This video absolutely freaks me out, but what do you expect with Christopher Walken? I didn't know the man even danced, but I recall that when a reader posted the video in the comments not long ago, they added that Walken was once a dancer. Indeed, Wikipedia notes that "Walken initially trained as a dancer at the Washington Dance Studio before moving on to dramatic stage roles and then film."
And what a song to make the man move his bones! Yes, there are stunt doubles in there, but most of the hoofing is done by Walken himself.
I had forgotten who did that song, which really is a toe-tapper, so I looked it up, finding that it was done in 1974 by Redbone, the first Native American band to have a big hit (this song went to the top 4 on Billboard). Here's a live performance of "Come and Get Your Love", written by two of the band members, Pat and Lolly Vegas (Lolly is the lead singer, Pat on bass). Oddly, it starts with 45 seconds of an Indian dance. The lyrics are strange and enigmatic, but the tune and performance are great, which of course is why Walken danced to it.
