Dynamite

Okay my own medicine today - I'm tired and I'm dragging - school has started and you know what - 5th grade is hard! lol

I need to shake myself awake this am!

This is the GS's favorite song.

Get up and dance with me and then tell me - after listening and dancing - and swinging your arms - did it brighten your day? It does mine. And which version did you like best?





"Dynamite"

I throw my hands up in the air sometimes,
Saying AYO! gotta let go!
I wanna celebrate and live my life,
Saying AYO! baby, let’s go!

I came to dance, dance, dance, dance
I hit the floor 'cause that's my plans, plans, plans, plans
I’m wearing all my favorite brands, brands, brands, brands
Give me space for both my hands, hands, hands, hands

Ye, ye

'Cause it goes on and on and on.......
And it goes on and on and on......

Yeah!

I throw my hands up in the air sometimes,
Saying AYO! gotta let go!
I wanna celebrate and live my life,
Saying AYO! baby, let’s go!

'Cause we gon’ rock this club,
We gon’ go all night,
We gon’ light it up,
Like it’s dynamite!
'Cause I told you once,
Now I told you twice,
We gon’ light it up,
Like it’s dynamite!

I came to move, move, move, move
Get out the way me and my crew, crew, crew, crew
I’m in the club so I’m gonna do, do, do, do
Just drop the phone, came here to do, do, do, do

Ye, ye

'Cause it goes on and on and on.......
And it goes on and on and on........

Yeah!

I throw my hands up in the air sometimes,
Saying AYO! gotta let go!
I wanna celebrate and live my life,
Saying AYO! baby, let’s go!

'Cause we gon’ rock this club,
We gon’ go all night,
We gon’ light it up,
Like it’s dynamite!
'Cause I told you once,
Now I told you twice,
We gon’ light it up,
Like it’s dynamite!

I’m gonna take it all out,
I’m gonna be the last one standing.
I’m over it all and I…
I’m gonna be the last one landing.
Cause I, I, I.. believe it,
And I, I, I .. I just want it all.....
I just want it all.....
I’m gonna put my hands in the air!
Hands, hands in the air!
Put your hands in the air!

I throw my hands up in the air sometimes,
Saying AYO! gotta let go!
I wanna celebrate and live my life,
Saying AYO! baby, let’s go!

'Cause we gon’ rock this club,
We gon’ go all night,
We gon’ light it up,
Like it’s dynamite!
'Cause I told you once,
Now I told you twice,
We gon’ light it up,
Like it’s dynamite!

first time i knew there are words to rap music, i can't understand what they say. not my kind of music, but if i have to pick it would be the girl singing. i like music with sweet harmony that soothes the soul. now if you want to dance, this would certainly get he feet moving

Cheri said...

You are probably one of the most positive up beat people I know. I think I can actually see you dancing around in your Pjs in the AM. LOL

Sally said...

I can't watch video's, but I'm dancin' with ya anyway!

Have a dynamite day!

Hugs!

Holly said...

Definately China's version! I spilled my coffee.

Eileen Astels Watson said...

Love the dancing hippo. Sadly, I guess in my Country we're not allowed to see the second version--at least that's what it says when I click on it. Canadians are deprived. :(

I like the first version, but I've heard it lots so I was hoping to hear the second to compare.

Hope your day goes well with the grade 5's.

Tanna said...

Okay... I'm gonna have to give that a try. LOL!

Changes in the wind said...

Yes, must confess I did...but I like the glitter that comes off her fingers the best.

Nancy said...

I'm with you girlfriend.....dancing away....

Linda @ A La Carte said...

My computer is running too slow to watch the videos...maybe I'll come back later and try. LOL...you are so funny my friend! Dynamite!

Lisa @ Two Bears Farm said...

Yes I was dancing! I am familiar with this song and I prefer versoin 2. I'm going to play it again when my son comes home.
Instant uplift! Thank you!

MadSnapper said...

I forgot to say, love the dancing hippo, she could be my sista

Unknown said...

I liked the second video. The first one thumped too much...lol!

Susan said...

Hello Sandie, little chickadee. I liked #2 the best.

Can you put my name in the hat for the photo book giveaway? Thanks.

Hope you are having a nice day! Love, Susan

Sush said...

Oh well it seems I'm the oddball I like Taio 's version! They both are wonderful I love almost any kind of music so this got my feet movin'!

Hugs~

Ginny Hartzler said...

Gosh, I really like this song!!! GS has good taste in music! I love dance music (or disco, as it used to be called, but apparently anyone who uses that term now is shot on sight). The two versions are very different, the first being more of a synth real dance song, and the second prettied up a bit. I don't think I can choose!!!

Liz Mays said...

I listen to that song a lot!

~*~ saskia ~*~ said...

Happy music, Sandie. Happy powerful post!
Enjoy the rest of your day, mine is coming to an end xxx

Wohoo I'm wide awake now after that cool song and dance lol and it's close to bed time for me. Phew
Think I will dance my self up to SnoozeVille in a bit.
Enjoy your Day!
Hugs x

Patti said...

Think how many calories could be burned by dancing to that for a half hour every morning!!! We'd all be skinny in no time.

Hugs to you,
Patti

Jill said...

Hi! Thanks so much for stopping by my blog. :) I'm excited to become your newest follower.

Michaele said...

Better than a shot of 5 hour energy. Love the little hippo too ; )

Pat MacKenzie said...

Wow - that really was energetic music - had my hands clapping with the first few bars. I couldn't hear the second version - it wasn't available in Canada.Bummer.

Sweet Tea said...

I really didn't want to dance today - but I DID. Great song, song, song, (shakin' my bootie like no one's lookin'. You're a hoot Ms. Chatty C!

Angela said...

I like the first original version best. I always turn the tv when the girl comes on the cartoon channels the kids watch.

Hugs,
Angela

Kim@stuffcould.... said...

Music!! Hope you feel better and yes I drag too with meds....or whatever

Betsy Banks Adams said...

Kids keep you young, Sandie, don't they????? Gads--I've never heard either song.. I'm so behind the times!!!!! ha

BUT--I'm dancing with you --in my heart!!!!!
Hugs,
Betsy

Mevely317 said...

Wooo-hoo :)
I'd like to have BOTH versions playing on my i-POD tomorrow --when I re-acquaint myself with the treadmill. (At least, that's the plan - ha!)

The Boston Lady said...

I say "yeahah" "YEAHAH"! Love that song. So fun! Hope that hurricane passes you by Sandie! We got lucky in FL. Good think since my daughter is there on her own while we goof off in LV - haha. Seriously I would have been so worried and stressed. Hope you are spared, but know that there are some people who will suffer. It's always a tough thing. Ann

Sharon said...

LOVE IT! And I think the dancing hippo is the perfect little angel to inspire us all to step up and go a little crazy!

AYO - gotta let go!!

Ann said...

Did I dance? Well I did if bobbing my head and tapping my foot while sitting in my chair counts. I didn't start until I listened to the second video though. Number 2 gets my vote.

Kerrie said...

Hi Sandie, Great minds do think alike! Dynamite is such a fantastic song - once you start singing you can't get the tune outta your head. You said year five is hard, oh boy, I think year three is hard! Have a fantastic day! All God's Best, Kerrie
