Topic: Best dance tune of the 90's

[Gilly La]

I was sorting through my old cd's and tapes today, and it dawned upon me that during my clubbing heyday (late 90's) we were blessed with some cracking tunes.
Got me thinking, what were peoples best tunes of this era?

Found a few crackers in particular.

Lover - Paul van Dyk
True love never dies - Rank 1
Dance - Apollo
Silence - Delirium
And the old Paradox favourite - Make the world go round - Sandy B and Camisra.

Anybody else have any favourites?



*I know this music isn't to everyone's taste so if it's not to yours, any chance you could go look at another thread rather than post something dead funny like "dance musics shit" thanks.

[MiniMillsee]

are the spice girls counted as dance?

[Gilly La]

Nah... I mean the tunes you'd hear in the clubs and that.

[Fat Tony]

Insomnia
What is love
Rhythym is a dancer
Sweet like Chocolate
Music sounds better with you

Loads more but can't think right now.

Listened to my Clubland Vol 1 CD a few weeks ago- well got me in the mood to be going out! Some absolutle shockers on there- Logical Song Anyone?- but some great dance tunes to. Reminded me of being 16- just done me GCSE's and goin out to Southport to Infinity (now Havana) and Code- we never got in anywhere in town! It was 2002- not the 90's but I wasnt really in to dance music in that decade!

Heres a little taster:

In My Eyes- Milk Inc
Beautiful- Matt Deary
Set You Free- N Trance
Lover- Rachael MacFarlane (best dance song ever!)

I also really used to like a song called 'Warrior'- used to go "Heres comes your warrior! hes letting you know!" Quality!

Also a song called "It's over now"- which used to be on in The George in Crosby all the flaming time- Hightown Phil will know it!
