What song on your playlist just makes you wanna get up out of your chair and dance up a storm?

For me, although I love the fast ska-punk, it's hard to show off to my invisible, yet captive audience, so I like Hepcat - Dance Wid' me

also The Planet Smashers stuff and The Slackers make me wanna get up and go crazy

now for you

edit: oops, i forgot The Specials - Too Much, Too Young

There's a lot of great dancing songs, here's to name a few:

"Gerry Is Strong" - Bruce Lee Band
"Beer" - Reel Big Fish
"If and When We Rise Again" - Streetlight Manifesto
"Gangsters" - The Specials
"Shot My Boss" - Cousin Oliver
"Say Goodnight" - Voodoo Glow Skulls

And almost any song by Catch-22

Long list... what can I say? I love ska.

I know a bunch of people who refuse to dance at shows.


Ska isn't completely about dancing.
