Freaking 42 year old song. It is in its original version. I love this dancer has given it a new life and purpose!!!!!

As a professional dancer that’s been in more cyphers than I’d care to admit, this is incredible. GENUINELY incredible. It’s not just the musicality - anyone can hit beats with movements - it’s HOW he did it. He REALLY sat in the pocket and let the movement breathe. It wasn’t just hit into another hit. This is masterful completion and execution of hip-hop fundamentals. You can see the popping, locking, house, etc foundations blend perfectly through his movement. Not just that, but his freestyle has PERSONALITY. He’s not dancing TO the song, he’s dancing WITH it. He's fucking amazing.

I'm a 77 year old former "Disco Queen" and after watching this amazing performance am now a convert to Street Dancing! Can't count the number of times I have watched this. Thank You D Soraki for bringing so much joy and opening my eyes to another exciting world!

Diana Ross need to compliment this guy, he brought new energy to this song, I'm 61 years old and I love this young man.

You know what? He seems like he waited for that song all his life to play at a competition. And finally perfection great performance

From the jump he let go and allowed the music,the event, the venue the people, his competitor to VIBE through him. That was PURE JOY and Dance using his body as a vehicle. Orale!

I am 60 years old, I have seen this 20-30 times and I am so impressed, he is so talented and amazing.

I've seen this so many times, yet every single one of those times has me grinning like a fool and vibe along with him. Talented is just too small a word for this dancer.

I know nothing about dance but one of the coolest things to me about this performance is how it doesn't at ALL look like something he thought of before that moment. It looks like the music turned on & he just started moving. So effortless & his energy is infectious.

In case anyone is curious, this, to me, is what pure joy, looks and sounds like. I can’t stop watching it. It makes me feel happy.

This is a perfect example of "Dancing to the music". Not a single beat is wasted.

I've watched this countless times. BRILLIANT. ORIGINAL. TECHNICAL. Excellent song choice. Love seeing younger generations embracing our classics. This guy needs to dance around the world with the greatest singers. Much love to you!🙏🏽❤️

Welllll! Son? God has given you such a talent that I have never witnessed I. My 66 years of life. You nailed every beat and demonstrated every piece of lyric in this song. Diana Ross should be extremely proud of you. I pray you go as far as God is taking you. Much love and a prosperous and positive New Year in 2023!❤

This Young Man's Moves Is Insane✨✨ He Literally did Not Miss A BEAT... Where is this Full Video?? It's impossible to stop watching this..

He did become the music. I've watched this a hundred times. He out did himself.

That is beautiful. This guy brings joy in my heart when I see him dancing like that 💯 times bless u my brother

Am I the only one who has watched this over and over again and again

Finally someone who dance like we do at home when we are alone

Is it just me, or does anyone else watch this video on repeat? This is the best dance I've seen, and it's to a song that's over 40 years old. D. Soraki is an excellent dancer! 🎉

ダンスって、全人類に伝わる言語だよね… 国籍とか関係なく、みんなアガってるのがなんか嬉しい

Bro I legit cried when the beat dropped - it's beyond incredible

this dance was absolute fire, the most joyous esscence of this man's soul came out actually made me cry somehow, never had a dance song movie do this haha I'm sure everyone enjoyed to be seeing this live wow this will be cherished forever

What I take most from this outside of his insane musicality is the joyous journey everyone visually goes on with him while he creates art. ❤

The way he hit every drum beat on point was awesome, he deserved to win this. 😊😊😊

It’s amazing how much of his body language showed pure joy but like with a dance moves thesaurus. The part where he spins around with his hands flapping is ascendancy, like he’s being raptured into heaven 😇Beautiful.

This is what you call loving what you have a gift to do. He doesn't dance to the music, the music moves with him. Nothing but pure joy in him when he dances. All I can say is that he gave his all and it paid off in the end!

I can’t count how many times I’ve watched this video, I love it ❤️

Absolute talent! I could watch him all day!

