I still cannot quite work out the origins and meaning of this song. If it was safe for Tony Soprano to dance this to tune it was safe for anyone.
Men without hats the safety dance the collection movie#
The moment came in that shockingly average movie The Mexican when gay hitman James Gandolfini found himself in a scene dancing the song while some scrawny guy he and Julia Roberts just picked up. It wasn’t until a few years ago that I finally accepted that I loved this song. For a group of individuals to place so much stock and importance in dancing suggests either a fever mind of mixed up priorities or lots of drugs having a proactive affect. Or just maybe it was the impending threat and subsequent fear of nuclear destruction that installed a devil may care attitude in people and caused them to do peculiar things. Perhaps the drugs of the seventies mixed with the wealth of the eighties were a toxic combination too weird to explain and dismiss at the time. Technology was finally (just about) happening and people began (occasionally) adopting the look of science fiction.
MEN WITHOUT HATS – THE SAFETY DANCE (STATIK RECORDS)Īt times the eighties seem like the weirdest point in history.
