Actually I shot this video. Towa was just beside me and grabbing radio casette player. We spent a groovy day at wall street and Brooklyn. Then half year later I made " groove is in the heart"video.Thanks.

@@HolyRollerTV we disagree. so we just have to agree to disagree. i've got better things to do that keep responding to you. Deeelite were innovative. end of.

Deee-Lite made music fun! Letting people on the streets vibe along with them! They were true artists! They truly embraced the "world clique", if you will!! I'd love to see more groups like them come out these days!

Such a good Singer. Back when I was 16, my first Hippy girlfriends said, "You look like Deelite"!! Groove is in the Heart, first came out. Years later, I met Lady Miss Kier in Chicago at, "Big Sexy Bass" a Rave Party and I told Her. She hugged Me and said, "I can see that"!!

this is beautiful. passersby joining in the jam, feeling the beat and the vibe. always, deeelite embodied a welcoming energy of nothing but love. true artists, born for light. there will never be another deee lite, and no one can hold a candle to their music nor their utter commitment to acceptance and tolerance

Man what a goddess! Guy comes in talking shit and she's just like, "let's see it!" Then they both start dancing.

Leave it to a black guy to walk up, hurl an insult at you, then do their "LOOK AT ME, LOOK AT ME, EVERYBODY LOOK AT ME" they do everywhere they go.

If I’m having a crappy day, I just need to watch this to lift my mood.

My God! For all the times I've viewed this video, how the hell did I not recognize the channel name? Hiroyuki Nakano, the brilliant mind behind the truly iconic "Groove is in the Heart" video! I need to be selfish for a moment and take this opportunity to tell you how big an influence this video had on me. My apologies if it's lengthy. I grew up a little gay boy in northwestern Wisconsin. Far from anything or anyone I could relate to as I entered my teens. I was eleven the first time I saw the Lady Miss KIer appear on the black screen, the words "Faux Fur" above her to make a statement they were passionate about. Like most kids, my mother would find me glued to the television only to tell me for the one hundredth time it would ruin my eyes. With that first explosion of colour and the Lady atop her little go-go box, I was transfixed. And as the camera pushed forward through the dancers, I thought to myself "That's where I belong." Shortly thereafter, I'd gone to my public library and pulled all of the articles on Deee-Lite I could. A Newsweek article described Deee-Lite's lead singer as "a woman impersonating a drag queen." I had no idea what that was, so I asked my mother. She answered honestly and she's regretted it ever since. Upon graduating high school, I reinvented myself entirely with my own drag persona and set out to find the glitterati, those wonderful midnight children from that beautifully trippy music video. I've now been a drag performer for *coughs* twenty-six years and "Groove is in the Heart" is my signature song. Whenever I've performed the song in nightclubs, I've used projected visuals similar to the mesmerizing backgrounds of your video. In my quest for all things Deee-Lite, I knew your name well and in something of a tribute years later, I named one of my drag daughters after you (her name was Kitanah Kim Nakano). Thank you so much for giving so many of us such a vivid time capsule of sorts. The song, while a classic on its own, is almost impossible to listen to without having it evoke bright and beautiful memories of the video you directed instantly flooding the mind. I highly doubt I'm the only kid out there who saw it as a form of escapism whenever they watched it back then. To us, "Groove is in the Heart" was more than just a music video in heavy rotation on MTV - it was a lifeline and one that I'm personally forever grateful for. xoxox Miss Dee-Lovely

She has the most beautiful voice, they are so incredibly talented ❤

Tik Tok could never !

I could watch this woman dance all day.

That is just so cute.

I could watch this over and over! Such happy vibes!!

Ngl I have such a crush on Dmitry like he's the type of guy I'd love to have as a boyfriend. Hes quirky, colorful, silly, and creative af

This is such a cute fun video of Dee-Lite vibing with everyday people, especially loved seeing them jaming with the neighborhood kids, just having good clean fun with nothing but positive vibes. Definitely something that's missing in today's crazy world. I'm definitely generation x hear at 56 and Dee-lite was definitely a big part of my life's sound track in my early 20's from clubbing to raving and chilling at home and in the park. Those were the best times! 😊

I ♥️ love her smile 😊

It was a down-to-earth video- LOVED IT!!!

i just wanna be there and dance... hahaha

Thanx for posting this rear footage. It's fun to see Lady Kier en Dmitri have fun with the people on the street. Funckadelic!

This is so sweet, so damn sweet.

SO INNOCENT.

Damn, Lady Miss Keir really is so flawless, and that voice was f hers isn’t ‘1 hit wonder” good.. its actually skilled, soulful, unique and beautiful ❣️🙌🏽🙌🏽

Loved watching this blast from the past. Also fascinated watching when the camera meant something different to passersby. A little apprehensive to shine in front of it, now these days, cameras in public is a almost the norm.

this is just amazing! loved every single sec of it.

