Your homework for the week...

[venta]

Felix is on a mission. Not, as you might expect, to take over the world, but to compile a list of the top 200 songs guaranteed to get people on a dance floor.

So, for the past couple of hours I've been suggesting songs, and he's been dissing them mightily and telling me nobody but me and my two friends have heard of them. (Oh, apparently only one friend).

I still haven't stopped arguing for Another Girl, Another Planet by the Only Ones. Or disagreeing that nobody in their right minds would get up to dance to Boys and Girls by Blur.

So. I want a list of the songs you think everybody would get up to dance to. This is everybody, even that girl over there who clearly has dreadful taste.

It worries me that this list will consist largely of 80s bilge and Abba, and therefore you're also welcome to tell me the songs that would make you get up and dance.

Well, I'll always dance to anything by NMA, Creaming Jesus or Fugazi, but I fear I may be atypical.

As for individual songs, AGAP gets me every time, Spear of Destiny's Liberator too (yeah, yeah, I know, but that one was actually good, besides its got some memories for me), and Carters Rubbish.

anything by creaming Jesus ?
You can dance to Celebrity Cannibalism?
I'm impressed :)

If they're prepared to play it in a club, I'll dance.

Most fun, of course, is to dance to the Cures version of A Forest as if it were the Creaming Jesus version...
