0:00:03 > 0:00:07Hello, I'm TV's Robert Webb and tonight I'm going to tantalise you
0:00:07 > 0:00:11with just a few of pop's greatest dance crazes.
0:00:11 > 0:00:14# ..When the sun shines we shine together
0:00:14 > 0:00:17# Told you I'll be here forever
0:00:17 > 0:00:20# Said I'd always be your friend... #
0:00:20 > 0:00:23Let's not beat around the bush, our next dance craze is raunchy.
0:00:23 > 0:00:26Gene Kelly used to sing in the rain.
0:00:26 > 0:00:29Rihanna just strips semi-naked in the stuff and turns
0:00:29 > 0:00:31the sexy dial up to 11.
0:00:31 > 0:00:34# You can stand under my umbrella
0:00:34 > 0:00:37# Ella-ella-ella, ay-ay-ay... #
0:00:37 > 0:00:40I like the way she does the whole Fred Astaire thing
0:00:40 > 0:00:42with the umbrella, you know.
0:00:42 > 0:00:43She's using it as a prop.
0:00:43 > 0:00:46I want to be that umbrella.
0:00:48 > 0:00:50You don't actually have an umbrella in the club,
0:00:50 > 0:00:53so you have to simulate one.
0:00:53 > 0:00:56You do the whole umbrella on the shoulder, the walk,
0:00:56 > 0:01:01put the umbrella out to there, put the umbrella up to there.
0:01:01 > 0:01:05You can do whatever you want with your imaginary umbrella.
0:01:05 > 0:01:10# Because when the sun shines We'll shine together... #
0:01:10 > 0:01:13All my umbrellas at home are now called Rihannas.
0:01:13 > 0:01:18# ..I'll always be your friend
0:01:18 > 0:01:20# Now that it's raining more than ever... #
0:01:20 > 0:01:23Our next entry is Common People by Pulp,
0:01:23 > 0:01:26a band whose lead singer Jarvis Cocker concocted choreography...
0:01:26 > 0:01:29Hang on, I think I just made up a tongue-twister.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32Cocker concocted choreography. Cocker concocted choreography.
0:01:32 > 0:01:35Cocker concocted choreography. Sorry, got a bit carried away there.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38Anyway, Clocker conclockted choroegty...
0:01:38 > 0:01:41for the song on the day of the shoot itself.
0:01:45 > 0:01:48# You'll never live like common people
0:01:48 > 0:01:51# You'll never do whatever common people do... #
0:01:51 > 0:01:54The first time I'd seen Jarvis, I thought he was like
0:01:54 > 0:01:57a really animated pipe-cleaner.
0:01:59 > 0:02:00King of the geeks.
0:02:00 > 0:02:05He dances so brilliantly, but it's all just little flicks.
0:02:05 > 0:02:07Just little flicks here and a little move there.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11With a few nifty little moves,
0:02:11 > 0:02:14a vintage suit and some oversize bins,
0:02:14 > 0:02:17Jarvis made disco-dancing look cool again.
0:02:17 > 0:02:21I made up a dance for the video of Common People.
0:02:21 > 0:02:24Which I'll show for you if you like.
0:02:24 > 0:02:26# Sing along with the common people
0:02:26 > 0:02:30# Sing along and it might just get you through... #
0:02:30 > 0:02:35Cos that's like you move in through some double doors or suchlike.
0:02:35 > 0:02:37And the stupid things that you do,
0:02:37 > 0:02:41I don't know why we've got the windscreen wiper at that point.
0:02:44 > 0:02:47Because you think that poor is cool.
0:02:47 > 0:02:50I think that's supposed to be like a cool pose.
0:02:54 > 0:02:56I made that one up on the day
0:02:56 > 0:03:01and managed to teach a few of the other extras in the video it.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04But you get the kind of vague idea.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07# You'll never live like common people
0:03:07 > 0:03:10# You'll never do whatever common people do... #
0:03:10 > 0:03:13The dance that they did, you kind of enjoyed seeing it,
0:03:13 > 0:03:16but it wasn't one that you copied when you're dancing to it,
0:03:16 > 0:03:18because you just got so into the actual song.
0:03:19 > 0:03:22I think the indie kids kind of understood
0:03:22 > 0:03:25that that dance was meant ironically.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28And therefore, to actually turn up and do that dance
0:03:28 > 0:03:31would have meant that you didn't get the joke.
0:03:34 > 0:03:38We had this bee in our bonnet about being a pop band and we thought,
0:03:38 > 0:03:42this song has got some socio-political relevance, whatever.
0:03:42 > 0:03:45But it still wouldn't hurt to have a dance routine that went with it.
0:03:45 > 0:03:47I think you can have both things.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50I like that high-concept and low concept.
0:03:50 > 0:03:54So I was very pleased that we had, like, a little dance.
