... I like dancing anyway so don't usually need much encouragement but even when I'm not really in the mood there are some songs that I just have to get up and dance to. Mine include Brown Sugar (The Stones) and I Travel (Simple Minds) but there's quite a few others. What about you?

I'm almost the first one dancing on the floor espacially if they put any r&b song that I really like. I can dance almost all night except if they put more then 20min of techno.

lol - yes I can imagine that would be a bit tiring. Personally I'm not sure if I would know how to dance to techno but then I guess at my age I'm not expected to anyway!

It usually takes a drink or two to get on the dance floor. LOL I LOVE the song You Dropped A Bomb On Me.

Very rare to get me in a disco let alone on the dance floor, but if they play 80s music, which is very rare now at discos, I hate the modern stuff. Madonna, Abba (ok stop laughing), pop music mainly, although just as well you would laugh if I got on the dance floor, have no sense of co-ordination LOL

Although I did have a bit of a smile at Abba the fact is we ALL get up and dance when they come on - at least you admit to it!

For Once In My Life by Stevie Wonder will always get me up and I always swore if I married my longterm partner this would be our first song!! I love all the old 80's and when I was young I used to go to Camden palais on Sixties night and dance like a maniac all night. When I go to parties I usually take over the music. My friends 50th was going a bit slow, then I raided her music and it did get the party rolling. Some nights I will put on the earphones and have a party on my own!!! Sad!!!

Oh I often have a party to myself! Can't imagine what the people in the flat above must think when they hear me singing along - well, you know what it's like when you're wearing headphones!! There was a lot of good stuff to dance to in the eighties as well. I'll dance to anything really!

There are many songs that can get me out on the dance floor. Just about any song with a good beat can get me out on the floor dancing with my friends if I'm in the mood for dancing. I enjoy I nice slow romantic dance once in a while too though.

Oh I'm not good with slow dancing - I'm too clumsy and usually trample all over my partners feet which isn't that romantic!

Some people are easier to dance with than others. There are a few that I can dance well with, and a few that I can't. If I try to dance with others, they will have to take their chances.

I can think of three that will get me on the floor: "You Shook Me All Night Long" -- AC/DC "Turbo Lover" -- Judas Priest "She Sells Sanctuary" -- The Cult

After reading your discussions and think that I can´t remember the last time I went out an dance. Since my son birth me and my wife don´t go out much so, I can´t even remember what makes me jump to the dance floor.

Praise You by Fatboy Slim is my ultimate dance music track. The song totally begs you to dance to it. Nothing better than being at a club on a packed dance floor dancing to this song. Everyone seems to get so happy when this song comes on.

Ah the 70's - it may have been the decade that good taste forgot but it's given us some great tunes!
