What a girl wants, what a girl needs who’s to say? But GIRLS (plural) – just wanna have fun. (Doy!) That was one of my favorite movies as a youngin, and if I think about it long and hard enough, it was probably the inspiration behind Dance Dance Party Party. Specifically – this scene:
I hope you took 6 minutes and 8 seconds to watch that video. Assuming that you did – I mean, COME ON! Who doesn’t want to dance their face off after such a dramatic win? That’s how I feel at some point during every DDPP. Like Sarah Jessica Parker, but without the dude, and wishing I could find an outfit like that at Village Discount.
So last night, I brought the inspiration along and embedded it in my play list. Yes – Dancing in Heaven. The very song that brought SJP such triumph and glory! Jenn Martin pointed out that I accidentally (or not? hmmm) included another song from that movie. The one SJP and Helen Hunt get down at for try outs. You know it – Dancing in the Streets. It doesn’t matter what you wear – just as long as you get down to DDPP one of these nights.
Thanks to all who came out in the chilly, lunar eclipse. I think we all realized some important things- namely, Kenny Loggins is pretty damn hot, Stevie Wonder does the best Beatles cover of anyone (ever), and you need to rent Girls Just Wanna Have Fun again, stat.

AAARRRRGGGHHHH!!!! I miss a DDPP and Cornershop was on the playlist!!!!!! Jenn, I forgive you for liking SJP because you played Cornershop ! I missed it!
Toni! I had no idea you loved Cornershop so much and disliked SJP so much! I’ll make sure next playlist I make I include more of the former than the latter. I do not vouch for Parker and her work post 1985.
Thank you Jenn! I’ve made multiple playlists in my head and SJP is not on one but Cornershop sure is! See ya Sunday!
