We have remembered the songs that move us and got ourselves all sad. So how about the songs make us leap out of the chair and boogie round the room?

Thriller by Michael Jackson
500 miles The Proclaimers
Mr Brightside The Killers

When it was in the charts I thought people were talking about an old Sammy Davis Junior song which I can't stand. I've loved the Christina Aguilera song since I first heard it! grin

Someone bought me a CD a few years ago -'housework songs' and every track gets me dancing. Fabulous!
