Sophie Merry : a modern Fairy tale Part1

[thenewmike2012]

Bottome line...they can pay her $50 to do her dance instead of $5,000 for a cleleb to do the same moves. Economics 101.

[qlight]

the answer is very siple: there is a man talking barely above sophie merry

[wendysize69]

NEW REMIX : "GROOVY DANCING GIRL VS【MMD】! by Dj Tyra" !!

[jrodsboob]

She was sexier when I thought she was a teen age girl.

[Milesaru]

@jrodsboob Pedo....

[NRPBrute]

Daft Punk FTW!

[sexorcista]

Mexican: Florence Cassez??

French: No. Marie, u Idiot!

[funkb0x]

To do something you enjoy & then become famous is a dream come true.

Kaching! $ £ 1,000,000 & V's up to the mindless cynics

Brand or no brand this story is inspirational

[MizzMilk]

They've actually done the opposite on music videos to give a slow-motion effect. See Mariah Carey's "Heartbreaker"

[idividedbyzer0]

They make it seem like the advertisers had to dig and dig to find Sophie's video. If you type in 'dancing girl' or the like, her video is at the top of list. Lol. Granted they had to know some English. Can I get paid to find viral videos now? XD

[AMARILLO333]

right on 

[fireicer]

holly crap i seen this vid and shared it years ago wow she went a long way. good one

[SirMaximus21]

u guys are stupid. She is a great person and deserves whatever that company has to offer her.

[anrocfan]

That is uplifting to watch. Great job Sophie, best wishes!

[Nat4Brendan]

Well done, Sophie!

[fetchism]

I remember watching her videos 3 years ago and now she's BIG

[wezzahasnoend]

it is now 5 miilion views

[Berboc]

Respect !

[hooversom]

Noooooo She has a boyfriend :(

[BlkPanda05]

Sopie Merry... does she still dance? is she still an it girl? whats new with her now?

[mountainstandardtime]

What a wonderful Story! Sopie Merry best of luck to you! The way you dance has given millions so much joy!

[RentandWicked]

this is interesting and Sophie is gorgeous and i'm happy they didn't use a celebrity to represent them

[TaniaZL]

I'm so happy for her. shes so awesome!!

[speccwolf]

Her hair is exactly like mine, scary.

[jonicharlie]

fuck the hater's...!! sophie's a legend in my house an from dublin too!! well done lass!!

[fontenator]

OUI OUI

[insazn]

I always knew this would happen to "bandytoaster"

[kagetoh]

Nice to finally see her without a big hat.

[kshitijkumar89]

can some1 plz tell the name of song starting @ 5:30 ?

thx,,,

[maxzum69]

The idea is marvelous (maravilloso). WHY?!!!? Simple people want brands that are for people!!!!!! So the person representing the brand should be everyday day hard working people ho take the bus to work!

[xRawlins]

That accent is not very sexy. Not sexy at all. Her sexy ginger appearance saves her though.

I hope that advertising agency succeed, because their idea seemed pretty retarded.

[simoncosa]

Be happy you can make some money and get some recognition for it. You're amazing. Never compromise, keep the magic.

[Triplesod]

Ha! Fantastic!

I'd like to think I did my bit to help your career, as I was a big fan of your original vid and shared it about a fair bit (I reckon you have a little fan club in Manchester).

All the best of luck for the future, missus!

[coffeecake91501]

go ahead groovy girl!

[mystiqueivy]

red haired irish girl?! ME WANTS.

i mean look at her, she's gorgeous!!!

[cricketbat08]

bejabbers, she's hot

[sblug2]

Hope she'll make it. Unexpected fame is not always a blessing, you've got to get used to it, and have friends to support you... I figure.

[Triplesod]

@sblug2 Fuck's sake, sblug, she's not just got to number one with a debut single. She has her picture up in a few shops in Paris.

Do you remember the faces of the models in the lingerie area of your local hypermarche? Do you know their names? Would you consider them famous?

She's not going to go all Ian Curtis or Kurt Cobain on us, mate! ;-)

[sblug2]

@Triplesod Yeah, true.

[silentbluerose]

you should consider adding captions or subtitles.

[jojaRoCk]

at 1:26

i made an architectural design as a thesis. and its brilliant famer!

[PancamoXXL]

HELLO FROM ROMANIA ! go for it :)

[lanitop]

...which confirms my fable for irish, red haired girls...

[DeadLegionProduction]

knew she made it famous.

[DixieRected]

So cool.. I remember watching that "Groovy Dancing Girl" video before she blew up.. now she is known around the world. All of this made possible by people digging her dancing.

