[Kell1295]

Best dance scene ever. Beats out Travolta (sorry) in SNF. <3

[DCAUFan]

the entire film is now uploaded on my channel

[jazzysushi]

The name of the song at the beginning is by Machine-"There But for the Grace of God Go I"

[Drake1778]

What is the song that opens this clip, the one before the Marvin Gaye piece...can anyone help plz. I have been trying to find out for awhile.

[thebestneverrest1985]

The summer a killer was on the loose, and the country was swept by a heatwave, and the summer America lost it's only King!

[knightklown]

John Leguizamo is the man! Great actor

[Psychoholic80]

It's still a terrific movie though. Despite the technical errors.

[dubuffet69]

this song came out much later in 1979. A technical error.

[Beelzeboogie]

Actually I heard Spike Lee say that he knew that some of the music it was out of place given the time but he just really wanted this song for this scene so he made an editorial choice.

[dinkhead1]

@Beelzeboogie def...spike ain't no dummy

[TONINICHELLE3]

DOPE !!!!!

[060777pepper]

this is my favorite scene of this movie!!

[silverrhawk]

A great 70's movie to end the 90's in August 1999.

Followedby Y2K, NOT!

[QuickPic2]

The singer of Machine sounds like John Leguizamo.

[VinzZissou78]

First song is Machine's "There but for the grace of god".

:)

[scmaster66]

Great scene. The way she dances....uff!The song? (The second one): Marvin Gaye.Got to give it up.

[frank02111]

This movie was so cool. I was 15 when that nut ran around shooting couples. They looked at every senerio under the sun execept one I jusrt found how could they miss it. The Rolling Stones came out with Goats Head Suoup the summer before . Listen to Heartbreaker.Mick sings,Heartbreaker with your 44 you killing lovers in the park"

[Donkwoon]

I'm a little younger than you but you know it's sad that the kids who see this today have a hard time conceptualizing just what a big deal Son of Sam was to everyone all around the us.

[ortizdom62]

the group is called machine ,i think its called "there but for the grace of god" it was one of the biggest disco hits of 1979

[ortizdom62]

i ment the first song

[ortizdom62]

this song didnt come out until 1979 ,son of sam got cought in 1977 ,little mistake here

[billyboy630]

good catch, do you know the name of the song?

[BettinaBalser]

I remember seeing this in the theater with my husband. When Mira is wearing that red knockout dress and is dancing so sexy, my husband's eyes just about popped out of his head ;-)

[4818632]

She is really seducing him. She dances great. He looks cool too and is also a good dancer.

[silverrhawk]

So did mine.lol!

[sagittariusrising74]

The soundtrack is bangin! This is when NYC was NYC - you went out with your man or your chick Dancing...not lookin for nobody. and if you didnt feel like goin out, you moved the livin room furniture and "got down" - Lol...i was a shorty back then, but my parents were living this and i remember.

[thegirl44]

This scene makes me, almost, sorry that I ignored the disco craze. I was working Upstairs at Max's '77-'79 to help pay for school and considered myself to be so above the current trends, completely oblivious to the fact that I was following one of the biggest trends, myself.

Oh the folly of youth, my friend :).

[mano8er]

I knew Mira Sorvino was hot..but she was BLAZIN" in "son of sam". That red dress, the moves. Can't EVEN get these girls nowaday to dance half that sexy!!

[m2mkalel]

kae derrell thanks a lot for the inf. about the song!! I've been looking for it years ago...! thank you!

[m2mkalel]

can anybody tell me what's the name of the song in the 2nd. scene..? please!!

[kaeDerrell]

The song is "Got to give it up" by The great Marvin Gaye.

[scarface115]

i love that first scene. it shows the talent we once had in dancing. its a lot less complicated today lol.

[mzraechris]

I love these scenes...very sexy..

[Angelmickey32]

mira is so pretty! I'm gonna get my haircu like hers

[bunnygirl210281]

LOVE SOUND TRACKS

[mitsubishidiamante]

these 2 should be on Dancing with the Stars

[richiebear1969]

Marvin..you are missed...SOMEBODY'S WAAAAAAAATCHIN!

[august251976]

noel - the dancing scene in Billy Elliot also kicks ass haha.

On a serious note, this scene is just genius.

[noelfr9]

One of the best dance scenes ever, the one filmed to By The Grace of God. Only the breakdance scene from Flashdance comes close.

