Moopy's Greatest Dance Anthems - Semi-Final 4: THE RESULTS

[jyxz]

Well I didn’t vote for this bollocks

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I enjoyed this, but I'd also never heard it before this contest and there were too many other things that required my points.

Oh REALLY?

 

[COB]

Donna doing SAW couldn't NOT get one of my 5s

 

[ButterTart]

@Alla, get screaming lad.

Donna Summer - This Time I Know It's For Real. This came fifteenth.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

So many adverts this evening!

 

[ButterTart]

You can really smell Pete Waterman all over this one, can't you?

 

[ButterTart]

So many adverts this evening!

Are you watching it on your telly?

 

[Kate]

Had to sadly ditch this by deciding it was pop not dance, but it was in there for a while.

 

[dmlaw]

I assume that the definitive Kelly Llorenna version will be coming up in the next semi final.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

This is obviously an ALL TIME GREAT FULL STOP!

I think we're in THE GAY INTEREST SECTION.

 

[COB]

Oh REALLY?

Yeah, I've just realised I don't really know any Mariah remixes AT ALL except that one really really ludicrous gay mix of Triumphant (Get 'Em).

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Had to sadly ditch this by deciding it was pop not dance, but it was in there for a while.

And yet WHITE TOWN?!

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Are you watching it on your telly?

yup

 

[AGinAg (37)]

You can really smell Pete Waterman all over this one, can't you?

Well he'd pissed himself.

 

[ButterTart]

This is obviously an ALL TIME GREAT FULL STOP!

I think we're in THE GAY INTEREST SECTION.

Yes, we definitely are.

 

[dmlaw]

There were quite a few great songs in this semi that I didn't vote for because they don't quite fit my definition of a dance anthem including Abba, Blondie, White Town and Primal Scream.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Yay ABBA qualified!

 

[Kate]

And yet WHITE TOWN?!

Yes well I was just about to say... I'm a hypocrite OKAY

 

[ButterTart]

Yes, we definitely are.

...because here comes ABBA, which is a name even Pete Waterman can spell. This came 25th.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

This is NOT the video!

 

[ButterTart]

Kathy Burke was a revelation in this.

 

[ButterTart]

This is NOT the video!

The official video was mega quiet.

 

[ButterTart]

SEXY DISCO BREAKDOWN

 

[COB]

Amazing obvs, but also makes me think of Tish from League of Gentlemen...
"That queer from Gimme Gimme - love that show"

 

[dmlaw]

Kathy Burke was a revelation in this.

There was a good few years where I hated this song largely on account of that piece of shit. I'm much better now.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

This is absolutely a dance track!

Know your heritage bitches!

 

[Alla]

@Alla, get screaming lad.

Donna Summer - This Time I Know It's For Real. This came fifteenth.

Having dinner out for the first time in more than 3 months, it deserve an AAAAHHHH too

 

[ButterTart]

I thought the blonde one was wearing a head brace. It was her headphones but she'd put them on wrong.

 

[dmlaw]

Gala. Amazing. That's two qualifiers for me tonight.

 

[COB]

Gala! @straightorbroken will be overjoyed (as am I)

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Ooh Gala 2.

 

[ButterTart]

Ever wondered what would happen if Johnny Vegas gargled broken glass and then did karaoke?

It's GALA - Let a Boy Cry (and let a stand-in sing). This came 26th.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Let A Boy Cry is such a treat.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

...I don't get this either...

 

[Kate]

As previously mentioned I cannot deal with those vocals, but I do like the "woh oh ohhh" bits and damn she is FIT.

 

[ButterTart]

She's ridiculously fit and has charisma for days. I just can't understand this vocal.

 

[Raining on Me]

Ooh @Raining On Me is here too! Thanks for your vot... oh.

I was too busy arguing with the other half as always, and reading the veg thread. It's very difficult. Also I'm pissed and I don't get people who can post at high frequency when mashed. This has been a shitty week

That said I REALLY meant to vote in this one. Oh well, next time! There must be at least 10 more?

I am listening however. There's a reason that Billie Ray Martin thread was famous around here. What a song, what an album, what a woman, what a creation!

 

[AGinAg (37)]

A 90s gay kiss

 

[ButterTart]

damn she is FIT.

THIS. She looks fucking AMAZING in this video, and she's got a proper expressive face.

 

[dmlaw]

I get what people are saying about the vocals, but I suspect that it's probably really hard for a woman to sing that low and still enunciate the lyrics.
