This thread has made me realise that I'll dance to any old shit! I love a cheesy wedding disco me! 😳

Me too. I go out dancing fairly often and once I'm up there, I'm there for a good chunk of the night

A few songs I'm not a huge fan of isn't going to put me off 💃

Totally agree, it's a disgusting song.

THANKS SO MUCH! I love this and it really cheered me up.
Brown Sugar
Satisfaction.
HOWEVER...I'm in the mood for dancing is soooo cheesy and cheerful!

Yes it's a crap song. But I remember as student nurse ,me and my fellow house mates learned the dance and performed it one of our parties 🤣

Dancing in the knobbing Moonlight
I hate it more than I can express, and I'm usually pretty endlessly vocal about stuff. I don't have enough venom in me to wang on about how much it tips me over the edge. It makes me want to throw a chair and upend a table (in a weedy, defeated fashion)...
Jangly, jolly, grating pile of shite!!!

Murder on the dance floor 🤪

candycane222 · 08/04/2024 19:05

And their dog @Beargrumps22??? 😯😅

Tallerinanotherdimension · 08/04/2024 19:24

I’m adding to my original list and I don’t think these have been mentioned.

Livin’ La Vida Loca
Mambo No 5
No idea who wrote it but the Friends theme tune.
The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. (My friend was having a wine and cheese night and this song got mentioned and she did the full version and I was like dear god make it stop).

No one has mentioned Queen (that I’ve seen) which is good because I love them.

Of course he did!

I still can’t believe there are people in the world who think the world’s most obvious nonce is actually innocent!

This. I thought it was just me who thinks this.

Anything by Coldplay

Lemonademoney · 08/04/2024 19:54

Most of the above and Robbie Williams Angels….

Caswallonthefox · 08/04/2024 20:00

Careless whisper. We had a school disco and the amount of times they played that song in a 2 hour period, put me off it for life.

Comedycook · 08/04/2024 20:02

Girls just wanna have fun...

Shudder
