Song You Can't Resist Dancing To

Wooly Bully by Sam the Sham and the Pharoahs
My Sharona by the Knack
Numerous B-52s songs!

Hmmm…lots of the above, and Spirit of the West’s “Home for a Rest” and “The Old Sod”, Veruca Salt’s “Seether”, and Squirrel Nut Zippers’ “Good Enough for Granddad” (which is playing right now on CDNow Radio!).

There’re lots more, but I’m drawing a blank.

I just can’t help getting jiggy with it when I hear:

Debaser - The Pixies
Song 2 - Blur
Like a Prayer - Madonna
Up With People! - Lambchop
Celebrity Skin - Hole
My Favourite Game - The Cardigans
Kids in America - Kim Wilde
Need You Tonight - INXS
Sweet Dreams - Eurythmics
Unfinished Sympathy - Massive Attack
Sweet Child o’ Mine - Guns 'n Roses
Limp - Fiona Apple

Plus another vote for “numerous B-52’s songs”, the most likely to get my booty shakin’ being My Own Private Idaho, Dance This Mess Around, Love Shack, Channel Z and the legendary Rock Lobster.

Songs that truly make me dance:

“Matador” by Fabulosos Cadillacs- For those who dont know it, this is a rock group, from Chile or Argentina(can’t remember where).

Mostly any ska song.

For slow dancing, some reggae from Bob Marley.

“Chocolate Salty Balls”

Fly Me to The Moon, I think written by Bart Howard, performed by Old Blue Eyes himself :wink:

[sup]I hate myself for what I am about to say[/sup]Cosmic Girl by Jamiroquai

I believe that is “Salty Chocolate Balls”…suck 'em!

Man, so many have been named here! Buuuut, a couple more:

“Body Movin’”, Beastie Boys
“These Thoughts Fall Into My Mind”, Bucketheads
“Virtual Insanity”, Jamiroquai
“Jump Around”, House of Pain
“Brown Sugar”, “Miss You”, “Bitch” Rolling Stones

Jeez, I could go on forever. I like to dance.

Yet another vote for You Spin Me Round (Like a Record Baby) by Dead or Alive

plus:
Stigmata - Ministry
She Sells Sanctuary - The Cult (I have a theory that anyone will get up and dance to this)
Track X - Sheep On Drugs
Head Like a Hole - NIN
Poison - The Prodigy
Dominion - The Sisters Of Mercy
Vision Thing - The Sisters Of Mercy
and other classics from goth/alternative nites at yer local small town club, about 5 years ago.

and also
Leave Home - the Chemical Brothers
Satan - Orbital
lastly any number of huge drum ‘n’ bass tracks from round about 1997 that I don’t know the names of.

Stayin’ Alive - BeeGees
You’re The One That I Want - From “Grease” soundtrack
Cotton-Eyed Joe - ?
Paradise By The Dashboard Light - Meatloaf
Wild Child - Iggy Pop (?)
100% Pure Love - Crystal Waters
Faded - Soul Decision
Smooth - Rob Thomas and Santana (we just took Latin dance lessons - I love dancing to anything with a Latin beat now)

[sub]Hot Stuff - Donna Summer[/sub]

Embarassing but true.

Another embarrassing but true: “Footloose” by Kenny Loggins. Not a good song, but Lord it makes me twitch. 'Specially the “Ev’rybody cut, ev’rybody cut, <bam bam> ev’rybody cut, ev’rybody cut <bam bam>” thing as it winds to the climax.

Please, shoot me now.

Me too! But only in the privacy of my own home, and sadly, I dance just like Craig Kilborn does whenever Belinda Carlyle is on his show, i. e., tall white guy with no rhythm.

Sir

In fact, it’s time for a new sig…

Keel Row.

"Pretty Woman".

I love just about anything by Roy Orbison, but when I hear that song I just HAVE to dance, even if it is down the aisles while grocery shopping. My store plays the BEST music!
