Eww... I hate that song.
I would say "Watcha Want" by Beastie Boys. Or "Fight the Power" by Public Enemy.
And everybody must agree that it's impossible to be still when "Could You Be Loved" with Marley is playing!!

Its a pretty mad song though. Dont know why i like it, but everytime it comes on, im like a man posessed. Im famous for it. I suspect its more of a problem....i should really see a doctor.....
"If you see a faded sign at the side of the road,

The Beautiful People, The Beautiful People!
The mortal Kombat Theme ALWAYS gets some head movement from me, also Centrefold, Eagle Rock and that song with "i like that old time rock and roll, the kind of music that sooths the soul". I dont get up dancing anywhere but when home alone ive been known to shake my thang! :)

Tool. :love: What a great band.... And the videos. Now, that's almost a topic for this board! That guitarist makes some great ****ing videos!
I always feel the urge to jump around when Rage Against The Machine rages on. Or raged on. :bawling:

I do not 'shake my thang.'
Not never.
Well, I have in the past. Now I dance slow and save the shakin' for later.

Ah yes, my favourite tool video is for "Sober", i just love the animation, it's so creepy, disturbing and relates alot to the song.
As for rage, I never quite got past the self titled album (in which is one of my favourite albums). I heard along time ago that the Cyprus Hill main singer was taking over - is this true ?
Ugh, Tool? You can find a better band even if you restrict yourself to those groups which rhyme with them. Schism is annoyingly repetitious and overrated, if ya' ask me.
That said, I defy any of you to immobilize your "thang" whilst listening to Michael Jackson's Superfly Sister.

I don't know which video that is the best, but the one that comes to mind is their latest (at least I think it's their latest) "Parabola". That one is amazing.. Both music and images.
Ok, Rage. It was very long since Zen Dog (I think it was) was considered as a new rapper/singer in RATM. Have you heard Audioslave? That's RATH - Zack de la Rocha + Soundgarden's lead singer Chris Cornell. So basically, the music is the same - the singing is not.
You should check out Rage Against the Machine's cover cd "Renegades". It contains covers of MC5, Afrika Bambaata, Cypress Hill, Bruce Springsteen, Iggy & Stooges, Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan and more. It's really really cool. Especially the Stooges cover. I also like their cd "The Battle of Los Angeles". Heavy ****. Michael Moore did the video for "Sleep Now In the Fire" from that album. It's really cool. But their first album is of course a classic. It still gives me the chills.

I can't help but move when I hear a good Red Hot Chilli Pepper song, or "Paint it Black" from the Stones.
I saw Tool live (one of the few times)... they're great.
I am the king of "the cabbage patch" dance.

Thankyou, i'm going to check them out right now. hmmm someone should create a "suggest an album/song" thread, that would be cool....

There's no two step numbers on your dance card, maam... how's a cowboy supposed to dance with you?
We agree on a song! *does a happy dance* It is a cool song isn't it. :yup:
A two-step!? I dunno...I've never two stepped before Sir. I guess a cowboy would have to suggest a song and teach me. I'd be willing to learn something new. ;)

hey this is going great!! :laugh: We should all have a Ho-Down or summit....is that what a ho down is? When everyone gets together and dances? maybe not....well how about a big Danceathon? Doesnt sound like anyone would be on that dance floor on their own! waahoo! :D
On anohther note, ive noticed that lately, my feet begin to wobble and i am strangley drawn to the dancefloor when anything by Justin Timberlake comes on....odd.
I just heard one of my old favorites...
Jungle Love by Morris Day and The Time at the movie theatre today and it got me thinkin' 'bout shakin' ma' thaaang....and wanted to bump this thread up.
For me, Morris Day was a scene stealer in Purple Rain (I loved him!) And...I'm wondering if...with Prince's resurgence in his current concert tour and Grammy performance..if people are noticing Morris Day again. I've heard his Jungle Love several times now in the past month...and it's never been a song I've noticed being given radio time since it was popular in the 80's.
Anywayz...family vacation time is comming up in a month and I need some more tunes to get us shakin' down the highway. Any suggestions?

Ohhhh... YEAH!! That takes me back in a big way.

I suggest Erasure - anything by them. They're all upbeat, fun. When I get the blues, I pop them in the stereo and <bamf!> I'm better in 10 minutes.
My happy-foot songs:
Mustang Sally - whoever's singing it at the moment
Should I Stay Or Should I Go - The Clash
Whisper to a Scream - Icicleworks
Closer - NIN
Melt With You - Modern English
I Want You - Roxette (wasn't it?)

I love "Sexual Healing" - it has to be the remake though, not the original.
