For the amount of listens I’ve given Halcyon Days, I really should check out Ellie Goulding’s first album.

It’s been my experience that this song is almost guaranteed to be played at least once, and nearly every wedding reception.
This single song’s been not just present for, but been a big motivation behind my change in attitude towards dancing over the years.
Growing up, the mere thought of dancing would bring on the intense anxiety, and fear of not only looking awkward, but being judged by spectators. At some point, Billy Jean came along, and it was less of a big deal to just move to the music. I stopped worrying about what people might think and just focused on what was important: having fun.
In retrospect, the switch to a more pop-focused sound in this song, almost seems like a preview of Tegan and Sara’s Heartthrob album.
For some reason, the line in this song’s always sounded like “sweet muffins” to me.
I’m still riding that post-wedding happy-dance high. Congratulations to my incredible friends and family who’ve tied the knot, and thrown two of the best parties I’ve ever been to.
This might just be my favourite song to dance to at weddings.
The Rolling Stones’ disco-influenced songs tend to get a bit of a bad rap, but I’ve always enjoyed them.
I came across this one listening to Dyro’s podcast.
While Business Casual was a pretty solid album, everything I’ve heard from this latest Chromeo release sounds like it could be their best record yet.
Back from my sister’s wedding, and this was a definite highlight.
Going forward, I’ll probably always associate this song with busting a move alongside two elderly Italian ladies.
