Fred Astaire
Fred Astaire (born Frederick Austerlitz; May 10, 1899 – June 22, 1987) was an American dancer, singer, actor, choreographer, musician, and television presenter.
His stage and subsequent film and television careers spanned a total of 76 years, during which he made 31 musical films and several award-winning television specials and issued numerous recordings. He was named the fifth Greatest Male Star of Old Hollywood by the American Film Institute. As a dancer, he is best remembered for his sense of rhythm, his legendary perfectionism, and as the dancing partner and on-screen romantic interest of Ginger Rogers, with whom he co-starred in a series of ten Hollywood musicals which transformed the genre.
Gene Kelly, another major innovator in filmed dance, said that "the history of dance on film begins with Astaire." Beyond film and television, many noted dancers and choreographers, including Rudolf Nureyev, Sammy Davis, Jr., Michael Jackson, Gregory Hines, Mikhail Baryshnikov, George Balanchine, Jerome Robbins, and Madhuri Dixit, also acknowledged his importance and influence. Astaire ranks as the fifth greatest male star of Classic Hollywood cinema in AFI's 100 Years...100 Stars.

Fred Astaire
by: MoI thought that nothing could help
To avoid depressions inside me
Fatalistic words passed my mind
Fear and hate and darkness around me
You came, you carefull tried
Not to show your wonders about me
Many talks, they turned step by step
Into novels, all made to change me
Just a summer love affair
Made me feel like Fred Astaire
Jumping up and up and flyin' around
Your love lifts me off the ground
I thought that nothing could help
To avoid depressions inside me
Many talks, they turned step by step
Into novels, all made to change me
Just a summer love affair
Made me feel like Fred Astaire
Jumping up and up and flyin' around
