A couple of weeks ago, Oprah launched her own Oprah Channel on YouTube.com. As a part of the launch, she used an entire episode of her TV show to talk about how much YouTube now impacts our culture. Guests on the episode included owners Chad Hurley and Steve Chen. In case you missed it, the show also included a segment on the UK couple that recreated the entire dance scene finale from “Dirty Dancing” as their first wedding dance. Their video became an Internet phenomena with almost 3 million views. I won’t spoil what happened when the couple performed the dance again live on the show, but you may want to check it out online. It just goes to show the power of music from Dirty Dancing.
As a follow-up to that, I wanted to share another couple’s very special first dance. This comes courtesy of Jimmy Traina at SI.com’s Extra Mustard: Hot Clicks. (Jimmy, it appears we love the same type of touching moments.)
We’re still having trouble embedding videos here on The Soundboard, so you’ll have to go to Extra Mustard: Hot Clicks and scroll down to the bottom of the page where it says “They’ll Always Remember Their First Dance.”
If only my wife and I had thought of this before we got married. Oh well.
Thanks again, Jimmy.
