Dance crazes, routines or fads, such as Saturday Night, Macarena, Asereje, Gangnam Style or Watch Me Whip Nae Nae dance, are very polarizing. Do you enjoy or hate them? Vote and tell us which of them you like or despise the most
We’ve all seen this before. A song starts playing in a club or party and suddenly almost everybody runs to the dance floor and starts making (more or less) the same moves. The first time you see these dance crazes they may take you by surprise and you may think they are ridiculous. But gradually, afer some exposure, you get used to them and soon after you may find yourself dancing them. There are many songs that have a specific dance routine and we want to know how you feel about them: do you love them or do you hate them?
Dance crazes and dance routines
Dance routines, sometimes also called fad dances or dance crazes, are not a new phenomenon. These are dances that become very popular and keep people dancing the same simple choreography over and over again at clubs, discotheques, bars, festivals, banquets, wedding receptions, parties, events. Usually they are associated with simple and somewhat repetitive, but very catchy music.
Some date their origins back to the Renaissance balls in Europe and it seems that the first worldwide dance craze in contemporary times started in 1950s, with the “Twist”, the "Mashed Potato" or "The Pony". Although in the case of these songs, the dance was distinguished by the style of the dance movement and not by a particular dance routine. The “Chicken Dance” and the “YMCA” are also songs for which almost everybody know the dance routine. The "Macarena", in the 1990s, "The Ketchup Song (Asereje)" in the 2000s, "Gangnam Style" a few years ago and currently Watch Me (Whip / Nae Nae)” are more recent examples of fad dances that have become a global phenomenon.
What do you think about these dances? Do you usually learn the routines and enjoy dancing with everybody else? Or do you find dance crazes annoying?

HACK VANISH Credit specialist did it for me. Before the coronavirus pandemic, I had criminal Judgments, few evictions, and missed / late payment which negatively impacted my credit score down to 487 and left me in difficult financial situation, as a single mum of 3, I needed a loan to keep the family running after I lost my husband as a result of COVID-19, all hope were lost, until Mr. Kannan and Olivia reassured and referred me to HACK VANISH, a credit genius who was very helpful in fixing my report after I reached out to him via: +1(650) 499 5548 and Email: hackvanish (At) gmail (Dot) com, I carefully followed his protocols, throughout the process which lasted for about 6 days, I felt so involved because he maintained an open line of communication till I got my score back to 796, currently my loan application has been approved, I can now give my kids better life. If you need to hire a hacker, HACK VANISH is highly recommended.
