Let’s Dance

David Bowie

David Bowie composed this song at a time when he wanted to inject some funk and optimism into his music. Let’s Dance is a beautiful song about love and hope, with an upbeat sound and beautiful, uplifting lyrics. When we’re faced with the troubles of the world, Bowie exhorts us to put on our dance shoes and dance the blues away. It feels right to begin a new year on such an optimistic note.
