This is a terrible James Brown dance! In 1965 James Brown came up with a foot shuffle dance, which became popular with teens at the time, including me. We use to have dance contests and doing the James Brown dance was one of those dances we competed. Michael Jackson often integrated the James Brown dance (shuffle) in his routines. This version above would not have even qualified as a James Brown dance.
Oh gosh this is amazing. About as good in quality as you can expect a kid's theme park play to be, but pretty darn fun. I so freaking want a costume like the Martians were wearing. Cassiopeia best girl.
