!

[@realbounty5221]

Healing Funk Therapy! What a lesson! I can not get out of the grin!

[@NavarinoDC]

Those dancers were wild and fearless!

[@tomg212]

WOW!!!! This is amazing! Move On Up has been one of my favorite songs for almost 50 years. The sync with dancers was unbelievable! Thanks for putting it out there for this old white man to see. I'm blown away!

[@jerryj920]

Outstanding! My Throwback Thursdays sometimes I highlight 'hoofers,' I love my hoofers. The Nicholas Brothers, Sammy Davis Jr., Gregory Hines, Peg Leg Bates; The Four Step Brothers, with respect to other races and cultures; African Americans are not limited to 'minstrels' or Stephen Fetchet roles and talents...Feb.14th: Happy birthday Tap Dancer-Choreographer-Actor-Singer Gregory Oliver Hines (1946-2001) "Running Scared" "Tap" Will & Grace, "A Rage In Harlem"...thank you and God bless. RIP Entertainer. Curtis Mayfield; perhaps (one of the) most prolific / socially conscious songwriters-musicians of this or any generation. Thank you and God bless. RIP Genius. Thanks for the upload, olivar101. Blessings

[@imbees2]

Yessss. Curtis mayfield. Take a trip. Move on up. Curtis was a a man that projected the future but still gave hope and gave lessons to our youth. A man of means and character.

[@SuperBillybob53]

I’ll never forget these movie clips. As a young boy around 7 or 8 I can remember watching them and just amazed at the performances of all involved. I still watch today and so great that we have You Tube. I’m 70 now and never get tired of these incredible Black American Performers.

[@sigismundjumbo8065]

Excellent choice! Using Move On Up was perfect for the Nicholas Brothers and others. Two different generations. We are astounding.

[@niltoncampelo7882]
