What songs entice you to dance?

[algernon]

Anything by;


Morecheba
St Germain
Bob Sinclair
Bonobo
Thievery Corporation
Banco de Gaia
Karsh Kale

Also The Reverend Horton Heat plays some good rockabilly, proven to get the kids moving(especially 'Bales of Cocain'). Professor Longhair is popping up in commercials, and plays a fun brand of New Orleans boogie woogie, with 'Tippitina' being one of my faves.


Beck's album 'Guerolito' has good beats. I like 'clap hands' and 'que onda guero?'

Oh, Brazillian music seems to do the trick, also. Check out Caetano Veloso, Seu Jorge, and any of the Gilberto's.

Ciara ft Missy Elliot - 1,2 Step
R Kelly - Home Alone (LOVE to dance to this song!)
Daft Punk is great
If you want to get some dirrty dancing, Next - Too Close
Disco Inferno by 50 cent is a decent one as well.
Ciara - Goodies

I personally like Dr Dre as well, if you play his stuff from the 90s.

Can't forget - California Love by Tupac and Dre.

Songs?
I just need lots of this:

[The Goon]

It's ridiculous, but the song Dragostea Din Tei (The "Numa Numa" song) fills a dance floor like crazy.

When someone told me what that song was about I didn't believe them till I read the lyrics.

Next-Too Close Lyrics

Actually pretty hilarious/gross song.

[Shawnski]

Thanks for the input folks. I actually do have quite a few of the songs listed, but there are certainly some that I knew and liked, just didn't have the name and artist.

Thanks again. Keep 'em coming!

I don't know if this was a fad last year because of the movie "Walk the Line"? But any Cab or wedding dance I attended last year had lots of success with Johnny Cash.

We invented The Verboten Dance in Berlin. My Freddie Mercury routine dazzled the patrons of Senor Frogs one Stampede Week.

[Spuds_Buckley]

The Chicken Dance

Comedian Russell Peters has a bit on his new album that white people have an uncontrollable urge to perform the chicken dance whenever they hear it... so true!

[Frank the Tank]

How about Flight of the Valkyries? Crank it and yell into the microphone "Charlie don't surf!!"

[Winsor_Pilates]

Men Without Hats

[HelloHockeyFans]

Off the top of my head:

All about U - 2Pac

"Every other city we go, every other video... no matter where I go... I see the same..."

Love dancing to that song! And the crowds usually sing in sync to it too!

Lil Jon makes a ton of good tracks also to dance to... gets the crowds a little rowdy though... "Snap Yo Fingers" is a relatively new one that's good to dance to.

Michael Jackson's a must-have, which people have already mentioned.

[I_H8_Crawford]

^^ Get Low by Lil Jon
SKEET SKEET SKEET!

LOL

Thanks a lot. I only recently managed to get Safety dance out of my head.

We can dance if we want to
We can leave your friends behind
'Cause your friends don't dance and if they don't dance
Well they're no friends of mine

[VANFLAMESFAN]

Starship-We Built this city

If you actually like that song (like me ) there is an extended version that is pretty cool.