I literally watched this 15 times. I was captivated. I'm a 52 year old woman practicing his performance. Love it !

Absolutely brilliant. Smile inducing. And after finding out that it's freestyle and not choreographed, I'm absolutely shocked at the talent. Carry on young fella, you're bringing a ton of happiness to a great many people. Truly awesome.

I never get tired of watching this guy Dance wish I could give him Stars❤❤❤

NO lie.. I get CHILLS whenever this clip shows up. It's a full body & soul experience ❤❤❤

This is how I dance in my mind 😂 I felt him. He was in pure flow state. So original what if we could approach life with this approach! No more depression, anxiety no more DRAMA we’d be laughing and dancing our problems away! I feel happy just watching him ❤

He dancing free as spirit, not overdoing it and making the beat uniquely his.

Just goes to show that a 42 year old song can be brought back to life. This lad is a fantastic dancer. A true winner in my heart. ❤

I love watching people dance. I'm too old to dance anymore but I will never forget how it made me feel, even if I was a terrible dancer. That's what's so amazing about dance. You don't have to be exceptional like this young man. You have to dive into dancing soul first.

Let me get this straight I'm not a big fan of dancing I'm a metalhead , but after watching this 20 times. This is the most badass single choreographed dance(if it was all freestyle I'm blown away) I've ever seen. wow wow wow. Obviously the whole world think so look at the faces of his peers, mouths are open, hands on their faces like Macaulay Culkin , and smiles on all, fist raising . At the end of a hard days work you can make people do that you've done something right. Keep it up "Machine Gun Feet"

Just when you thought the bar! Couldn't be raised any higher.....! There's some Mad talent out there! And when you come across it. You are left speechless! I have never, never..... Seen anyone interpret this song like this! Every Generation brings it!!

I watch this over and over, this kid just makes me happy.

That intro he did is literally one of the best things I think I’ve ever seen. ❤

This dude timed every single beat accurately. Absolutely amazing… 👏🏽

His routine was so meticulous and his commitment so utterly complete, he couldn't lose. He owned the song, he played the crowd, and when the song transitioned from is opening percussion into the song's full musical theme, that audience was reacting to him. It was a thing of great beauty.

I'm 61, not a fan of this kind of dance, your dancing put a smile on my face, the first time watched it played it over and over again, thank you for you being you,

This dude looks like he's having so much fun! It brings so much needed joy to the world.

one of those times that you cant help but smile and feel happy while watching someone dance

The way the crowd got hyped when the song actually started playing 💙💙💙

He must move through the world with so much happiness, because this is pure joy to watch 🤩💕

Anytime I see someone shinning in their gift, I just get so encouraged and so excited. Humans should shine in their gifts.

I'm saving this to watch as my morning wake up call.

I’ve never seen an audience react so positively to a dancer before or after this young man’s performance here!!!

Been watching this 20 times! 10 for the dance the other 10 for the audience reaction 😂

I'm 56 years old and cannot stop watching this! No need for anti-depressants ... just watch this! 🥰👍💕

The fact that he did this with such an iconic American song makes me love it all the more! ❤❤❤

I could watch him for hours. Pure joy that's poured out on everyone that watches.

I just watched this 100x straight. Mind blown on the musicality and technicality. Dancing is a universal language. This man speaks it fluently⭐🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥⭐

It still amaze me how can he carry this song while looking like he just having fun

First vid I saw of him. Binge any videos of him and now I'm back here. Damn it. I can't stop 😂

This song is about as old as I am and to watch him bring it to life was the greatest thing. Love it.

Can I just bring this vibe and energy to every day of the rest of my life, please! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🔥🔥🔥

Id love to see a full video of this dance. He killed it!!!!!! 🤯

I'm crying with such pride for this phenomenal dancing legend ❤

Just amazing how the dancer was able to capture the energy of the musicians like this!

Anyone else watch this 30 times??? If your looking for a smile just watch this.

