people needa stop talking about all these dance moves being stolen like it's the worst thing ever because i know almost half of you is already or been illegally "stealing" their music right now.
Wow. The video for Countdown by Beyonce is fun and all, but Beyonce did NOT do this amazing piece of work justice. At best it was a shallow parody. :)
what is it about this that creeps me out? its amazing choreography, but theres something about it and makes it seem like its from a horror or thriller movie
If people are inspired by something they say so. Bey said nothing till she got called out. she said she got inspiration from a musical when she did "single ladies" so why did she say nothing this time? her and her team wanted to claim this as her own. she gets so much praise for her routines/videos but 90% of her stuff is not her own!!! she don't even write her own music, she pays to be put down as a writer!!!
i believe that despite of all the complaining coming from that belgian choreographer she probably is quite happy beyonce ripped her idea. just iagine all the attention her work is gonna get now. beyonce still shoulda asked first, though but she is the queen and that is why we luv her^^
@derlebkuchenmann ATdK, that belgian choreographer, has issued a statement about Beyonce and Countdown. You can find it on rosas.be. Better read it first.
@xannakis i did now and have to say that ATdK seems to be quite confident with her self. obviously for a reason. i mean she has been known to a qualified audience for such a long time that for her it probably isn't as big of an issue to be copied but to not have been asked first strikes her as somewhat baffling since the legal consequences in such a case are rather obvious to overlook, especially for a team of professionals beyonce most likely surrounds herself with. they should meet and talk.
@Chachx92 you clearly dont understand the dance then... it's about the daily routine women go through, which is why it is repeated over and over. It's pretty simple to see that this dance has a clear meaning if you just use your brain
This is similar to Beyonce's video but she's pregnant for crying out loud, if she loses this baby because of stress imagine how infamous you'd be and how bad you'd feel, it's just a dance you've got recognition for it haven't you leave it at that..
uhh to the people who said Beyonce stole this and copied it all, did you not watch or read what it said about her "Countdown" video? it was "INSPIRED" not stolen. sure when Beyonce does puts something like this in her video its stealing but when Chris Brown does Michael Jackson moves, its okay. wtf? stop being so damn arrogant and enjoy the video.
I can definitely see now why Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker is upset over Beyonce. Countdown's 80's dance studio setting, the arm throwing, pushing the hair back, and wardrobe are all toeing the "copy-cat" line....yikes! Love this dance, but I'm so disappointed Beyonce didn't even mention her. I've been searching all over for the choreographer's name!
I kept hearing all this controversy about the countdown song and this dance i had to see it...I must say i ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT SO POWERFUL AND INSPIRING.
i love this dance its liek amazing but i don't understand it lol....but this is truly amazing i don't think icould ever pull off something so beautiful like that
POINT BLANK PERIOD BEYONCE ASS SHOULD HAVE ASKED HER CAN SHE USE IT. NOW IF SOMEONE STOLE BEYONCE'S SHIT AND DIDN'T ASK HER STUPID ASS STANS WOULD FLIP OUT. STUPID ASS PPL. I LOVE COUNTDOWN AND THE VIDEO BUT BEY STANS REALLY MAKE ME HATE THEM AND HER
I think Beyonce did a great job of honoring this classical piece and I think that everyone should realize that all artists copy each other at some point or another... And Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker should be honored that someone as successful and popular as Beyonce even considered taking points from her dance from 25 years ago that nobody in our time has seen anyway..If it wasnt for B, that dance would have been lost to us.... So... thank you, Beyonce :D
@sassy19892011 I think you are completely wrong by saying that Rosas Danst Rosas otherwise would be lost. Anyone who had seen this performance remembers it, and it is still being performed, here in Belgium, but also abroad. I personally think Beyonce did'nt honor the piece because she missed the whole idea of it.
But hey, that's the fine difference between art and pop-culture.
@sassy19892011 I personally don't think that Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker is interested in pop-culture and people like Beyonce 'honoring' her like this. They should have at least asked her if they could use this, which is an art work. And this piece isn't lost on anybody of our time. I studied her work in art class in high school, so most of the people I know, know her work. She was already well-known in Belgium and Europe before Beyonce decided to use her work. So, thank you Anne Teresa :).
beyonce countdown brung me here and i loved her video but ppl were like she was copying off someone else and i saw this... all i have to say is this video is just plain weird what the freak do they keep doin that for?
Very powerful and abstract...and to people hating on Beyonce she as in the chair for about 5 seconds at the end of her video obviously INSPIRED by this not being a copycat.
I'd like to thank Beyoncé for pointing towards this wonderful dance. I remember watching it years ago (might have been twenty odd years ago when it first came out). I thought it was so powerful. I've searched for it, "Women dancing sat down" "Women in an office dancing" etc etc, but nothing found it. Soon as I saw the Beyoncé thing I recognised it.
Maybe Beyonce just wanted to make this learn this and make this dance appear in her music video, just like the african steps she learned in Run the World Girls.
Loved this! Yes I'm a Beyonce fan! Yes all the talk surrounding her video brought me here! Now can we move on! This is a beautiful piece....I didn't even know who Keersmaeker was before Beyonce's video. Maybe things could have been done differently ok, but what's done is done and none of y'all are victims of it. No money list from you, it's not like u WEREN'T recognized so shut up! How many ppl didn't know this existed? Read the comments. Be happy Keersmaeker is getting some new followers. Peop
@bella50008 I couldnt have said it better myself...People are always trying to start something, my goodness.This video has probablly had more views in the last week then any other time, as if didn't exist up until now. Who cares? so what, shut up and take the little you may make off of this. Here's a penny or 2 for your tip jar :)
@alwysbritt You're an idiot. Anne Teresa doesn't need Beyoncé's money. But she shouldn't just accept when B blatantly steals her choreography without so much as asking for permission first. If anything the comments on here prove that most of Beyoncé's fans don't have any clue about De Keersmaeker's status within the contemporary dance world
I remind the proponents of 'high art', that neither art nor pop is science, she doesn't have to cite 'correctly' if she uses or cites other's material in a non carbon-copy way, that is, I don't see any plagiarism here. If Beyonce wouldn't be black but white and named Tarantino anyone would PRAISE her for her expert-citations..
but.... this is modern/postmodern dance and not just quick pop dance "moves"... i.e., the movement is weighted and the dancers are classically trained, and the difference is apparent to anyone with a background in dance or who has studied it on some level... this is quite difficult to do accurately (weighted/grounded), even to trained dancers
ITS A GREAT ROUTINE ...... BUT IF BEYONCE WHO SHE IS WAS JUST A AVERAGE PERSON WHO PERFORMED IT ON LETS SAY .......AMERICAS GOT TALENT NOT A MILLIONAIRE.... WOULD LAWYERS BE INVOLVED ? SHE COULD HAVE ASK FIRST I AGREE . MAYBE A REMIX WITH CLIPS OF THE MOVIE ...
Big thank you to Beyonce rather than a law suit, as most of us wouldnt have ever watched this or appreciated it if she hadn't brought the style to our attention
The publicity this will get from her will be great! And really not the first ppl to dance using chairs or use a particular style of costume or setting so maybe appreciate that someone likes your work and thank them and get publicity that way rather than just trying to get publicity via lawsuit /shame
@Jeliah78 Having control about how repurposed material is used, even years after its creation, is part of why intellectual property laws exist. If De Keersmaeker had been asked by Beyonce and her team of lawyers whether she wanted to license some of her choreography for a music video she might have agreed to do it. The point is, it would have been her decision, and if she had decided to participate, she would have gotten paid for her contribution. did she? no and that's called theft.
why whenever beyonce does something everybody want to make way she use relevant, like if she didn't use it nobody would be watching dis. Like i hate followers u guys need to learn how to be leaders!!!!!!
@heiberarias technically beyonce did not bring you here. if it wasn't for her being called out on her choreographic plagiarism you STILL would have never seen this. her saying that she was trying to "generate publicity for the original" is the most ridiculous thing i've ever heard. while her "funny face" and diana ross references were very easy to read, how many people in the general public are educated on belgian contemporary dance? give credit where credit is due, beyonce!
@bella50008 Typical comment, how many others have you used it on? At the end of the day news is news. You gotta see what these overpaid artists think they can get away with next.
Thanks Beyonce, can't say I'm particularly a Beyonce fan, or an aficionado of contemporary dance - but I wouldn't have found this any other way. And it's made my day a little brighter.
Anyways, at least America is hip to awesome art now. This is older, but it makes me think of the stage dance that used to be filmed in the 40s, 50s and 60s in America -- like Katherine Dunham's stuff!! Great stuff! I am really enjoying this clip. The energy is ridiculous. Wish I knew the real significance of it, but I really love it!!
Beyonce and her team are not stupid. They know that if they blatantly copied this, they'd be facing lawsuits.They didn't copy everything but rather took inspiration from this and made it their own. I'm sure they consulted with this Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker before even making the vid.
People, please choreographs this I never heard her name.
Accuses the gorgeous Beyoncé have plagued the choreography, which is repeated about 500 times ... I lost 7:43 minutes of my life watching this video, I would do better .... :)
This comment has received too many negative votesshow

KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK 'nothing to do .. nothing to see even in the video below I see is a bunch of retarded, shake it like some worms tired of life .. for the love of God right? denounce Beyoncé, who made a video as "Max" "Wonderful" u like this? Spare me has nothing to do, nothing to see it, these women want to make money over the other Save me Save me dear ..
the difference between beyonce and this is simple: this has a concept and a method to achieve the perfect demonstration of this concept - so it has a MEANING. beyoncé is all about nonsense dancing and sexual appeal. xoxo
@akmalhakimvlog You think so? Beyoncé have an amazing voice, that's why she's famous. Lady Gaga is famous because of all those crazy outfits and naked posing. Beyoncé isn't! Shout your mouth, you don't know what you're talking about! Beyoncé is one of the greatest and best artists ever! She's legendary!
@BeyonceEsmee You may say that, but it's the fact that almost all female artists or singers sell their albums and arts through sexual appeal. Name whom who doesn't...but, no hard feelings.. I am a Beyonce' fan too! Love her musics and dance :)
I don't get the hype lol Beyonce did a 10-20sec clip of a 8min dance and she didn't even dance in it lol she just wore the same clothes and had the chair and the empty room lol
Yes B brought me here..I really can see why Beyonce copied Rosas because this is very neat and classy...clean,strange,art,classic form of dancing....Good Job!!!!!
Ya'll mad because Beyonce is the biggest pop star in the world right now and she earn 16 grammy's!!!!! So Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker needs to have a seat on that damn chair and be GLAD that Beyoncé be inspire by her work (who's amazing btw) & made her relevant in this generation! Merci

