Personally I HATE to dance and I’m not into the whole dance music scene but I do love rock songs that make you shake your hips as if you were on the dance floor. :dance: Not that I do that by the way! :D :ohmy: I think however that it’s really difficult to make a song that remains true to the rock guitar but still has that swing that makes you move. I only know a few of them and I’m thinking about making a CD full of those! I would love to see someone that works on a nightclub put those songs there and see if people dig it. :evil: Anyway please try and list rock n’ roll songs that have a dance aspect to it as I said before. Here’s what I got so far:

U2 – Desire
U2 – Two Hearts Beat As One (best example of what I want)
U2 – Mysterious Ways
The Rolling Stones – Dance (Pt.1)
The Rolling Stones – Heartbreaker
The Rolling Stones – Undercover Of The Night
The Rolling Stones – Miss You (even though I don’t like this song much)
AC/DC – Put The Finger On You
AC/DC – Girl’s Got Rhythm
Bruce Springsteen – Ramrod
Bruce Springsteen – Cover Me
Bruce Springsteen – Dancing In The Dark (but the live punk rock version of this song not the horrible original version)
Chuck Berry – You Never Can Tell
Chuck Berry – No Particular Place To Go
Chuck Berry – Johnny B. Goode
Aerosmith – Rag Doll
Kiss – Do You Remember Rock N’ Roll Radio (Ramones cover)

PS: The reason why I put the Adam icon is because he is the groove master. :adam:
 
The Raveonettes - That Great Love Sound
The Rapture - House of Jealous Lovers
T. Rex - 20th Century Boy
Franz Ferdinand - Take Me Out
Ted Leo and the Pharmacists - Where Have All The Rude Boys Gone
 
U2 Salome - zooromancer mix

Trainspotting soundtrack
Kill Bill soundtrack
 
"The Dark of the Matinee" Franz Ferdinand

that's a hot one.

as is "Seven Nation Army" by the White Stripes.

or "Ball and Biscuit." :combust:
 
you can dance to anything by Numbers and Erase Errata....
also:
The Rapture - Out of the Races and Onto the Tracks
The Fever - Glamorous Life
any and all ska bands, my favorite ska tune to dance to is "Be Mine Tonight" by DGB

and hell, i love to dance at concerts so i'll pretty much move to anything be it by skanking, moshing, or going nuts. if you don't leave a concert dripping with sweat, you didn't really enjoy it. :)

By the by, am I the only person that likes the studio version of "Dancing in the Dark"?

:yikes: :barf: ... and that video! :crazy:


Anyway, do you good people think that I should add Love And Peace Or Else to the mix. It does groove in its heaviness. :yes:

It's my favourite Bruce song, so no. :wink:

Now I have to hear the live version though. :hmm: I'm intrigued.

You must pick up the Bruce live in Barcelona DVD... it's astonishingly good. Much better than the Live in NYC one.
 
I love to dance. Here are a few suggestions. Mostly which have already been mentioned.

"We'er on Top" The killers
Somebody Told You- The Killers
Bob Marley-Red, Red Wine. Get up Stand Up...great dance music
Anything by Inxs
Franz Ferdinand
No Doubt.
You're So Hot- Rolling Stones
