Dancing is a thing that gets done usually. Whether it is on your own to music (or no music, which makes you look like these posts look on HockeyMike's phone), or with your fellow humans, joyous rhythm -or lack of thereof- cheers everyone up. You can dance with every muscle in your body, you can make your fingers dance alone, you can shake your head to the rhythm... there are millions of ways you can dance, and that's great. Let's celebrate dancing with songs about, well, dancing.

As usual, let's begin with the song that gives this article its title, a fun Elton John-penned Scissor Sisters tune that makes you dance, even though it's about the entire opposite.
Usually, songs about dancing happen to be very dance-worthy. Take, for example, this Fall Out Boy track, which makes you want to at least tap your fingers on the table (or hate the fact that I put a Fall Out Boy track on this column).
French duo Justice also has a very fun dance song whose initials are, well, D and A and N and C and E. Very subtle; in case you haven't noticed, it means "dance".
This Whitney Houston classic is also a love song, in where a melancholic Whitney sings about wanting to dance with someone who loves her. Fun fact: the "dancing" in the song doesn't mean the actual action of dancing, but the dancing of a life together with someone. Metaphors!
And, of course, for the closer, we can't leave this key part of the very fun Labyrinth, can we?
Do you like dancing? What's your favorite song about dancing?
