Our dance company is hoping to do a performance with all female vocalists. Ideas?

BootsyMarie · « **Reply #1 on:** 26 Aug 2007, 11:49 »

Would I get punched in the face for suggesting Lily Allen?

Or even Amy Winehouse.

Gwen Stefani.

Basically any female vocalist who makes pop music.

*Punches Hillary in the face*

Yes. But it's over now. And it really wasn't so bad, was it?

BootsyMarie · « **Reply #3 on:** 26 Aug 2007, 12:03 »

Except for my black eye, and the pus coming from it...

I guess it wasn't all that bad.

Would M.I.A. work? Her new album is supposed to be stellar.

Stefan Autsa · « **Reply #5 on:** 26 Aug 2007, 15:20 »

Diamanda Galas and/or Hanin Elias.

I tried to dance at a Ladytron show but all I got were nasty looks. Sad state of affairs, that. More people danced to Feist when I saw her live. That doesn't seem right.

Definitely in agreement on Peaches, though. She seems to get a lot of hate for some reason, though.

Lynx & Ram have some good songs to dance to. "Ghost Ship" is fun.

Phaedra · « **Reply #12 on:** 26 Aug 2007, 19:48 »

I back up the Le Tigre recommendations. If you can find the DFA remix of "Deceptacon" (sp?), all the better.

Pelay · « **Reply #13 on:** 27 Aug 2007, 00:42 »

Definatly Le Tigre.
Maybe Imogene Heap...Does Metric count?

Aimless · « **Reply #14 on:** 27 Aug 2007, 02:45 »

Diana Ross!!

Missy Elliot?

GIRLS ALOUD!!!

Hint: It is because she is pretty crap.

Justin Timberlake.

toladdict · « **Reply #19 on:** 09 Sep 2007, 00:13 »

Depends on what sort of dancing it is. But not knowing what you're dancing to, I would suggest Bjork, Stereolab, Portishead, or Freezepop. Rilo Kiley would probably be good, too.

3Z3VH · « **Reply #22 on:** 09 Sep 2007, 21:39 »

What sort of dance is it ? I could suggest everything from The Weekend Players to the old Hooverphonic

I completely forget the joke I was trying to make when I posted that. He does have female vocalists accompany him though. At least he does in "Sexy Back" or whatever it's called.

Huh? There's maybe three songs by Blonde Redhead I could dance to, out of their entire discography. That last album had a few tracks you can dance to I guess, but all those tracks were sang by Amedeo.
Still, if you want to make a mix or playlist of dancey songs with female vocalist, Equus by Blonde Redhead is exactly what you're looking for. Just remember it's their wild card.

Here is the song:

Client.
Goldfrapp.

I had some other ideas, but I'm on the way out to class, so I can't listen to their tracks to be sure right now.

Lol, I actually second this one, I have a soft spot for them, and tend to love bopping around to them, and do silly dance moves that get weird looks from people....

I must have the wrong Rilo Kiley album...
