Around 8:oopm on this snowy day the lovely Clarabelle started singing to me “Boom Boom Boom Boom” by the Venga Boys And so she played the song on youtube and danced to it. The homemade video featuring a bunch of silly boys made me think of a video a French guy in his underwear and a hat made to the song “You Sexy Thing” by Hot Chocolate. So I played that one for her and after a while we stood up and danced as I played DJ radio host.
/deep_awesome_voice: “Tonight’s list ladies and gentlemen features all time favorites that will make you groove. Get yourselves ready for the action!”
The list of songs played and danced to in our living room non-stop was as follows:
- Boom Boom Boom Boom – The Venga Boys
- You sexy thing – Hot Chocolate
- Tom Jones – She’s a lady
- Lou Bega – Mambo Nr. 5
- Sweat – Inner Circle (a.k.a. “A la la la la long”)
- Celebration – Kool and the Gang
- Canned Heat – Jamiroquai
- Chillin’ – Modjo
- Hey Ya – Outkast
- Wild Thing – The Troggs
These were the songs until we got nerdy and started studying and blogging. They turned out to be exactly 10 because once we had played 8 we figured we could still find awesome music to round it up.
Take a look at some of the videos:
- You sexy thing – Hot Chocolate
- Tom Jones – She’s a lady
- Lou Bega – Mambo Nr. 5
- Canned Heat – Jamiroquai
- Chillin’ – Modjo
- Hey Ya – Outkast
