    Don't think I've done this one before, although 1983 does come up a lot
    because it's an interesting year. This particular week marks the Top 100 >>> debut of three very familiar singles from the decade, two of which must
    must rank among the most frequently featured songs in this feature. And
    two David Bowie tracks.

    7.aaaa (6)aaa Men Without Hatsaaa The Safety Dance

    Classic track.

    Of a certain kind.

    Someone has gone to the effort of writing up a web page with Google
    Streetview images of all the filming locations:

    <http://guanolad.blogspot.co.uk/2010/04/you-can-dance-if-you-want-to.html>

    A long comment thread there about the actress in the video.

    (and yes, the log is still there - at least up to the current version of
    Streetview)

    I suppose there's no reason to move it now.


    The blog still is there !

    Original single (720p)

    I do like that 12" version. It's not a lot longer but it's an
    interesting alternative arrangement.
