Whether at a wedding, a club, or concert, there are some songs that just make us want to dance...whether you like the song or not! On The Mike & Carla Morning Show, we ran down the list, but more importantly, M&C wanted to know the songs that got you up to dance. No matter where you might be and that even included work, the store or even in the car.
According to an article put out by CISION, 22% of us will dance at least once per day. Now keep in mind, we're talking about when a song comes on, that might include even a little shimmy move at work at your desk. It could be at home while cleaning or even, as we said before, shakin' and movin' in your car!
"I gotta dance...it just makes me feel happier!"
The good news here, according to the article is that 82% of us feel it's a form of release. Further more, 79% of those surveyed said it just makes them feel happier when they get their dance on! A less than that said that moving around the floor can turn a bad day into a good day! So, if you hear your song, go ahead and dance like no one is watching.
Having said all that, what is the song that gets you in the move to shake it up a bit? Found out that there were quite a few titles that came to mind. One listener mentioned Earth, Wind, & Fire's "September". Another listener went back a few years and mentioned Shannon's "Let The Music Play" does it for her. Hey, nothing wrong with that or any song that can get you off the couch to move like Jagger!
So what exactly are those songs that make us get us and move? Carla Rea had mentioned a few songs that give you directions on how to dance to that specific song. But when it comes right down to it, listen to the segment below from this morning, then scroll to see what the Top 5 songs were...and enjoy!
Top 5 Songs That Make Us Want To Dance!
"Dancing Queen"
Say what you will, but this song will get more people out on the dance floor than you think. From singing all the words to playing "air" piano during the song..."Dancing Queen" will make you DANCE!
"Macarena"
It really doesn't matter what version of this song that plays, if you hear it, chances are you're going to dance. Whether at a wedding, club or a friend's party...you knew this song had to be on the list!
"Y.M.C.A."
This has to be the #1 song to get people moving, whether it's dancing or just acting out the letters of this song. You could be deep in conversation and without skipping a beat, you hear this song and it just happens naturally!
"Stayin' Alive"
We think this makes the list, not only is a great dance song, but everyone knows the dance from the movie. Everyone putting their finger high in the air going from one direction to the other. It's a natural dance song that even hard rock bands have covered just to get people dancing...ha, ha, ha!

Again, another song where it doesn't matter what version to hear...it just has that rhythm that makes you feel like you might have the moves! And you know what? There's nothing wrong with that...what do they say, "...dance like nobody's watching!"