[richiebear1969]

Napoleon Dynamite? lol

[okonkolo]

That first dance scene for me is the best film depiction ever of the buzz and excitement of dancing with a sexy woman amidst loud music and lights. I wish the clip was clearer because it is visually stunning. Spike absolutely hit that out of the ballpark.

[Loshpot]

I hear you brother!

[TastyYumYums]

this movie gave me a huuuuge crush for mira sorvino

[QuickPic2]

I don't know if he did but the singer in the first disco song sounds like the dancer John Leguizamo. Great songs.

[illsleepwhenimdead17]

Did Berkowitz like disco?

[justlooking50010]

@illsleepwhenimdead17 Fuck no! He hated dancing girls.

[Beowulf117]

this movie was so diiirty lol love it. second song is so sexy. Marvin Gaye ownz.

[kmaguder]

Vinny was breakin it down!

[biminibleu]

this scene set the tone for the whole film, ... by the grace of God ... no blacks, no jews or no gays,

[frytechnician]

directed by spike lee.

[august251976]

on another note, id seriously love to shag her haha

[august251976]

My favourite film scene of all time, Spike Lee, I salute you

[CrazyRussianLady]

thanx for the video i=) love it

[sunlion55]

that the best I've seen of that young lady. She is a hit

[hullthebull]

She could back me into a corner ANYTIME

[orangeoctober23]

I'd like to spread her pussy lips open and smell her hole...then clean it for her with my tongue.

[XtremeSlayer]

Someone needs to post the scene where they played that Roy Ayers song 'Running Away'. I love this moive

[baldys86]

wot is the song playing wjhere they are both shagging in that club its fast paced?

[handy4040]

the group is Machine and song title is "But for the grace of God".

[Sambucacat]

Which night club scene? The one where a photo grapher mistakes Vinnie and Dinnia as actors, and gets them into the Plato's Retreat?

That's Everybody Dance by Chic.

[smbrox]

yeah, i love this movie. Mira is hot as hell.she kindof looks out of place dancing with that little toad leguizamo.

[loveyoutodeathbut]

I need to see this movie again, I forgot how good it was. Thanks for the reminder, repunzell.

[imaStonesGirl]

Yes the second song is so so good i love it!! Marvin is da best

[imaStonesGirl]

The second song is by All Green but i don`t know the name of it, I Like it though!!!

[XtremeSlayer]

No, it's Marvin Gaye. 'Got To Give It up'

Learn your soul classics hun. lol/jk

[imaStonesGirl]

OMG That is who i meant lol Marvin Gaye I Just didn`t know the name of the song but i do know the difference between All and Marvin(sorry bout that)

[BadGirLOfRockNRoLL]

I Love that second song

[BadGirLOfRockNRoLL]

I watch that movie every time it comes on cause i love the sound track and it`s a good movie too

[weyvalleysucks]

john leguizamo is a SEX GOD!!!

why cant i find any decent love scene with him in it

im just like DROOL

[moltisanti76]

2:19 is THE move!

[thegirl44]

The only thing missing was the collar flip before he started sliding.

[etherealrhythm]

Ha! Right on!! I heard my girlfriend playing that tune from across the house and all I could think of was John Leguizamo pulling that move :)! It's so cool I found myself having to look it up on here...

[jameskennedy80]

Great scenes, great film

[kenchesney]

John L was a genius in this video, I loved the movie because I remember this stuff, I grew up in The Bronx!!! My friends and I were so scared, it was portrayed brilliantly!

[BulletsBasketballDC]

No blacks, No Jews and No Gays.

[funkstagazza]

[guaap34]

Most people that consider Spike Lee bigoted never mention this movie.

[coreydb2]

[billideliaa]

[vella1974]

There But For The Grace Of God Go I - Machine

[sazukamambo]

[jlarsonav]

[cchavisn]

JOHN LEGUIZAMO IS THE SEXIEST!

[wolvesboy66]

[intotheseayouandme]

I love Mira's red dress!

[LauraLinger]

Amazing scenes from one of the best movies ever made. Thank you so much for posting this. How Leguizamo was overlooked for a Best Actor Oscar is just living proof of what a sham the "Academy" is.

[bigbill1991]

Man the 70's look. Summer of 77 would have been 5 going on 6.

[borskyviolin]

Summer of Sam is one of the most perfect movies ever. Good scenes.
