I absolutely cant dance to Prince if they play him in a club etc. I know the videos and the moves so well that I cant help but impersonate him-no amount of booze would convince me I look good when I start doing every action from "Kiss". I have to tell myself to leave it to the expert or get a very untimely death

That's very interesting, and seems very foreign to me. Must be frustrating. I appreciate you sharing that. At least you're aware of your limitations. But I think the key to dance is to free yourself, just get out there and MOVE!

Freaky Dancing:

In order to move like this
Yes, you gotta have confidence
Tell everybody that they'll have to wait
For the nation to participate

Perhaps you're right, lol. But I think the world may be getting robbed by you keeping that to yourself, lol.

I am impelled to dance when I listen to

Lets go crazy
Boys and girls
Kiss
Thieves in the temple
You got the look

I am not familiar with later stuff though. Only snippets on Itunes of 30 seconds which don't compel me to buy smile If anyone can recommend something really funky and groovy, please go ahead.But dancing to When doves cry, that's something I can't do. It's listening for me.
