This dude is like a fusion between Tim Curry's Frank N Furter (Rocky Horror) and Tim Curry's characters in Clue and Home Alone 2. Tim Curry levels unparallelled by mere mortals.
I noticed that too!

Don't forget when he was Stalin in Red Alert 2
More like the joker.
Fun fact: Irving Berlin was still alive in 1983 when this cover was released, which made him, at 95, the oldest living songwriter to have a hit on the Billboard Charts during his lifetime.
well,what did he think about this version of his song?
@@HowToKillAliens idk, I never asked him.
@@gabe_s_videosI did. And he told me his thoughts on his deathbed. But I swore secrecy 🤐
He said it left him feeling gay. Take that as you will.

There are several inspirational themes going on in the video.😂
You win the internet today with that comment 😅
He was definitely in the dog costume at the end.
Danny turns a corner on his Big Wheel and Taco is at the end of the hallway tap dancing lol
I love how fever dreamy 80’s music videos are

I see the original of this video, without edited. Searching for the original of this clip. The dark side, bad side of unedited version of this video is the "black faces"... I wanted the or also censured version without "black faces".
MTV was a new thing and the music industry got quite experimental with the new "music video" format. A lot of you just take the idea of a "music video" for granted, but in 1983, it was still a novel concept. And in the 1980's MTV actually DID play music videos!!! 😳 (I know, sounds crazy)
There's a reason putting Vaseline on the camera is a trope.
Nobody escapes the bad part of the Trip 😄
This has such an 80's vampire "recruitment" vibe, I LOVE IT
Honestly going to use this for this exact scenario in a dnd campaign.
This seems like the kinda thing a Toreador from VtM would do. Probably to have more high class humans in clubs for vamps to drink some fancy blood.
Yeah. Made in 1982. Taco has become an overstuffed Burrito in the meantime.
@@IMCcanTWEESTED that seems a bit rude. the dude is old
@@IMCcanTWEESTED I just looked him up and he looks good
Hey Taco, I was an 80's kid, I'm 56 now...this song brings me back to the best time of my life, Thanks for being a part of that.
So was my dad, prob two years younger than you. He showed me this song when I was 6, now I’m 21 and I still think this song is a banger😂

Oh god must be charming
Hello from Moscow, remember how my father played me this song on a pirated cassette on an old tape recorder, and this one was my favorite, I constantly sang along, although I didn’t know a single word) Today firstly saw the clip) Still listen almostly every day, it sends me back to those bright times of calmness, when everything in life was good... 🖤
Spaciba,nice to hear about your memories!Enjoy my youtube channel,more is coming soon!
New hits - it's never too late! Waiting with love)
@@TacoActually, it’s “spasibo”; And Moscow can mean the city in Idaho, not just Russia!

