Songs of the moment- Club Edition




This summer is certainly turning out to be one of my favourites.  I’m going out more, trying new things- basically, I’m living the motto #YOLO!

I’ve never been much of a clubber, but a friend of mine has dragged me out (I mean that in the nicest possible way!), to a few lounges and clubs in the city and guess what...?  I’m hooked!  I love the music, the dancing (I have actually fist pumped like I was a cast member of Jersey Shore!).  I’ve had so much fun that I returned the favour and dragged one of my “non club” friends to a lounge to get her party on too.

Since I’ve been a permanent fixture in da club lately, there are a few songs that seem to get the crowd- and myself —boogying on the dance floor.  Here are a rundown of the club bangin’ songs.


Glad You Came, The Wanted

Don’t you feel like you’re on an exotic isle when you hear this song?  If it weren’t for the spilled drinks, and the DJ in the corner, I could swear that I was laying on a beach in Ibiza.  





What Makes You Beautiful, One Direction

Okay, I have noooo idea how The Wanted and One Direction are different, but this single is a fluffy, feel-good song.  C’mon, who doesn’t feel happy when you hear the chorus, “What Makes You Beautiful”?

 


I love the fact that when this song comes on— EVERYBODY knows the words.  LOL!  I unashamedly get my sexy strut on when this song plays.  Such a guilty pleasure!

 
Call Me Maybe, Carly Rae Jepsen

I know you’ve probably heard this song a million times, but dammit, it’s infectious.  It’s poppy, cute, and sweet—everything you want in a summer song. Plus Carly is a fellow Canadian.  Represent!

Somebody That I Used Yo Know – dance version, Gotye feat Kimbra

I think it’s genius that there is a dance remix to this song. No, I’m not being sarcastic—I really mean it. I completely love the original, and now there’s a version that I can dance to.  Awesome!!


  
Where HaveYou Been,  Rihanna

Actually, most bars/lounges/clubs play Rihanna’s entire repertoire (which makes me an incredibly happy girl!), but her latest song—Where Have You Been, is def my song of the moment.  I love the lyrics, and the sexy vibe.  This could definitely turn into my summer anthem.



The Motto, Drake

I like dance music, but I loooove hip hop and r&b.  So if Where Have You Been is my dance song of the moment, The Motto is my hip hop song of the moment.   I love the sick beat and the utter bravado this song exudes.  Although Drake is at his cockiest on this single, I still love it. 

What songs get you moving in the club?  Let me know!
