Club Tunes That Got U Out 2D Dance Floor

[2Nu]

Ok Folks
Lets have some of those tunes that made you put down or down your drink, stop your conversation and got Uras out to the danze floor!

[filmguy415]

I hat to say it but "Relax" always got me on the floor early in the night. But if you're looking for a song that got me really moving on the floor I would have to say "Head Like a Hole" Nine inch Nails.[8D]

God help anyone between us and the dance floor. Often heard the sound of breaking glass behind us.

[2Nu]

aya ya ya ya ya ya yayaya! [;)]

[Dave]

I remember us being given a timeout on several occassions for being a little too rambunctious on the dancefloor at Spit. Never seemed to be a problem at the other clubs.

[2Nu]

At Camouflage, we would dance up & down the stairs to the floor pit, kinda a la punk Fred Astaire(s). No one at the club minded much[^]

[SwampThing]

None. I hate it when they take a perfectly good song and remix it or extend it with cheesy effects like changing the speed and stuttering the lyrics. Then they add all these unnecessary (electronic) drum pieces. Well that's my opinion anyways.

maddies mom posts:

I would lose control on all levels if I were ever granted the chance to hear this at a club. I forgot to mention "Biting my Nails" would cause me to bulldoze the dancefloor crowd.
