If The Music Is Good, You *DANCE* {#Dchic Top 5 Downloads}

If the music is good, You Dance!

This is a quote I live and breathe by! Since my first pair of tiny little ballet slippers to accompany my pink tights and black leotard I knew dancing and music would play a major role in my life.

I was raised listening to “oldies” ya know, stuff like the Temptations and the Drifters. Of course being a southern girl country music was always another go to genre. It’s a running joke with a few of my girlfriends that The Ashley family sits around jammin’ to “Cool Country Classics” every Saturday night; AND why yes, as a kiddo that is exactly what we did. I wouldn’t give anything for those precious memories.

Of course, as we grow we start getting a little rebellious…honestly, I think my parents could see this one coming a mile away. Might have been the Saturday mornings I would skip cartoons to prep for the living dance sesh that was about to go DOWN as soon as Soul Train came on or the weekly video segments I recorded of my “spin-off” to Soul Train that I so proudly dubbed “Dance Till You Drop”. Yeap, hours upon hours of VHS videos of me solo dancing in my room, garage, outside-basically, wherever the camcorder could be propped worked as a perfect location.

So, after oldies and country I moved on to Paula Abdul, Debbie Gibson, Tiffany, and duh NKOTB {Jordan Knight + Tiffany Ashley=FOREVER}. The Parents were all totally ok with these artist but, when they started to hear Salt-n-Pepa, and Ice Cube’s “It was a Good Day” beating through the speakers of their daughters room, they surly thought they had lost their little girl forever!

Oh bless their sweet hearts!

At 31, I am STILL as obsessed with music and bustin’ a move. In all honesty, there are so many days I dream of a life as a DJ “spinnin’ the ones and twos”!! I SWEAR, I was destined to be a DJ…but, since that must be coming in my next life, for now I just pump my music 24-7 (the louder the better) and rock any jukebox that crosses my path!! Oh and you can believe that even today there are weekly solo dance parties in my home!
