Cara, Irene - Breakdance Lyrics






Well, what's this new feeling coming out of the streets
Everybody's talking 'bout it wherever they meet
Down by the corner, I keep getting the heat
Then my feet start moving to the rhythmic beat

Breakdancing, break out
Breakdancing, break out

They used to do the locomotion, do the jerk and the twist
But there just ain't never been nothing like this
Now popping and locking is a new way of talking
Things will work out for sure spinning 'out on the floor

Breakdancing, break out
Breakdancing, break out

Hearts are pumping, beat is thumping
Love the way you're looking tonight
Fever's rising, no surprises
We won't have the chance to fight

Breakdancing, break out
Breakdancing, break out

Cara, Irene Breakdance Comments
  1. E.... X....

    Ooh sheit do I wanna be one of the dancers on stage! Eighties look and sound at its best! =D

  2. a.... ....

    Now breakdancing is about to be an Olympic sport. How far we have come.

  3. V.... J....

    She looks good in that Red tight outfit 😍

  4. R.... B....

    Irene is so freaking HOT! I had a crush on her back in 84. Dynamic Rock Force, Freddy Freeze!

  5. S.... D....

    Irene Cara should have been a bigger star back in the day.

  6. M.... K....

    What your witnessing here is the BREAKSPLOITATION era. From an underground subculture born out of poverty in the bronx to the white suburbs. Breakin wasn't meant to be on stage with girls and guys in tights, spandex, leather pants, and corny ass music. It was meant for the streets of the inner city... Not Beverly Hills.

    M.... K....

    I'm afraid you don't get to define it. It's what ever the artist wants it to be. And in this case, Irene decides how she like her 'breakdancin'.

    M.... K....

    @David Janowski 😁 Your telling me that I don't get to define my own culture? Tell me something... Would you let me take a dance that's part of your culture, from your country and let me dictate to you what it is? Would you let me define it and throw away the tradition to better suit my needs? NO you wouldn't! YOU DON'T TELL ME HOW TO DEFINE MY CULTURE IDIOT... STAY IN YOUR LANE. You're GodDamn out of pocket.

    M.... K....

    @Mister Keyes In fact, yes I would let you illustrate what ever artistic endeavor you wished in any form you wished, whether I personally liked it or not. It's called artistic freedom. And the moment that it gets restricted, we might as well start burning books.

  7. A.... J....

    THIS album is/was THE SHIT!!!!! Xo

  8. p.... ....

  9. d.... ....

    👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

  40. D.... ....

    God I miss the 80s. The music had so much energy, there was optimism; it was a great time to live. The 2000s SUCK.

    D.... ....

    If you love living with a high rate of violent crime, then yeah, the 80s were great.

    D.... ....

    power word kill I felt safer than I do now.

    D.... ....

    yeah we didn't have 911, any war, Bush, or Clintons , etc. Just mini-skirts, fat boards, 80's alternative, and a million clothing brands you had to keep up with. Good times.

    D.... ....

    Indeed the 2000's suck badly

  41. M.... C....

    excelente tema de break ochentero, y el video buenisimo de culto. gracias
