GhostdancerJump up and dance!
Oh yeah, "Cha-Cha Latino" is one of those for me. "Todo, Todo, Todo" is another.
There is a Chicago area band known as the Rhythm Rockets whose songs will make me just want to jump up and do a swing.

Danni EvansHmm...
I agree with Let's Get Loud for cha cha.
I also like Smooth, by Santana
Sway (Michael Buble's version, although others are good too)
and pretty much anything from the Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights soundtrack makes me unable to keep still.

danceScapeLove most selections from Michael Buble - Spiderman is a H-O-O-T!
Also:
Hips Don't Lie (Shikira) - Samba, Mambo/Salsa
Maghdelena (Sergio Mendez) - Samba
I Can't Give You Anything But Love (think it's Alma Cogan) - Cha Cha
Maria of My Soul (Antonio Banderas) - Rumba
Theme from Schindler's List - International Style/Interpretive Foxtrot (Charlotte Jorgensen and Andrew Sinkinson are such an inspiration - their demo is forever etched in our minds!)
Askhoken Farewell 2 - Waltz (this is very "interpretive" and builds quietly. Not to everyone's taste, but LOVE this for the simplicity in the beginning and the layering as the piece progresses.)
Also, anybody have the latest Casa Musica Cd's? Any opinions
We usually stick to this brand but maybe there are others out there now with better and consistent selection of music.

vandanI can't sit still on those 2.
Another favourite chacha is sway, not the old dean Martin version, but the 2-year old club version. I still play it often.
