Danced by Michael Stolhofer
"You're
probably asking yourself how can dancing to a particular record bring
about any important change in your life? Sounds too good to be true.
Well, this record is a result of 3 decades of psycho-acousticle
engineering at the will powers institute. All you need to do is
purchase it, put it on your turntable, and dance. The record will do
the rest." - "Awright, now wait a minute, wait a minute. I have an
important message to deliver to all the cute people all over the world.
If you're out there and you're not cute, maybe you're beautiful, I just
want to tell you somethin' - there's more of us ugly motherfuckers than
you are, hey-y, so watch out. Now..."

When I passed you in the doorway
You took me with a glance
Should have took that last bus home
But I asked you for a dance
Now we were steady to the pictures
I always get chocolate stains on my pants
Father says "he's going crazy"
Says I'm livin' in a trance
Dancing in the moonlight
It's caught me in it's spotlight,
It's alright, it's alright, the moonlight
This long, hot summer night
It's three o'clock in the morning, I'm on the streets again
Disobeyed another warning, Shoulda been home by ten
Now I stay out 'till Sunday, I have to say I stayed with friends
It's a habit worth forming, It's a means to justify the end
Dancing in the moonlight
It's caught me in it's spotlight,
It's alright, it's alright, the moonlight
This long, hot summer night
I'm walking home
Last bus is long gone
(bowtee in her room)
Steve Harley - Dancing On The Telephone
When you call me, I dance on the telephone
When I'm waiting, I gnaw my fingers to the bone
When it's raining, it's always raining on my heart
But when you call me it don't seem to matter that
The car won't start and the roof's started leaking
Some business sets it on fire
When we're in touch with each other
There's a cool exchange, touch me and believe it
Operator, high anticipation
Cool exchange, in a boys imagination
Ooh, ooh, I'm dancing on the telephone
Operator, high anticipation
Cool exchange, in a boys imagination
Ooh, ooh, I'm dancing on the telephone
When you call me, I fall for the party line
Could be in mensa with an iq of under thirty-nine
Ah, now we're talking
Some girls are fond of deceiving
You got my whole heart believing
When you're in touch with each other
There's a cool exchange, touch me and believe it
Operator, high anticipation
Cool exchange, in a boys imagination
Ooh, ooh, I'm dancing on the telephone
Operator, high anticipation
Cool exchange, in a boys imagination
Ooh, ooh, I'm dancing on the telephone

Steve Winwood - Dancing For Mental Health
J: What the hell is wrong with you? Ya always make a scene. You gotta push me to the point where I just wanna haul off and smack you.
L: What do you want me for anyway, Jerry?
J: I love you.
L: Do you? Do you love me or who you want me to be?
J: You're a woman with two sides, Linda. One side is everything I want. The other side makes me want to lose my lunch.
L: Huh, you don't love all of me. You only love a part of me. In other words, you don't really love me at all, do you, Jerry?
J: You're not making sense. You're trying to make trouble. I do love you. I just wish you'd quit acting so insecure.
L: I think we need some time apart.
J: What are you talking about? We spend most of our time apart.
L: That's what I mean. You don't understand me. I can't go on feeling these double binds between us.
It would probably take years of conventional marriage counseling to straighten out this relationship. Fortunately for them and many other couples like them, there is another method that is quick, simple and inexpensive. Dancing for mental health.
Anyway you move, mental health is flowing into you.
Nothing left to prove, nothing else to do.
You hear the truth your body hears,
It's in your eyes and in your ears.
Like air, it's flowing into you.
Dancin' osmosis. No hocus pocus.

