Nadia’s Got the Beat! (1:51)
Nadia’s first little dance video. –by Louanne and Nadia (Added May 28, 2008)
NOTE: Apparently the Go Gos believe that a few dozen people watching our daughter jumping around to the tune “We Got the Beat” will cause them to lose their copyright, and cause their record sales to plummet. Consequently, YouTube was forced to remove the sound from the video. Whew! Potential crises averted.
NOTE to the NOTE: It looks like the record industry has gotten smart. After many months the sound is back, but now you’ll see small ads on it and other videos that allow you to buy the song from Amazon or iTunes.
