Since this has been revived and while reading some of the super stuff in here from the heart and from artists.........I think I will drop another "dance" bomb on the floor:
Come Dancing - The Kinks
They put a parking lot on a piece of land
When the supermarket used to stand.
Before that they put up a bowling alley
On the site that used to be the local palais.
That’s where the big bands used to come and play.
My sister went there on a saturday.
Come dancing,
All her boyfriends used to come and call.
Why not come dancing, it’s only natural?
Another saturday, another date.
She would be ready but she’s always make them wait.
In the hallway, in anticipation,
He didn’t know the night would end up in frustration.
He’d end up blowing all his wages for the week
All for a cuddle and a peck on the cheek.
Come dancing,
That’s how they did it when I was just a kid,
And when they said come dancing,
My sister always did.
My sister should have come in a midnight,
And my mum would always sit up and wait.
It always ended up in a big row
When my sister used to get home late.
Out of my window I can see them in the moonlight,
Two silhouettes saying goodnight by the garden gate.
The day they knocked down the palais
My sister stood and cried.
The day they knocked down the palais
Part of my childhood died, just died.
Now I’m grown up and playing in a band,
And there’s a car park where the palais used to stand.
My sister’s married and she lives on an estate.
Her daughters go out, now it’s her turn to wait.
She knows they get away with things she never could,
But if I asked her I wonder if she would,
Come dancing,
Come on sister, have yourself a ball.
Don’t be afraid to come dancing,
It’s only natural.
Come dancing,
Just like the palais on a saturday.
And all her friends will come dancing
Where the big bands used to play.
I just totally remember waltzing around the South Bank to amuse my younger brother.....singing in my best Julie Andrews voice
I could have danced all night
I could have danced all night
and still have begged for more
I could have spread my wings
and done a thousand things
I've never done before
hehehehehe
....they're asking me to prove why I should be allowed to stay with my baby in Australia, because I'm mentally ill......and they think I should leave......
Hey, hey, hey! Yeeeeee-ahhh, I was doing the Batoosey all night long, ISN! Just can't stop these feet, just can't stop groovin' to the beat, gonna tear up the friggin' street...
HAHA! Julie Andrews Jr!! I love it!
I learned that fifties "at the hop" type dancing and so, I used to wing my little sisters around the house to "Rock Around The Clock" and stuff. It was the best! We'd dance and dance and giggle our asses off--good times! Dancing is just so freeing and fun, isn't it?
a poet, dancing naked rocks! In da moonshine er da sunshine, yes indeedy! Oooo, reminds me of a song:
Dance Naked - John Mellencamp
I want you to dance naked
So I can see you
Id like to get to know you
You dont have to act naughty
Spin it round and round
Spin it round and round and round
I want you to dance naked
I promise I wont touch you
I promise to tell no one, no
I want you to dance naked
Spin it round and round
Spin it round and round and round
Spin it round and round
I want you to dance naked
If you like Ill join you
I want to enjoy your body
I want to hear all your secrets
I want to know if you like me
As much as I like you
I want you to dance naked
But only if you want to
Spin it round and round
Spin it round and round and round
Spin it round and round
I want you to dance naked
So I can see you
Id like to get to know you
But only if you want to
Spin it round and round
Spin it round and round and round
Spin it round and round
Spin it round and round and round
I want you to dance naked
And even flow?--Great tune from ya there!!!!! I have to agree, "It's only natural.
Thanks guys! I actually liked the poem a lot and I love some of the tags from BlackSin and tagging back and forth on them--it was a lot of fun! {{{{HUGGLES}}}}
Forget your perfect offering, there is a crack in everything, that's how the light gets in. - Leonard Cohen
well, whoaaa, I liked that one......that is nice!!!!
I never even heard of that song.......
Bill Hailey (sp) and the Comets.....my mother's favourite band......I jus like the way Elvis danced with that look in his eye.......fukkin I love the way in Thailand when I was growing up, the grils would dance with each other......they looked so cute and shy......there's a whole different attitude over there.....in Asia......girls can be friends......hehehehee.......I'm such a crap dancer.......
....they're asking me to prove why I should be allowed to stay with my baby in Australia, because I'm mentally ill......and they think I should leave......
Girl dancing is fun! There's none of that pretention or shyness you can exhibit when dancing with boys--it's just plain fun!
When I was a kid my parents threw me (kicking and screaming ) into ballet. I hated it until we did modern dance because that was just relaxed and fun not prim and proper. So, anyway, the teacher had us do a dance to "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" by Queen as a little recital for the parents. All the other girls in the class had to dress as boys except me (probably becasue I was the most filled out of the lot ), and I was so damn happy to be dancing the lead and be the girl. To this day, I love that tune, mostly for that reason and I remember how good it felt to dance like that. So, all in all, at least ballet class helped me move with some grace, which for me is an amazing feat!
And babe, even crap dancers can have fun! That's what it's all about--having fun and letting your inhibitions go. I'm sure you can at least bob and weave and flail your arms a little--that works! And even silly dancing is fun so, don't knock your moves, just bust 'em out!
PS. I like to do the Elvis "un-huh"--to hear him talk makes me . And hey, he did a great little ditty I like called "Bossa Nova"--it makes ya shake and bake!
I said, 'Take it easy, baby
I worked all day and my feet feel just like lead
You got my shirt tails
Flyin' all over the place
And the sweat poppin' out of my head'
She said, 'Hey, Bossa nova, baby
Keep on a workin' child
This ain't no time to quit'
She said, 'Go, Bossa nova, baby
Keep on dancin'
I'm about to have myself a fit'
Bossa nova, Bossa nova

