Mooncrown11 Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Hey Mister DJ, put a record onI wanna dance with my baby {Do you like to boogie woogie?Do you like to boogie woogie?Do you like to boogie woogie?Do you like my acid rock?}Hey Mister DJ, put a record onI wanna dance with my babyAnd when the music startsI never wanna stopIt's gonna drive me crazyMusic, music, musicMusic makes the people come togetherMusic makes the bourgeoisie and the rebelsDon't think of yesterday and I don't look at the clockI like to boogie woogie, uh uhIt's like ridin' on the windAnd it never goes awayTouches everything I'm inGot to have it every dayMusic makes the people come together, yeahMusic makes the bourgeoisie and the rebelsHey Mister DJ{Do you like to boogie woogie?Do you like to boogie woogie?Do you like to boogie woogie?Do you like my acid rock?}Hey Mister DJ, put a record onI wanna dance with my babyAnd when the music startsI never wanna stopIt's gonna drive me crazyUh, uh, uhMusic makes the people come together, yeahMusic makes the bourgeoisie and the rebels{Do you like to boogie woogie?Do you like to boogie woogie?Do you like to boogie woogie?Do you like my acid rock?}{Do you like to boogie woogie?Do you like to boogie woogie?Do you like to boogie woogie?Do you like my acid rock? I think a lot of fans were concerned when they first read the lyrics to this song especially after the soul-searching lyrics on ROL . "Do you like to boogie woogie?" and "Hey Mr. DJ put a record on" didn't seem very thoughtful or ground-breaking. But then the song premiered and it all somehow made sense and was so instantly pure Madonna pop at its best. The song managed to sound both nostalgic and futuristic at the same time and was like nothing else on the radio at the time. This song is so anthemic and it's not hard to see why it became such a staple in her live shows. The song's message of "Music makes the people come together" is so simple yet so universal and true. Just look around at any concert or music festival and you see music as the universal language bringing people together from all walks of life - magically breaking down boundaries for a couple of hours. It has transcended beyond being a song about partying and having a good time and that is the mark of a true classic. Favorite Lyric: Touches everything I'm in, Got to have it every day Favorite Musical Part: The outro Favorite Vocal Part: The repeated "Music" before the first chorus Favorite Live Performance: DW Tour One Word That Sums Up This Song: Unity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flip The Switch Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 I agree. It was a dramatic transition from the ROL era. The lyrics and the title were too simple and it worked! thank God for this timeless gem. It was a wonderful ride with Mirwais on board and everybody loved it. A totally fresh sound with folk and electronica. Favorite Lyric: Don't think of yesterday and I don't look at the clock. Favorite Musical Part: The outro Favorite Vocal Part: acid rock! Favorite Live Performance: DWT performance One Word That Sums Up This Song: Funky! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick00 Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 I remember first hearing this on the radio after it was initially released. I remember thinking what a kick ass booty shaker after her releasing several mellower lead off singles during the nineties. This was no secret, you'll see, YMLM, or frozen. She was ready to dance again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocknrolla Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Scrolling down reading the lyrics that was my first thought too, wow, who would have ever thought this would have been a hit. I love this whole time period. I thought it was perfect to have an album like Music follow the ROL album. I never, ever hear it on the radio anymore though, does anyone else?

tasteinmen Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 I remember this being released and being so excited. The video was on MTV all the time but they'd only show half because of the strip club in the second half. I bought the single and helped it reach number 1!

Guest Peaches Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Amazing song. I remember driving up to college blasting the remixes on repeat. The DWT performance (and that video backdrop!) only make the song that much more iconic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Humberto77rj Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 I love this song so much! My 3rd favorite from M's catalogue. When i heard it on the radio, it was about 11 a.m and I could not stopo calling the station asking for it to play again. Hopefully, lots of people did it again because for several days it was the most played song on Radio sations in Rio. Singles are not sold in here so, i had to import mine to listen to it everyday 'till i got my copy of the album! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Peters1984 Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Madonna said that it is the sound of the future but not in my taste. Madonna had better songs in her career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IsaacHarris Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Love the entire track but the 'do u want to... boogie woogie' outro is the HIGHLIGHT. Madonna said that it is the sound of the future but not in my taste. Madonna had better songs in her career. You're shady. Quite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
