I Can´t Dance

No, I don´t like classical ballet and very seldom visit modern dance theatre events. And I must admit - I can´t dance, not even to music I really like. But one of the advantages of getting older is that you don´t care about things like that any more and just do it. So when I´m at a party and the DJ plays one of the songs I just can´t hold my feet still to, you can see me entering the dancefloor, hoping that no one will be watching me ... (Here are 9 songs that force me to do that: Doobie Brothers - Long Train Runnin´, Tina Turner - Nutbush City Limits, Spin Doctors - Two Princes, George Michael - Killer [Papa was a Rolling Stone], INXS - Need you Tonight, U2 - Sunday Bloody Sunday, Led Zeppelin - Whole Lotta Love, Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit, MPeople - Moving On Up ... I know that it´s a strange combination of songs, but can you tell me the tenth for my list please? I´d like to read your personal dancefloor favourites!)
This digital card using images from Tumble Fish Studios with my own scanned backgrounds is my entry for this week´s Sunday Postcard Art challenge themed "Ballet". Oh, and before I forget - there´s a video featuring ballet for one of my favourite but not so well-known songs by Dutch singer Anouk that I really recommend if you have a moment: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xPDYbuaXlA8 - no "Black Swan" for me, I prefer "Birds"!

Ich habe jetzt ein dickes Grinsen im Gesicht ... ist mal wieder total KLASSE, wie du das Thema umgesetzt hast.
Und übrigens: tanzen kann jede/r!!! Wer sagt / bestimmt denn, dass das nach irgendwelchenRegeln erfolgen muss...

Schönen Sonntag & liebe Grüße Katrin

Ja, es gibt so einige Songs, bei denen es einen unweigerlich auf die Tanzfläche zieht, die auf deiner Liste sind es auf jeden Fall!
Ein bisschen schmunzeln musste ich schon bei deiner Ballett-Collage, aber deine Bemerkung, dass du Ballett so gar nicht magst, erklärt alles. Liebe Grüße Ulrike
