I love to dance. Unfortunately, God blessed me with the rhythm of a deaf, Lily-Pulitzer-wearing, Greenwich Conneticut white girl. No amount of ballroom dance lessons, time at hip-hop clubs, or hours in front of the mirror has altered this fact. However, I cannot say that not being able to dance to has ever stopped me either. Sometimes when you hear the beat....
One of the few bastions for the rhythmically challenged are weddings. At a wedding you can say things like: My shoes are making it hard for me to dance properly. This music is not what I am used to. And my favorite, I'm drunk, wahoo!!!
Weddings also provide the greatest spaz music. Wedding DJ's are notorious for mixing it up: a little motown, a little salsa, a little disco, a little pop, a lot of cheese. My favorites are the line dances. Ever since my fifth grade gym class, I had this obsession with them. Come on, admit it. Everyone loves the coordinated motions of a large group. It is why movie producers stick dance sequences in teen movies such as ""She's all that," "Grease," and "A Knight's Tale." So when they played the "Electric Slide," I was so excited. J and I rushed to the dance floor and boogie woogied are 'til our hearts' content. The DJ then let loose a few recent pop songs. Usher's "Yeah" and Will Smith's "Switch" got C to show off her bootie dance. An older filipino couple showed every up by grooving to Gwen's "Hollaback Girl."
Everyone's gotta dance....Gotta dance....Got to daaaaance.
