@Battlefoxxx Don't knock commercials. Staple of the market-driven society, and an art form unto themselves. This is just one of many examples; do a YouTube search for "crocker bank wedding" to see a commercial that spawned a huge pop classic back in the 1970s.
after the millionth time watching the same video i realized that this is fake... took a while thanks to that kid down there for pointing it out haha lolz lawl rofl vvvv
holy shit its been awhile i commented and watched this from 2007 and its still here. i will always remember this video as legend of all car commercial for bboying and popping with ciphers
@wriddler0:13 - 0:14 the bottom half of his face vanishes/fades out (bad masking) and at 0:19, noticable flickering around his neck, with some jitter.
@Owerlidude2367 that's like 28.3998173 years worth of singing in the rain... you should seriously check out 'let's call the whole thing off' or maybe 'june is bustin out all over'.

LOL im not allowed to watch swagga in the rain in GERMANY! weird since its taken from a commercial for german cars innit? :P or did he maybe put something else in the vid thats not allowed here?
@mktriton the set was made to "match" the films set. That set from the old MGM lot is long gone. The face was done with CGI the dancers wore green masks. The used three dancers to make this film though it was mostly in David Elsewheres stye except for the hand spins and flips. VW did another commercial like this one recently using the moses supposes dance from The Gene Kelly Show when he and Donnald O'Connor sat down and did some taps
*sighn* dumb ppl here. They recreated the scene an ,ade dancers dance the streat. Than they edited the face of gene on the head of the dancers. Look at his neck at 0:39 it dissapears a little in his collar.
This ad is definitely not edited from the movie "Singing in the rain" itself - as the background is not the same: he's giving his umbrella to a guy at the beginning [as it would disturb him in waving his hands], note [and compare to original] at 00:08 the figures and clothes in the windows of the shop, also 00:25 there's no pot with plant in front of the door he's passing by... and a plenty of other changes they made simply to make it only slightly different from the original movie q;)
Thing is, I bet Gene was totally capable of doing all those moves himself, if that style had been around in the 40's - 50's. That man is a remarkable dancer.
@TaiFajzon 23 people in the world no longer exist to me!! if you hate music dancing and all things good thats still not an excuse this movie should still get a like.
The neck is messed up in the first 5 seconds of the dance but otherwise this is Amazing, also funny how at the end he does the flip thingy and his hat stays on XD
Have a look at our 'Singing and dancing in the rain' by 'Hennesea' song to original vid.
