There's something about trance. Gets your mood skyrocketing in nanoseconds. The bass, it hits right onto your brain, and the thump, it automatically makes you tap your feet with the beat. A loose tank top, a pair of rugged jeans, ballet pumps, rumpled hair, and a playlist of the grooviest numbers of all time, now that is a feeling worth dying and killing for! No matter how much you call a party a social affair, the sole reason I attend parties is to hit the floor. Two mugs of beer, and a lonely corner to trip the light fantastic toe - I'm sorted for the entire night. However, for that to happen, you better have a playlist that makes people begging for more. On that account, allow me to enlist the most amazing dance songs that leave the crowd craving for more beats and even more thump. You know, I gotta feeling that I'm gonna getcha good with the Temperature soaring high, only if you stand by me. Oh Yeah!!

Top 10 Dance Songs

There's nothing quite like playing the numbers that are most loved by the crowd. During the afterhours when tie-knots are loosened, mind is everything but sane, and you're high on life, the following dance numbers (both 2012 and 2011 picks) are the best ones to play. Don't believe me? Try 'em numbers out. You're going to love the response from the crowd.

I know, you aren't quite amused with this listing for there are a myriad songs dedicated to dance and partying. However, believe me, it took me really long to scroll through a number of U.S. chartbusters lists to be able to bring to you all the dance songs. I do not know what does it take to make an all-inclusive compilation. All I know is, a single play of any of the above instanced groovy dance numbers is enough to set the stage on fire. They're promising enough to be on your party playlist and stay there, for a longtime.
