It's so weird that it was 10 years ago. Things really haven't changed that much from the late 1990s to today.

lol, I used to sport cargo khakis religiously about 7-8 years ago. Looking back now they look so ridiculous. Moreover, I can't believe this commercial is actually 10 years old! One minute you're 17, next minute you're 27. It's crazy how quickly time flies. At least jeans never go out of style!

I agree. Other than advances in technology, most of the styles,fashions and behaviors from the mid 90's until now have pretty much remained the same.

to reply to the italian-- It is a tv commercial from the popular american clothing store The Gap. The dance is called swing, and originally came from the 1940s and 50s, and there was a revival in popularity of swing music and dancing in the 1990s.

it is "jump jive and wail" by louie prima. brian setzer also does a more modern, rock n roll version of it. it's neat.
To be more accurate ... ( 1 month ago by hilaryutting)
To be more accurate, the dance is called Lindy Hop, and originated in the 1930's in the Savoy Ballroom in New York, in America. Type 'Lindy Hop' into any You Tube search or other search engine and you'll find loads of stuff about it. Danced mainly to Big Band swing music - Glenn Miller, etc, but also Boogie Woogie (Louis Jordan etc) and Jump Jive music - the music in the Gap commercial was Jump Jive And Wail by Louis Prima.
Learn to Lindy Hop if you can - it's a brilliant dance! Hilary
