Hi and happy Tuesday! Hope you had a great weekend and Monday!
I have decided to change Thursday Tunes to Tuesday Tunes. Then on Thursday, I will be adding Thursday Throwbacks.
Thursday Throwbacks will include old pictures, old quotes, and I may even revisit an old blog or two. This way I have a few more days of items to write about!
Today’s Tuesday’s Tunes is about My Favorite Dance Music.
As I mentioned in Friday’s blog, there are a few songs that I cannot just listen to, but have to get up and dance. Over the weekend, I thought of a few more and decided to include them in my blog.
You will notice that a lot of them are from the 1980s and 1990s, with a few from the 1970s. This is the time that I went out dancing a lot and many of these are the songs that I loved then and still do today.
During my senior year of college, my friend Dawn and I went out almost every weekend to a neighboring city to dance. We went to a great place where we had a lot of friends. Both of us were mainly about the dancing and it was so much fun!
Not all of these were played at this club, but I liked to dance to them on the radio or other places. In more recent years, I have enjoying dancing with my neighbors at the beach! That is fun too.
These bring back such great memories for me! I looked up a few lists online to find these treasures!
What are some of your favorite dance songs? Please share them.
