I think a big reason why it feels so groovy and infectious is because normally dances are done to more of the lyrics and music in general, while this choreographer specifically has the dancers hitting the drum patterns, and rhythms. So it's almost like their dancing pulls you into the background of the music but on such a deeper level.

The body control of these dancers is inspiring and remarkable. In the more technical portions, they make it look so effortless too. And the personalization of each dancer is just so beautiful and I think that’s what makes it so infectious. It’s almost like an invitation to be uniquely yourself and just dance. It even almost feels like they’re painting the environment with the movement of their bodies. A reminder that your existence in a space can change it entirely. One of the best pieces of art I’ve seen in a while.

Something i really loved is how the choreography itself is quite easy but they cast extremely skilled dancers to execute it. And as a dancer and choreographer myself I think that's a great way to improve how the movements mirror what's happening sonically. You give an advanced dancer a barebone structure and they will fill it out themselves. Now you also said it in the video but they are so harmonious and syncronized in the way they are doing that. That's probably the most impressive aspect to me.

What makes it for me is the intense athleticism, the way each move is completed through a full range of motion with precision and speed. That takes a tremendous amount fo strength, especially to make it look so effortless. It gives us a lot of interesting shapes and motions to look at, never complacent or simple. Even the slow gliding movements have many different motions in effect at the same time. No body part ever seems to be coasting while the focus is elsewhere. Even when they're jsut walking sideways, the shoulders, arms, hips and heads are all still doing something (is this what the commenters mean by texture? I'm not familiar with that word in dance context).
@pantasticlaire39665 ай бұрын
I understand texture as the little personal additions that a dancer can make. A lot of dancers can hit their marks and perform the choreo step by step, but all of the subtleties about how they actually perform that movement would be the texture. Part of what makes me love this music video is that when everyone is performing the same moves, you can look at each person doing a movement and notice that they are all slightly different in a very expressive way. It’s like the difference between a very dry monotone speaker and a really expressive speaker saying the same exact thing, but with different stresses, pauses, and intonations.

This was such a smart direction to go in. It’s retro but there is so much attention to detail when it comes to the set, lighting, costumes, and makeup/hair choices. It’s very, very 70s. Not just the aesthetics but the choreography and the simple fact that the dancers are the focus. Someone else here said one of the best decisions the choreographer made was to give advance dancers simple choreography to do. They have the training, the experience, and the musicality to fill in the blanks. So cool and so well done.
@stevecarter8810 Жыл бұрын
You say effortless, but they are fully developing and finishing every movement, all dance covers i've seen seem just to be marking it by comparison. Next the attitude they are giving is fresh. They are featured foreground, not backing dancers, but at the same time they are not missing to the camera like they are checking for our approval. Finally the sharp body movement- i get a sore back just thinking about those pops and the hip movement
@nataloves Жыл бұрын
Agreed, the muscle tension is visible from the start to finish, they're working hard. The fluidity comes from control, not just letting gravity do its thing. The male section with the chest pop is ridiculous, that's so much force to make it so sharp. Not just popping the chest forward but almost instantly bringing it back like they're pinching the air with it. What the hell. I don't even dance, I'm more of a bodybuilder and I'm sore just looking at this. Incredible.
