To this day, I start head bopping & shoulder dancing, and my hand reflexively goes to the volume knob to turn it up.
I've got many others, but Radar Love is one I've loved since I first heard it. You already know how I feel about Superstition.

We used to dance to it in Jazzercise, so I remember the moves and how much fun it was to dance to it! It was sad about Marvin Gaye and I really mourned losing him!

Two of my favorite bands of all time. Sweet were obviously a rock band primarily, but they started out as bubblegum pop and mutated all the way to heavy metal over the course of their (very interesting but very underrated) career! ABBA was my first favorite band besides The Monkees.

I will watch the Blues Brothers movie every time I can just to hear this and dance to it!!

Also - Legs and Sharp Dressed Man by ZZ Top.

Also - Rock the Casbah by the Clash.

I adore and rock out to these every chance I get!
