The song is called "Puttin' On the Ritz" written in 1927 by Irving Berlin (born Israel Beilin May 11, 1888 in Tolochin, The Russian Empire - Belarus today).
@imonthebox11482 жыл бұрын
MsLatvia, Its refreshing to see somebody mentioning the songwriter. Irving Berlin composed over 3,000 songs through his 101 years. And he composed all his songs only on the black notes of his piano in the key of "f" sharp. He also had a lever built at the base of his piano that when pressed raised all the black keys up one octave. Irving Berlin was born in 1888, he died in 1989. As its coming up to Christmas, Ill just throw in that Irving Berlin composed the greatest Christmas song ever. White Christmas......

I always liked Ginger Rogers response when others it would raise to her about the phenomenal dancer in the talents of her partner, Fred Astaire. She would simply say, “yes, but you should try that backwards and heels!“ Touche Ms. Rogers! That’s a perfect commentary about the condition of women in this country when you think about it. Never paid as much; always have to work harder and better to go up the food chain. If you don’t believe me, think about what happened when they had to re-shoot all of Kevin Spacey’s scenes for the movie, “Money is never enough“ or somesuch. The leading male Mark Wahlberg, his contract offered many hundreds of thousands of dollars per day for were that contingency to occur. Michelle Williams, his female counterpart and one might say a significantly more accomplished actor, was offered base pay I don’t even think I was $100 a day. Mr. Wahlberg was so embarrassed by the difference in pay he donated all of his to charity. Wow.

Fred Astairw was actually a fan of special effects and invented a few. Him dancing with himself as the backline in this video is a good example. He also does a cool floor to ceiling dance with ginger rogers that was a masterful use of mirrors.

Anything done in post through editing is special effects, and this video itself is a good example of old school special effects achieved by splicing together multiple takes into one shot. Its also practical effect since he did every take himself. Also im not entirely sure where using mirrors would land. Practical effects for sure no days, but pretty sure that would have been considered a special effect back then.

Irving Berlin wrote over 3,000 songs and 4 musicals this way.

I remember Taco's version of 'Putting on the Ritz' circa '80's but it wasnt until today when I stumbled upon your post that Fred Astaire did the original version. Thank-you!

Astaire's was the third film version of it. He also recorded the original, racist version, about enjoying mockingly watching the fashionable people of Harlem trying to be high-class, in 1930, but that wasn't the original recording. (It also uses two different offensive terms for African-American women.) Look for the Harry Richman record version (not his slightly later film version) for the first recording (also of the old racist version).

It has the excitement of 60s rock. I like it. I dance to it.

IIRC, this was on the (sadly axed) Tenpenny Towers radio station in FO3. I agree, it would definitely fit in NV, especially if someplace like the Ultra-Luxe had a radio station.

This would fit so damn well if they ever added the NYC Wasteland. Maybe go to the ruins of Broadway and see mutants and ghouls tap dancing; hell of a time.