You can tell that he can feel the beat and he’s enjoying the music ❤

This video makes me smile every time it pops up in my feed. Then of course I have to watch it another 27 times. Lol. I’ve always loved the drum solo at the beginning. He is what that drum solo looks like in human form. . 😊

He is a Japanese dancer. Everybody was probably wondering how on the Earth he knew that Diana Ross’ song and anticipated every rhythm and beat. I think that was going through everyone’s head. What a shocker! Little they knew he grew up listening to these type of music. Expect unexpected!

That's art, he lives the music. One of the best that I saw.

THIS WAS STRAIGHT-UP FIRE 🔥. DUDE PHYSICALLY HAD HIS BODY HARMONIZING WITH THE BEAT AND RHYTHM OF THIS SONG 🎵 .. PRETTY AMAZING TO WATCH THIS.

I must have since this video at least 100 times already and still love it. Soraki is the music!

This isn't dancing... This is straight vibing. Buddy straight up abandoned his choreography and got into his feels and started dancing like he's alone in his house trying to clean with wine and Alexa playing bangers back to back. Absolutely EPIC performance!

He has a exactly timed move for each beat. Fire

Never seen a dancer become the embodiment of sound waves and lyrics all in one.

The lady in the red dress come closer to observe the craftsmanship. This is a community full of cultural and artistic people.

The joy in his movements when the chorus hits is infectious.

I'm all SMILES watching this!! You can literally feel the joy in his dancing!! I remember when this song came out! If I could dance like this for this song, oh honey, this would be it!! Well done!! Congratulations young man!! 👏 🙌👏😁

This right here is the perfect example of what it means to let the music move you. He literally let the music move him.

This guy needs to be at every festival and every concert!! I have watched him do this performance about 20 times & I just love the joy he exudes! He’s amazing!

Why was I smiling and crying at the same time..???

I was just smiling watching this… I sang this as a child (good old days) and played it for my children as toddlers, now here we are listening to it and they’re grown. Great performance, loved the energy. Peace and blessings EVERYONE! Wishing you all a HEALTHY, PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR!!!

It took me 2 days to realize the complete genius of this performance. His body was completely in sync with the beat and the brakes and the song. I love how in this clip he took the audience on a journey. His choreography had a gradual buildup and the crowd was completely engaged in his performance. He had them in the palm of his hand LOL

This made me literally cry from JOY! Love the looks on the audience faces. Pure joy❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Incredible! My man was on the beat with all his moves!

The beat has grabbed his legs and he can't stop them from moving to it! Absolutely inspired! I'm in love, with his dance.

Damnnnnn....He completely slayed it in every version..... You go boyyyyy.....I got goosebumps

STILL the best. He exudes Sheer Joy when he dances. Sheer JOY!!! God bless him!

I just love watching the love and joy in his dancing …well done young man 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾😍

He made it look so effortless. Props.

Man I was feeling down 😢until I saw this I have been uplifted. Amazing he hit every beat. Love this song he is mesmerizing and on point

I will never tire of this young man he is epic! 67 years I waited for this!❤

I love this! 61 years old, and this is what I want to do when I grow up! Bravo!

Excuse me but the amount of groove this man has 🔥

I have watched this multiple times. This young man is truly talented.

He looks surprised that his body is moving and he has no control over it! He's super brilliant !!!! Love it!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤

When people like myself who don't normally watch dance vids like this end up watching 10 times in a row ...YOU KILLED IT!!! MAN THAT WAS SOME SKILL!!

Love this video man the one where it shows all the reactions in the crowd too👌

For anyone that doesn't know, this is his favorite song of all time. He spent a lifetime listening to it and whenever he felt sad, he would listen to this song. It's in his blood, and he knew the moment the song came on that he would win, but didn't know he'd create probably the most joyful dance clip in history.

I can watch this 40 times a day and NEVER get tired of it ❤

I've watched this so many times and every time it gets even better! he's awesome

when music and dance actually become one. just incredible

Huge smile came on my face when the beat dropped. This guy gave me so much happiness