The record will do the rest.
Nothin' left to lose, mental health is flowing into you.
Nothin' left to choose, nothin' else to do.
You move the way your body does,
It's in your bones and in your blood.
Your heart is filling up with love.
Dancin' osmosis, no hocus pocus.
L: Listen Jerry, I thought I was pregnant and you know why? Because you came inside me and you knew you shouldn't have. You only care about satisfying yourself.
J: You thought you were pregnant and didn't tell me?
L: Why bother? It's my decision.
J: You're wrong, baby. It's our decision.
L: Our decision. I never knew you felt this way about us.
Before you realize what is happening, the dancing for mental health method has started to work.
Turning to the sound, mental health is flowing into you.
Turning you around, how you needed to.
You'll be the one you want to be.
You'll do the things you want to do.
You'll have the things you want to have.
Dancin' osmosis, no hocus pocus.
We return to Jerry and Linda after just one enjoyable evening of dancing for mental health.
L: I can't believe I put you through all that soap-opera suffering and you stayed with me.
J: Instead of just telling you I loved you, I should have listened for what you needed.
L: If you love me or not doesn't seem to matter anymore. It's how much I can love you.
Anyway you move, mental health is flowing into you.
Nothing left to prove, nothing else to do.
You hear the truth your body hears,
It's in your eyes and in your ears.
Like air, it's flowing into you.
Dancin' osmosis, no hocus pocus.
Dancing for mental health will change you and all the people around you.
Will you, won't you, will you, won't you, will you join the dance?
Will you, won't you, will you, won't you, will you join the dance?
Dancin' osmosis.

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers - It Ain't Nothin' To Me
We got a man on the moon
it ain't nothin' to me
We got more comin' soon
it ain't nothin' to me
Got natives in New Guinea with gold in their teeth
Might mean sonthin' to you
It ain't nothin' to me
But when you dance I can go right with you
Yeah when you dance I can go right with you
We got smilin' politicians
Got songs from rich musicians
Called Tokyo long distance and the queen came for tea
Might mean somethin' to you
It ain't nothin' to me
I got a dog on my leg
I'm walking on eggs
Missionaires walking backwards
Touch 'em and they bleed
Might mean somethin' to you
It ain't nothin' to me
Everyone has a message
For avoiding the wreckage
Gypsies at home watching Jerry Falwell on TV
Might mean somethin' to you
It ain't nothin' to me
Absolutely, infinitum!
Oh yes baby that's really something!
Ha! Ha! Ha
Yeah, that's really something!
Ha!

Frank Zappa - Dance Contest
FZ: "One of the things that I like best about playing in New York is this
particular place, because it has - it has a stage that is conducive to, how
you say in the trade, audience participation. Now if there's one thing
that I really like, it's, uh, audience participation. Now listen... I gotta
figure out something that I can, uh - do you think we should have another
dance contest tonight? Oh, bey - the injured person dance contest. Well,

Butch. What's your name?"

to deliver to all the cute people all over the world. If you're out there and you're
not cute, maybe you're beautiful, I just want to tell you somethin' - there's more
of us ugly motherfuckers than you are, hey-y, so watch out. Now..."
GUY (BUTCH?): "Will you bring my girlfriend on stage, maybe?"
FZ: "Sure. All right, now you - he wants to get his girlfriend - go get your girlfriend."
GIRL: "Hey Zap!"
FZ: "Good to see you again."
GIRL: "Squeak!"
FZ: "I know."
GUY: "I ain't no fucking queer."
FZ: "All right, now look, here's what we're going to do. Awright. Now. This - it'll
be mashed, I'll save them, I'll save them for later."
GUY: "I'm not a fucking queer."

He's not queer, he's not queer. Awright, and now. .. You are going to dance, like
you've never danced before ..."

Prince - Dance On
Ow!
Pick it up!
There's a bass guitar in this
Ow! {x4}
Grenade launcher roars in a television sky
Tell me how many young brothers must die?
Dance on, dance on
Dance on, dance on
Little talk Johnny blew the big score
The gang nailed his feet 2 a wooden floor
Nuclear ban never stays in tune
They all know the words but the music is doomed
Everybody dance on, dance on, ooh!
Dance on, dance on
Pick it up!
Ow!
Dance on, dance on {x3}
A bass guitar in spider webs longin' 4 the funk
Uzi gun takes its place in a wagon trunk
(Get off me, punk! U ain't sexy)
Stealin' ladies' purses then settin' them aflame
M&M killers playin' Mickey Mouse games
Lord have mercy
Dance on, dance on (Dance on)
Dance on, dance on (Dance on)
It's time 4 new education
Former rules don't apply
We need a power structure that breeds production
Instead of jacks who vandalize
Detroit - what's happenin'?
What color is your money 2day? {Phrases repeat and fade out}
Get your money straight
Everybody dance on
Dance on
