    Your favourite dance tunes!

    Hey Guys!
    Im a DJ for Ceroc, always looking to play good tunes.. It's good to hear from other dancers what your favourite dance tracks are. You know.. those songs that make you jump out your seat and grab your dance partner almost before the first word has been sung!

    One of my classics has to be Aretha Franklin - Think !!


    Whats yours??

    Re: Your favourite dance tunes!

    There are two tunes that will literally make me run and grab one of my favourite dancers: 'fever' from Peggy Lee and 'my baby don't care for me' - any variation of it!

    Some other tunes that I like along the same lines: 'sway with me', 'black magic woman' ... and many others!


    One song that I would really like to be able to choregraphy is 'el tango de roxanne' from the movie Moulin Rouge... a mixture of tango for the intensity and ceroc for 'playing' to it could really be brilliant... love watching Trampy and Lisa dancing to it

    All of those are really good – except "Hey Big Spender"... can't stand it, sorry.

    Funny thing is as a song, I don't particularly like "All That Jazz", but it's so much fun to dance to.

    Also like "Amado Mio", and lots of the Gotan Project tunes.

    It's funny, but I really find it difficult to pick out bunch of songs and call them my favourites to dance to.

    I've never danced to this but its currently one of my most played tracks, and I'd love to dance to it - I'd like mostly tango with some 'play' (probably at the start of the track). I have 'danced' it in my head - not always a good idea when I'm driving as I can get a bit lost in the music...

    Would definitely like to dance it with a partner who could lead some tango. Especially as the music builds up in intensity...

    Re: Your favourite dance tunes!

    Santana 'Smooth', MJ's 'Billie Jean' and 'The way you make me feel'. All of which are very sexy tracks, if you get the right dancer I am also very partial to Swing - Mack the Knife, Have You Met Miss Jones, and so on.

    And if I get a dancer who is good at slow, close moves, I love 'Hungry Eyes' by Eric Carmen.

    Ah, Van the man, may be a difficult man, but one of his tracks was the highlight of a night's muggling for me on Saturday when a little band of Cerocers, desperate for a weekend fix, invaded the local municipal disco.

    He may well have been overplayed in the past, but some of his tracks are surely 'classics' and deserve more than the one or two plays I've been aware of in more than two years of Cerocin'.

    Re: Your favourite dance tunes!

    Mine has to be 'wish I didnt miss you - Angie Stone'
    Fab tune that always gets me on the floor, especially the dance remix!

    Also, 'Rick Guard - Stop it I like it'.
    Another really catchy number.

    Yep, Im with you on that.

    The Angie Stone track is a classis IMO. I always enjoy dancing to that. Surprise, surprise I prefer the slower version but I really like it whatever speed. I find its one of those songs that can be danced to differently each time, depending on your mood!

    The Rick Guard one is just, well, fun.

    Re: Your favourite dance tunes!

    My fav tracks change a lot and there are songs that I loved dancing to a year ago that I'm not fussed on now. Don't know if its over exposure or what.

    Though I like it when I track I already like eg Sway, get a new feel - eg the Pussycat Dolls version, it refreshes it for me.

    I've said it before, but I'll say it again - its not easy to be a good DJ - to those fab ones whose music choices make me want to dance -

    This is my favourite! It melts me everytime i hear it, i get very moody if it plays at a venue and i can't find someone to dance with.

    That's a shame... I'm getting bored of dancing to Van Morrison... Especially Brown Eyed Girl...
