I’ve written before about the hilarity that is my children. They have the greatest sense of humours (to which I credit their father) and are very imaginative.
Take for instance the Dance Party that is a staple activity in this house. Random dancing and when we are especially lucky, a fully choreographed lip sync concert. Those are the best.
The dance party revolution that occurs in this house is so vital that when talking to our designer about the main floor plans, it was one way I described how we used the space.
Recently our play list looks mostly like this: The Final Countdown (Europe), Strike it Up (Black Box), Twilight Zone (2 Unlimited), Howling For You (The Black Keys).
Props to my son for having a pretty varied selection. 80s hair rock. 90s dance and current rock.
Twilight Zone brings me back to my teens. I loved that song. It was played during our basketball warm ups. But know where else I remember it from? Some Maple Leaf video that featured Felix “The Cat” Potvin (whom I had a crush on). Hilarious.
Do the songs sound familiar? They are all on the NHL Slap Shot for Wii game – it’s part of the soundtrack. That’s where my son picked up the interest in them (in case you were thinking he just randomly heard me playing my old Dance Mix ’92 CD).
So, for your enjoyment, here’s what’s playing OVER and OVER again at our house. Maybe your children will enjoy them too?
I love that you factored these dance party revolutions into your floor space requirements when talking with your designer…speaks volumes to me of your love of family time.
We can’t give up our dance floor!
Good to see you’ve got your kids dancing to some classics of the 80’s
