Top 10 Dance Songs of the 1960s

While being a famous actor might be most people’s idea of a dream job, it’s not for everyone. Excruciatingly long hours, complete loss of anonymity, and the harsh glare of media attention all take their toll, and not everyone can stick it out. Whether because of personal tragedy, being fed up with the whole business, or sometimes just nobody wanting to watch you anymore, oof, occasionally celebrities just walk away from acting altogether. I’m Nostalgic Nick for Doyouremember, and today we’re going to be looking at some of the biggest stars who quit the Hollywood rat race to work normal jobs.

Top 10 Dance Songs of the 1960

The Twist became immensely popular because it was much easier to dance to than the harder Rock and Roll. You could learn to twist on the first try and then you could make up your own movements. C'mon let's twist again!

Van Halen dancing in the streets was the best lol

Chubby Checker had so many dance styles invented on his records.He was probably doing the nostalgia circuit in 60s.

When I was young, I taught my mother’s best friend to twist. Little did we know, that I would give her the mumps, too. It was fun…

[djbigpean]

There are also other 1960s dance too, like the Philly dog, the monkey, the swim, boogaloo, the watusi, and the jerk. Also the horse, and tighten up. And of course the Harlem shuffle.

I was born in 63 ! I was late! But still enjoy the old classic

[andrewright]

Love this memory lane. I too danced to the music during these revolutionary times. Kudos for bringing these times forward.

[pattytheseeker]

I was just a little young to remember these songs when they were released. Luckily I had a brother & sister several years older than me & they still played them & we all danced!!!

[groovetube]

It has a good beat and you can dance to it. Every kid interviewed on AB.

Martha and the Vandellas also did "Dance Party", another dance song.
