I don't post much here in OT, but I'd probably get flamed to death asking this question on most car forums, and GRM always seems more tolerant of random wierdness, so here goes:
During a recent discussion about music with a co-worker, it somehow worked its way into a bet that I couldn't come up with 100 rock songs that use the words "dance" or "dancing." I have no idea how the conversation got to that bet, but of course I can't turn it down.
It also came with the caveat that I couldn't use search engines (Google, etc) to find them, but could solicit suggestions from other people (he didn't specify if they were people I personally knew or not )
So that's it....I need rock songs that use those words in the song. By rock I mean.....rock, metal, punk, etc. I cannot use country (too easy), jazz (too easy), pop/dance/electronic (way too easy) or anything other than music that would be defined as "rock".
So.....if any pop into your mind, post em up
Artist
Song
Line.
So I'll start here:
-
Rise Against
But Tonight We Dance
"So say you'll stay and dance with me tonight.."
-
The Hooters
And We Danced
"And we danced, on the wave of the ocean romance..."
-
Michael Penn
Someone to Dance With
"Maybe she's just looking for someone to dance with"
-
Men Without Hats
Safety Dance
"We can dance if we want to....
GO!
or flame me.

Frank Zappa, Disco boy

If Safety Dance is rock and not pop, you'd have to take Dance Hall Days by Wang Chung too.
