Napoleon Dynamite is just cool.

The latest French dance craze that started out in a Paris club. Most clips are underground as the style is still mostly on the streets.
6. Breakdance--Junior
Junior is an outstanding French breakdancer - incredible upper body strength.
7. The Charleston
The music in this video is a modern adaptation of a jazz song and some scenes are lifted from the modern film The Great Gatsby, but it does include some great footage of the dance that virtually spawned the idea of modern dance.
8. Madonna
One of Madonna’s best music videos was made for her song Holiday. This is her performance live on Solid Gold. Madonna has been a constant trend-setter for mainstream dance.
9. Jamiroquai
Jamiroquai’s unique dancing style makes him an ideal candidate for this list. Great dancer AND a great singer. Here is his Virtual Insanity.
10. Michael Jackson
No list of dancing would be complete without at least one entry by Michael Jackson. Here is his Smooth Criminal.
