I'm a 54 y/o dad and this just gets me every time. Why is that? Why does my throat get tight and my eyes tear up and I just feel so much for everyone and everything. Is this not the answer, this video, to how we save ourselves as a civilization? Let's just do flash mobs and love each other. Please?

[@ChefKish]

I was one of the dancers, with my best friend and this is one of the best times of my life. Hope to experience this again. I love my city Chicago born and Raised !!! They told us it was a surprise for Oprah when they started casting for dancers. So her reaction was the Real Deal as well as the Black Eyed Peas

[@SuzanneRamirez-q7m]

What a PHENOMENAL SIGHT to see!! You and your dancer's rocked it out the park!!!

[@LeaderLink]

You rocked it for all of us. Makes me happy every time it comes up in my feed. Love Oprah’s thrilled reaction!

[@julieschultz6363]

Judging from the other videos, it looks like the choreographers set up rehearsal spots all over the city and taught each group individually and then came together. I had to do that once with my high school choir. We were just one of many choirs from schools all over our part of the state participating in a huge music festival. Each choir learned the same few songs and then we all came together. The effect was magical.

IT'S THE ENTIRE AUDIENCE was trained to do these steps. The logistics (and there's a making-of for this out the there too) of getting that many 1000's of people split up in smaller groups around the city to work out the steps and the timing is mind boggling. I suppose that if you were someone off the street way in the back you could just follow along.
