Dancing Queen

So, you know those songs that you listen to because they make you happy? Those songs that make you feel no ill will towards the world and you just want to get up and just dance the night away? Yeah, I have a couple of those.

1. Bring it all Back - S Club 7

I don't know what it is about this song. I have loved it ever since like 2nd grade. I used to sing it every time I cleaned my room as it was upbeat and I could do fake dance moves whilst vacuuming the floor. I'd always end up tripping over the power cord a couple times, but it was just a fun song. The lyrics of the song are all about self empowerment and loving yourself. Yeah, and I know Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, and Christina have been doing this, but this was the first song that struck that self-empowerment chord with me. I still call it my favorite song to this day.

2. Dancing Queen or Mamma Mia - ABBA

Both of these songs hold equal value for me. So yeah, I know I never lived in the 70's ever, but I don't know what it is about these songs, but the infectious melodies and lyrics NEVER leave my head. Dancing Queen makes me want to do oh-so-trite 70's dance moves, but that's what makes it fun! I will dance the night away to Mamma Mia as well, as these both contain beats that are just insanely mesmerizing.

3. The Edge of Glory - Lady Gaga

Okay, so this is the song Lady Gaga has most recently put out as a promotional single for Born This Way. It's catchy, upbeat, and VERY 80's. If you listen to it, it can get VERY infectious. It's a song that WILL make you get up and dance to it. It like demands that sort of treatment. I don't know, I'm a sucker for dance beats, what can I say??

Anyways, I know this blog post was really weird and not like my normal ones where I talk about life and be all philosophical and stuff, but I just wanted to give y'all a taste I suppose about my musical preferences. I'm just a dance music nerd, what can I say? Also because I have a final tomorrow that I am massively procrastinating for. Oh well, we'll see how it goes.
