Oh man, I had SMILE FROM EAR TO EAR, What good times and the memories, The BEST DAYS! 70s -80s!

[@nellamessina3689]

I love The Village People forever!💓💓💓💓💓💓💓

[@Trig242]

Me and my friend consistently imitate The Gute in the scene when he is "composing" music in his home studio

[@michaellowe5980]

Ray simpson, fantastic voice. Genuine talent right there.

[@gionathan3760]

Fantastic moment so '80

[@jacobh7693]

Great vibes!

[@debkerr2393]

I wonder why Glenn Hughes wasn't in this clip? Glenn Hughes, the original biker was the sexiest man there ever was, it was so sad when I heard he passed away from lung cancer in 2001

[@tomflorio7363]

At this point in the "story" of the movie, they had yet to recruit Hughes or the Army dude for the group

[@annaritaranalli1791]

What a shame indeed ...he was one sexiest after victor willis and ray simpson...what a pity he died young

[@pamelalawrence1704]

I loved the movie.they were very talented not to mention very hunky.

[@michaelloparco2173]

This awakened something in Bruce….

[@lilliehalumi8770]

He was such a wet noodle in this. And he was surprised he didn't get any offers after this. Was he really needed? They could have featured Alex in a solo. The others got to sing a little - and David had his own number.

[@supachaloopa3611]

But then The Kardashians put it right back to sleep....

[@thejupiter2574]

LOL Bruce looking very uptight and repressed.

[@booth2710]

I was beginning to enjoy that.

Nice Little Orphan Annie dress at 1:59, and a coincidence considering choreographer Arlene Phillips went from this to *Annie.*

[@booth2710]

Yes and the dancers in the Do The MilkShake number were the Hot Gossip troupe from the Kenny Everett Show

[@ticketyboo2456]

Watched this on release in the early eighties. There was no choice. Did enjoy the cheese factor at the time though. Music still Brill though. You can stick the pink windmill up where the sun don't shine though...

[@bijibadness]

now THIS movie _is_ a masterpiece. a masterpiece of weirdness, bafflement; a masterpiece of that fabled state that goes beyond cringe and comes right back around to being absolutely hilarious. it's like a movie made by rich aliens. it's like a musical version of _The Room_ . . . with a _way_ higher budget. I can't believe sound-minded businessmen and women paid for this. this movie was made, on purpose, to at least look, sound and feel like it does. and that is amazing. people with taste made this. has there ever been a calculation _this_ off? probably. but not many. a helpful way for people my age and younger who weren't around for this to look at this movie is to remember this: in 1980, _Once in a Lifetime_ by Talking Heads was released. Brian Scott became the new lead singer of AC/DC, and _Back in Black_ was released the same month this came out. New Order played their first gig in 1980. from the Village People singing a milk commercial in _Can't Stop the Music_ to Prince on his bike in _Purple Rain_ in just three years. blows my mind.

[@cubdukat]

I have a sneaking suspicion that this movie may have been yet another one of the reasons Casablanca Records and Filmworks went under. This movie is what you get when celluloid meets cocaine.

[@taergehtsiram]

haha. I enjoyed this movie.

[@fp5495]

Judging from the comments, nobody has a CLUE that the guy in the suit and tie is BRUCE JENNER (Katelyn Jenner) before he had ANY cosmetic surgery at all, and he was HOT as HELL!

[@friendlier]

I think you mean CAITLYN Jenner. And honey, that is a LOT more than cosmetic surgery.

[@oscara.2636]

Fun Fact: He / She turned down the role of Superman to be in this movie.

[@friendlier]

@@oscara.2636 It's pretty simple. Caitlyn Jenner has fully transitioned, so now the pronoun is 'she'.

[@oscara.2636]

@@friendlier OK, just so we're clear on this - the very important forum that is a Village People clip on KZbin - I used both pronouns not because of any misunderstanding that Bruce transitioned into Caitlyn and that I don't recognize her now as a woman but because at the time of the decision to turn down the role of Superman to star in legendarily dreadful musical "Can't Stop The Music", Caitlyn was then a man, so she would have gone by "he" at that point. I added he / she to accommodate the reader's viewpoint whether it was "Caitlyn, now a woman, turned down the role at that time" or "Bruce, then a man at the time of the decision, turned down the role".

[@hobi2240]

totally agree, she/he was so handsome as a guy

[@AccurateCrabLegs]

The Cowboy picks up the microphone and then, just a few seconds later, hands it to Steve Guttenberg. I have pondered this for many years and have found no adequate explanation.

[@snakejones3847]

It's just a fact that the Mic was laying on the floor, he picked it up and handed it to the Maestro! It's a Magic Moment!

