Wake Up, It’s Sunday Night
The end of yet another weekend and for those who are younger then I, that could mean a night out of dancing and having fun, maybe even both nights of celebrating. Hell, I know I used to cut a rug every weekend. But alas now, I am more sedentary and of course spend all my free time working on this blog that I hope some of you enjoy every now and then.
I keeping with this theme, I would like to share with you a quick and fun post. This is the backdrop to how this came about; ’all day I have been running this song in my brain, non stop. For what reason I have no clue’. But I am sure we have all had a similar experience a few times a year if not more.
The culprit song is Dirty Diana performed by the late King Of Pop: Michael Jackson. I did not hear this song at all today, yet there it was swirling around between my ears until I started to hum it and then sing a few of the lines that I could remember on the way home.
As soon as I got home I immediately pulled it up on You Tube and listened to it. So I wanted to share it with you also by embedding it here. I do hope that it doesn’t get removed, or this post will really suck. A build up for nothing.
But just in case they do remove it from this post, which is very possible, I have added two more great songs from the eighties, that always got people up to dance.
(Those of you who are younger and haven’t danced to them, can go suck an egg. Ya bastids. ) Or better yet, dance to them now. Go get your sister or brother, mom or dad, and get your boogie on!!
ADDENDUM: I was trying to find two back up songs for you to listen to, just in case the first one does become unavailable. I ended up picking out five. I could have easily picked out 50 or 100. Perhaps I will make this a Sunday Night staple. The other four songs are from the 80′s except Mark Morrison’s “Return Of The Mack” I believe that was the early 90′s.
So crank it up and believe me, these will put a smile on your face and get your body a moving. Until tomorrow, Be Well
“DIRTY DIANA” MY FAVORITE MJ SONG
CHAKA CHAN “AIN’T NOBODY’
MARK MORRISON “RETURN OF THE MACK”
EVELYN “CHAMPAGNE” KING “LOVE COME DOWN”
SOS BAND “JUST BE GOOD TO ME”

OOOOOOOO…WEEEEEE I guess that’s how that sound is spelled. I love every one of these (up dancing….and dancing….and dancing….and dancing….sweat really popping now). Ok…short of breath. THANKS!
Its a Sunday night party here! Great selection, do you DJ part-time? Make a trip to Vegas, you just may have another 15 minutes of fame
Well, I am not much of a dancer but these songs definitely make you want to get up and move. Great selection!!
For the record,I am sure we are all happy that you are too old to be out dancing every night because we all enjoy this blog so much. Your hard work does not go unnoticed. I know I definitely appreciate the work you put into this site.
Okay, time to go back and get my groove on!
Have a good one!
Hi Glenn, As I type this comment I am groovin’ with my peeps at “The Compound” on the edge of a friggin’ jungle in the Philippines. We are dancing to the Chaka Khan tune since disco is still popular with Filipinos. For that matter, Michael Jackson is also loved here, and the news of his death is just reaching some of the locals that are taking it pretty hard.
Well, gotta go, my 77 year old mother-in-law,The Feared Giant Lizard Killer, has had one too many San Miguels and is starting to puke all over the place. Whew! Thanks for the music. I have to get out of this place!
LOVE LOVE LOVE that song. All of your choices were great but i do love me some Dirty Diana! I don’t know if you are an American Idol watcher but last season there was a great rendition of this song by the short blonde….she ended up getting tossed. She did a fab job on that song.
I remember this one, and now it’s going to be stuck in my head all day. I’m mot a MJ fan though. Just saying.
Have a terrific day Glenn. Big hug.
Hey Glenn, loved this post…but thanks, it’s going to be days before I can get these tunes out of my head!!
Also wanted to say thanks for dropping by my blog today. It’s heartening to know that other bloggers are reading my writings! I’ve had a very enjoyable night reading your blog. Fantastic stuff and I say that as a female reader…it’s great to have such an interesting and amusing insight into the male mind!
