She’s Got Bette Davis Eyes ;)

I LOVE trance music. I live and breathe trance music. But please don’t be a surprised to know that dancing makes me happy, more than drugs can. With trance music, I can dance like there’s no tomorrow; and amazingly, when I can’t fall asleep I listen to trance music.

I may have great love for trance music, but I also listen to other musical genres. Last Saturday, it was retro music time. Haha.

It started with Rihanna’s Don’t Stop the Music video. I don’t know what it is with this song, but my boyfriend seems to be highly fixated on it as of the moment. He downloaded it to his PSP and plays it every other hour. I watched the video and was disappointed that Rihanna did little dancing. To satisfy my thirst for dancing videos, I then searched for the video of Cassie’s Me and U. I like Cassie for her looks and her dancing style. After Cassie, I wanted to see more booty shaking so I searched for old J.Lo videos. I almost forgot about J.Lo’s I’m Glad video, had it not been for Youtube. I wasn’t as crazy for the song as I was for the movie scenes J.Lo parodied in her video, though. It was Flashdance, for crying out loud.

Flashdance has got to be one of the best cult movies of all time! Jennifer Beals CAN dance, and she became iconic for it. I can’t help but feel all giddy when I hear the song Flashdance… What a Feeling. Hahaha. And oh, who can forget Dirty Dancing? I remember loving the song I’ve Had the Time of My Life when I was young. Hee. Of course, you have to throw in Saturday Night Fever too! John Travolta was so great in that movie. Staying Alive, yee.

And then there’s Kim Carnes’ Bette Davis Eyes. It’s not in any movie, if I’m not mistaken, but who can forget Kim Carnes’ husky voice or the infectious guitar riff and drum beat of the song? Definitely not me. There’s this awesomely dance-able house track which samples Bette Davis Eyes. It’s done by Mylo, and it’s called In Your Arms. Click on the play button below to listen to the song. :)

Lovely track, isn’t it? I’ll leave you with another house-remixed old track by DJ Sammy. Guess the title of the track. Clue: it is actually a remix of an Annie Lenox original. Have fun. ;)

OMG…I’ve been having my fix of dance videos as well! This is what I’ve been watching on U-chube: Kevin Brewer (Keibee of Jabbawockeez fame) doing his freestyle to Jazzanova and Clipse; Lando Wilkins, Shaun Evaristo, Boogie Monstarz <3, SGBM, Gentwo, Aimee Lucas (I like girls who dance), etc. etc. etc. I like music you can feel and dance to! I’m listening to Santogold right now.

Leo! Haha. I don’t even know most of the artists you just mentioned. Sorrryy. :P But as long as they make you dance, then it’s cool. Haha. ;)