Is that miss tessmacher from superman?

[@benriemersma8137]

Legend has it that Steve Gutenberg came to LA with $300 in his pocket. He tricked the studio guards into thinking he was Michael Eisner's (studio exec) son and set up shop in an abandoned office. He got roles by walking on to sets pretending like he owned the place or so the legend goes...

[@indiglo1971]

Well, they're both Jews, so they are related if you back far enough.

[@supachaloopa3611]

Well... I heard from his mother's plumber's ex-boyfriend's gardener that Stevie bent over a few times to make ends meet in those "early years". Or was the rumor that he was a yoga instructor?...

[@icequeen917]

But he isn't in it....unless you're making a joke about that women who has the same hair in this video...

[@tomflorio7363]

haha, hilarious! That Lulu gave me the creeps.

[@cubdukat]

Is that Victor Willis singing or Ray Simpson?

[@GarudaMan9]

Ray Simpson

[@TheColeConversation]

Victor Willis wrote a few of the songs in this movie, but he quit the band before they started production because he got angry they wouldn't allow his wife to star in this film, so Ray Simpson was the vocalist in the movie.

[@tomflorio7363]

The awful phrasing and shoe-horning of lyrics, good Lord 0:40 "play some good mus-IC" 0:48 "ev-RY-one have some fun" 1:31 "friends with whom I can share" and, lest we forget the well-placed pause @ 1:44: "magic's when I come . . . together with my friends". Well, I'm glad you finished that thought, officer! 😄

[@debkerr2393]

This video clip would of been better if Glenn Hughes (the biker) would of been in it. Glenn Hughes was the sexiest man in the world!, Besides the lead singer, Glenn Hughes was the only straight guy.

[@annaritaranalli1791]

As well likewise handsome and talented victor willis and ray simpson

[@jonathanwashington6083]

Jack could probably lead the band better if he got rid of the rabid weasel that was crawling in his pants....

[@mikeyjames8268]

my dog just turned gay as i played this. this song has power.

[@TheCarnivalguy]

The title says Steve Gutenberg can’t dance. That’s weird. I thought all gay guys could dance.

[@joshadcock1035]

They obviously cast Steve Guttenberg because he was pretty to look at. He has no rhythm at all in this clip.

[@thejupiter2574]

I tried to like it, I saw it twice and thought it was awful , even with the Village People in it and Jenner, cant act. ;)

[@LLOOYYYDD]

Ok I'll be the one to say it - This is by far one of the gayest films ever. I mean EVER

Watch Cruising with Al Pacino!

Thank goodness someone was brave enough to say it 🤣

[@RHGarciaApr85]

Worst movie I've ever seen.

[@giuseppeianniello1998]

RHGarciaApr85 There are interesting things about Can’t Stop The Music: 1. Before its release, there was an huge publicity campaign marketed as “The Movie Musical Event Of The 80s”. Even doing an 1 hour tv special starring huge names like Hugh Hefner and Cher, just to name a few. 2. The director Nancy Walker and leading actress Valerie Perrine didn’t like each other at all. To the point that the cinematographer had to step in to direct her scenes 3. During production, the lead singer of the Village People left the group and was replaced by Ray Simpson 4. At the time it was released in 1980, there was an anti-disco music movement going on. People at the time hated the genre, burning CDs, Radios banning from their stations, etc. 5. It has, as of March 25th 2020, a 7% on Rotten Tomatoes 6. It was one of the movies that partially inspired the award ceremony that celebrates awful cinema, the Golden Raspberry Awards, also known as the Razzies. It “won” the very 1st award for Worst Picture and Screenplay and was also nominated for more but it didn’t fare better: • Worst Actor for Bruce Jenner (now Caitlyn) - lost against Neil Diamond for The Jazz Singer • Worst Actress for Valerie Perrine - lost against Brooke Shields for The Blue Lagoon • Worst Supporting Actress for Marilyn Sokol - lost against Amy Irving for Honeysuckle Rose • Worst Director for Nancy Walker - lost against Robert Greenwald for Xanadu (the other movie musical that inspired the Razzies) • Worst Original Song for the titular track by Jacques Morali - lost against The Man With Bogart’s Face

Indeed , Steve Guttenberg is someone I like , but he definitely couldn't dance in this scene ; In my opinion his character was over enthusiastic , then again , this was and is a bad movie , many of the female characters were obnoxious .

[@greggi47]

Bruce Jenner was a boring noodge from the start, so it'as no wonder Caitlyn is about 8 times worse.

[@donbrown1284]

LOL...Steve Guttenberg dances like a marionette whose strings have gotten twisted up. What an annoying actor.
