Songs you most enjoyed dancing to back in the day

[DJ Lestat]

A bunch of club hits came through shuffle today and it got me thinking of my favorite songs to dance to back in the 80's clubbing days.
So here's a few from me:
1. Soviet Snow(Popstand Remix) this is my wife's fav song so I was out on the dance floor alot for this one!
2. Rigormortis(Transient Mix)
3. Looking From A Hilltop

Let's hear your favs



Always remember you are unique....just like everyone else.

[Retro_NRG]

Hmmm... Soo many come to mind.

This <a href="http://www.nwoutpost.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=121">ooold thread</a> pretty much covers all of my faves.[8D]

<MARQUEE><h5>Moving @The Speed of Life</h5></MARQUEE>

[club80]

Yeah, but that thread had its last response two years ago. So many new members since then.

A few that come to mind are:
Uncertain Smile - The The
Kick In The Eye - Bauhaus
Alice - The Sisters Of Mercy
I Travel - Simple Minds
Pulse - Psychedelic Furs
Heaven - Psychedelic Furs (with my wife. It was our song)

Lots of hardcore in the slamdancing days. I actually broke my nose to "Pay To Cum" by Bad Brains.

We didn't sell a lot of records, but somehow we left an impression.

Does it seem like a funny song for couples?

We had the standard issue, big four:
Tainted Love - Soft Cell
Don't You Want Me - Human League
Blue Monday - New Order
Mony, Mony - Billy Idol
I know that may sound boring, but the clubs here did not play new wave except for one, and we were usually the only people on the dance floor.

I recall visiting a friend at Fredonia College and risking life & limb, running across a busy street because we heard "I Ran" playing in a club down the road. We ran in, jumped on the dance floor and left as soon as the song was done.

No dance....don't like dancing....don't like videos with dancing. Dancing bad, like fire....fire bad.

[scramjet]

I have happy memories of dancing to these:

B-52's - Rock Lobster & Private Idaho
Adam Ant - Goody Two Shoes
Billy Idol - Dancing with Myself & Mony Mony
Housemartins - Happy Hour
The Vapors - Turning Japanese

Fairly standard stuff, but it all seemed unique, new and original at the time.

Well...just that...I'm seriously not trying to be funny or be a smart ass or anything like that...and I'm not trying to pick a fight or be a jerk...but for some reason I had in my head that you played for the other team...

...now I feel like a total moron. I wish I could point to a specific reason why I thought that. [xx(]

[wherewereuin82]

The Beat - Twist & Crawl
Fad Gadget - Collapsing New People
Ministry - Work For Love
New Order - Temptation
Classix Nouveaux - Is It A Dream
Cabaret Voltaire - Sensoria
Killing Joke - Eighties
Nitzer Ebb - Murderous
Front 242 - Headhunter
Renegade Soundwave - Cocaine Sex
Happy Mondays - WFL
SA42 - Carnaval
Gruesome Twosome - Hallucination Generation

There are so many more. A better question for me would have been: What song made you sit down?

Not to worry. I can't tell you how many times I couldn't tell someone's gender by their I.D. or even their posts on this board. I guessed wrong a few times myself. No offense taken.
