All singing, all dancing

Meaning

Full of vervevɜːv] and vitality; more recently - with many features [ˈfiːtʃə] or attributes. əˈtrɪbjuːt]

Origin

From the advertising 【ˈædvəˌtaɪzɪŋ] posters used to promote the 1929 film Broadway ˈbrɔːdˌweɪ] Melody (m l -d ) - the first musical film - which proclaimed prəˈkleɪm] it to be 'All talking All singing All dancing'.

That was a literal description of the film, but was also intended to suggest a sense of vitality and excitement that the phrase is now used to convey. kənˈveɪ]

In more recent years the term has been applied to high-tech equipment, computers, cars etc. in order to draw attention to their abundant [əˈbʌndənt] features; for example, this from The Daily Telegraph, November 1995:

"Satellites as small as a box of cornflakes can be launched at little cost by riding piggyback with larger satellites. A handful of these 'microsatellites' would be used instead of a single all-singing all-dancing 'platform'  [ˈplætfɔːm]  bristling (br s l) . with instruments."
