At last a decent thread to post on :)

I'll nominate some more laters, but for now a Katy Perry classic Firework.

I’ll let the first one go, but after that, I’m thinking ‘dance music’ is being misunderstood. I bloody hope so anyway :)

Last one, if you’re averse to Motown, don’t listen, you’ll only want to know how anything can be as cooking as this...

Some decent tunes on MTV Base. I was listening to it earlier on my daily 6 mile walk - balls were chafing like mad, but the good songs made it less painful.

Back Street - Edwin Starr

This is the record which ‘converted me’ from Tamla Motown to Northern Soul (faster, heavier dance beat). Great vocals from Edwin too, just listen to the lyrics. Sums 1970’s Burnley up perfectly.

I do know that one, great tune. Bend Me, Shape Me, another good tune by Tyrone. ;) A mate has a vast collection of rare soul 45's and we've spent many a day listening to them.
Quite a few are a bit too jazzy for me, I much prefer the Motown beat.
