Hi AgeAction. I love this video. It cracks me up and inspires me. I have a blog site called PositivelyOld, which this video was perfect for. Hope you don't mind, but it's the featured video for this week. Thanks for sharing the inspiration and the humor. Lov it!

@Positivelyold We are delighted that you chose to feature our video. It has been running for 18 months and still the viewing numbers climb. It was meant as a bit of fun and a way of challenging public perceptions of ageing. Age, as it says, is just a number. Thanks and best of luck with the blog. Eamon, Age Action.

I love the message of this video,but I don't associate bling,and hip hop culture with being young. I keep my mind thinking like I did when I was a junior in high school. Knowledge is the only addition I only into my mind. I'm still immature when I want to be,and still sneaky,still a bit creepy,still like high school chicks,even though I'm damn near 30...sweet

@WestcoastMusicals Thanks for your kind comments. We are a small older people's charity and this was our first attempt at a viral video. Needless to say we don't do rapping classes, but it was an attempt to say "hey, don't stereotype older people". The group are a genuine dance group for older people and were so much fun. Their love of life and fun comes across in the video. The fact that they were up to do it says lots about them. Thanks again for your comments, Eamon, Age Action.

Who the hell is doing the seo and marketing?!?

DOH !!!!!

You can't really force a viral video to happen but you can at least do the title properly.

After seeing the story I instantly searched for "DJ Hip Op" and got no results. Took ages to find.

I recommend "DJ Hip Op - Age Action Ireland" as a title instead of "growing up is optional" so at least people can find it!

The video itself is great! lol

[AgeAction]

We've fixed that. Thanks for the feedback

Inspiring message! We love rap, and your hip op, as a fun way for seniors to tell their stories and keep fit, mind sharp and healthy in every way.

I think this video is great. Therefore I was wondering...

I am currently working on Sky One's 'Got To Dance', a TV programme now in it's third series. We are open to all genres and we would really like to show that people over 50 still have fun and still like to dance. I wondered if you would be interested? We had a few over 50 groups on last year and they had a really positive experience so we would love to build on this. Please contact me for more details.
