Day 9: A Song I Can Dance To

First I'm going to define, "can dance to." I'm not making any claims to a dancing ability here. I learned the Electric Slide in elementary school and thought I was pretty good at it, but that's the extent of my skill and I have long since forgotten that one anyway. So I'll be talking about a song with a beat that I can move to, not about something I can "dance" to and look good while doing so. That one doesn't exist.

I'm actually going to talk about  couple of songs. So for the first one, does anybody remember Savage Garden? I was a fan of the band when I was younger, and then several years ago I learned the lead singer, Darren Hayes, had a solo career. I think the guy is actually still making music, which seems crazy to me. I haven't heard any of his recent stuff, but I like some of the older songs. Here's one I can't quite sit still to.

"Spin" by Darren Hayes
It's just fun, in my opinion. I listened to this one today while driving across Kansas, and I danced as much as possible while remaining in my seat. You guys get that, right? That's not just a me thing?

I heard this next one during my drive too. The lyrics aren't quite as light and enjoyable, but it does have a good beat. I believe my finger danced to this one today. Don't ask...

"Capital G" by Nine Inch Nails
