ABBA - Dancing Queen

You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life. Ooo.. see that girl, watch that scene, diggin' the Dancing Queen.

Friday night and the lights are low, looking out for the place to go. Where they play the right music, getting in the swing, you come to look for a king. Anybody could be that guy, night is young and the music's high. With a bit of rock music, everything is fine, you're in the mood for a dance. And when you get the chance...

You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeen. Dancing Queen, feel the beat from the tambourine, oh yeah. You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life. Ooo.. see that girl, watch that scene, diggin' the Dancing Queen.

You're a teaser, you turn 'em on, leave 'em burning and then you're gone. Looking out for another, anyone will do, you're in the mood for a dance. And when you get the chance...

You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeen. Dancing Queen, feel the beat from the tambourine, oh yeah. You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life. Ooo.. see that girl, watch that scene, diggin' the Dancing Queen, diggin' the Dancing Queen...

Gloria Gaynor - I Will Survive

I Will Survive Lyrics

At first I was afraid, I was petrified. Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side. But then I spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong, and I grew strong, and I learned how to get along. And so you're back, from outer space, I just walked in to find you here with that sad look upon your face. I should have changed that stupid lock, I should have made you leave your key, If I've have known for just one second you'd be back to bother me.

Go on now go, walk out the door. Just turn around now, 'cause you're not welcome anymore. Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye? Did you think I'd crumble? Did you think I'd lay down and die?

Oh no, not I, I will survive! Oh, as long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive. I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give, and I'll survive, I will survive, hey hey!

It took all the strength I had not to fall apart. Kept trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart. And I spent oh so many nights just feeling sorry for myself. I used to cry, but now I hold my head up high. And you see me, somebody new, I'm not that chained up little person still in love with you. And so you felt like dropping in and just expect me to be free, but now I'm saving all my loving for someone who's loving me. 

Go on now go, walk out the door. Just turn around now, 'cause you're not welcome anymore. Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye? Did you think I'd crumble? Did you think I'd lay down and die?

Oh no, not I, I will survive! Oh, as long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive. I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give, and I'll survive, I will survive.

Go on now go, walk out the door. Just turn around now, 'cause you're not welcome anymore. Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye? Did you think I'd crumble? Did you think I'd lay down and die?

Oh no, not I, I will survive! Oh, as long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive. I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give, and I'll survive, I will survive, I will survive, I will survive...

Bee Gees - Stayin' Alive

Stayin' Alive Lyrics

Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk, I'm a woman's man—no time to talk. Music loud and women warm, I've been kicked around since I was born.

And now it's all right, It's OK. And you may look the other way. We can try to understand The New York Times' effect on man. Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother, you're stayin' alive, stayin' alive. Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin', people stayin' alive, stayin' alive. Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive. Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive.

Well now, I get low and I get high, and if I can't get either, I really try. Got the wings of heaven on my shoes, I'm a dancin' man and I just can't lose.

You know it's all right, It's OK. And you may look the other way. We can try to understand The New York Times' effect on man. Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother, you're stayin' alive, stayin' alive. Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin', people stayin' alive, stayin' alive. Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive. Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive.

Life’s goin' nowhere. Somebody help me. Somebody help me, yeah. Life’s goin' nowhere. Somebody help me, yeah. Stayin' alive.

Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk, I'm a woman's man—no time to talk. Music loud and women warm, I've been kicked around since I was born.

And now it's all right, It's OK. And you may look the other way. We can try to understand The New York Times' effect on man. Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother, you're stayin' alive, stayin' alive. Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin', people stayin' alive, stayin' alive. Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive. Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive.

Life’s goin' nowhere. Somebody help me. Somebody help me, yeah. Life’s goin' nowhere. Somebody help me, yeah. I’m stayin' alive...(repeat to fade)

The Village People - YMCA

YMCA Lyrics

Young man, there's no need to feel down. I said, young man, pick yourself off the ground. I said, young man, 'cause you're in a new town, there's no need to be unhappy. Young man, there's a place you can go. I said, young man, when you're short on your dough. You can stay there, and I'm sure you will find many ways to have a good time.

