10 Songs That Will Have Every Wedding Attendee Showing Off Their Best Worst Dance Moves
Weddings are meant to show the blossoming love and put a stamp on the commitment two people have made to one another. Weddings are meant to be a celebration of both of those facts, and with any celebration there's going to be music. Wonderful, right? NOPE–because, at weddings a person simply can't sit back and enjoy the celebratory music. Observers of the matrimony are prompted to show off their moves on the dance floor. That's when weddings turn from love to "What the hell is going on here?"
If the B-52s only knew what they'd created when they wrote this song, they may not have gone through with it. The stomping and fake knocking by all the worst dancers makes Elaine Benes seem like one of the greatest dancers of all time. You can bet when it kicks in with "If you see a faded sign by the side of the road that says 15 Miles to the…Love Shack!" everybody who shouldn't ever be on a dance floor will pop out of their seat, start bobbing their head and proceed to embarrass themselves.
The meaning behind this song is one of the most inappropriate and seems hilariously ironic to be played at a wedding, especially a heterosexual one, considering the activities that will follow the reception. Aside from the horrifying irony of that, the song also gets horrible dancers out their seats and on their feet. What ensues is not unlike the awkward stamping in place seen in this video.
Now, you can't help but get all jazzed up by this song, but some people should just try to bottle that emotion up rather than letting it out because their gyrating on the dance floor seems straight out of a nightmare. When this song comes on the only thing that should come to people's mind is, "You know you make me wanna shout…how bad of a dancer you are."
This song is candy-coated for bad dancers everywhere considering it comes with its own patented dance. You can't blame bad dancers for always obliging the commands of the Village People in motioning the Y.M.C.A., but it's a maneuver that nobody really wants to see.
Here's another song that comes with its own dance and makes bad dancers feel they should join in on the festivities. However, when you're a bad dancer, following a choreographed dance is even more pathetic, because everyone knows what moves you should be making, and when you're clearly not doing so.
The pulsating beat is the epitome of dance music, but that doesn't mean that everyone should be a part of the action. This is in fact, "Just another night, another vision of love" in celebrating the nuptials of two people in love, it's also Another (wedding) Night full of bad dancing thanks to Real McCoy.
Maybe it's because bad dancers like rock music, but when this song comes on at a wedding you can't you'll see them hitting the floor. This song isn't really something you can shake a leg to, so what follows is three and half minutes of pure weirdness that you'll wish you hadn't experienced or been a part of if you're one of the culprits.
Unfortunately, the dancing that comes as a result of this song being played at a reception is nothing like that of the music video. Instead, you can just plan on seeing something that literally can't be explained by words, so I'll digress.
Essentially what happens when "White Wedding" comes on at a wedding is bad dancers make their way onto the floor and those watching from afar have the natural reflex to start grimacing snarls, not unlike Billy Idol himself, at what they're seeing.
The title of the song says it all: twist and shout. That's what you can expect to see from the worst of the worst dancers ever in the world. The twisting and the shouting from these people is something you'd have to twist people's arm to ever see, and they'd simply shout about its horror.
