Do other families have nightly dance parties in their kitchens? If not, I highly recommend it...it is quite possibly one of my favorite parts of the day. We finish supper, clean up, crank the tunes and go to it! Samara does not stop grinning through the entire thing. In fact, when it's time to turn down the music, she gets a bit pissed and wants more "dance? dance?". Presley is getting in on the action too but has no opinion yet. It's impossible to stay mad, grumpy or stressed. Go on, try it! I dare you!
What are we dancing to? Well, I'm one of those annoying people that pick a favorite song and then play it a zillion times a day until I can no longer stand to listen to it (and neither can anyone else in the house).
Songs I've ruined and can no longer play during our dance parties:
My Girl - The Temptations
Signed, Sealed, Delivered (I'm Yours) - Stevie Wonder
Crazy - Gnarls Barkley
Billie Jean - Michael Jackson
The current song I'm close to ruining:
Cover of The Rolling Stone - Dr. Hook
What song would kick off your dance party? Be honest, embarrassing admissions are completely welcome!

Sometimes I make my kids dance for their food. Is that the same thing?
Hmmm.......
It is very disturbing to me to see that one of your favorite singers, did not get an honorable mention. Mr Phil Collins.......
I admit it, we dance party. The current favorite is the "Dynamite" song. Here, this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUjdiDeJ0xg
Oh yeah, I've ruined many a song listening to it on repeat too! Currently I'm listening to:
"you can have it all" JRDN
"Jolene" Dolly Parton
and
"2000 miles" Pretenders (favorite Christmas song)
Songs I've ruined in the past:
"Paper Planes" MIA
"Grace Kelly" MIKA
"Handlebars" Flotbots
"Lullaby" dixie chicks
"The Con" Tegan and Sara
Okay, I could go on and on but I've embarrassed myself enough!
Oh, we totally have a dance party in our kitchen while we make dinner! We are pretty annoying though and listen to the Glee Soundtracks...ha, now that's a little embarasing!
Hm, I've dance partied with myself... current songs:
Lived in Bars - Cat Power
I Wear my Sunglasses at Night - Corey Heart

Tash,
You could always let Sammie pick a demo song on the keyboard for you

shawn played my bob Dylan tapes so loud in our travels-Marj got out the car and rode with a quieter group

I try to dance and Levi always says "Mom, don't dance. Just listen." LOL
My most recent ruined songs are the Glee remakes of Don't Stop Believing and Billionaire.
I'm currently still in love with Pink's Raise your Glass. Its a good work out song.