It's fun to stay at the y-m-c-a. It's fun to stay at the y-m-c-a. They have everything for you men to enjoy, You can hang out with all the boys ... It's fun to stay at the y-m-c-a. It's fun to stay at the y-m-c-a. You can get yourself clean, you can have a good meal, You can do what about you feel ...

Young man, are you listening to me? I said, young man, what do you want to be? I said, young man, you can make real your dreams. But you got to know this one thing! No man does it all by himself. I said, young man, put your pride on the shelf, And just go there, to the y.m.c.a. I'm sure they can help you today.

It's fun to stay at the y-m-c-a. It's fun to stay at the y-m-c-a. They have everything for you men to enjoy, You can hang out with all the boys ... It's fun to stay at the y-m-c-a. It's fun to stay at the y-m-c-a. You can get yourself clean, you can have a good meal, You can do what about you feel ...

Young man, I was once in your shoes. I said, I was down and out with the blues. I felt no man cared if I were alive. I felt the whole world was so tight ... That's when someone came up to me, And said, young man, take a walk up the street. There's a place there called the y.m.c.a. They can start you back on your way.

It's fun to stay at the y-m-c-a. It's fun to stay at the y-m-c-a. They have everything for you men to enjoy, You can hang out with all the boys ...

Y-m-c-a ... you'll find it at the y-m-c-a. Young man, young man, there's no need to feel down. Young man, young man, get yourself off the ground. Y-m-c-a ... you'll find it at the y-m-c-a. Young man, young man, there's no need to feel down. Young man, young man, get yourself off the ground. Y-m-c-a ... just go to the y-m-c-a. Young man, young man, are you listening to me? Young man, young man, what do you wanna be?

The B-52's - Love Shack

Love Shack Lyrics

If you see a faded sign by the side of the road that says 15 miles to the... Love Shack! Love Shack yeah

I'm headin' down the Atlanta highway, lookin' for the love getaway. Heading for the love getaway, love getaway, I got me a car, it's as big as a whale and we're headin' on down To the Love Shack. I got me a Chrysler, it seats about 20, so hurry up and bring your jukebox money.

The Love Shack is a little old place where we can get together. Love Shack baby, Love Shack bay-bee. Love baby, that's where it's at, Ooo love baby, that's where it's at

Sign says.. Woo... stay away fools, 'cause love rules at the Lo-o-ove Shack! Well it's set way back in the middle of a field, Just a funky old shack and I gotta get back.

Glitter on the mattress, glitter on the highway, glitter on the front porch, glitter on the hallway.

The Love Shack is a little old place where we can get together. Love Shack bay-bee! Love Shack baby! Love Shack, that's where it's at!

Huggin' and a kissin', dancin' and a lovin', wearin' next to nothing 'cause it's hot as an oven. The whole shack shimmies! The whole shack shimmies when everybody's movin' around and around and around and around!

Everybody's movin', everybody's groovin' baby! Folks linin' up outside just to get down. Everybody's movin', everybody's groovin' baby. Funky little shack! Funk-y little shack!

Hop in my Chrysler, it's as big as a whale and it's about to set sail! I got me a car, it seats about twenty, so c'mon and bring your jukebox money.

The Love Shack is a little old place where we can get together Love Shack baby! Love Shack bay-bee! (Love Shack...Love Shack...) Love Shack, that's where it's at!

Bang bang bang on the door baby! Knock a little louder baby! Bang bang bang on the door baby! I can't hear you! Bang bang on the door baby! Bang bang on the door! Bang bang on the door baby! Bang bang... You're what? Tin roof, rusted!

