Watch the near end of it; 2:06. This was probably done twice. You can see a break in the tape-film. They danced it twice and took the best and spliced it together.
A great, more civilized time to be alive - unless you were Black or gay or had long hair or were against the Viet Nam war or were a woman or were a sissy or were John Kennedy or were Robert Kennedy or were Martin Luther King or were a migrant farm worker.
Simple? OK, the people were pretty simple.
Safe? Yes, thanks to the drills we did in school to prepare us for nuclear attacks,
Innocent? The KKKers who threatened to burn a cross on our lawn because we had Black friends were not innocent.
@lumimac Yeah...today's pessimism, total lack of dignity, over-abundance of in-your-face sexuality and failure to take responibility for one's own actions is SO much better than the 60's innocence. JFK's murder in '63 started us down a precipice we've never recovered from. If a Hip Hop or Rap artist recorded their version of this classic today, I dare say it's new title would be something like Music to Race-Riot or Drive By Shoot By. What a sad world.
@petclark1 innocence is a good thing to have yes, but i think it's a very generalised comment to make that everything in the sixties was good and clean, and also that everything in the present day isn't. "Hiphop and rap artists" (which dont make up ALL of the musical world) are just writing truthfully about their (or other people's) experiences, its just freedom of expression rather than giving music a squeaky clean glossing (which i feel there is also plenty of today. disney anyone?) (:
Of all the dancers Bobby worked with, Cissy is by far the best and the most beautiful, God bless those two and everyone else involved with the show. We need more programs on television like this these days.
Great stuff! this was a Big Hit when we were kids, our folks did easy "twist" dancing to all the big band hits at our ginormous family parties...Lotsa good memories.
I loved this song on the Lawrence Welk Show as a kid...Had no idea what the song was called at the time! I just liked it because it was catchy...I esp. liked the violin part at about 1:07/1:08.
The orchastra music sounds like the Bob Crewe Generation.

Bobby is married to Myrons Floren's daughter. They have had several children together. So he must habe been in to girls at least a few times.
Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly were great dancers and masculine guys. Men dancing does not have to equal gay, but who really cares when it does.
