Over the weekend, I went to a party to say goodbye to a friend who is leaving to go back to France tomorrow. My favorite part of the party, since there was absolutely no raw food there, was watching everybody dance. And man, did I feel out of touch. I didn't even recognize the music coming out of the iPod, but it did want to dance to do it.
I try to dance to at least one song every morning, just to start my day out on a positive note, but if you look at my iPod, you can tell I was a child of the 70s and 80s.
I'm looking for some dance tune suggestions. Something, you know, from this millenium! Got any suggestions?
CSS, Of Montreal, Los Campesinos!, Gang Gang Dance, Lady Sovereign would be some diverse recommendations. And ditto on M.I.A., she's awesome. Then again, I always think you can't go wrong with some Dead Can Dance or vintage Bowie, but some disagree...
that's such an awesome idea to dance to a song every morning!! i must try that. ray of light by madonna is most excellent, and not just for dancing but for SPINNING too :)

Ghostland Observatory,Goriallaz, Micheal Jackson, Gorillionaires, Marc M., 2 Pac,Bassnectar ...prob a few more maybe some Mariah Carey or Alicia Keys if there was a extra special lady present:)
I love to dance to reggae! Ragga Jungle is also my love. Hm, those are the two that make me move, but any electronic music also pulses through my veins when I hear it.

I dance like a brick. So I try to avoid the whole process :-)
But there are certain songs that I do like to dance to, and they are in this order:
VNV Nation - "The Arena"
Ministry - "Everyday is Halloween"
New Order - "Procession"
The Cult - "She Sells Sanctuary"
Death in Vegas ' "Hands Around My Throat"
Goldfrapp - "Strict Machine"
Anthrax - "Only" (more of a "slam" dance, but what the hell? :-)
and some Radiohead song I can't remember right now off the top of my head.
If it's music and it's on, I'll pretty much find a way to dance to it (and I can dance!). Anything from head bangin' to really getting my groove on and everything in between. :) Sorry, but I can't be more specific than that, cuz it's true! Lately I've been jammin' out to the latest Godsmack cd while working away in the kitchen. Or Jason Mraz. ;)
Thanks for the video! That was cool...I don't have any suggestions (SORRY!) but I love your idea of dancing every morning! I"m gonna do it too, hahaThank youuuuuuu

Yeah, never much thought at the time though as it was late at night and had been about 40 degrees here. Oh well. I am so familiar with the way the Engish and Irish talk that I just assume everyone is the same with the kiwis and Aussies.