True. This song was very popular in ussr and post-ussr countries.
A a kid i found this sort of unsettling. I can see what they were doing here now. It is comparing the elite to vampires, and it is still unsettling.
BINGO!😜
This song will never get old! Taco's appearance gives off heavy Tim Curry vibes!
My wife and I were just thinking the same thing about him looking like and vibing like Tim
I've always felt that way. It's a real thing.
Agreed.
Nail on the head.
That's exactly what I thought!
This song is so addicting for some reason
IT IS VERY
Yes very much so
I listen to it a least 4 times a day.
I couldn't agree more!
@@starlight_maven Same
Bet you didn’t expect a 12 yr/o to be here ❤ I love this song
This was one of my favorite tunes in the 80's. You are fabulous Taco! 💞
This song was written in the 1920s, now it’s the 2020s. Still relevant after all these years. This version will always be from the future.
Relevant? Its not that deep lol
@@TheRealSandorClegane the wealth divide today is probably far greater than in 1939. So yes.
@@AnedimeRelevant is relative. Perhaps you should follow your own advice?
Still waiting for art-deco to make a comeback
@@chrisp1601 the song isnt makong any deep statements about the damn wealth divide 😂 stfu
This song and video has always struck me as creepy, catchy, unsettling, fun, and disturbing. And I'm here for all of it.
His make-up is a bit too creepy.
I used to be so scared of the mime!
In combination with the music video it's like a dystopian feeling coupled with a facade of vanity.
In short, vain vampire vibes
@@charliegabs Have you seen Ed Sheeran;s video for 'Bad Habits'? Think he was influenced by this video.
For anyone who has seen this and noticed something off, they took out the clips of the dancers in black face and used alternative footage of Taco during the Super-duper lyrics. The original video is archived online for people to view but its understandable why youtube didn't want it up
I liked that version a lot better. It was creepy, and weird. I liked it.
Pathetic revisionism. Are people really so fucking terribly hurt by a bit of archive footage? Taco himself is multi racial and stated it was never meant to be racist and played into the meaning of the song. Should we wipe out or redo everything in the past just because some current political/social trend (which is what it is) is obsessed with making everything baby level safe for people? If so I demand we redo every fucking nasty lgbt etc reference ever because I might be offended. Context is everything. Revisionism is dangerous, that's entering really dangerous territory, like Chinese citizens not knowing about Tiannmen square. The past is the past, good or bad, you can't erase it no matter how hard you try. The response has nothing to do with racism, it's a knee jerk response from social manipulators. It's in the same bucket as pretending Star Trek has never been "diverse" enough or that for some idiotic reason Doctor Who or James Bond should be a woman. Or a black woman. Fuck off. It's fake as shit. Let history be what it is, it's not as if society hasn't improved dramatically. Also it's a fucking cool version of song that pokes fun of privilege. What the fuck more do people want?
F You Tube and their censorship
This version of the video is fantastic anyway
Yeah, that is for the best.
Why are songs in the 80s way better then songs today
They simply weren’t afraid of playing songs about sexy women in steam, traditional composers, references to sci-fi books or 1930’s/40’s covers. + I think the Cold War just did something to their brains via clinging to the ridiculous due to stress
Another oddball song from the ‘80s. Part of why that decade had the best music.
another classic green screen , very unlike this but also 80s is : ENYA Orinocco Flow, FALCO Der Kommisar & SIMPLE MINDS All the things she said ! but yes this is a one off work of Genius
i just wrote here that that is why the '80s is the best decade of music of all time the fact that they allowed this to become a pop hit and it's bc the '80s was so diverse with the music being made.
It was written in 1927 by Irving Berlin.
I don't know if the original was anything other than just a catchy song, but Taco's version with the music video completely re-contextualizes it into pointing out the absurdity of vanity driven fashion and materialism. Absolutely love it.
The original song was from the 1930's... which was it's own weird time with vanity, money, and social classes.
It was. The original 1930s version was about fashionable but poor African-Americans living/going out in Harlem (Lennox Ave[Malcolm X blvd]). Using all the money they had to party on their day off, pretending to be more wealthy then they are. In the 1940s it was re-written for Fred Astaire in the movie Blue Skies, which changed the lyrics to Park Ave and took out many references of the original referencing Harlem. Added references to famous white people, Gary Cooper/Rockefeller. And became a satirize about affluent white people instead. Many people only really know the Astaire version of the song as the "original" so in that case it was always meant to be about the materialism but the real is slightly more complex, especially with it being almost 100 years ago.
Can you believe the absolute garbage 💩 Taco had to put up with because he put the song in its real context? They definitely did like all the Homeless people and it was so appropriate since the Homeless had arrived in America. This was actually a plea to help them, which didn’t happen and still hasn’t happened under Biden.
you must love crap
@Sonia - There's an episode of Jeeves & Wooster where Wooster is trying to learn what I assume is the actual original version and having a hard time of it. Jeeves disapproves, as he seems to do to all of Wooster's musical choices, but offers a suggestion on the tempo(?) that makes it singable. Fry and Laurie, of course. Your explanation clears a few things up for me in that bit. "...with due expediency, putting on the Regency..."
A song right in the transition of disco, rap, and and new wave.
Don’t forget the swing revival
Couldn't have come at a better time
Yes! And it is as weird and fun to younger people as it it was to the rest of us when it first came out. Im glad that this new classic of a classic is getting another spin! 😁

This song was Taco's one and only Top 40 crossover dance hit in America. The song did peaked at the #1 spot on the Billboard Dance chart and it peaked at the #4 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 chart during the summer of 1983. Originally, this song was written by Irving Berlin in the early 1930s. I love that Taco put an terrific spin on this classic song. This song is a definitely banger indeed!!! Taco is the man!!!
Late 20s.
I heard first arrangement of the song in 1983 and it was more pretty for me.
Boys from tap dancing wore lipstick because that’s what the teacher wanted. The next year there were only girls in the class. I thought that Taco was a model. Yes, tap takes stamina and it’s tiring.
He did a video with folks in blackface. It must have been pulled.
@@flyguy5941 Correct. 1:45 to about 3:08 is edited heavily. The entire tapdance part had 2 or 3 dancers in blackface in the original and there was some more beyond that point.
Taco is beyond fabulous. His mouth sings one song and his face and body sing along. 😍
how sweet of you!

My best friend loved this song. I remember her singing it while we were doing balance beams in gym class. She died in 2000. I can’t hear this without thinking of her. So many early 80’s songs are like that. RIP, Debbie. 🙏🏻

I remember my stepdad showing me this music video when I was six or seven. Fourteen now and I still love it! Absolutely nostalgic! ✨
I always loved this song
The thing I love about this is that it came out at a time when everyone was trying to figure out what this whole "music video" thing was and where it was going. So many creatives throwing ideas against the wall and hoping they would stick. It was a new frontier. The wild west. Other euphemisms. But the songs were good.
even the ones with actual structure and some effort put into it sitting atop a fairly decent production value turned into an untranslatable mess in the end. they weren't exactly Tarkovsky, ya know....
Keep in mind this isn’t the original music video. It’s edited because the original had blackface.

