Day Six of our challenge asks me to post a song that makes me want to dance. A lot of songs make me want to dance. I enjoy dancing, for all that I’m not very good at it. 🙂 But the first song to pop into my head is this joyful number from the B-52’s 1989 album “Cosmic Thing”, so that’s my pick for today.
Laura Gallagher
When I was younger and healthier, I’d put this on and turn the volume up and dance around my living room like mad, alone. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pq82YXcQWzk
Peter Alway
I remember this one. I never danced to it, but I sure enjoyed it.
Rob Wynne
I’m pretty sure I nearly wore through my vinyl cope of “Hounds of Love”.
David Weingart
Seeing her perform The Ninth Wave was *amazing*
Annette Spirit Davis
Lauren Cox

I’d be awful at this challenge because I can’t just pick one song to dance to. It seems Yes is the soundtrack to my life and I’m okay with this. https://youtu.be/IYLvYdH06nY

Lauren: I take the point of this challenge to share music. I’m not even trying to pick the single best track for each option. I just ponder the question, see what jumps into my mind, and then share. So don’t feel constrained. 🙂

Excellent. I try to spread the Vulf gospel whenever and wherever I can. ?

I got to see Love and Rockets live back in the late 1990s. Great show.
Amelia Edwards
This one is fun to make small children dance to, all you have to do is give them a bunch of fluttery scarves and let them go…
Marcos Duran
Lots of good choices from the B-52’s catalog. Roam is great and topical!
