Yes, I’ve mentioned before — it’s fun to dance like you’re in an iPod commercial. There is just something freeing about dancing with your whole body and giggling and having fun.
Today, while doing some household chores, I had my iPod on (quietly enough to hear everyone), and got to a new song that I downloaded. It’s funny — Eric predicted I would buy it, as I danced around during a recent iPod commercial. But, I told him no. In the end, he was the one who was right. (Yeah, I did type that for the world to see, Eric. Print this blog post up before I have a chance to change it. *wink*)
Anyway…back to the new song I downloaded. I started to dance around with my iPod, but then put it on the docking station with speakers that I have and cranked up the volume.
Of course, Noah promptly informed me that it was too loud and I needed to turn it down. I obliged, but only a little bit. I did suggest he could go in another room while we had what I deemed to be “Our Ultimate Dance Party.” (See what a kind Mom I am to my Asperger’s son? Hey…don’t give me flack, I turned it down some and offered him an option to leave the room. He decided to leave, but came back with light sabers. Apparently this was going to be what he would do in leiu of dancing.)
So, I digress again.
Jack, Molly, and I danced around the kitchen with full force. We sang along, had every inch of our bodies as part of the dancing, complimented each others “mad dance skillz,” and had a great time.
To go along with the iPod dancing theme, we danced to three songs –
- “Around the Bend (Radio Edit)” — The Astroids Galaxy Tour
- “Flathead” — The Fratellis
- “Are You Gonna Be My Girl?” — Jet
So, I figure not only did we have a great time, but 15 minutes of extreme cardio with iPod blasting along has to count as both gym and music instruction, right?
Do you have any favorite songs to dance to full force that we should add to our next Ultimate Dance Party?
