Combine the thrill of old-school formation dancing videos e.g. Janet Jackson with tap dancing, add in a Purple Salute, and you get Syncopated Ladies Salute A Legend.

AUGrghghragragra that was amaaaazing. That song is one of the sexiest songs in my lifetime and combining with powerful women dancing their asses off and, like, whoa.

Possibly the least coherent comment I've made here but I don't care.

Now that's what I call tap dancing.

I LOVE THIS! I LOVE KNOWING THIS EXISTS! I LOVE THESE DANCERS! THANK YOU SO MUCH!

I love their excellent tapping.

I love their low-heeled tap shoes.

I love their affection for classic tap dance—the canes!—and yet their commitment to doing their own thing.

I love their perfect unison.

I love their seamless bringing together of disparate things they love.

I love their tap-dancing. Did I mention that? I am going to watch all their videos now.

Thank you for introducing them to me.

See also: Prisencolinensinainciusol, by Adriano Celentano (Wikipedia). A friend of mine reckons it must have been an influence on Janet Jackson's Rhythm Nation.

Big Fan! Chloe Arnold YouTube with more stuff.
First saw them perform on So You Think You Can Dance, year or two ago maybe.

I was just musing the other day about tap dancing and wondering why little girls even take it anymore. THIS IS WHY!!!
