Here's mine
I was born in the 70's and loved a rave back in the day but I love an old dance floor classic. Please share yours.

Don't think my link worked it was the Engils "Heaven must have sent you" number 2 would be Billy ocean "Red light spells Danger".
I'm loving all your replies all we need now is a dance floor.

Red Red Wine by UB40. Makes me think of a close friend who’s no longer with us. She was always first up on the dance floor when that came on.

The Blister Exists - Slipknot
Bulls on Parade - Rage Against the Machine

Agree with Murder on the Dancefloor, Sophie EB, absolute floor filler. Also, I Danced with Another Love in My Dream by Brigitte Calls Me Baby. Dance your socks off stuff.

Yes yes to Mr Brightside. But if I had one vote then it would be Dancing in the moonlight - Toploader 💃

Better with her aunt
Cissy Houston..I just don't know what to do with myself.
Better than Dusty Springfield's version.
