Breakdancing’s origins are in the 1970s, but as legendary break dancer Crazy Legs notes, “the media got ahold of it in like ‘81, '82.” This album came out in 1983, hot on the heels of this new style. (The film Wild Style came out in the same year.)
Breakdance Lyrics
There was this new feeling coming out of the streets
Everybody's talkin' 'bout it wherever they meet
Down by the corner, keep getting the heat
Then my feet start moving to the rhythmic beat
[Chorus]
Breakdancin'
Break out
Breakdancin'
Break out
They used to do The Locomotion, do The Jerk and The Twist
But there just ain't never been nothin' like this
Now poppin' and lockin' is the new way of talkin'
There's a work at the shop, spinnin' out on the floor
[Chorus]
Hearts are pumpin', beat is thumpin'
Love the way you're lookin' tonight
Fevers risin' no surprisin'
We won't have the time to fight
(Dance, dance, dance, dance, out, out, out, out)
[Chorus]