[dworld77]

me and you and all other people made her to be this did she said Thanks.?

[dworld77]

Sophie you deserve it :)

[yoder1010]

Amazing story Sofie!!!!

[jimfitzpatrick]

Brilliant, Sophie!!! C'mon the redsers. We rule!

Jim FitzPatrick D'artist

[lookoutforthatrock]

good for her ^^ what i love about this is shes legit. She looks so damn cute when shes being made up and shes got this "wtf?! look on her" face like how the hell did i get here?! Shes hella cute and im diggin it

[twigdtd]

I agree! she has so much to look forward to now that she has opened the door to fame!

[dafrapinc]

amo a esta tia

[elrondallo33]

i love her and how she became popular to de world

[lilmizcoatesy98]

what is the website called?

[maxivanuk]

Хорошая девчонка, удачное совпадение! Умничка - так держать! Пусть ей повезёт в жизни!

[cf80to01]

Good for her!

[Winky395]

yes I hope she gets anything and everything she ever wants

[blurrybigfoot74]

The intro music, does anyone know what it is? I've heard it somewhere before.  Is it free domain?

[imatraptperson17]

Electronica is the best party, clubs, and sometimes bar music.

Daft Punk and The Bloody Beetroots

Sophie Merry is the shit!

Sophia, come to America and party up with us!

[Podok86]

Stupid euro's and their techno music.

LET IT GO! TECHNO BLOWS!

[Box151]

See young ladies and she didn't have to shake her ass or dance like every other girl who needs attention and acts like a whore. She just had fun..

[MattColler]

Sophie Merry is fantastic, but the advertising people are completely pathetic!!

They find this spunky Irish girl on the Internet with bags of chutzpah, but then decide to turn her into the same old stuck-up, brainless "professional model". It reminded me of the 'dove evolution' ad, minus the irony.

I guess the lesson is: if you have no personality and no imagination, then this is the brand for you!!!!

My message for Sophie: stay who you are darlin' - don't ever let them change you!

[Triplesod]

@MattColler It's a hard world, mate. The vast majority of us don't have the opportunity to decide whether or not to "sell out". We all need work, a career and a few Quid/Euro/Punt at the weekend.

I say good on her. How do you know she's not using this company for her own ends, Matt?

We'd all like to think we'd turn down being in an advert, shouting "CASH MY GOLD!!" but if you're struggling to get by and you get the chance to earn a few bob, most will take it.

[AtomicBonzaiTree]

@MattColler Yeah! That's just what I was thinking watching the video.

[rsouthern]

@MattColler The advertising people ruin people like Sophie and her followers of originality on purpose. They also are your teachers, professionals, governments, personal Jesus, and your parents who poison your water w fluoride, replace your invisible child friend with the terrorist Jesus, send you to jail, control you, your time, what you do, etc. Gods wrath and laws in Christianity is the collective power of adults in power running the America who were forced into it themselves or joined freely

[Ofir84]

@rsouthern

take your pills

[SuperRichierich69]

@MattColler WELL SAID MATE

[Klorikus]

We believe in you, Sophie!

[GSly095]

i thought she was 12 or something! wow. shes an awsum dancer

[ncwdane]

That is so Cool

I Just Love the video she does by the water

& even use it to exersize to

I had no idea she got a break like this, thats HOT !

[elitelujan]

love you sophie y like hoy you dance

[SOLdealemana]

just nice...viral marketing without campaign...just pay off charactwers with many attention

[borisrainesh]

And this film, just another brick in capital of Merry... it's realy quaet simply to understand, that everething we have is money... it is sad, isn't it?

[Johniker]

She has got the cutest Irish brogue. :-P I love it.

[I4mNotEm0]

4:47 what is this song?

[FattMike]

It is Junk Bond Trader by Elliot Smith, off of his album Figure 8.

[I4mNotEm0]

thx :D

[FattMike]

NP!

[gallente4TW]

very well deserved. fantastic.

[xWolfxDemonx]

[thenewbieone]

good on her

[DotingANARCHIST]

oh hell. corporate bastards got another good one.

[PimblyCharles]

I didn't know she was a ginger. damn.... that ruined my fantasy..... lol (joke)

[gabrielirlanda]

she deserves it

[castanza128]

I remember this chick, the daft punk girl

[jenzeldd]

yeah. bandy toaster on here. the daft piunk vid is there. classic.

[dashwood123]

Sophie Merry me :)

[buchbach]

elo Sophie. Pozdrowienia z Polski :)

[egwulf]

Sophie deserved to be successfull. She dances from her heart.

