The 'Let's Dance' Song Tournament

Ye all might have to bear with me a little in the morning and possibly over the next cpl of days as I appear to have turned an ankle today so am struggling in terms of mobility which means getting downstairs in the morning will almost certainly be a bit of an adventure. I will make it down and get the round up though - if the worst comes to the worst I'll get herself to carry me down

ROUND ONE DAY THREE

Cher - Believe vs. The Upsetters - Return of Django Believe is a wonderful dance to but, Django has a smooth groove to do The Stroll to

Abba - Dancing Queen vs. TLC - Creep VERY, VERY difficult to choose between, but in the end. . .

Daft Punk - Lose Yourself To Dance vs. Martha and the Vandellas - Dancing in the Streets Another VERY hard one to choose from. And by the way, these old Soul Train vids are freakin AWESOME!!

Joy Division - Love Will Tear Us Apart vs. Krewella - Alive Difficult call #3

Wilson Pickett - Land of 1000 Dances vs. At the Hop - Danny and the Juniors annnnd #4

Mylène Farmer - Oui Mais... Non vs. Sir Mix-A-Lot - Baby Got Back shake that healthy butt!!

Donna Summer - Last Dance vs. Snap - Rhythm is a Dancer difficult call #5 though with this one, dancing to Donna Summer brings back alot of great summer nights

Chubby Checker - Let's Twist Again vs. The Meters - Cissy Strut I LOOOVE the twist, but with this final VERY difficult call, there was a just a hint of a better groove with Cissy Strut

Sorry to hear about your injury, but don't worry about us. Take care of your ankle first. It's more important than this tournament.



It's kind of ironic that with all the different song tournaments we have around here, you hurt your ankle during the dancing tournament. Maybe you were dancing just a bit more than you should have been.

Thanks for the kind words peeps, after a nights rest it's thankfully a lot better this morn (wife suggested a trip to A&E today, to which I immediately countered "Monday if necessary .....