Safety-dance!
Ah we can dance if we want to, we can leave your friends behind
Cause your friends don’t dance and if they don’t dance
Well they’re are no friends of mine
I say, we can go where we want to, a place where they will never find
And we can act like we come from out of this world
Leave the real one far behind,
And we can dance
We can dance if we want to, we can leave your friends behind
Cause your friends don’t dance and if they don’t dance
Well they’re are no friends of mine
I say, we can go where we want to a place where they will never find
And we can act like we come from out of this world
Leave the real one far behind
And we can dance.
Dancez!
Ah we can go when we want to the night is young and so am i
And we can dress real neat from our hats to our feet
And surprise ’em with the victory cry
I say we can act if want to if we don’t nobody will
And you can act real rude and totally removed
And I can act like an imbecile
I say we can dance, we can dance everything out control
We can dance, we can dance we’re doing it wall to wall
We can dance, we can dance everybody look at your hands
We can dance, we can dance everybody takin’ the chance
Safety dance
Oh well the safety dance
Ah yes the safety dance
Ssss-aaaa-ffff-eeee-tttt-yyyy
Safety-dance
We can dance if we want to, we’ve got all your life and mine
As long as we abuse it, never gonna lose it
Everything’ll work out right
I say, we can dance if we want to we can leave your friends behind
Cause your friends don’t dance and if they don’t dance
Well they’re are no friends of mine
I say we can dance, we can dance everything out of control
We can dance, we can dance we’re doing it wall to wall
We can dance, we can dance everybody look at your hands
We can dance, we can dance everybody’s takin’ the chance
Oh well the safety dance

Lovin' it, even flow?!!! I feel like dancing and skipping with the little people now!!! WHEEEE, a do the safety dance, everybody get outta yer pants!
HA! And how could I forget a dancehall favortie!!!!
THE TIME WARP!!!
It's astounding, time is fleeting
Madness takes its toll
But listen closely, not for very much longer
I've got to keep control
I remember doing the TIme Warp
Drinking those moments when
The blackness would hit me and the void would be calling
Let's do the time warp again...
Let's do the time warp again!
It's just a jump to the left
And then a step to the right
With your hands on your hips
You bring your knees in tight
But it's the pelvic thrust that really drives you insane,
Let's do the Time Warp again!
It's so dreamy, oh fantasy free me
So you can't see me, no not at all
In another dimension, with voyeuristic intention
Well-secluded, I see all
With a bit of a mind flip
You're there in the time slip
And nothing can ever be the same
You're spaced out on sensation, like you're under sedation
Let's do the Time Warp again!
Well I was walking down the street just a-having a think
When a snake of a guy gave me an evil wink
He shook me up, he took me by surprise
He had a pickup truck and the devil's eyes.
He stared at me and I felt a change
Time meant nothing, never would again
Let's do the Time Warp again!
WOOOO-doggy!!! Dats a doozy!

"Why do I bother?"

"Whatever"
PETITION TO STOP THE BAN OF SMOKING IN BARS IN THE UNITED STATES....Anyone?
