Dance Craze Songs

A list of songs with an associated dance craze. Ideally the song lyrics should explain how to do the dance.

• Agadoo: Black Lace. The fourth worst song ever?
• The Bump: Kenny. Ludicrous seventies dance.
• Do The Funky Chicken: Rufus Thomas.
• The Chicken Song: Spitting Image.
• (Do Do Do) The Funky Gibbon: The Goodies.
• Macarena: Los Del Rio.
• Oops Upside Your Head: The GAP band. Sitting on the floor, rowing - what was all that about?
• (Do The) Push & Pull: Rufus Thomas.
• The Resurrection Shuffle: Ashton, Gardner, and Dyke.
• Superman: Black Lace.
• The Time Warp: Rocky Horror Show.
• The Twist: Hank Ballard & The Midnighters, and later covered by Chubby Checker.

Disqualified:

• Land Of 1000 Dances: Just About Everybody. Too general.

Eponymous Tracks

Not albums, oh no. That would be too easy. What we want here are tracks with exactly the same name as their performer.

• Hi Tension: Hi Tension
• M.E.T.H.O.D. Man: Method Man. Or is that cheating?
• Talk Talk: Talk Talk
• They Might Be Giants: They Might Be Giants
