The only thing I can think about is that those clothes are totally in fashion again.

[agramsci]

Happy Mardi Gras!

[antmoorfield]

Thumbs up if Neil Gaiman brought you here?

[jsalowe]

Thumbs up if Neil's tweet brought you here!

[mjk4219]

Oh, Neil Gaiman just posted this. I guess he's writing the bit in Jack's Crocodile Bar.

[rosebuddy47]

cute as a bugs ear they are!!!!!!

[robshannon]

I love the song, but I could watch over and over just to see those great smiling faces. They are so cute.

[Hereismytwocents2011]

I listen to this to get ready for Mardi Gras.

[obiwan2112]

[bydeffinition]

[narcovice]

wow there so beautiful in there blouse and leather pants

[mintedllama]

Is that guy shuffling?

[johnrk556]

These black chicks could kick Beyonce's butt. They have talent. Not to mention the mutant Hudson. We were so lucky in the sixties!

[aliciasbanzon]

what tv show was that?

[sylviasillyfilly]

this is a mardi gras indian song. it's about spyboys, flags, and such. territorialism among the different tribes in new orleans. blacks who dress up as badass indians. a very old tradition. listen to the song indian red if you want more. also little liza jane.

[monique052001]

@sylviasillyfilly Um those blacks are of native heritage, by the way.

[DancingSpiderman]

The white kidz in the audience cannot clap on tempo to save their lives.

[monique052001]

@DancingSpiderman nor can they dance to save their lives, lol.

[ramonaloco]

Either you get it or you don't. If you don't........so sorry, no NOLA soul for you.

[mykulbee]

What year was this clip?

[LovexxLoudxMusic]

i thought it said my grandma told your grandma im gonna set your house on fire! when i was little i used to skip down the street singing that song no wonder people thought i was weird

[Sundogillusions]

@LovexxLoudxMusic LOL!

[taker3k]

@zenileon search this after youtube Hj6-irrsnsw

[zenileon]

What is this song referring to? I heard somewhere that they lyrics are supposed to be quite subversive..........

[Mr60srock]

@newaccountdebzbd i don't think they're embarrassed, they just can't seem to remember what they did in the studio and don't wanna screw up the lip-syncing. still badass, but almost equally as awkward

[MrB17FlyingFortress]

what music is that girl in the background dancing to?

[pigfootandbeer]

@MrB17FlyingFortress A sound only she can hear!

[SilverMoonLotus]

@pigfootandbeer ...LOL! :))

[Writeowl]

@pigfootandbeer There's always a try-hard in these things, isn't there? LOL

[pigfootandbeer]

@Writeowl Indeed!

[newaccountdebzbd]

This is epically badass and if I had a band I'd get this down so hard and fast. The D-Cups seem almost embarrassed by it. I'd romp this thing until the dancefloor was a mass a mass a mass of panting bodies.

[oliviantumba]

all the songs u hear came from the blacks, but the white people stole OUR music.

[artec0]

So great - but the dancers - WTF?! :o)

[UOENG270]

WOW! God Bless the Dixie Cups! Very Brave... Those of us who love music love this... Thank you.

[ramonaloco]

Love this!!!

[drpreatorius]

These people dance like they are on LSD!

[ramonaloco]

@drpreatorius If that's what you think then you are one sad mofo.

[Writeowl]

Brilliant!

[TechnoGirlXXL]

I love this song :D i love the 60´s

[ladyvee7110]

[robshannon]

@LikeItDeep You got that right.

[ThomasJohnTaylor]

@LikeItDeep I was a suitor in the day and recieved a multiple of Deliscious Evenings hanging at Tippatina's and Dancing The Night away.

[LikeItDeep]

@ThomasJohnTaylor I would have liked to be in your shoes then.

[Celery821]

[2sdInCommand]

They can really rock those sparkles. Love this song.

[MattieA65]

Looks like some "Star Trek" extras there in the background. Must have hit the nighclub after a day of filming in Burbank.

At around 1:30, what is that dance called they are doing? The two or three kids criss-crossing their legs. The girl to the left and boy in the front are really kickin' it.
