Song of the week by Flashrepublic - In the name of Dance

There has always been something special about Flashrepublic; you just have to listen to one of their songs to know they stand out from the crowd. Their sounds haunt your mind and follow your lips, soon enough you are singing along. The song I adore for this week is off the Album: Killer Moves; the song is “In the Name of dance”.   There is a reason it’s the albums opening tune, it sets you up for a listening feast.

“In the name of dance” is a song that perfectly explains how you should feel about dancing; it’s an expression of freedom.  We should do everything in our power to dance, and the stuff we do is explainable, is validated, because we did it in the name of DANCE.  The lyrics makes you think back at what you have done to just Dance, not even to mention what you will still do. It explains to those people that say youth is wasted on the young “they won’t be done until they had their fun”.  The world can try and stop you but you will do what ever you want because you are “alive to live your life”.  Life is there to live without regret without boundaries, so what will you do in the name of dance?

Their sound is described as “post-punk rock with Indie attitude” this becomes clear when you want to pump your fist in the air revolution style, while shaking your ass.  Tamara Dey has a very distinct voice and there is no way you can deny her talent.  The guitar leads you in with the drums suggesting to your heart that it needs to beat faster to keep up.

This song will really get you going, so on your way to a party/club/gig play it to get into the mood.
