Wigging Out
To compensate, or at least provide light relief, from serious threads how about a top ten 'wig out' list? What will get you on the dance floor (often the more cliched the better)
(can include heavy bopping or rocking but no light jiggling). Basically I'm looking for rour best ever dancing-like-you-have-no-vertebrae tunes....
Superstition Stevie Wonder
Teenage Kicks The Undertones
Tainted Love Softcell
One way or another Blondie
Aerosmith/Run DMC Walk this way
Rock Star Cyprus Hill
Dee Lite Groove is in the Heart
Just Radiohead
Beat it Michael Jackson
Sweet child o mine Guns and Roses

*Embarrased, creeps out and hopes that nobody noticed her lack of responses...*
fergal
Okay so I put 2 responses to my own post. Now I definitely have to creep out. Jesus. The first one wouldn't work you see and then I... oh you all know how it works.
Mykle
It's probably just the weather Fergal, there have been very few posts to any thread recently. My dancing days are probably over but were more influenced by alcohol intake than musical tastes but I could dance to almost anything with a beat (except Rap) if I was in the mood.
Emma
'Don't you leave me this way'
fergal
Ahh, Emma a classic that I can't believe I missed out of my list.
Liana
What a fool believes, doobie brothers (ahem)
tainted love, soft cell (is there anyone alive who wont wig out to this?)
thats entertainment, jam
shiny happy people/end of the world REM
and really, just about anything if I'm very drunk... if I'm not very drunk, then I'm not usually in a club I must admit... a bit too old for this malarkey these days. I had a terribly embarrassing time a few years ago when the wamdue project's king of my castle would have every nerve and bone in my body leaping around.

CannonBall, The Breeders
BlockRocking Beat, Chemical Brothers

martin_t

Liana
I cant have g&t - i loathe gin with a passion mate, and i'd still be up there for the rem one anyway...
Rachel

Debasser, The Pixies
The Impression That I Get, The Mighty Mighty Bosstones
Temple of Love, Sisters of Mercy
Going Underground, The Jam
pretty much anything by The Pogues
The Passenger, Iggy Pop
pretty much anything by Blondie
some of Andrew's
I had a very bad experience on a dancefloor a few years ago and have barely been able to drag myself back since, I saw a mirror.
Liana
Passenger!!! Yes!!
fergal
The Pogues are good for jolly arm movements I find, and anything that involves general marching and neck twists is also good.
Dance mat you say Rachel...?
