Shakin' the Blues Away - Ann Miller

This is the 2nd version of this song that I've uploaded. I realized after I had uploaded the other one that I had cut too much of the song at the beginning and it started too quickly with Ann singing. So I added a few seconds to the beginning to help it have a smoother start. I hope you enjoy!

Will never tire of watching any dance routine by Ms Miller

My all time favourite female dancer of Hollywood's Golden Era. Her Neandertal Man in On The Town along with this and Too Darn Hot, are all showstoppers❤

One of the finest tap numbers EVER done! Dang, that woman could dance!!! Those feet just fly!!! Amazing... Love it! Thank you for uploading this!

People overuse this word but by definition Ann miller was a legend one of a kind it’s been almost 20 years since we lost her but her routines are still being watched

Hardest working dame in Hollywood!⭐️❤️👌🙏

One of the best tap numbers ever put on film! And to do that in a back brace too. Bravo Ms. Miller! X

Ann Miller is the Queen of Dance. She just flies.

[phenomenon]

This is the best dance I have ever seen. As if she is not even human. A goddess.

Not sure how I got here but was in the mood of old tunes and old Hollywood- love this movie and this dancer! One of my favourites to watch! So before Taylor Swift Shake It Off- you had Ann Miller killing it with Shakin' the Blues

One of the best dancers in Hollywood history. Not remembered as she should be amongst the likes of Astaire and Kelly.

She did this number in a back brace. Her husband threw her down the stairs and broke her back. She was a true professional.

[LaurenceDay-dp]

She could allegedly do 500 taps a minute. After watching this number I believe it! In her autobio she illustrates how she dubbed all her taps in time to the steps on the screen. Dubbing is perfect.

Watched Doris Day do that last week. Great interpretation by both.

[clarequilty]

No matter how ho-hum a movie might be, when Ann Miller shows up the party starts. "Hey, somebody hold my beer, I feel like dancin', turn up the music, you guys!"

[dantelara]

Thank you for the upload. my tap dance students love this clip. ive showed 3 classes today

[mayukurasaka]

I’m embarrassed to say this is the first time seeing this. I heard the song on the radio yesterday & Shazam’d it which led me here.

Now off to find the movie.

Edit: checked out your channel…insta-subbed

Thank you so much for this. Have you seen the rehearsal footage of Ann, in dance studio, and recording studio when she recreated this number in 1987 for the "100th Birthday of Hollywood" TV special...at the age of 64? Its here on YT.."Ann Miller Rehearsal and Performance".

She’s a distant cousin. Apparently she got all the talent for the whole fam. 😄👯‍♀️💃🏻