A deeelovely day. Thank you for sharing this with us. Peace and love

Love this track! Loved Deee-Lite since the beginning. Lady Miss Kier with the ever beautiful voice. Thank you so much for sharing! Never understood why they were considered a one hit wonder cuz far as I knew they had catalogues of music in their discography. Was fortunate and happened to be out at a club in Vail and DJ Dimitri was spinning that night. It was amazingly euphoric and the place was packed with the best dance energy. Such incredibly good times. 😌💙🖤✨

I didnt find out about them until the late 90s.i fell in love instantly.

What an amazing woman the way she handled that crack head saying she couldn't dance...

wonderful thanx🤩

such a beautiful energy

This is absolutely amazing! I could watch this over and over....LOVE!

Still to this day there will never be a group this mesmerizing and original and still sound as new as the day they recorded it.😍😎✌💖💞

@laartwork Lady Kier was vibing she was on the runways, made her own outfits, and was an inspiration to a video game called Space Channel 5, which she did not get credit for.

Oh! they are so Fabulous!

They were like the first youtubers!

Oh man this is so Cool! I was and still am a great fan of deee lite. That vibe that started late 80’s and became really predominant in the 90’s you still feel in this video and it was real. We need some of that now a days. So much hate and polarization now a days. In the 90’s it felt like the future is good the future is bright, we had harmony love and peace.

I love this! Video captures such a fleeting but golden moment in time. What is that song!?

Deee-Lite is the perfect example of being INSPIRED by classic music and style and updating it for the time they're in, not just blatantly ripping off or sampling without any understanding of the source.

What a wonderful video!

People dancing and having a good time like this on the streets would have the cops called on them in 2022 because some angry person would get offended by the fun being had. People just cant have any fun of any kind anymore because they gave up on freedom for safe spaces that aren’t safe. At least I was able to have fun when I was young without fear of harm. Deee-Lite and Lady Kier was so talented and fearless and it really showed through their music.

i love this group!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you!!! That was touching to tears! Still wiping... ^_^ LOVE!

I remember old people hating Groove is in the Heart because it was made up of all samples and no actual original tracks by real musicians. So old people complaining about "today's music" is the one thing that never changes.

This made my day. What a treasure. It transported me.

Fantástico esse vídeo da memória e do processo criativo dessa banda.

Something so Awesome bout this VDO !

So sweet & lovely!!

This was amazing to see….I was the same age as some of those kids in the video…wearing my Guess overalls in nyc! A time capsule

Amazing Perfomance....She is a Queennnn...Brazilians Love You

It's crazy how some artists are ahead of everyone else.

this reminds me of the time I saw the dance group Electric Boogaloo appearance on Soul Train, back in 1979....it's very nostalgic. Only thing missing was ReRun dancing in the background with them.. lol Those kids had no idea, who they were dancing with, but they were having the time of their life.

THIS IS awesome!!!! thanks for posting and thanx for taping!!!! Love this woman!!!!

This is so fun and what a groove! The positivity is off the charts

Pure Love in creative form. Thank you.

That bass though...Nice!!!

Wow. Just wow. What an incredible piece of video. And what a time to be alive. I have to say ... Seeing Dmitri with his hair out ... he looks like Gene Simmons' long lost brother!

That was soo awesome

Thank you. Such a fun video - so free, none of the tension and unpleasantness so common today. Groove is in the Heart was the first music video I ever watched (that or that Stacy Q song, and "Sara" by Jefferson Starship).

What an awesome video!!! Brings back such great memories! Thanks so much for uploading and sharing it with us.

Timeless!!! love this

I can't find this song anywhere online. A lyrics search says it's called "Turn it Up" but I cant find audio of it anywhere except for this video.

I am very grateful for this post! A historic view to the video: In 1989, after an unprecedented ~15-year rise, the New York real estate prices were smashed down to the ground. Nonetheless, Housing companies still were widely unregulated and left buildings unmaintained, speculating that there will come some opportunistic investors with pockets full of money. That created some unrest among those populating less settled areas of NYC and sparked a certain 'urban' spirit to reclaim the streets and fill them with self-determined live. Some of the communities' urban politics from the 1970/1980 years were still immanent (i.e. low regulation to run a business or a relatively liberal drug policy) and thus attracted young people from all over the world ('the melting pot'). The New York art scene, nurtured from universities and art schools, (once again) had to overcome white and male predominance but (contrary to late 1960's) there were icons to follow and to inherit. Just recall underground movements that are part of pop culture today: "NY Hardcore" spread everywhere, the House music scene grew strong, the Harings and Basquiats searched the spotlight. At last, in my opinion with a strong influence, the AIDS experience shocked the society thoroughly and put established outlooks under question. What is safe when the most intimate form of human behavior isn't? In the end, a strong and appealing "Let's challenge boundaries" mindset could evolve, right? It's an innocent time, viewed from the present, but in first place, it is some real and human way to live your life the way you feel is good and justified.

Love her
