Love my faves EM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=88nNxqN8EzI and SP http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jQ6MddovlPg But have to say, both could take lessons from JSS http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtWJIzKejmU
While JSS's moves come across as a natural groove, SP and EM's moves can sometimes be adorably goofy. :lol:

I can't testify as to JSS's dancing skills, but his hand movements (e.g. "21st Century") come off irredeemably cheesy.

If I wanted singers to dance, I'd watch a DANCER. I want singers to fucking sing....and that's ALL!

Agree, but as far as a LIVE show goes, I would be bored stiff if a frontman just stood there and didn't move.....no matter how great of a singer he/she is. I don't want to see Nsync dancing, but I have no problem whatsoever with a frontman feeling/grooving the song. Music is movement.

JSS can sing & shake his ass off...
Don't tell me otherwise..
The man is a freak of nature
He moves his body to a heavenly beat & is a feast for all the senses!

:wink:

Oh, I want them to MOVE, just not dance like a monkey. JSS rules in this manner, so does Sammy Hagar etc etc...

Bruce is the boss...as Deano will tell you
he doesn't have to prove anything.
Was that CC...who the heck was/is she anyway
Now that was some pathetic moves only a drunk boss fan could dig...

Always wondered if being in high school band made an impression of Steve Perry 'cause he seems to march alot on stage.

I'm stunned that Rick Astley's name hasn't come up yet!

justin timberlake is a nice singer and a better dancer--he can dance; sp is a better singer than a runner, marcher, streaker, timekeeper...then there's bruce; he should leave it to singing. there are those that can sing and those that can dance; and i'm sure they all know who they are.

Aw, man, Michael had it goin' on! :oops:

I used to love INXS! Just look at that crowd bopping in unison! :lol:

Without Michael, I haven't had any interest in them. What a loss it was when he died.

This was my favorite video of theirs: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KL7FY7rwVtQ&feature=related

They left out Axel Rose doing his Davey Jones impersonation.

I can't imagine Elvis without his special moves or Perry for that matter. For me, stage presence is part of the package. Some are naturals, without effort. They just naturally groove to the music and some like Augeri have to work at it. I think that JSS worked at it also and it didn't come off naturally, imo.
