One Fan's YouTube Dance Pushes Bon Jovi Classic Back Onto Hot 100.

[dipsydoodle]

The epic dance moves, lip-synching madness and air guitar of sports fan Jeremy Fry went viral in 2009. This month, however — four years later — they went mega-viral.

Just how popular have Fry's moves been lately? Popular enough to catapult the Bon Jovi classic "Livin' on a Prayer" back onto the Billboard Hot 100 more than 25 years after its original release.

In 1987, Bon Jovi's classic anthem topped the Billboard charts for four consecutive weeks. Then in 2009, Fry did the song justice when the Boston Celtics blared it during a break in the action at a home game. Video of his antics, uploaded to YouTube four years ago, have since been watched more than 5 million times.

Then on Oct. 17 of this year, a user named Jose Duran re-uploaded the clip to his own YouTube channel, adding the title "One Man Dances Like Nobody's Watching While Everyone Is — He'll Crack You Up!"

In one month, that upload (above) has been watched more than 12 million times and Liked on Facebook more than 1.7 million times. The renewed interest has landed "Livin' on a Prayer" the number 25 spot in last week's Billboard Hot 100 chart, postdated Nov. 23.

1. I know it happened with "Stand By Me", I can't think of another one

King's record went to No. 1 on the R&B charts[4] and was a Top Ten hit on the U.S. charts twice—in its original release in 1961, when it peaked at No. 4, and a 1986 re-release coinciding with its use as the theme song for the movie of the same name following its appearance in the film, when it peaked at No. 9, and also in an advertisement for Levi Jeans. It also reached No. 1 on the UK Singles Chart in 1987 after its re-release, mostly because of the jeans spot, originally reaching No. 27 on its first release.

5. pretty fantastic stuff is it not, these guys are pretty mental and also have a neo nazi contingent

But as a spectacle its amazing to watch, another immense one is to see the crowd singing walk on at celtic park when they played barcelona after the madrid bombings.