And really not the first ppl to dance using chairs or use a particular style of costume or setting so maybe appreciate that someone likes your work and thank them and get publicity that way rather than just trying to get publicity via lawsuit /shame

@Jeliah78 Having control about how repurposed material is used, even years after its creation, is part of why intellectual property laws exist. If De Keersmaeker had been asked by Beyonce and her team of lawyers whether she wanted to license some of her choreography for a music video she might have agreed to do it. The point is, it would have been her decision, and if she had decided to participate, she would have gotten paid for her contribution. did she? no and that's called theft.

@heiberarias technically beyonce did not bring you here. if it wasn't for her being called out on her choreographic plagiarism you STILL would have never seen this. her saying that she was trying to "generate publicity for the original" is the most ridiculous thing i've ever heard. while her "funny face" and diana ross references were very easy to read, how many people in the general public are educated on belgian contemporary dance? give credit where credit is due, beyonce!

impressive work though i must admit, the first girl with long hair is the one i'm drawn to watch - her moves are powerful and meaningful.
at least beyonce copied from a creative and talented choreographer :) haha

Thanks Beyonce, can't say I'm particularly a Beyonce fan, or an aficionado of contemporary dance - but I wouldn't have found this any other way. And it's made my day a little brighter.

Anyways, at least America is hip to awesome art now. This is older, but it makes me think of the stage dance that used to be filmed in the 40s, 50s and 60s in America -- like Katherine Dunham's stuff!! Great stuff! I am really enjoying this clip. The energy is ridiculous. Wish I knew the real significance of it, but I really love it!!

Beyonce and her team are not stupid. They know that if they blatantly copied this, they'd be facing lawsuits.They didn't copy everything but rather took inspiration from this and made it their own. I'm sure they consulted with this Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker before even making the vid.

Well, one reason why this piece isn't as popular as it should be, is because there wasn't YouTube back then...this would have been a sensation!
But I am glad that Beyonce referenced it in her video, because it brought me to this incredible piece. I could never have seen it otherwise....

the difference between beyonce and this is simple: this has a concept and a method to achieve the perfect demonstration of this concept - so it has a MEANING. beyoncé is all about nonsense dancing and sexual appeal. xoxo
