Dancin' Days: Top 10 Songs About Dancin'

note from the editor: I left out any song about particular kinds of dances. Also left out every song from Michael Jackson's 1979 concept album about dancing. Then again, arguably every Michael Jackson song is about dancing. Also left out any version of "Dancin' in the Street" because it's fuckin' stupid.

1. "Got to Give It Up" - Marvin Gaye
2. "Cosmic Dancer" - T. Rex
3. "Twist & Shout" - The Beatles
4. "Let's Face The Music And Dance" - Fred Astaire
5. "Transmission" - Joy Division
6. "Let's Dance" - David Bowie
7. "Dance Away" - Roxy Music
8. "Dance Me to the End of Love" - Leonard Cohen
9. "Dancing in the Dark" - Bruce Springsteen
10. "Mr. Tambourine Man" - Bob Dylan

Honorable Mentions
"Bring on the Dancing Horses" - Echo & The Bunnymen
"Moondance" - Van Morrison
"Moonage Daydream" - David Bowie
