Don't you love our mediated, pre-formatted, stencil life! Real sport and direct personal interaction is bordering on vulgar already, as prophesied by various sci-fi writers. Bring on the 3-D environments! Upload me now!
Friends of mine have these dance-pad games and they are fun! They have apparently been using it for exercising too. It's a cool fad - fine, but why is it that playing with them gets boring fairly quickly for most, whereas say, throwing a ball around never does? - Too little novelty, to much predictability.
"It could be related to the environments in schools -- we sign lots of contracts with fast food chains and soft drink companies to promote the consumption of their products in schools, and we de-emphasize quality physical education."
-I'm getting a YART-attack<g> - I'm going somewhere called "outside" now - I'll report back later;-)

eta, at first I thought this is what your post was going to be about:
Rock it, don't stop it
Everybody get on the floor
Wake the party up
We about to get it on
Let me see you 1,2 step
I love it when you 1,2 step
Everybody 1,2 step
We about to get it on
I like this song.

Re: one two three - 06/17/05 10:54 AM
and who wrote that fine lyric?
Re: one two three - 06/17/05 12:16 PM
Ciara or Missy Elliot I'd assume. Missy produced this second monster hit for her. Ain't any on par her who are in the US big leagues, IMO. It's a pretty sparse "song" that focusses on dance rather than melody. Here's a project - try to find a melody in the charts - period. If you do, I'm betting it's a tried-and-true cover version.
Sound has utterly displaced music in the industry - good stuff!

Sound has utterly displaced music in the industry You know, I hadn't really taken in that I was never hearing any melodious songs, Chrispy (Lovely to see you again, btw.), but you're right, 'cept Backstreet's back <grin>. It's the rhythm that makes me like One-Two Step.
