Arlene Silver and Dick Van Dyke perform a rendition of ‘Everybody Loves a Lover.’

He’s clearly still got it!

Your abilities are not determined by your age. Your vitality determines your quality of life and what you can accomplish with it.

Dick Van Dyke, 96, has enough energy to share a cheerful song and dance with his 50-year-old wife Arlene Silver.
Van Dyke, who is most known for his appearances in “Mary Poppins” and “The Dick Van Dyke Show,” recently sang a duet with his wife in a new video for Silver’s band Arlene & the Vantastix, which also starred Tony Guerrero.

Silver begins the video by performing a Doris Day song in front of a mirror:

“I shouldn’t be worried about nothing. Everyone likes me, and I’ve loved everyone since I fell in love with you.”

“Everybody Loves a Lover,” penned by Robert Allen and Richard Adler, was first sung by Day with Frank DeWol & His Orchestra in 1958.

There have been countless remakes over the years.
The video for Arlene & the Vantastix is bright and colorful, with fruit and floral patterns on the walls and furnishings.

Silver is being followed as she approaches her seated hubby. Van Dyke sings briefly before the two slip across the floor, synchronizing their flawless dance.

The video ends with a flawless transition between the two. Van Dyke and Silver married in 2012 following a six-year relationship.

They celebrated their tenth wedding anniversary on February 29 of this year.

According to Silver, “I remember seeing Dick at the catering table with his bow tie and his big smile.” “He was sitting next to me as soon as I sat down.” ‘Hello, my name is Dick,’ he introduced himself. “The first question I asked him was,’Didn’t you appear in ‘Mary Poppins?'”

Van Dyke divorced his first wife, Margie Willet, after 36 years of marriage in 1984.

He was married for 30 years to Michelle Triola, who died in 2009. Silver is marrying for the first time.
“She’s very mature for her age, and I’m very immature for my age,” Van Dyke says.

Silver revealed that her relationship with her husband began as a friendship.

She was struck by his boyish charm at that point.
“He’s great fun.” He’s not immature in a bad way. “He’s immature in a good way, with a child’s wonder,” she described him.

“He’s just a good time, and he’s open to new experiences.” He isn’t set in his ways at all. We’re both like kids. We both feel like we’re in a second childhood.”

On Silver’s YouTube channel, their duet of “Everybody Loves a Lover” has received over 888,000 views.

“Kudos to this lovely, loving couple for their lovely voices, step work, and vibe.” What a fantastically stylish video!” one commenter wrote

“A phenomenally upbeat song and dance number.” Thank you, Mr. and Mrs. Van Dyke, for brightening my day on this cold winter morning in Michigan,” said another.