Love Shack, baby Love Shack! Love Shack, baby Love Shack! Love baby, that's where it's at. Love Shack, baby Love Shack! Love baby, that's where it's at Huggin' and a kissin', dancin' and a lovin' at the love shack.

Jackson 5 - Blame It On The Boogie

Blame It On The Boogie Lyrics

My baby's always dancin', and it wouldn't be a bad thing, but I don't get no loving and thats no lie. We spent the night in Frisco, at every kind of disco, from that night I kissed our love goodbye.

Don't blame it on sunshine, don't blame it on moonlight, don't blame it on good times - blame it on the boogie. Don't blame it on sunshine, don't blame it on moonlight, don't blame it on good times - blame it on the boogie.

The nasty boogie bugs me, but somehow it has drugged me. Spellbound rhythm get me on my feet I've changed my life completely. I've seen the lightning leave me, my baby just can't take her eyes off me.

Don't blame it on sunshine, don't blame it on moonlight, don't blame it on good times - blame it on the boogie. Don't blame it on sunshine, don't blame it on moonlight, don't blame it on good times - blame it on the boogie.

I just can't I just can't I just can't control my feet I just can't I just can't I just can't control my feet

Don't blame it on sunshine, don't blame it on moonlight, don't blame it on good times - blame it on the boogie. Don't blame it on sunshine, don't blame it on moonlight, don't blame it on good times - blame it on the boogie.

The magic music grooves me, the dirty rhythm moves me, the devil's gotten to me. Through his dance I'm full of funky fever, and fire burns inside me, boogie's got me in a super trance. 

Don't blame it on sunshine, don't blame it on moonlight, don't blame it on good times - blame it on the boogie. Don't blame it on sunshine, don't blame it on moonlight, don't blame it on good times - blame it on the boogie.

Sunshine. Moonlight. Good times. Boogie. Sunshine. Moonlight. Good times. Boogie. Don't you blame it, you just got to, you just want to yeah! Blame it on yourself, ain't nobody's fault but yours and that boogie. Dancin' all night long. Yours and that boogie. Ain't nobody's fault but yours. Dancin' all night long.

Take That - Never Forget

Never Forget Lyrics

Been on this path of life for so long, feel I've walked a thousand miles, sometimes strolled hand in hand with love - everybody's been there. With danger on my mind I would stay on the line of hope, I knew I could make it. Once I knew the boundaries I looked into the clouds and saw my face in the moonlight. Just then I realised what a fool I could be, just cause I look so high I don't have to see me. Finding a paradise wasn't easy but still, there's a road going down the other side of this hill.

Never forget where you've come here from, never pretend that it's all real, someday soon this will be someone else's dream.

Been safe from the arms of disappointment for so long, feel each day we've come too far, yet each day seems to make much more. Sure is good to be here, I understand the meaning of "I can't explain this feeling". Now it feels so unreal, at night I see the hand that reminds me of the stand I make, the fact of reality.

Never forget where you've come here from, never pretend that it's all real, someday soon this will be someone else's dream.

We've come so far and we've reached so high and we've looked each day and night in the eye. And we're still so young and we hope for more. But remember this: We're not invincible, we're not invincible - No we're only people, we're only people. Hey we're not invincible, we're not invincible. So again I'll tell you:

Never forget where you've come here from, never pretend that it's all real, someday soon this will be someone else's dream.

Take That - Never Forget Video

Tina Turner - The Best

The Best Lyrics

I call you,when I need you, my hearts on fire. You come to me, come to me, wild and wild. You come to me, give me everything I need. Give me a lifetime of promises and a world of dreams. Speak the language of love like you know what it means. And it cant be wrong, take my heart and make it strong, baby.

You're simply the best, better than all the rest, better than anyone, anyone Ive ever met! I'm stuck on your heart, I hang on every word you say. Tear us apart, baby I would rather be dead.

In your heart, I see the start of every night and every day. In your eyes, I get lost, I gtet washed away. Just as long as I'm here in your arms, I could be in no better place.

