I'm going to see Faithless at Manchester Evening News Arena on Saturday 4 December  ...

Faithless - "Insomnia" (Monster Mix) is one of the best dance anthems. This version has got a particularly cool intro.

"Insomnia" (Moody Mix) - is interesting.

Pet Shop Boys - Go West. And of course there are the originals of that, i.e. the Village People. In the Navy is their best one, IMHO.

@ Olivier & Wiga: if you're looking for anthemic DM songs, I don't think anything beats this one (of course in its original studio version), which has always been a big fav of mine.

@ Sir M.: "Analogue Bubblebath" isn't Aphex Twin - it's AFX. :) OK, it's always Richard D. James, but apparently his various aliases count quite a lot from a musical point of view. Anyway, that tune is cool. :cool:

Yep, it's true; I just wasn't up to making that separation. I don't even know if James takes those monikers seriously anyway...

If you're going to be pedantic Ugo then since when is Go West by the Pet Shop boys dance music?    ;)

@ TOBY: well, the original "Go West" was a dance tune, wasn't it? So why shouldn't a cover of it be a dance tune? :) After all, PSB have often been on the border between pop and dance.

@ Olivier: what are the videos that you can't see? I'll try posting other copyright-free links. Here's one for "Enjoy the Silence", I hope it works.

Off topic: this has nothing to do with dance music, but I just discovered it and I think it's so damn funny that I definitely have to link it here. Peter Kay as Geraldine McQueen - The Winner's Song. (There is a better, proper music video of this on YouTube, but I guess that Vevo won't show it everywhere. :D)

Ugo, couldn't see the videos that only had a link, so I didn't even know what they were about. Now I know it's Enjoy The Silence, which I do, and even more being silent. I prefer Never Let Me Down Again, it builds up better. Enjoy The Silence sounds too much like springs in my opinion. But since you admitted being a Beatles fan, I can see why you love it. ;) That being said, my 2nd favorite from them. It's all digital sounding and then the blonde guy lets his guitar creak, magical... a bit like Dark Star in a way. Do you know if the guy in the back behind a keyboard makes as much money as the others? He doesn't seem to do much.

Personally, I put Pet Shop Boys in my dance playlist. Pop, it's more things like Dido.

Sorry, I don't understand. What do you mean by "springs"? The reason why I prefer that song to NLMDA is that I find the latter a bit repetitive, both in the lyrics and in the melody. I think EtS has a better development on both areas. However, I agree with you on the build-up.

Sounds like boing boing boing to me. Makes me jump like a Beatle. NLMDA makes me wave my arms.
