It changes but most recently Suddenly Seymour from Little Shop of Horrors was an unexpected shot in the arm Grin

I also love Downtown, You Can't Stop the Beat, 36D and Shut up and Dance

Epic choice!

Stronger by Britney Spears / One by Mary J Blige always help me run a bit faster!

WillYouDoTheFandango · 23/09/2021 21:18

@PowerupEtc fight song is by Rachel Platten. I was going to say that one too.

I’m learning Spanish and love a bit of Latin pop. I can’t stay still when I hear Loca or Rabiosa (seems to be a theme) by Shakira. My latest one is Cancion Bonita by someone? ft Ricky Martin. Bit cheesy but in a good way if you’re a Spanish language song fan. Grin

Deux · 23/09/2021 21:19

I’ve got a few that circulate but the one I always go back to is AC/DC You Shook Me All Night Long.

You’re So Vain - Carly Simon

Not for the meaning of the song, I just love ut’
