Best songs to bop to!

Looking for Mumsnet inspiration. I want to create a playlist to have around if I need to cheer myself up. I love it when a song (the cheesier the better!) comes on the radio and you just can't help but bop round the kitchen to it. I often hear them come on and think, "Oh, this one, this needs to go on my bop list!" and then promptly forget what it was. Catchy lyrics are a total bonus. I've managed to recall three so far, Shakira with Hips Don't Lie, Ricky Martin with She Bangs (I think!) and Shania Twain with Man I Feel Like A Woman...

So you can see where I'm coming from! I'm getting on a bit, stuck in the past and decidedly un-trendy!😂Help me out, what's your favourite, just gotta dance tune? Thanks!

@dudsville
Thank you, that's a bit modern and harsh for me for some reason though. Really grates on me when it comes on the radio! 😂

@autienotnaughty
Thank you, some good suggestions there, love Build me up Buttercup!

@rubbishatballet
Thank you, don't know that one... I shall mooch off to have a listen!

Anymore for anymore? There must be some old boppers on here somewhere! 😉

I think you're BVVU to use the word 'bop'!

But that said, my current favourite to dance to is Head on Fire by Griff and Sigrid.

Backstreet Boys - ‘I want it that way’ is actually impossible not to sing to
Also anything by the VengaBoys
Lou Bega - Mambo number 5?
Spice girls - Spice up your life
Christina Aguilera - Come on over

I may have to make myself a playlist 🤔

Anything boppy by Britney!
