Unbelievable by EMF still makes me feel like bouncing around a room in a fit.

If I'm feeling a little groovier... Urban Dance Squad - Deeper Shade of Soul

Though it should be said that I don't dance, sooo...

B52's "Love Shack" comes immediately to mind!

and this late REM gem, "Man-sized Wreath" https://youtu.be/fFF8iwdhc0k -- short, fast, boppin', with a sweet very danceable beat.

One of the greatest covers in history, by LCD Soundsystem.

Love this. I thought about saying Dance Yrself Clean. But the intro is very long before the dancing starts

Bodys is probably Will Toledo's most danceable song.

At Car Seat Headrest shows, Will is always dancing like really badly on stage. But he's absolutely grooving. And it's kind of intoxicating. When I went to a show in May '22, he had everyone in the house dancing.

Step it Up by Stereo MC's
I always dance to the left, to the right ...

Superb track, indeed!

I can't dance for shit, but this makes me want to pick up the guitar that I can barely play, and jump around like a lunatic ๐Ÿ˜

The Sandinistas - Ready To Blow