You're simply the best, better than all the rest, better than anyone, anyone Ive ever met! I'm stuck on your heart, I hang on every word you say. Tear us apart, baby I would rather be dead.

Each time you leave me I start losing control, you're walking away with my heart and my soul. I can feel you even when I'm alone, oh baby dont let go!

And you're the best, better than all the rest, better than anyone, anyone Ive ever met! I'm stuck on your heart, I hang on every word you say. Tear us apart, baby I would rather be dead.

Ooh - you're the best!

Tina Turner - The Best Video

Queen - Don't Stop Me Now

Tonight, I'm gonna have myself a real good time, I feel alive. And the world it's turning inside out. Yeah! I'm floating around in ecstasy.

So don't stop me now don't stop me, 'cause I'm having a good time having a good time...

I'm a shooting star leaping through the skies, like a tiger - defying the laws of gravity. I'm a racing car, passing by like Lady Godiva, I'm gonna go go go - there's no stopping me.

I'm burning through the sky, yeah! Two hundred degrees, that's why they call me Mister Fahrenheit. I'm trav'ling at the speed of light, I wanna make a supersonic man of you.

Don't stop me now, I'm having such a good time, I'm having a ball. Don't stop me now, If you wanna have a good time, just give me a call. Don't stop me now ('Cause I'm having a good time) Don't stop me now (Yes I'm having a good time) I don't want to stop at all.

I'm a rocket ship on my way to Mars, on a collision course, I am a satellite - I'm out of control. I am a sex machine, ready to reload, like an atom bomb - about to oh oh oh oh oh explode.

I'm burning through the sky, yeah! Two hundred degrees, that's why they call me Mister Fahrenheit. I'm trav'ling at the speed of light, I wanna make a supersonic woman of you.

Don't stop me, don't stop me, don't stop me - Hey hey hey! Don't stop me, don't stop me, ooh ooh ooh (I like it). Don't stop me, don't stop me - have a good time, good time. Don't stop me, don't stop me - ooh ooh, alright.

I'm burning through the sky, yeah! Two hundred degrees, that's why they call me Mister Fahrenheit. I'm trav'ling at the speed of light, I wanna make a supersonic woman of you.

Don't stop me now, I'm having such a good time, I'm having a ball. Don't stop me now, If you wanna have a good time, just give me a call. Don't stop me now ('Cause I'm having a good time) Don't stop me now (Yes I'm having a good time) I don't want to stop at all.

Da da da ... (to fade)

Bryan Adams - Summer of '69

I got my first real six-string, bought it at the five-and-dime. Played it 'til my fingers bled, it was summer of '69. Me and some guys from school, had a band and we tried real hard. Jimmy quit and Jody got married, I should o' known we'd never get far.

Oh when I look back now, the summer seemed to last forever. And if I had the choice, yeah - I'd always wanna be there. Those were the best days of my life.

Ain't no use in complainin', when you got a job to do. Spent my evenin's down at the drive in and that's when I met you, yeah.

Standin on your mama's porch, you told me that you'd wait forever. Oh and when you held my hand, I knew that it was now or never. Those were the best days of my life. Oh yeah, back in the Summer of '69, Ohhh! 

Man we were killin' time. We were young and restless, we needed to unwind. I guess nothin' can last forever, forever, no, yeah!

And now the times are changin', look at everything that's come and gone. Sometimes when I play that old six-string I think about ya, wonder what went wrong.

Standin on your mama's porch, you told me that you'd wait forever. Oh and when you held my hand, I knew that it was now or never. Those were the best days of my life. Oh yeah, back in summer of '69,  oh, it was the summer of '69. Just me and my baby yeah in '69, it was the summer, the summer, the summer of '69.

I agree with most of your party tunes. I'd add "Brick House", "Get Down Tonight" and "You Must Be Dancing". Fun Hub.
