Dancing Man and Santigold - Sasquatch Festival 2009

[mongoosetracter]

Got to admire the fact that I couldn't give a fuck what anyone else thinks. He's in his own world and it's beautiful <3

[tysgirl13]

He's awesome...go guy...enjoy yourself. This video made me smile!!

[zentopia7]

alcohol

[DanceSuriya]

it only takes 1 person to make a difference! and watching him dance should inspire others to break free of the mould. Why think outside of the box when you can dance outside of it! :oD

[ralba1998]

This dude rocks - beats to his own drum and shows others it's cool to be different!

[ImHighRiotNow420]

awesome acoustics at that venue . . .

[earp123456]

I can't figure out what's worse. The Elaine Benes dance moves, or horrendously shitty music.

You decide.

[Aircraftmechanical]

Tell me the names of those Songs! PLEASE ANYONE!

[rfranquinho]

@Aircraftmechanical first one: 'Santigold - L.E.S. Artistes'

for the second one, just search for Santigold till you find wich one it is! :)

[Aircraftmechanical]

@rfranquinho Thanksalotdude!^^

[SirGrimbo]

Id love to give the amount of fuck this guy gives...

[spliff73]

I love that dude.

[jasgasm11]

lol I love how he smacked that guys ass at 5:05

[NoFear3149]

@jasgasm11 he smacked his butt in slow motion that was funny :)

[yenrab921]

This guy single handedly started a several hundred man dance party, what have you done lately......?

[kn0wr3zz]

This is my new friend Collin! We are had a blast at Burning Man this year!

[4sidedface]

If you look at the earth from outerspace, you will realize that we are small. Don't be an asshole and think the universe respects your opinion, including mine! Enjoy your life and dance.

[knowAnonymity]

everyone should be so lucky/fortunate to have that great a time, to be feeling that good... rock on!

[marvelousmelisa]

I want this guy to dance forever, he's so carefree :)

[digby72]

There is no prize at the end of a mediocre life.

[djurmaine]

People like that make me cry of joy. They enjoy life and don't lock themselves up in this "stereotype" prison we live in right now. Justin Bieber, eat your heart out.

[GlowinGeometries]

when they laugh, they're laughing at their own imprisoned souls.

[IZuWIZme]

the legend started his own fucking mosh <3

[mavers21]

man people who are free and dance like that make me SO happy at festivals. quit the hate people.

[Bugaboos4u]

I'm not understanding all the negative replys to this video. Isn't that what people do when the music is good?!!! I know of many times I have been at parties or get-togethers and the band is at the moment where they're all playin' right in the pocket, and when that happens, sometimes the feet just gotta move. You get the shiver that runs to your core and ya can't help it.....ya gotta dance. I find it kinda odd that people think dancing is weird or odd. Especially when it's at a "music festival"

[Blahblyblah]

HE IS AS HIGH AS A KITE!!! I LIKE IT

[RicherkidDenu]

this guy is definitely on some serious drugs haha

[skydancr1]

best vid on utube !! Was that in the south west? looks like it. Love this

[kokoringdot360]

GO GUY!!! One guy dancing like that and people make fun of him, u should see some of the music festivals i have been to, everyone dances, and its ok!

[dbrandao07]

OMG I love him, I can only feel PURE JOY watching his energy dance!!! so honest and so free, who cares what they think, life is to short not to dance!!!!we have a lot to learn from this video!!!

[Firstrialer]

no shame 

[eanachdubh1]

what song is at the start???

[re777us]

@eanachdubh1 Santigold - LES Artistes

[eanachdubh1]

what song is at the start???

[IAmM450n]

Quick update:

I missed 2010, but this year our friend inspired a dance party at the same location as in this video.

While most likely not spontaneous, the dance party this year was an obvious tribute.

This year's dance party tribute will probably make it to YouTube, but there is a picture and brief blurb on NPR's site: npr(dot)org(slash)series(slash­)136238533(slash)live-from-sas­quatch-music-festival

Good job dancing man! Is it safe to say you are now a living legend?

[klschilling]

this dude is awesome

[fireonice75]

i didnt know there was a prequel.

[Mr420Flo]

@101390 Thank you well said

[101390]

Man this guy has so many haters. He likes the music, so he's dancing. I had no idea our society was so absorbed with people being "weird" that something as simple as that can't be accepted. All of you are so brain-washed with trying to fit in & not disrupt the flow. Grow up, life only comes around once. It's too short not to dance.

[IAmM450n]

@101390 Besides the "he's on drugs" comments (which it's fair to say he probably was), I'm pleased to report that the overwhelming majority of comments have been in praise of him.

Having said that, the vast majority of "hater" comments have come from dance nazis hating on people who aren't always dancing.

;)

[TheTvrulesthenation]

IAmM450n

Name of the tune? I can't quite hear lyrics sounds lethal though & yeah if you ask me he's off his head on E, or just such a humorous person that he doesn't give a shite how he dances :P

[MultiLisab]

i love this man xx

[TheAmHera]

lol, how many taped this guy? :)

[dajananas]

love love love this guy!!!

[ehhhhhhhhhh]

[whitelines18]

what i wanna know is where the hell are all his buddies are during this...wonder if they believed him when he told them his story!

[TheBlanco951]

Some o he comments said that he's on acid. I think differently it's either some really good weed or he might be on E.

[orrinsjuice1]

[MartinHDJ]

[TheArborTree]

[Nitr0Sloth]

This guy is definently having a good time, enjoying himself and doesen't give a shit about what other people might think... I salute you sir

[IntoxOfficial]

@Nitr0Sloth i'm sure it was the drugs not him :)

[rynxx]

@IntoxOfficial are you sure hes not just taking it as a joke? and that he might not even like the song to start with?

[IntoxOfficial]

@rynxx i don't think any person in their own right sober minds would do that :)

[rynxx]

@IntoxOfficial you are very boring than what your telling me from that is that you dont know how to have fun like i do

[BSpaceMusic]

@IntoxOfficial im sure i would, music = dance, good music = go wild..

[smokkee001]

This is a wonderful homage to the dancing Man (Colin). I watched the video months ago and the song popped into my head and I thought about the dancing guy.

Your moves will be imitated all over the world.

Well done that man.

[tarnrosa]

Who don't want to have him as a friend? A man that don't give a damn what other people are thinking.
