Dance MP3

Dance MP3:

Thousands of dance music MP3s are released every year and of those, only a fraction ever end up as singles. Of those singles, precious few are good enough to be played year after year and become classics. The ones that do become classics, however, take their place in dance music history and are never forgotten.

Some years stand out as banner years for dance music generating more than the average share of classic songs. 1979 was one such year. Donna Summer was the undisputed Queen with hits like "Bad Girls", "Hot Stuff" and "MacArthur Park". Gloria Gaynor scored a major career comeback with "I Will Survive". Gospel singer Anita Ward hit it big with "Ring My Bell" and "Heart of Glass" became Blondie's breakthrough American single.

Another banner year for dance music MP3s was 1989. "Straight Up" by Paul Abdul, Janet Jackson's "Miss You Much", Abdul's "Cold Hearted", "The Look" by Roxette, Madonna's "Like a Prayer", "Forever Your Girl", "Don't Rush Me" by Taylor Dayne and so many other dance songs dominated the charts.

Dance divas ruled the charts again in 1999. Cher's "Believe" became the biggest hit of the year. "Sexual (Li Da Di)" by Amber dominated the club charts. Deborah Cox broke records with "Nobody's Supposed to Be Here". Whitney came back with four #1s: "Heartbreak Hotel", "It's Not Right, But It's OK", "My Love is Your Love" and "I Learned from the Best" (2000).

Every year has it's success stories. "Gonna Make You Sweat" defined the early Nineties dance sound and became the #3 hit of 1993 for Martha Wash and C+C Music Factory. Ace of Base scored three of 1994's top ten hits, "The Sign", "All That She Wants", and "Don't Turn Around". Christina Aguilera, Pink and Destiny's Child all became stars in 2000 with chart hits like "Say My Name", "There You Go", and "What a Girl Wants".
