Whenever I hear "You Can't Stop the Beat" from HAIRSPRAY, I feel obligated to get up and perform the choreography. I was in Gristedes in NYC the other day and the radio commercial for HAIRSPRAY came on and there I was, in aisle four, performing Jerry Mitchell's choreography. There must be some sort of subliminal messaging in that song... "You will dance now... You *will* dance..."

"Dance at the Gym from West Side Story"

You mean I'm not the only one who holds out my arms and snaps my fingers when the notes to "Maria" come in?

Good to know.

Wow, I dance to like every song cause I'm such a loser like that.

Even songs that people don't normally dance to, I feel like I have to dance, so I make up my own choreography and dance around my room.

Are they out there???? (I always laugh at Richard Beymer's very fake NYC accent :) He was so cute though!)

My dance to "Don't Tell Mama" from Cabaret is a sight to behold. The Dance at the Gym is another favorite, and by the time America comes on, I've put on my sassy dress that I wear whenever I listen to WSS, so then I can cha cha even better.

And of course, La Vie Boheme makes me want to get up and bump and grind.
