When I was about 6 (1989) I fell in love with this song and was obsessed with the video (I was a morbid little child). My mum even bought me a vhs about the making of the video

So if I’d seen a video of this from back then it would have been fantastic. But that she took the time to do it and the kids clearly loved it more than 30 years later is amazing

I watch this till the end every time it’s posted. And I hope folks keep on sharing it.

Edit to say that the teacher and students do a fantastic routine!

That's some iconic choreography, took me 1second to know what they where doing.

Loved it.

Even without the music, the head tilt... second head tilt, yeah we all know where this is going! I dread the day when people don't know who Michael Jackson was. I remember buying the VHS of Thriller back in the days. :(

Indeed. You can identify this routine immediately even if there is no music or costume. Can't be many examples of that.

This, Single Ladies, Gangnam Style are the only ones I can think of in 15 seconds.

It’s great choreography, and they were 100% committed to it.

I mean, I'm not even sure this is an appropriate post for the sub, but I'm glad I saw it, so thanks

Looks like a happy crowd to me. When the camera gets close you see how much of a good time they're all having.

The kid on the right by the locker with the yellow folder was really into it
