  • @chaoticjesus Billy wrote this song on a bet with a friend. He said he could write a hit song in under five minutes and his buddy bet him $100 dollars that he couldn't. Billy won the bet.

  • @stoepselization I know the feeling!

  • I remember one night my girlfriend and i got drunk and we started dancing to this song. Trying to do the limbo with a curtain rod held up. We both fell and we laughing so hard we couldnt get up! Before long, the whole trailer park was joining in on the fun! Great music to party with!

  • i like thi video a kind of reminding when i was with my older sister dancing like crazy to this song, thanks for the memories.

    Jack wasn't very quick.

    He stumbled on your birthday cake

    Corduroys.

  • quick grab a stick and some people i got a great idea

  • I am listening 2 this because I have to rewrite this song for science, called the "Limbic Rock"! I actually like this song, but I don't no how I am going to make it into a song about the Limbic System. Except I think it was pretty clever of my science teacher to think of something like that!

  • loved Chubby Checker in the 60's love him still!

  • 00:00 instant rep

  • Jack Be Nimble Jack Be Quick Jack Go UNDER 60s MIX

  • JACK BE LIMBO JACK BE QUICK JACK GO UNDER THE LIMBO STICK

  • I didn't swear. I think you should try and apply at UNI once more for a trained observing course. (Possibly Master's) I am not stereotyping. It is true! And for the record, I love Pink Floyd, Ray Charles, and AC/DC, but anything after 1999, for me, is terrible.

  • We used to do limbo with friends in the front yard when little kids! Oh it was fun, thankyou for posting this song : )

  • I was graduating from the eighth grade at Aliamanu Intermediate School in Hawaii back in 1964 and we celebrated in our classroom by playing the Limbo Rock over and over again! Thank you for bringing back such a wonderful memory of the best time of my life!

  • ¡¡ESPECTACULARRR!!

    

  • I like how it has such a gentle pleasant beat to it! Something you could so drink a margarita to!

  • limbo at the skating rink :)

  • a times not so long ago i listen't to this song on the 1. floor on my dads hotel with BIG speakers... its was pretty awsome...

  • Why am I even watching this?

  • Comment removed

  • Hairspray!!! (Original, not the remake)

  • If I were stuck in an elevator, this is the last song I would want playing on repeat. I would probably shoot myself before they could rescue me.

  • i love this

  • Katinka brought me here!

  • this reminds me of skating rink trips in summer camp

  • how to do limbo:

    1. spread your feet wide apart

    2.put your knees close together while lowering your body

    3.have fun!

    do it like this guy at 1:15

    watch?v=V6SkOmry6LY&feature=re­lated

  • bellissima

    

  • hey lets do the limbo

  • Let´s rock....

  • I can't do the Limbo :(

  • Hi just found this track on youtube. When I was in the second form at primary school we used to have a teacher who used to give us a music session every Friday and this was one of the tracks he used to play and we had the limbo bar and everything. I think that I got down to about eight inches then which was pretty incredible. Would never be able to do that now - a long time has gone by but hey the song is still great!!!!!!

  • the only reason i failed at limbo was cause the music stopped. i cant do it without the music. lol

  • how looooow can you gooooo?

  • loveeeeeee this ;))))))))) and love doing the limbo ;)) woo hoo what fun :)

  • @jgarcia981 6 now

  • taringa

  • Limbo the game reminded me of this song lol

  • thumbs up if after "Homer Limbo Dance" you got here!

  • Woolworths.

  • Bumped into a video starring David Hasselhoff befored finally finding this one. Terrible experience. :-)

  • classic :)

    

  • 7 people touched the limbo stick.

  • kermit?

  • A Top 5 hit for Chubby Checker in December 1962. Well, we prepare to say good-bye to 1962 and prepare for 1963. Checker had plenty of hits by this time. Could he be the breakout star as the 1960's progress? That would remain to be seen.

  • love it--played it for years with my first grade students

  • imagine being trapped and having to listen to this forever lol

  • @Screamer36432 do the limbo chubby said he never made a million dollars from doing the twist but he did from marketing porcelin elvis statues

  • @Screamer36432 We played this song in my 7th grade jazz band class... I just graduated this year and this song is STILL stuck in my head... -_-

  • @Screamer36432

    This is a great song. I wouldn't mind that.

    Now, having to listen to Eminem forever... THAT would be torturous.

  • @Nixcilak booooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooo! lol

  • @Nixcilak Eminem? seriously guy? why not use bieber or rihanna? fuck you guy!

  • @nfscarbone

    My point:

    People who listen to Eminem and all of these other rappers like Lil' Wayne are so dumb and uneducated that they have to swear in every sentence. I won this argument. Kthxbai.

  • @Nixcilak if you used Lil' Wayne it would be a perfectly correct statement but Eminem is a legit great rapper + you can't win an argument on the internet!

  • @Nixcilak I'm with you! ;)

  • @Nixcilak I detest those who feel the need to swear when something bad has not happened. I am not yet highly educated, but planning on at least a masters at uni in the next few years. This music right here is amazing and awesome. So is everything from Pink Floyd to Ray Charles to AC/DC. I also like a lot of newer rock, as well as a lot of metal (do not read as metalcore/screamo, I hate that).

    And I also like Eminem.

    You may want to stop stereotyping, it gets you a bad reputation these days.

  • @Nixcilak Eminem is good FUCK YOU!

  • @Nixcilak This record has handclapping on it you would be suprised how many record hits have handclapping

  • @Screamer36432 I'd like that. Lmao.

  • @Screamer36432 LOL

    

  • Comment removed

  • @Screamer36432

    lol this would b like my version of hell, cuz this song is ok the first 5 times :P

  • @Screamer36432

    the FBI use this song for psychological torture

  • @Screamer36432 you are funny... lol

  • Drunk or sober, lots of people had a LOT of fun with this song!

  • Reminds me of doing the Limbo with a curtain rod and a bunch of drunk idiots! What a riot!

  • I have no idea how many times I've heard this song, and it always gets me into the groove to play Limbo, even though I'm horrible at it.

  • I heard a Rumor that Lionel Richie covered this, But I don't think so.

  • I love this song! It really lifts your spirits! :~)

  • wonderfull

  • something...something...limbo-­something...

  • Love this song!!

  • I wonder what came first — the dance or the tune. I guess it was the tune.

    Eriquito

    peolple like you give the binladens of this shitty world a reason to do their pointless shit.

  • @paulieb70 Thanks for the witty repartee. Maybe when you actually grow a sack with a few hairs on it you'll see that REAL Americans celebrate when their enemies are defeated--and we do it with great music like THIS.

    Enjoy your self-satisfied little (VERY little) intellectual kiddie pool...until a radical Muslim terrorist blows it up, that is. :-D

  • @Aggedor1959 I think you are right on the button! And I'll be honored to hold the limbo as you dance! :)
