Toni Basil - Street Beat

WOW Toni got eye popping moves love the James Brown slide

When I was a kid I hated Toni Basil because of the song Mickey... What a fool I was...

underrated but so talented voice and dance

Tolle Frau,tolle Performance ♥️

Omg yass finally i found this song 😭😭 it didn't show up on spotify so i had to ask my dad, he yold me he forgot the title already. Thank god I've found it ❤

Amazing! OG talent! 1 of my faves when I was a kid 😊

I just learned Tarantino hired her to choreograph all the dancing in OUATIH, and she’s in the beginning of the movie dancing with Margot Robbie’s Tate. Cool.

wow she’s a dancer too!!

💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋

Superb choreographer and dancer!

Omg does this give u a Paula Abdul feel lol 😂

Can you imagine she was 40 years old when she did this? She sang live and did all that dancing and turns precisely. This performance is very underrated.

The chorus is similar to low ride by war.

until now no dance professional in my country ever match up to Ms. Basil.

2022 now watching

I always remember this.

worst song ever

She was also 40 years old when this was made. If you've heard her great song "I'm 28" from 1966, she answers her former self (and Graham Gouldman the songwriter) on the theme of "a woman moving past her prime".

I love the pirouettes 😍

Obviously classically trained!!! Woohoo you are a legend.

Wow😳amazing.....

July 2022

hey look, it's ukraine colors. how prophetic!

More talent than Madanna

And the cow jumped over the moon...

🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

Enough of this hip hop is a Black thing. She really is the original. And she never forgets how to add that hip hop locking. She's awesome!

What a great performer.

So this is where they got the idea of.....
Paula from

How did she do that? Singing and dancing perfectly. Wonderful!

The dancing outshone the song.

That was some DOPE!!!! street dancing.

Wow cool ballerina

You don't suppose Gwen Stephani got some ideas from this video do you?

I'm here after seeing a video of her dancing vigorously in her mid 70s. 👍👍👍

Yes 80$ hits

What the hell did I just watch? She can literally out dance every popstar today!

Now I'm impressed

Guys, not everything from the 80s is good.

I got a feeling I'd be hearing this in movies to come

I always liked her, but I never realized her true talent till this video.. Her talent is far better than any who calls themselves dancers. She should have more recognition for her work.. Too many choreographers get left behind while the stars get the credit..

An amazing dancer and act. Awesome 👏

She is a master. She can do it all, & make it look easy. She's a phenomenal prodigy. Love her.

Holy cow! Toni Basil was Paula Abdul, Madonna, Brittney Spears and Janet Jackson all in one BUT better. Goes to show how the best doesn’t alway$ win.

They just didn’t promote her right, ya cause I never saw her on tv during the 80’s except for the song Mickey.

The list of celebrities this fine woman has worked with over the decades is endless.

Helloooo toni is a better madonna enough said

Who does not love Toni Basil, really.

Didn't the Smothers Brothers Show end in 1969? She and her troupe set the standard for the decade yet barely visible on the horizon of their time

She's a legend. Just because some people don't know who you are doesn't mean you're not the best at your craft.

Madonna has nothing on this lady.
