And if you're not dancers, you can stand and sway to anything, really, no?
I know. I'm just being weird about song content. So many slow songs are uber-romantic, and I'm not down for that for a father-daughter dance.
(I texted my brother to ask him what Rolling Stones songs to put on the playlist, and he replied "Cocksucker Blues." He's so predictable.)
I vote YES to "It's Raining Men," for sure.
For some reason, in my circle of friends, we all had "Paradise by the Dashboard Light" and the dance floor split into guys/girls singing it to each other. Is that a thing? Or was it just something we did?
Oh, "Rip This Joint" for Stones!
I'm pretty sure everyone would run out to the dance floor for "It's Raining Men."
The song is fucking fun. And it is an invitation to have a motherfuckin' walk off!
Now is when I wish we could use gifs here. [link]

Oh, absolutely. I'm just saying, if you like the song, don't worry as much about the rhythm.
My dad and I danced to "Moon River".
Advantage of being Jamaican--a Bob Marley song would always be appropriate. We can dance to oppress...I mean downpression!

Nope. My *family* does it at weddings. Including mom and dad. We all know the lyrics and have the moves down.
I can't remember what my dad and I danced to! That's awful.
