Dear Stefan & Ms. Maha...
The song and the video combine an explosion of rainbow colors, nostalgic and high-energy music, and the gleeful, rejuvenating sight of 'grown-ups' dancing up a storm and having tons of fun as they liberate the inner child within them.
In your own uniquely creative way you've brought back something that I believe Chubby Checkers' introduction of the original 'Twist' back in the 60's gave to the world, and that is the simple happiness that people enjoy when they get TOGETHER on the dance floor to move & groove to the music.
Thanks for reminding us what the 'good times' can really mean!
Sincerely,
LOREN (a.k.a. 'bluage') Dear Loren, first of all: SOOOOO GOOD TO HEAR FROM YOU !!! And thanks a bunch for your brilliant description of what I was hoping to capture with the song and video: Sheer joy, even in sad and dangerous times like these - and be it only for some moments. But no-one good put this into words better than you, that's for sure !!! When I had planned to 'inrtegrate' friends in that video I asked about 120 people if they would like to get in on it: - 43 of them thought that this was an indecent proposal - 30 of them are ever since convinced that I've finally gone totally bananas - 19 of them would have liked to join but where (partly by forcible means!) held back by their partners ('Do you really want to make complete fools of us?') - 7 of them had just run out of booze - 6 of them didn't get the picture at all ('What the heck is he talking about?) - 5 of them have me on their black list anyway, so my e-mail went into their spam directory - 2 of them claimed that they didn't know me. But 8 of them returned the videos I used and many of those 'cowars' said afterwards, ' Oh so nice, next time I'll be in on everything you do' - they just wait and see, haha ! Back to seriousness, dear friend: Thanks a lot for your wonderfil comment - loved it so much! Take care and stay safe, Stefan

What Floyd said!
This is an award winner as far as I'm concerned. Especially when considering the Covid crisis. Hi Don, wow, thanks a lot for this very kind comment. Cheers, Stefan

Stefan,
Well, that was lot of fun!!! Terrific wrtie—really creative . . . and that sax solo just kills. Great vocal, but it’s those awesome backing vocals that put this over the top for me. How can this not make you laugh and smile?
I can’t imagine the effort it takes to put together a video like this—outstanding stuff! Very impressive.
My best regards to all involved,
Deej

As always a treat. Very entertaining clip and the song is "infectious" (not sure if the vaccine works for it).
Enjoyed the music and video - and the credits!
Peter Hi Peter, thanks a lot for your kind words - we really appreciate them. And let me tell you: There is no vaccine working for the Twist - it's been there for more than 60 years and if it's still infectuous ... Take care, Stefan

Hallo Stefan.
This is brilliant . It put a big smile on my face, vielen dank to you and your friends for giving me some comic relief from the depressing times we find ourselves in. You should be in Hollywood!

Gary. Hi Gary, thanks a lot for your kind words - I'm glad the song and the video did what they were supposed to do: Make people feel better (at least for a while). All the best to you and stay safe, Stefan

Hi Scott,
yeah, I think that's what we are: Freunde und Brüder im Geiste!
Thanks a lot for your very kind review - I think that if I were to write one myself it might read pretty much the same ;-))))))).
Yes, it seems to have become a rule that my closings are getting quite ... eh ... sprawling, but let me tell you: You ain't seen nothing yet ...
All the best to you and the OBOB (sorry, had to do that at least onece...)
Stefan

So glad you're back. After I sat down, I realized it was like 7 minutes. Thanks for the workout!! Hi Marty, .... and you are still one of my favorite commentators  Thanks a bunch for yor great comment - it makes me happy to read that you enjoyed 'the show.' . Take good care and stay safe, Stefan

Stefan, Good to see you back in action! Wonderful and entertaining tune you cooked with Maha. Listens very well. I deeply respect yours and Mahas dedication to music and fun. Thank you for sharing, Misha. P.S. Love your never ending collection of props Dear Misha, thanks a lot for your very kind comment on our song / video. It took a while (I actually had to turn 65) until I found out that music combined with fun is (as the Brits say) my cup of tea. But while my kind of humor is mostly pretty rough yours is always rather sophisticated, so your stuff is always admirable. Stay safe, Stefan

Hi Stefan,
I enjoyed your twisting song a lot.
I heard it a little while before it came in the forum.
Your videos are always so funny and clever made!
And you know what? The virus is going away right now, so twisting helps.
In spite i cannot come to Germany. Forbidden for us...
I was amazed, but very happy seeing Maha do a lot of twisting in the movie.
So good she could. And it worked well for your production.
As I said at the beginning, I enjoyed it a lot, as I enjoy all your productions
Have a very nice day
Hans

Fantastic video and a good song, too! Kept me thoroughly entertained. Great to see you're not resting on your laurels. Keep it up! Thanks a lot for your very kind words, Tunemonger. Although I don't really think I got any laurels to rest on, I will try my best to come up with more stuff in the course of the coming months. Stay safe, Stefan

Seriously: Thank you so much for your very kind words - we always appreciate your comments a lot. Hopethat both of you are alive and kicking - take good care of each other. All the best, Stefan

Dear Hans, yes, you are right, no other explanation possible: Maha and our friends just twisted not only the virus blues but the virus itself away - the power of (even second or third class) music seems to be immense Maha and I are glad that you enjoyed the video - thanks a bunch for your uplifting words. Take care (and regards to Marijke) Stefan