One time I was at my cousins house, late one night and he starts playing this song over a speaker. I’ve been addicted since! Also love the twist Taco put on it
I'm actually old enough to remember when this song came out. I was only 4, but the local radio stations played it non-stop for 2 or 3 years. Simpler times.
Remember when you knew like 50 phones numbers off the top of your head? Thats a single 350 digit number. Almost 15 alphabets. Lol. Imagine that today.
Played this on a jukebox in a bar last weekend. Everybody in the bar was roughly in their early to late 20s….whole place was jumping. Classic song that has withstood the test of time. “Downtown, Uptown, get your kicks at the Ritz.”
I like the beginning of this song mostly, but towards the middle and or end, it gets kind of weird and creepy and cringy lol, funny enough still like the song even though the creepy weird cringy stuff is involved.

This was all over the radio that summer of '83. This song, Gary Numan's 'Cars' and Murray Head's 'One Night In Bangkok' left a massive impression on my 10-year-old self. My tape collection was all synth pop. This song still sounds ahead of its time with that mix out. Great to see the original video finally here in great quality.
Thanks for sharing! Prompted me to listen to One night in Bangkok again. I'll be listening Cars next although I don't think I like it quite as much
Yeah nowadays everything is synthetic but back then it was radical.
And Men Without Hats "Safety dance"
I NEVER see anyone mention "One Night in Bangkok"! I grew up bonkers about the musical CHESS so I was thrilled once I discovered that song was a pop hit & thus more widely known, but past my parents' generation it's still way too obscure lol
Not quite the original because they cut out the minstrels in this version
I just feel like taco would be an amazing guy and down for whatever. Like you could take him to a dive bar and he would become everyone’s friend dancing around with a tuxedo and a cane. Likeable dude.
One of the best songs from the 80s without a doubt!
Starting at 3:06, snippets of four Irving Berlin songs. A musical tribute, I suppose. "Always" "White Christmas" "Alexander's Ragtime Band" "There's No Business Like Show Business" Very well done.
YEP!U nailed it!
I didn’t know what the first song was until now.
I can't tell which one impresses me more. The way he sings and his body sings along, his elegant demeanor or how amazing this song is.
The song was written in the 30s or 40s. Irving Berlin.
Yes. He illusionist like David coprr fikd n agic in hewsrts
Always got to appreciate when an artist engages with their audience. Every time I come back to this song I see new comments and Taco engaging with people.
I love the old version of this video.
Nothing beats this 80s synth
So great ! The original is great too, this just takes it to 11!!

Nostalgia is a hell of drug
Timeless. A piece of music culture of the 80s. Tell me you head or foot isn't keeping beat. Taco always wins!!
That's why you shouldn't tamper with its original depiction that the artist intended to portray
only it's not from the 80's though
Nah this thing is already verging on outdated. Who the hell is Gary Cooper? Why does the singer wanna look like him?

35 and it's a banger, something about it just hits right
ditto, 59 here and any friday night sittn with friends, Beer and MTV
Wow how does it feel to be over half a century old
i was 14
I love this video so much. Its a fever dream of dreamy gay 80s. It's every bit as anti capitalist as they live, but celebrating it at the same time. It's a image from the twilight zine where classic cinema from the 30s and earlier set on top of 80s synths and a future apocalypse where Irving Berlin's songs seep through and cannot stay dead.
TACO ES UN VERDADERO SHOWMAN, ES UNICO!!!
Here we are in 2023, exactly 40 years, and this song is still a crowd pleaser. Music, lyrics, costumes, backdrops, and a tapdance to boot! Perfection in a nutshell...

@@jackson5116 I mean its rewritten and presented completely different so I am not sure this is a completely fair assessment.
@@hgbugalou Look for the uncensored original on a google search, then compare.
It can never be done again, because everybody gets offended or pretends to be offended! I see people complaining about black face in the original version. Black people do not get offended by that unless they’re looking for money or clout!
Sadly that time is over. Modern music is designed and crafted so it is a guaranteed success, because a "demo" song could break the bank. Awful thinking, and it results in very monotone and boring "hits". Even funnier is that we just can't seem to leave the great 3 decades, 70s, 80s and 90s behind. In modern music there is a wannabe cover there (I'm good - Bebe Rexha - God, I hate that song), another sample there (2 die 4 by Tove Lo includes a sample from the riff of Hot Butters Popcorn version) or the original artists even make a new version of it (Summer Remix version of Liquido's Narcotic that has nothing to do with the original anymore, the whole vibe is just gone)
I remember requesting this on a radio station and staying up all night waiting for them to play it. ❤

I'm glad Taco revived/revamped this song. The cover is not only a nice production/interpretation, but it also is a lovely piece of parody on "history". The original song was officially registered as an unpublished song in 1927, so it is almost 100 years old!
I believe a family member of mine had the original on record, guess it was my grandma! good remake tho
i thought it was originally done by Irving Berlin?
@@brewcitymike1 Irving made the song indeed in 1927, albeit still unpublished. That is still correct. Harry Richman and Fred Astaire also made a recording during the time Irving finished his movie with the song in it. (coins coins coins) Taco made his own version in 1982.
