It's hard to think of a better song or video that captures the frantic exuberance of youth -- at least back in the '80s. I was a freshman in college when this came out and we totally loved this.

@charlotteguy7

This happens everyday during lunch in the band room in my school, "QUICK WHIP OUT YOUR TUBA!!!"

[ChuckNorrisBeatMeUp]

Thanks! Check out more Fame videos on my channel.

(I'm uploading even more this weekend)

Real life would be so much more pleasant if people would spontaneously break out into song & dance like in this scene. In the movies, one person starts, and it ends up brilliantly like this video. In reality, one person starts, and security usually shows up.

This would be one kick ass cafetria to be in during high school.

[MyRayrayhercules]

I wish we could do somrething like this in my scxhool. If there was a school like this I don't care who I would have to kill to get in

Hit #1 on the Billboard dance chart for 1 week with Fame (Irene Cara) & Red Light (Linda Clifford) in Aug 1980

[moonspinner55]

how adorable was Irene Cara??

[arweiss100]

This is pure bliss & magic. Blues, pop, rock, & jelly roll piano jazz never sounded so bada**, tasty & fun, served up phenomenally by Irene Cara, Lee Curreri & the film's ensemble cast of musicians, singers, & dancers, improvised with phat sass, sparkling exuberance, & flavor!



[MichaelGaribaldi]

I went to a school like this!!!!  I've played this song on the piano for a chorus as well. It's a damn fun song to play!!

[jamesjeremy]

@nellielab LOL!! to your first sentence

[zolluuu]

"Get out of my seat, Roger."

[THEwinsome3]

i think that the new fame (2009) lunch seen beats this by far! thts just my opinion

[MsNikki4lyf]

Singing, Acting, Dancing, Drawing, Design (aka Clothes), Instruments, and Writing are #1! Mainly because your born with it. its not something you can just learn. Even Instruments. Its all about Interest and Natural Born Talent.
