Black Lace - Dance moves

My name is voddy and I know lots of dodgy dance moves, including those two.

I feel strangely liberated for having said that

? I was having second thoughts about my confession and was just about to delete this thread!

Oops! Sorry ?

I love agadoo. Do you remember the single had the dance moves printed on the back of the sleeve? Not that they were hard to remember!

Oh yes, & I think its a skill to be proud of?

Wig wam bam sham a lam

<Holds hand up> my gramps had a Black Lace record and I have a permanent 'bump' from slightly over excited Superman dancing ?

(in my defence I was about 8 at the time ?)

I think there are subliminal lessons in the art of 'this type of song' dance. I also think they happen at the same time as the subliminal lessons around 'hair dryer - their point and function' - I do know that I missed out on both and have stood confused while female friends have without thought danced along to these tracks.

Wig Wam Bam was / is a family song. Every Xmas and New Year it comes out. Much to my OH's and various other partners amusement / horror!

After a few drinks we generally end up jumping the wrong way or slapping our hands a little too enthusiastically!

I love black lace.

Ahhhhh! I am not alone. Super.

RaeF - it's the wig wam bam dance that bothers him the most ?

I can see why Luthien!!

If you've never heard / seen it and sddenly 20 drunken people at a party (in my case) rush the dancefloor and start a synchronized weirdo dance to a song about who knows what I can imagine it's quite worrying!!

I love it - must make sure the DJ has it at the wedding and youtube it! will be sure to dedicate it to you!

?

Superman was such a great song, loved the actions, don't know why they don't play it more often! Time warp is another similar one at about the same time. What about the spitting image chicken song, something along the lines of 'hold a chicken in the air, stick a deck chair up your nose....' Think I'm getting carried away now!

Haha!

Think the weddings off as I just did wig wam bam and superman for OH. He not looking so sure!

<pushes pineapple> <shakes tree>

I love black lace and also know all the moves. We used to go on holiday to the caravan parks where it was a daily feature at the family discos. In addition to Black Lace there was also the YMCA. I can actually do the YMCA moves backwards and roll it out as my party trick when appropriate, and people are always impessed.

We had superman as our second song at our wedding. I know all the moves and it is most definitely our song.

I know the guy who played guitar on Superman. Want me to ask? ?

He's never heard of the Superman song? I would suggest to him that HE is the odd one. What sort of a childhood can you have without standing on a dark dancefloor pretending to spray your armpits with deodorant? [incredulous icon]

This thread *may* have encouraged Mr FtG and I to youtube Superman, and then sit, side-by-side, in front of the computer, doing to the actions.

No alcohol involved.?

I certainly did/do know all the dance moves. I bloody loved Black Lace when I was a pre-teen!

Superman was one of my favourite party songs! Can't beat a bit of Wig Wam Bam, Agadoo and others either!

At my mum and dad's house somewhere is a my copy of 'Black Lace's Party Album' my last ever pressie from Santa!

Apparently one of my history teachers from school used to be in Black Lace (an early incarnation I would guess). was about to google to see if it was a true fact (or an old school rumour) but I can't remember his name! ?

I remember my brother at about the age of 4 doing the superman moves on top of a stool at my sisters birthday party. He was surrounded by 11 year old girls (and me!). Bless him. We could make him do anything we wanted him to do! lol.

ring any bells?

a friend of my sister's used to live with one of them. (he was quite a bit older than her) i can't remember which one though

Nope! Still none the wiser ?