[ritchie56]

Wow! She's a beaut!

[just4tap]

Actually DD you are wrong and right! What she does is dancing and how she feels when the music plays...BUT the type of dance you are refering to is Lyrical Dance. Plus, anything that is different, cool, or helps the dance community evolve and or grow is a positive addition to the art form.

I am a Tap Dancer. The emotion isn't what always drives Tap Choreography. Often it is the rhythm or simply the beat.

[DDRdubers]

to be honest, i dont think it matters if you're black, white or a baboon or even a fucking camel. the girls who spend most of their saturday nights bent over holding their ankles on the dancefloor arent even close to dancing. dancing is supposed to be related to the emotion of the music. so when did bending over like you're about to fart have anything to do with that?

[shampusa]

niceee

good job

[LizzahLeinsHen]

lol

[czarmangis]

Finally! A White woman has taken the art of dance away from women that can only dance with their stupid butts. Good Bye Butt Dancers! Hello actual creativity. And from Ireland to boot! Ha!

[kpmr1331]

This is truly is an amazing story... BUT your DUMB ASS comment is the most IGNORANT crap i've ever heard. If you go back on her videos she does move her butt quite a bit....sooo i'm guessing you're as flat as a board...ugly and prejudist to boot, huh?? BTW.... "Butt Dancers" will always be around to make your flat ass look bad...haha

[czarmangis]

Of course she "moves her butt" it's attached to her body,genius. The difference between her and what passes as "dancing" on the BET channel is that she doesn't spend the entire video bent over and grabbing her ankles.

[kpmr1331]

Like I said, You are very ignorant!! There are a lot of great dancers and choreographers that do an amazing job... on BET, MTV or whatever other channel. But, even though this girl is good at what she does... unfortunately that type of dancing is NEVER going to be as good and accepted as hip hop and other types of dances that also..."White Women" do.

[kpmr1331]

I agree that back in the 90's it was pretty gross to watch these women bend over and grab their ankles...but hey who the fck are we to discriminate . sound nothing but ignorant and racist pointing out BET. BTW no single person dancing this type of dance will EVER "Take the art of dancing"... you're lost!

[czarmangis]

I agree that this dance style will never take the dancefloor by storm and that my pointing out the base and no-talent nature of what is accepted as dancing in todays America comes to us primarily from black people does come off as an ignorant and racial attack. Heck,what else could I say though? It is a fact that most females on a dance floor do in fact conduct themselves in a manner that resembles baboons "presenting" themselves to the dominant male. To deny this at all would be disingenuous.

[kpmr1331]

WHAT??... 1. To me (Me being a white woman), you're racist. 2. What the heck are you talking about "Baboons".... In that case this girl resembles a crack head (No pun intended). I'm done talking about this. Get out of wherever you live and experience the world and different cultures cause there is nothing worse than being ignorant.

[OJReadMore]

Congratz. Keep dancing.

[Superwondermanhyper]

It is possible that I want to have children with her. But this is just a rumour.

[JustinSmale]

Wow some one call cbc I just heard a rumor LMAO

[amarshuna]

holy magret

[nephythis]

Congratulations SophyMary!!!

[MelodiousTrance]

How old is she?

She looks around 18-21

But her voice sounds much older.

She's so pretty and man I wish I could dance like her!

[paranoia1337]

that hat is so wannabe cool

[fivefoflow]

It's official! You HAVE to suck to be popular on youtube! If you are good at something, nobody likes it, but if you are mediocre and less, then you are amazing!

[steinbeck1805]

Amazing. What's the song almost at the beginning, when she's picked up from the airport (0:51ff)

[yanchiha]

афигеть!

[urbanfireblade]

All the best Sophie, i bet you still can't believe it yourself, i hope you enjoy yourself along the way! Think you'll always be known for your Daft Punk- 'Harder, better, Faster, Stronger' Dancing Girl Vid- It was the Best!

[cloudy2eyz]

[neonfishtank]

[alphadeck69]

[Thandiwe15]

[PebbleBreeze]

[BloodxGusher]

Sophie is soooo Beautiful. I love her accent. I would definitely date her. But mostly..I want to dance with her. That would be soo cool.

[Jayfive276]

I saw the Etam ad videos and was about to get angry that they'd stolen the idea for the vids.

But now I see this...well...isnt the world a happier place for things like this happening :)

[Arachnid17]

She freakin kicks ass!

[visionfoxtrot]

[feeneybopper]

[BriscoCountyJr23]

LOL, that's funny because I've had Irish born girlfriends and they said that I have a decent Irish accent.

[coolstream1]
