Some, not all, of mine--
"In Your Eyes," by Peter Gabriel--I think it is one of the most romantic songs of the rock era, if not the most romantic.
"Babydoll" by Laurie Anderson. Her "Strange Angels" is really accessible, yet still smart.
Almost anything from MJackson's "Off The Wall" album. "Off The Wall" was the last best good one, in my opinion. (and just my opinion.)
Anyone say "Dancin' In The Streets" yet? Either one will do.
Toni Basil's hit, "Oh Mickey" is fun for an aerobic dance.
A lot of Prince. "Little Red Corvette, Raspberry Beret, When Doves Cry......."
I love "Mr. Brightside" by The Killers. When Brandon Flowers says "It was only a kiss," I hear a lot. I love the whole album- "Hot Fuss," but Mr. Brightside, and "Somebody Told Me" are my favourite tracks.
What about "The Shoop Shoop Song- (It's In His Kiss")? Cher did a creditable turn.
Counting Crows' "A Long December" is a good slow dance. "Einstein On The Beach-For An Eggman" is also fun.
"Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy"--slight preference for the Andrews Sisters version, because of the lack of studio magic, but Bette's version will get me moving, too.
Thanks for an interesting thread, VeryEvilGrin.
