I was like 3 when the 80s where around.
If I have to pick an 80s funky dance tune:

Patrick Cowley - Do You Wanna Funk.

Man...what a synth solo.

You can totally dance most of the devo or kraftwerk songs.. but it takes time to learn how to dance them well. [:D]
And no.. you don't have to do the robot to dance kraftwerk... although dancing like a robot can be really cool. [8D]
