What would make you get up and dance?
« on: June 24, 2008, 20:00:07 »
Can I enlist the help of you good folks?  Assuming you are willing and able, which three records would most likely get you up and dancing at a wedding?  And please, no Abba!   ;D

Build Me Up Buttercup (The Foundations)
Sit Down (James)
Valerie (The Zutons)

Good dancing songs that will appeal to a wide range of ages. I danced to them all last weekend!

Aggghh - I'm singing: why do you build me up, buttercup baby, just to let me down etc etc now :D  Good choice tho'.  I had 'Laid' by James on the list but will add Sit Down too I think.  :)  Can't place the last one - will check on Google.  Many thanks.

I love that version, much better than Amy Winehouse in my humble opinion.

What about Brown Eyed Girl, Van Morrison?
