Great!  A set of danceable songs about dancing.  It's a shame that it's Tuesday morning and I'm sitting at work...

At first I thought this was the Big I doing the Big O.  I suppose if these guys get big it will be the Big M doing the Big I doing the Big O.

Kinda like how good your head feels after a bad headache.  Of course, it would have been better if the suffering had never happened in the first place.

Old '97's Dance With me, followed by Kings of Convenience, "I'd Rather Dance With You", followed by this song.  On at least 4 different occasions in the last several months....  I like it, but it's time for new playlists!

Yea! Mavericks!! This is fun music but it does take a little effort to get into the groove. At first listen, it may strike you as odd music. But listen a few more times and let your body go!

This album is good but Music For All Occasions is probably their defining work. I've seen them twice and really had fun each time because it's a high energy show and I enjoy Raul's voice.

From your profile, tiggers, it seems as if you are the one that is dead from the feet up.

Love Raul's voice.  So many parallels between his style and Roy Orbison's.

Is this from a movie too, anyone? I can see an ironic application with a Coen's violent murder scene....
